Re: NBA 2K16 Gameplay Blog With Da_Czar

This is, for me, the core element that has been missing.

It is really a game changer. It greatly raises the ceiling of the CPU's ability to "play basketball" It's ability to mimic concepts like intimidation, cockiness, disdain, etc., will liberate the game from the sterility and sameness that would often plague so many contests.

EXACTLY! Sounds like they've even thrown a bit of "human error" in there so they (cpu) don't play/react perfect all the time either!

Awesome stuff czar! Where to start?! Absolutely amazing what each guy did in 1 year cycle. Every area you guys just killed it!

I have not read the thread yet as I actually just now got to finish your blog. If it's been answered I apologize.

Can we adjust Freelance during a timeout now?
Will freelance offense when chosen now take place in that possession and not the next?
I'm assuming you can remove plays just like you can add them in a roster update?
How many set plays does each team have in their playbook?
Has anything new changed as far as which set plays the CPU will call and why?
As a user do we have any say in picking which plays over others?
Can we save playbooks for quick online play? (I heard yes for online leagues)
How exactly does the new pnr mechanic work?
What coaching traits or team sliders are available or are editable?


And absolutely ecstatic practice plays is back! Love that we can decide which side to set the pnr as I brought that to wang 3 years ago and he liked it. Cool it's in and perfect for side pnr especially on ice. This could be the year I have a online and offline league and they could both be equally as fun! Can't wait to see the CPU coaching AI as well as player! **** I can't wait for absolutely everything! This sounds to be the GOAT! Having you and OG on this team feels good knowing you guys got our backs! I can't even imagine where you guys will go and where this game will be by 2k20! Just wow!

I am very excited for both offensive and defensive ai advances. It was a long time in the making but I do feel like a real improvement between last gen and current gen is afoot.

The only question I have about all this sweet delicious stuff is: did it all make it into MyCareer?

If so, I am completely satisfied with what I read.

I saw this question asked a few times but not answered. Will all this translate to MyCareer. Because the A.I. team and opponent usually play like a sack of rocks. It's usually just a broken mode to play. It is no fun to play 1v5 in this mode.

""For NBA 2K16 we taught the A.I. -- through a ball movement module -- how to play fundamental team basketball.

We gave the A.I. side top side ball movement principals. We also tied tempo into when a team would move from the ball movement module to looking for a scoring opportunity.""



Hoping each year we see these types of gains in CPU play

Melo doing work was more like Melo shooting bricks, but the movement was a thing of beauty

That pull-up over Joe Johnson though......

Big Ups to Da Czar and the Scott OG for the AI developments over the last 12 months...I remember when 2K15 came out Czar said it was just the beginning (because of his shortened dev cycle) but I would never have imagined this much!

I'm super stoked either way but if someone can confirm that MyCareer will play with all of this intelligence then i'll be like:

To the NBA 2k Staff... .


There's the NBA, then there's NBA 2k, then far far away there's all those other basketball ball games lumped together (NBA Live, NBA Jam, NBA Unrivaled, NBA Ballers, etc.)


It isn't even close anymore...

Re: NBA 2K16 Gameplay Blog With Da_Czar

How do y'all like Hardens sig shot? We saw the pull up in OG's blog and the standing here

It looks solid. Though, if we're comparing how close the jumpers looks to real life Steph wins by a mile.

Re: NBA 2K16 Gameplay Blog With Da_Czar

Read everything and I'm speechless...bruh if everything fits together how I'm envisioning it this will be the greatest basketball, no sports...heck maybe the best game I ever played period.

2K15 frustrated me but I still played it every day. Game ain't even out yet and I can see it's so much better...my life's over on the 25th.
