Well, well, well.

Impressive. Next thing you'll tell me is you got the ol' elevator door play in too.

Did I see pull up jumpers from the CPU?

In addition to the rest of the video, of course.

Mismatches are something we know we need to get right and will probably do something specific in future that will cover all these area's. Right now it is more like just general code that kicks in. So it def isn't what you want to see as far as them selecting the exact right freelance action to deal with that mismatch.

This year for me it was all about play stability. I have heard the cries LOL and I don't want to hear them anymore. So a major effort was put into the play system and the freelance is some of the fruit of that.

My hope is that next year it won't need all that work again and we can take some things we introduced even deeper.
Thanks a lot for getting back to me on that. I definitely understand that it's not a simple task. I am loving the transparency you're giving us regarding what you could and couldn't accomplish this year. It gives me a much better feeling going forward. Getting you guys from OS is the best thing 2k could have done.

One point id likE to make about the czar's comments about the current state of the ai and offense. I trully appriciate his honesty.As a consumer i am much more likely to support yearly purchases of a company if i know the team a. Knows its not perfect how can i have any confidence about them fixing/improving problems if they dont know whats wrong in the 1st place. B if they dont try to over hype and try to convince me every thing is perfect. Nothing worse then getting excited to play a new game only to feel bamboozled after i pop it in.(the 'wait n see' comment from some one still has its scars.) after reading this thread not only am i excited about 2k15 but im also very optimistics about 16 and beyond. The future of NBA video games is in great hands and makeing massive strides in the right direction.

HAHA

Yes I wasn't tripping but I couldn't tell on my phone... it wasn't Rose lol

Looks like the Classic Chicago Bulls team has the Triangle. Now that I recognized for sure because I was just thinking of that exact play talking to Sage about it a few days ago.... How about that

This shows exactly why I stopped playing 2k14 and why I want the next week to go as fast as possible in anticipation! This looks AWESOME.

Im a pretty serious association player. Im also a massive Mavs fan. But the last 2 years Ive had to use OKC because I didnt feel like I could replicate the Mavs offense which is dependent on passing and movement.

The game excelled with the OK isos and the pick and roll stuff (I know the Mavs run lots of PNR) but now Ill play with the Mavs.

I know I may seem like a total noob for saying this, but what exactly is SimNation?
 
# 174 Flightwhite24 @ 09/26/14 10:08 PM
No doubt after watching this I have now realized that I have "Soiled" myself and a shower is now in order.

Well played Da_Czar

Please stop showing these videos because if it continues it will "DRIVE" the price of me scoring an early release copy through the roof!!!

Well now with parsons in the mix he makes everybody around him better and Nelson. It's stacked. Should be interesting

Yes, for your team you can pick what you want.

I actually have never tried that if I have time I may try it. I believe it will switch back but it is just a guess.

We assign it to a coach so my assumption is that where ever that coach is assigned his freelance would follow him.

Definitely in the 3-2. the 4-1 honestly is our weakest set in freelance plays etc.

The AI can both just move the ball and look to score. In set's where we have excellent coverage like the 3-2 they can score from any player in any position. Or I should say attempt to score. You can still defend them well and the AI would take a bad shot.

So there are still possessions here or there where you put them in a situation where they take a more difficult shot than they should have because they took to long to switch from moving the ball to trying to score.
