NBA 2K15 Gameplay Video - Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

[poloelite]

I met and hung out with LD2K and Ronnie at last year's Gamestop Expo for pretty much the whole day, the homie JWill was with us too. We gave them criticism and feedbavk. They answered every question and they were open and honest about everything they could talk about at the time. This post is a response to the person who suggested no one would be critical of the game in front of the creators.

Yeah but this is why I made the quip last week about info release.

Those people saw the game talked to you guys about it etc. ......

It's been much less revealed here online and a ton of "its coming soon" remarks, but people are still in the dark a bit.

So when you take this long you stand the chance of getting one upped by regular Dave and the likes with crappy footage.

Got to give it to davez and leftos who revealed quite a bit and people were excited to hear the details.

Beyond my league and shaq and ernie people don't know much else really.

Exactly!!! We are only subject to cell phone pics and assumptions because the marketing is so slowwwwww. For a major release 2k tends to depend on cheap marketing tactics and free publicity from twitter and youtube personalities

The on the move pass catching animations have looked terrible on next gen so far.

Yeah, this always bothered me.


I just wish animations overall were just more fluid.


Anybody know if the players to court size are accurate? I know many in the past have said that the court looks too small.

It looks like Westbrook has a mini high top fade...

If I'm honest with my self, i'd say it's pretty close to real life(the court could be a tad bit wider). If the players themselves actually moved out the way and ran plays with any semblance of urgency like real life I don't think we'd really have a problem though.

My only issue with the video is why was Anderson V. standing on top of the key next to Kyrie Irving just standing around, he should have set a pick.

I've always asked for a automatic pick whenever you dribbled next to a big. I'm guessing they didn't implement it because it sounds like it could be exploited.

How much different do people want the game to feel? 2K14 looked good and played good. The NBA looks more or less the same each year, the way the game plays.
I want to see more and more animations per year but I never expect the game to look radically different because the foundation is still very very good.

Only thing i hated was when they crowded up on the 3pt line everytime that happens one of the off ball defenders swipe ball and usually gets the steal

2K14 played good.

bruh, you playin the same game as the rest of us?

@goff, i meant people who play it early not work on it.

its one thing to work on the game yourself and judge it...its another to get people who will want to find every problem and pick it apart

Thats actually pretty realistic.

The timing maybe, but not the way they are just standing there. The one player called for the foul will argue and the others will move to their spots (slowly, but still moving, not just staring into the great abyss).

Hard to ever watch any sports gameplay videos that are leaks or gameplay from expos or whatever because I just can't stand watching human H2H matchups. It's usually not the ideal representation of the game, or advancements in AI etc, especially with how I play the game which is typically tweaked to be as much of a simulation as possible.

This game was solid last year so I'm getting it either way (and I believe solid basically every year), but it's dumb to hold your expectations to any of these vids. Especially without audio and being controlled by people who skip through everything and aren't sim players by any means. Grains of salt.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned it, but bruh...The animated logos are SOOOOO ESPN. I saw them going that direction last year with the 3d logos but now it's damn near a one-to-one recreation of the logo splash screens ESPN uses. It's a bit weird seeing as the game screams TNT everywhere else though.

That would be I. And I stick by my comment. Of course people gonna give their opinions etc. But nobody would actually say to the creators (yes I know they not the literal creators guys) that the game looks and plays exactly like last year. I've been to different events and that's what I've seen with my own eyes, and have done myself I hated a game before, but when one of the companies representatives asked me how I liked it, I immediately said I like it a lot! Just look how people reacted To the LD2K comment, immediately guys commented back to him with, people just complain to complain types of comments etc. All I'm saying is sometimes when a developer or a rep for that developer around, people tend to say mostly positive things, which isn't wrong or a bad thing, just my observation.

My point must have been missed. Or you refuse to see it. So I will lay it out for you. IMO it is quite difficult to come to the conclusions you are coming to from the 1 video we have been shown. You VERY WELL might be right on ALL your criticisms.

My suggestion. Wait for more videos, or ideally play it, at a friends, at BestBuy, however (assuming you are on the fence still about buying it.) If you still feel the same way..post to your hearts content, and I will gladly read said posts and use your comments to decide if I will buy this or not (I skipped 2k14)


If was a developer, I would be driven nuts buy these type of comments when people haven't even held the game in their hands.


I love reading comments from people who actually have the games before I buy. I hate reading comments based on one crummy video. All I am saying. And you will probably disagree with me, because that is what people do on the internet. They argue. You will tell me you have spotted many of things that are still obviously "broken" or same as last year. to that I say, give it a chance. You could be wrong. Assuredly stating something based on so little information is risky.
