    2k15 vs 2k16

    So, give me a reason to not buy 2k16 and stick with 2k15.

    I am a My League/GM type of guy. I don't really play online or My Player mode. I like that there are more historic teams this year. The graphics look pretty much the same and I enjoyed the heck out of 2k15.

    I just want to know from the community if it's worth me shelling out 60 bucks for this years game.

        They also added features to. MyLeague like being able to have target players Untouchable players/draft picks. Scanned shoes if you're a shoe guy.

          There this thing where players ask and sign low contract. Like al horford signing for 3 years 27 million and Drummond signing for under 10 a year. If they fix that it's the best game ever.

            Imo it's worth it.

            in terms of Myleague and myGm - Progression/Regression is x1000 times better, young players now aren't all becoming 90+ with 90+ shooting and players who are stars but not superstars aren't becoming terrible by the time they are 33-34. Players peak and decline all at the same time.

            The ability to be able to hire coaches from other teams, promote from within, lose coaches to other teams/positions adds a nice little detail

            Sim stats feel seem to look much better than last year for fringe all-stars

            The addition of advanced stats for teams is a nice addition as well

            The ability to relocate franchises and upload your own custom logos adds a really nice touch to do whatever you want.

            The only real issue I have with the mode is players don't sign for enough but that issue is being looked at by 2K.

            In terms of game play, as much as people complain about the game there isn't much wrong with it. It feels much tighter and better paced than last years. The pick and roll on offense is improved and much easier too run imo. The free lance offense is awesome to run. Plays break less than last year.

            The only real issue I have with the game is help defense don't always rotate or it over rotate leaving a guy wide open that shouldn't be open.

            It was easily worth it to me but if your enjoying 2K15 that much maybe just wait for 2K16 too drop to like 30 around New Years and get it then

              its more than worth it ...especially if you dont' play online. gameplay within the franchise is superb. and the graphics are not mostlly the same. the body scans and lighting are more than just an add on.

                MyLeague is light years ahead in 2k16...

                But to be real, my gut is I like the gameplay better in 2k15. Just can't get in a rhythm in 2k16 yet. I'm hoping experience/patch helps this.

                Mostly this is due to the ability to get by a man unless you "sniper" him with a move. The ability to get a step and ride a guy around the edge is basically gone for me in 2k16, and it's been a bummer.

                  Re: 2k15 vs 2k16

                  Seriously can anybody tell me why they took out defensive shading? Like if my opponent is right handed and just wants to drive baseline why cant I shade him to the middle like i used to? Even with 'myplayer'?

                  It wont let me post a thread on here.

                    I'd wait until price goes down and enjoy 2K15 a little more. Ppl throw that best sports game ever made around all the time. Game need patches to fix a lot of the problems first before I recommend someone paying full price for it.

                      Wait until Black Friday to cop the game man. You'll save yourself 30 bucks by doing this. The game still needs a few updates/patches to run like it should so enjoy 15 in the meantime.

                        Sound advice. The glaring issue with transition defense for both human and cpu can drive you up the wall. I mean, if you can hold out, then you should. Which honestly is the way to go with just about every title, especially sports. Rarely is a game going to come out the box, firing on all cylinders ready to go. I would wait. It's a good game, but if you're sim head, and want the most tedious aspect of the sport represented, then wait until it's patched up a little more.

                          No reason not to buy.

                            Totally worth the buy; I picked it up on Early Release and have fallen in love with it something fierce. I'm a MyLeague/MyGM guy as well and MyLeague is downright addicting.

                            That said, the AI trade logic in both modes is complete lunacy. You will see Andre Drummond, Derrick Favors, and Derrick Rose traded often (as well as other players that fit that profile of someone in the 80s with big contracts). The CPU overvalues its own draft picks and players, as has been stated, sign for way too little.

                            Both things are being looked at by the devs, but I doubt we get it fixed before patch #3 drops sometime in November (it has been stated by multiple devs that that's when the big patch hits).

                            If you haven't gotten then game yet, I say wait till Black Friday prices start rolling out. You could pick this up cheaper and likely have the big patch waiting for you, as opposed to you waiting on it. It's totally worth the buy and the best 2K game ever (beating out NFL 2K5 for me, which I never thought would happen) but it still needs work in some areas.
                            Any comments are welcome.

                              2k15 vs 2k16

                              A lot of these guys called 2K15 the worst of all time AFTER the patches...so you gotta take the reactions with grain of salt ether way....lol

                              Your obviously still enjoying it though.....so if $ is the issue then I'd keep on playing until X Mas when the price lowers...

                              If you got the loot it's without question an upgrade....especially in your modes of interest...
