I wonder if teams can run the triangle like this

Can we still select 4 out 1 in 3 out 2 in and space the floor from the d pad czar ?

I love what I see in this video. What a vast improvement over last year. The graphical upgrade is even evident, with the shiny court issue having been addressed. Very nice.

Btw the AI did some serious cooking in that video. Never seen before.

Me too!!

Still, very solid video. I agree that playing the spurs on 2K14 just felt wrong. Hope it will feel far better in 2K15, seems very promising

Love the different models this year. D.Rose isn't a hulk on the court. You have more slim guys, average etc.

I know when I usually say things like this people pass it over, but the gameplay team has created a gem this year. The gameplay is the best in series history and it's not even close.

Great video Czar.

The spurs motion offense is there. . In the game.

Think about that for a second.

... and you don't have to turn it on. It's just there already.

This is Awesome

I've been saying it man. This year feels like 2K11 did man. This does nothing to kill that vibe even down to the Czar/Sage greatness all we needed was some Kanye "Power" in there to get even more hype.

Is that offense tied to the Spurs no matter what, or is it tied to Pop? Just curious for years down the road in MyGM and what not.

This is what Czar said in another thread about him releasing a video today:

I love it, man. Under-promise and over-deliver. Man drops a 7-minute video but says "don't get too hype." Humility. A lost art nowadays.

Beautiful...just beautiful

I saw a lot of good things in there. If every team really can run freelance like their real-life counterparts, it's going to be a lot of fun. Having intelligent off-ball movement will go a long way.

I loved seeing Duncan pass the ball back out after getting an offensive rebound. I don't think I saw that happen even once in 2k14; they always went right back up with it. Hopefully we see teams resetting more often after an offensive board.

I also loved seeing the CPU take some mid-range shots off the dribble. The one from Ginobili was beautiful. As was the double cross pull-up from Parker out of the corner. Great to see the CPU finally use the space between the key and three point line to take some shots lol.

As awesome as most of it was, I didn't like that the CPU didn't really take advantage of the mismatch of Dirk guarding Parker at 5:58. Parker did get an open midrange shot, but it didn't feel like they really recognized the mismatch; more like he just saw that there was an open shot.

Czar, can you comment on that, or will we hear more about that in the coming days? It was only one clip, so clearly not a good sample size, but something that really bugged me last year.

I love how the AI can punish you for cheating on defense now.

Speaking of defense, the AI looks to be much improved on that end as well. The Spurs defended the pick n roll beautifully. Kawhi stayed home on the shooter in the corner (as he should), and Splitter rotated down properly. Good stuff.

I'm gonna burn the reload button of this youtube video =)

I see that James Harden step back jumper at the end I was wondering when this was going to be added to the game!
 
# 39 RumbleCard @ 09/26/14 01:43 PM
Just for clarity is this a default offense based on the coach's gameplan or an offense set/play that you select in the same way you select a play during a game?

Basically how is this offense "style" chosen? Is it determined by who is coaching the team? An offense scheme page? Selected during gameplay?

How can it be changed? Obviously you would to run something different as your team evolves.

But yeah...this is a huge improvement. Looks like the days of redundant, predictable and lazy offball movement are gone. Excellent work and excellent presentation.
