Just found out that there's no tattoos again in Create a Player. That kinda sucks, but is there a Create a Team option offline? If so, is it as good as pro am team creation?

In 2K15, when you'd go up for a running dunk, the player actually slowed down while going up. This year they stay at the same fast speed. Much better now.

I can't find the 2000's historic teams! I got the early tip off for ps3. I know I'm not the only one with this problem. I know somebody know something. Let me know Asap!

After the 2K servers bumped me on and off for about an hour I finally got my Myplayer face ready for MyGM. Looks good.

Got the game on X1 this year because of more roster makers over on that side of things. Although I do miss my PS4 controller.

Now on to the games I played. It was on Allstar/Sim.

T'Wolves vs Spurs: Man was this a crazy game and Pop was moving Kawhi around like crazy. I had to adjust right off the bat. Kawhi was on Rubio from the start so Pop wanted to kill the head of the snake and shut down any offense. I proceeded to feed Kmart and get Wiggins some post ups on Parker. I held LA in check for a quarter. But he came alive in the second scoring 12 points. Kawhi moved to Kmart and slowed him down a littlle and Wiggins and KAT started heating up. So what did Pop do? He kept Kawhi on Kmart, moved Green on Wiggins and then bodied up KAT with Timmy so the young guns couldn't do a damn thing. Halftime was 52-54 Spurs. I got destroyed after halftime getting behind by 9 and the Spurs never gave me a real chance to come back. I outplayed the starters but the depth of that team and LA is what killed me. T'Wolves bench not named LaVine did nothing for me in this game and I lost by 8.

Pacers vs Cavs: Oh man I wasn't ready for this game lol. I was the Pacers and Cleveland just ran through me. I shut down Bron in terms of scoring and held Kyrie in check but this team was pulling down boards and hitting open shots due to me over playing Bron and Kyrie. Smith, Mozy, and Shump were just on this game. Granted I played PG and the 4. I like Miles Turner in this game. Kid is going to be special in 2K. And if this game is any indication. PG won't be spending a lot of time at the 4 this year lol.

Hornets vs WarriorsEnded the night with my boys vs my boy Steph and company. I have to say I like the Hornets in this game because of the defensive focus OG put in this year. The length of Batum gave Thompson fits when he tried to catch and shoot or simply pull up. MKG was all over the place on defense. Marvin as my stretch four gave Big Al some much needed room to breathe. Kemba was solid. But then the Warriors started running and when they got past MKG and Batum it was either a layup or a trip to the line. One thing I have gathered from my three games is that you might out play the starters from the other team. But if your bench doesn't give you anything you are done against elite teams.

Hoooly crap standing dunks are like life this year. Big men feel right.

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Might be bit of a stupid question, but I have a question about offense selection. During the game, the offense/action are both set to default. So if for example I'm using the Hawks, are the default offense/action just a standard option for each, or are they both default set to best fit the Hawks offense already?

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Stanley Johnson hair is my only concern. His frizzed out hair does not show up while playing but on cut scenes and free throws it does..

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Offensive rebounding needs work, teams that should be killing it on the glass online just dont.

Played 4 full games now and gameplay is a thing of beauty, without having to go crazy adjusting sliders. Sim setting works great with adjusting fouls up to get more non shooting fouls, and lowering the passing accuracy donw to get more TO, other than probably a few tweaks here and there and it will be near perfect.

Saw slider sharing is back, glad to see finally that added back.

All Star with sim settings is really giving me a tough time, which I like, that's the way its suppose to be, ALL Star setting was like this for me, quite a challenge, so glad to see that's back, and I hope you don't mess with it this year, no matter how many online people cry about it.

YOu can really tell the difference between good players and bad ones.

Really as far as gameplay goes I cant find anything negative really. Probably the 1 thing negative is picks don't seem quite strong enough, and it seems hard to get by your player because the pick man don't get close enough to him. Maybe its just me not being very good, but that's my feel on that so far, felt that way last year too for me.

I do wish with fake players on classic teams you would let us fully edit them, as in changing skin color. Would make fixing all the missing player much easier IMO.

Are the foul sliders working better than 2k15? Any chance to reach sim numbers of fouls this year?

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Just got beat in a Superstar sim game, Lakers vs Celtics where I gave up 46% shooting, which is garbage in today's NBA. Last year the Lakers let opponents shoot... 46% from the field. Hibbert had 4 blocks, but he fouled out late in the game. I think that he may foul out of every game in MyLeague, until I let him walk after the first year.

Best menu ever! nice, clean, sleek, simple, but at the same time high tech, just my style, and I love how the moved the camera options to the main part of the pause screen so we don't have to dig for it.

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Some quick impressions

Good
- Teams take 3s instead of just barrelling in. On that same note, the PGs don't take all the shot. Played against the Hornets and got bodied by Big Al.

- I like the number of foul shots this year.

- Defense in general is better. You mess up, you pay for it but also you lock in and it works. Lots of blocks.

- i like the different pass buttons

- Mismatches matter.

Bad (there are a lot but most of nitpicks)

- The highlights not working is inexcusable. Played on 8 minutes and still lost them by halftime. Luckily, the actual highlights suck so its not a big loss but it does make the game feel..empty. More so since they advertised the "awesome" halftime show. I also noticed that the ingame highlights are less too overtime.

- Perhaps too many blocks lol. Had 15 with the Magic

- Greg Anthony kinda sucks...sounds like he is sleepwalking through it at times. Commentary overall feels stitched together at times.

- Might be a slider thing but I still don't like how sometimes you NEED a screen to get by dudes. Kemba isn't locking down Wroten off the bounce like Prime Gary Payton. Sliders did help

- The substitution, playcalling controls are garbage

The Ugly

- yo....yo. The Sixers are going to be awful this year. I will need this game more than ever lol. ;_;

So far so good tho. Some slider fixes here and there will help. And most of the flaws (based off of 2 and 3/4 games) are nitpicks. but they do begin to add up. Still they should be fixable or at least won't break the game for me...

Good jerb 2k...for now
