Taking away bad call for pass is so friggin' awesome.

Cuz I only call for passes when I'm open and I'd always get a bad grade for it. So frustrating.

And I hope they also addressed a pass being slightly deflected, but still received by who I intended to pass to not counting as an assist.

reading this it seemed to shot meter helps a little too much to the point where there's no need to learn shot releases. I hope this doesn't become a meter gazing game where you just trying to time the colors and the white line

That report is incorrect as far as every team having their own base set. Not sure how they got that but that is NOT correct. No way that could be done in the time we had.

Just to be sure, you talking about this ...

To help differentiate between teams after a set play breaks down, each one uses their true base set in NBA 2K15. Now when you play the Heat, which Jones jokes doesn't truly have a big (sorry Bosh), they will run a four-out one-in set. The Spurs, on the other hand, will have three-out two-in base set.

This is great news, it is now tailored on a per team bases ... now I hope we can edit that, specially to account for roster movement or even change of coaches or philosophy.

THANKS Da-Czar.

2KU has been enhanced with videos as well as the practice mode. Cover athlete Kevin Durant and other players have lent their voice to offer instructions.

Practice mode is back and enhanced, now lets hope this means Scrimaging on Leagues and practice plays are also back.

If so, that is sad, but understand it ... hopes for a 2K16 implementation ?

That's the opposite of what Mike Wang said

Re: Game Informer: 44 Things We Know about NBA 2K15

that's exactly the reason this doc thing is happening, and exactly the reason I'm losing favor with the mode.

I got hooked on my career precisely because it was a career simulator, not because I wanted to play a basketball-themed RPG. Is this really what the masses who play MyCareer every year actually want??

I was shocked by how much people liked the next gen version of myCareer last year because it was a story mode. You had to fued with Ellis no matter what. People liked that so 2k just gave them another story.

Re: NBA 2K15 - 44 More Details About the Game

They made next gen mycareer with youtube in mind. That mode fits youtube perfectly.

That MyCareer first scene we've seen of 2K15... It ressembles what Smoove used to do for his MyPlayer's intro videos back in 2K11.

[Cabish]

They are easing the grand theft auto crowd with the story mode there,maybe it should be more mass effect lol like with branching based on decisions,(who am I kidding ) I hate this crap,!!!! Gimme ultra realism I read if wasting time on frrrrrrrr like this.

Re: NBA 2K15 - 44 More Details About the Game

If people really have an issue with the story based MyCareer, why don't you use the upgraded create a player and MyLeague to your advatage?

If you really want things to be realistic, start a 30-team MyLeague and place your created self in the draft pool (or straight on a team if you'd like to choose your destination), come draft time see what team selects you and then just start your career that way. When you play a game set your preferred position to whatever you are when you're on the court and then control the team when you're off, you can realistically progress your skills as well if you have the discipline and then have a hand in all transactions involving you. It's a lot of work, but if you really want the barebones non-story driven MyCareer, it's what you're going to have to do to get the most realism out of it.

Re: NBA 2K15 - 44 More Details About the Game

MyCareer is fiction/fantasy is not the real NBA, Doc could have gotten fired or chose to leave the Clippers for any number of reasons. Theirs no guarantee any coach will be with their same team the following year.

Re: Game Informer: 44 Things We Know about NBA 2K15

yeeeahhh but youre a minny fan. no diss lol. but successful head coaches shouldnt be ousted by doc rivers cuz 2k said so

Are you trying to say Flip isn't a successful head coach?

[alkamist]

So is he going to keep following u if you ask for a trade because after I win yr 1 I like to be traded and try to win with a new team...

I personally didn't really enjoy the Jackson Ellis story whatsoever. I just put up with it because I like the MyCareer experience.

My main issue with these story modes is that it has next to zero replay value. With the news that looks like you're shoe horned into not getting drafted and Doc Rivers ALWAYS joining your team in the 2nd season, it has really turned into a "play it once to enjoy the story then never play it again" kind of thing. To me, that is very disappointing.

However, I'm very excited about this part which I think a lot of people are overlooking:

The new MyCareer mode lets you skip games if you prefer to move more quickly through seasons.

Not having to sit and play 50 games a season a because they're all "Rivalry" games is huge to me.

Re: NBA 2K15 - 44 More Details About the Game

If i join the GSW, i'm expecting them to fire Steve Kerr for Doc Rivers? I don't think Doc would join GS in real life after the whole Draymond Green and Andrew Bogut incident.
