eSports Coming to NBA 2K16 2K Pro-AM Early 2016, Huge Cash Prize & Trip to NBA Finals

Yeah this is a good idea in theory, but unfortunately when it comes to this game mode and myPark NBA dropped the ball because there are still players in the game that are 7'4 who can dribble, with speed that is just not possible. So as I said seems like a cool idea but this is not a game of skill its people who create ridiculous characters then buy the VC to have an unrealistic player.

I still don't get why people want REC center back so bad. 2K just needs to add rep to Pro-Am but I don't see why it's a demand for rec when it's walk on.

Because it has the same atmosphere as park, except with 5vs5 games in an actual basketball gym. You can see who is streaking, who plays with who, interactions, etc. You could recruit from the rec center. Even with rep, I don't think ProAM would be as good as rec because the mode is disconnected from park.

With walk on and ProAM in general you can't even see who you are going to play until you get locked into the game. No fun getting locked into a game and having the other team quit out before half time because they are getting smashed/knew they were gonna get smashed.

They just needed to add two squad spots to the courts and it would have been all sweet.

I still don't see how REC is better than either of the ProAm modes w/ rep. You can recruit from Park games or even the walk on games; you'll be playing w/ randoms anyways. You don't have to sit around waiting for games.

I understand it's your preference, but I honestly do not think any of those things warrants all the demand about REC besides adding rep. But to make everyone happy, they should just make walk on REC and add two squad spots like you said. And we'll still have Proam/Crew. But I think all those modes should have REP. You shouldn't be dominating in ProAm and then when you decide to play Park a rookie 1 looking like a bum and etc.

I'm sure you don't have to sit around waiting for games, but I imagine you live in America. In my country you have to wait upwards of 20-30 minutes to get a walk on game and that's during peak hours. Peak hours last year on rec I was getting getting games constantly. I've only ever seen more then 1 game going on in the walk on this year and I've played atleast 50 walk on games. It's sad how empty the rec center looks this year.

Last year I could go onto the American servers and play as my point guard with Americans and not get any lag and the guys I played with didn't lag either. This year I can't do that.

It doesn't help that the majority of people who I used to play with last year rarely want to play it because of no rep.

How many people are running out to spend $ to max out their player now?

When you can pay to be better, and 3/4th of the controls can be done with one button, it is not Esports.

I laugh these dudes crying that people will spend money blah blah blah. You can only spend money to 88 ovr and then you have to play to 99 and all badges. Just stop crying because I see no difference between a person who has a job and spends $20 to buy vc due to no time to play VS someone who sits at home all day and grinds the game to get same results.

Just stop!!! If 2K allowed you to buy your player to 99 and all badges then I would agree.

This x1000. So tired of players abilities to run around the court endlessly doing a hundred crossovers along the way and when they are tired, just step back, fade out of bounds nothing but net 3 or drive to the basket for the between the legs, behind the back dunk with their 7 '3 center. Just eliminate that junk and I can honestly live with the scripted animations, out of bounds wall, disconnects from game, and inconsistent play as my 90 3pt rated sg. Goes 0/5 with near perfect releases, while the opposing sg 65 goes 4/4 with every shot heavily contested.

Sounds interesting on top but 2K isn't a skill game, heck even CoD isn't a skill game. Nice idea but before putting up big money into the game first make sure that game is skill related, i see often dudes in park cheesin' when we play for freaking VC and now imagine cheese frequency and strength when you gon play for real money.

The competition looks good for the esports league I went into pro am for the first time in almost two months we wrecked first 4 teams badly with our incomplete players we ended up with a 90% win percentage then ended up facing a strong #70 something ranked team and got spanked since we didn't have enough scoring or size to get the win. I know now that I need to play with my huge cheesy (he don't miss) center and everybody else needs to bring their best every game to compete against the best talent in the pro am.

Yep I faced a top 10 team and we went to 2OT. They won. They had 2 7'3 centers , two 6'2 PGs/SGs and 1 SF who looked about 6'6 . They played really well almost like the CPU on HOF. My squad just don't make the extra pass enough or take smart enough shots. They settle way to often . Probably why I'm hesitate to try this. We were a top 80 team at 1 point but we stopped playing . Every top 100 team we face comes down to OT

So, the stream still isn't working for me.

Sounds like a good idea. I actually was talking about this about a month ago when finding ways to make Pro-Am more competitive. I'm interested in seeing how this all works, though. My team is like 104-36 right now and was ranked #148, but lost 2 straight games due to lag/teammates disconnecting and back to like #250.

We've played some really good teams in Pro-Am, but most of the guys we play just don't seem to know how to play the game.
