i want and try to enjoy this game
...but it has me pulling my hair out (literally reach for it, start to pull and then contain myself).. teammates are dumber than all hell, game controls and player movements are so clunky it's just ridiculous... half the time i'm trying to pull something off i end up as the godfather part 3 yelling "THAT IS NOT WHAT I WANTED"!. i don't know how many "are you kidding me's" per game i average but it has to be goat level. paint defense is completely non-existent even with fine tuned settings it's just not there AT ALL.

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
I felt the same way but now learned a lot from the flaws while playing the game a lot. I'm looking for certain things to happen on offense and defense and hurry and make icon switches or adjustments to make up for the dumb AI. Nothing I can do with the cheesy AI shooting jumpers from 2ft away in traffic or dribbling in traffic and not losing the ball like the user would. Or my players juggling with rebounds and the CPU just snatching them out of my players hands.
I feel like playing MyTeam Domination keeps me sane since i'm forced to play arcade like and just have fun.Last edited by apollooff320; 10-19-2015, 03:02 AM. -

i hear you on every one of those points man. i'll try approaching the game from a different angle i guess, thanks for your reply.I felt the same way but now learned a lot from the flaws while playing the game a lot.

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
I do feel this way at times. Mainly:
-dumb teammates/ai
-not doing what you intended/passing to wrong players
-clunkyness
I'd suggest downing a couple beers before 2k
I'm being serious. Otherwise u cant look past the annoying parts that stress you out. It's funny everyone online over their mics bitches at 2k too. "COME ON 2K REALLY??" "I just got 2kd"

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
lolz...I would be one of them. I see so many ppl are frustrated this year more then ever. This has nothing to do with playing like it's 2K15...it's just a lot BS going on now.I do feel this way at times. Mainly:
-dumb teammates/ai
-not doing what you intended/passing to wrong players

i want and try to enjoy this game
Just remember that your playing a game....it's meant to be fun....do what you need to do to make it fun. The game isn't going to change much, it's up to you to adjust.....for some that's playing on a lower level, changing sliders etc. You spent $80, might as well get everything you can out of it.
Just don't get into the cycle of of looking for every flaw, studying every replay, flipping out over every imperfection, blaming everything on the game or you'll end up miserable/whiny like some folks around here......not a good look
Good thing is at least your trying to enjoy the game....wish you the best....and hey, after you try all of the above...the game may simply not be for you, it happens....but I hope you find a way to enjoy and get your money's worth
Happy gaming.

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
It's been that way ever since next gen. The "clunkiness". I wouldn't say more are frustrated than ever, I think it's the same frustration as 14 and 15.

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
I'm starting to be with him though but from a different view. I'm almost done playing the CPU. The nba is all about double teams and rotations, trying to force guys that can't shoot beat them. I was so looking forward to seeing this in this game after hearing hype about this game. No nba team would let bigs beast and feast all game like what happens in this game.Just remember that your playing a game....it's meant to be fun....do what you need to do to make it fun.

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
I have such a love hate for this game.
My park can be great and pro am can be great and then just when I think that I'll go on a run where either my player can't hit wide open shots or dribble or dunk or hit layups or really anything while everyone else is doing fade away threes and dribbling around like chickens with their heads cut off. Then top that off with some moron telling me I suck and calling me a cracker while dropping the n word like it's going out of style because he had 18 points and I had 2 even though he never passed the ball once. I also for the life of me can't understand why my 6"3 pg is consistently guarding a center in My park. and in pro am I think I've got to play pg twice in about 30 games. I've been power forward more than I've been a pg.
When that happens I'll usually go to my league which can also be great then I'll have a game where seemingly the things I love break. Freelance offense is awesome but it's broken for me more than it works. Too often the motions take way too long to initiate if they do at all. The one I love the most is when the CPU diagram shows a teammate is going to cut but instead he runs back and forth like he's humping a doorknob while the shot clock runs out.
When that happens I usually then play mycareer which can be fun and then the cutscenes between games happen. I honestly love the idea of stories in sports games but the story in this game is just bad. Horrible to be honest. Like real people would never act that way. And man when they show your dude talking in those clips between the first and second quarter I cringe. Its just so badly acted.
Even after all that though I keep coming back because when it is good it's fantastic I just wish it was more consistent.2016 NLL Champion Saskatchewan Rush

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
Yeah man there's so many glaring issues with this game. Idk how people keep denying it. Ace is a joke and it was suppose to be such a big deal. Yes they change pressure on shooters and have Kawai and Klay guard every pg but what else does it do? Where's the nba rotations that was promised. I jus don't get how people aren't more upset about these things and the things you pointed out? It's suppose to be a sim game correct?Comment

Re: i want and try to enjoy this game
I know we talked before but I could not find the posts in my history. Anyways, with regards to ACE, are you playing with play-calling enabled and are you choosing points of emphasis?Yeah man there's so many glaring issues with this game. Idk how people keep denying it. Ace is a joke and it was suppose to be such a big deal. Yes they change pressure on shooters and have Kawai and Klay guard every pg but what else does it do? Where's the nba rotations that was promised. I jus don't get how people aren't more upset about these things and the things you pointed out? It's suppose to be a sim game correct?
My understanding is that enabling these will neuter the ACE systems on offense and defense respectively.
I see more ACE activity than you seem to see. When I start using Kobe too much, I have the ai switch assignments on him... usually the PF in the computer's rotation but sometimes the center. I see the help rotating on the baseboard and in the half-court sets.
Where I agree there needs some refinement is on fastbreak coverage, especially early and on quick inbound plays. The first issue (fastbreaks) is something of a legacy issue and this year it is exposed more because of the improved offensive fast break abilities.
The second issue (inbound fast plays) I wonder if it was because the defensive team (ScottOG's) didn't have time to adjust things... If I remember correctly, Da_Czar said he put some specialty plays in last moment and it seems to me these are the ones being exploited.
Edit: As far as changes in sets and such, we can't expect these changes until the season really begins. Heck, teams like the Lakers still have 3 or 4 roster spots in question and pre-season was really used to test the options available... that and 2K's guys are going to need a bit of time to break down the actual plays used.Last edited by Taer; 10-20-2015, 06:21 AM.Comment
