NBA 2K16: Some Ideas On How to Improve the Series

[cima]

Bring back old roster management. It's a pain in the *** to edit rosters now. The old system was perfect

[WISports]

People want lag-free online play when we can't even get lag-free offline play. You'd think this were the PS2 or something.

I really wish the career mode would go the route of year to year saves like MLB The Show. Probably might stay with 2k15 a year or two because I actually want to ho through a career. Still depends on 2k16's quality and whether it's worth starting over.

You got players missing an inside layup JUST because a defender simply raises their hand and the offensive player's standing layup rating is low, you got players engaging in the obvious pushing animation during inside layup attempts and there's no foul, KEVIN DURANT, Steph Curry, Kyrie Irving MAKE EVERYTHING online. Yall make it SO Hard for players to block a layup, but players can block dunks all day long with NO fouls called. You still got players actin like they don't know how to make a wide open pass, but anybody could throw and easily complete a long pass with defenders all over the receiver. People in online quick matches LOVE playing off ball defense so they play off-ball and just spam the square/X button all day long, and 2K took off the intentional fouls from 2k14; that was 2K's smartest idea!! (to force players to intentional foul after 3 presses of the square/X button). Why would they take that off!? I could play My player, online OR offline, I time a pass and somehow he misses, but he has interceptor gold, and let somebody tip a pass, the ball will end up behind them out of bounds or something; how is this stuff happening? 2k14 wasn't like this! WHY is it that in ONLINE quick matches 2K feels the need to STOP THE GAME TO SHOW SOME STATS THAT I REALLY DON'T FRICKING CARE ABOUT????????? Tryna be realistic sooooooo bad!!!! Just STOP!!!!! Inbound passes; Yes INBOUND PASSES: WHY DOES 2K FEEL THE NEED TO MAKE SOMEBODY PASS THE BALL AAAAALLLL THE WAY UP THE COURT JUST SO SOMEBODY ELSE CAN SIMPLY INBOUND A BALL!!!! AND WHY THE HELL CAN'T POINT GUARDS INBOUND THE BALL AND SIMPLY GET IT BACK LIKE IN REAL LIFE!!!??? Somebody get dunked on, they on the floor, now the PG picks up the ball and has to wait a year and a day JUST so that his teammate, who Just got dunked on, can inbound the ball. WHY CANT THE POINT GUARD DO IT AND INBOUND TO SOMEBODY ELSE TILL HIS TEAMMATE GET HIMSELF TOGETHER!!!???!?!? For God Sakes!!: You need a SHOE ENDORSEMENT IN ORDER TO WEAR A PAIR OF SHOES. I get the Adidas Sponsorship, but I still can’t wear Adidas, so I'm still wearing 2K generic shoes. 2k so "realistic" right? SO why can’t I simply wear a pair of shoes I want if this game so "realistic"? At least let us BUY shoes with our coins, then get the rest of whatever shoe brand we bought for FREE after we get the endorsement!! In my player, why tf does LeBron or Kevin Durant get a break in the beginning of the 4th quarter, but my myplayer doesn't!???? My myplayer is from a LOW RANKED MEAC university, I don't care WHAT his overall, ppg he averages, I DON'T CARE. There is no excuse for him NOT to get rest before the most crucial part of the game!!! Park is stupid and it needs to be taken off. First of all: Why does everybody start off in a BROWN OUTFIT. 2K wanna be 'soooo realistic', who the hell is gonna show up to hoop in an ALL BROWN OUTFIT!?!? I can press "got next" and he either finally responds after like 5 minutes, or he doesn't respond at all and somebody get in the spot that I JUST told my my player to get into. Park and JRC is just so laggy!! I don’t understand why 2K can’t just go back to matchmaking like 2K11, except just be able to simply be able to jump into a matchmaking or invite your friends to a 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, 5v5 online blacktop game, it’s that SIMPLE!! Bet you wouldn't have all these issues! Don't nobody got time to be waiting for a game to be over and getting a crew together just to play "Jordan Rec Center". THIS IS A VIDEOGAME, NOBODY HAS TIME FOR ALL THAT!! People just wanna simply take their my player, and simply get into a game!!! AND STOP lettin people create all around 99 overall 7'3 my players; that sh!t is unrealistic. Shouldn't nobody be 90+ overall because if any of us was really 90+ overall, we'd be in the NBA no wouldn't we? Stop makin it so easy to shoot on Jordan Rec Center and Park. Stop lettin so many shot go in despite great defense. Whats the point of playing defense if he just keeps making shots anyfrickenway! And dont give me that 'because it can happen in real life' bullsh!t, no, take it OFF. YEAH I'm angry, NO Im not happy. This game is GARBAGE and them comments above me don't sound productive. Ay 2K, go fix this sorry excuse for a videogame.

I am not sure what's happening here.

MYCAREER:
No scripts! - I hate having to follow the same as everyone else. I want my own unique path.
D League - We should be able to get sent down if the team doesn't need us. We can develop our game down there.
Draft - I want to be able to get drafted in the first, second or go undrafted. It should be determined on how we perform.

We should do a three game showcase to show off our skills or the lack of skills. After that, we should get interviewed by various teams, and not just the same ones each and every time we start a new career.

If we do go un-drafted. We should be able to try out for ALL teams, not just a select few.

Create a Shot - We should be able to customize the shot we want to use.

You forgot the turnovers from bounce passes when you didn't even press the bounce pass button.

Getting matched up with 7 Foot Small Fowards with maxed out length and the game penalizing you for them out rebounding you.

Passing to the paint being an automatic turnover even when the lane is open. Lobs to big men getting swatted by 5'11 guards

The Zig Zagging

CPU being so dumb that they start double teaming you in the halfcourt even if all your points are on fast breaks and the double teams being an automatic jump ball

The game taking forever to manually intentionally foul, then when they finally foul they do it while your opponent is shooting a 3 and gives them a 4 point play

[thedream2k16]

The return of online association is much anticipated hope 2k finally brings it back this year and not this broken online league more. 3 years straight without it will hinder the sales of some guys like me

We need Summer League and Draft Combine too. Remember in 2k11 when you were a PG the 2k Insider would tell you that you're matched up with John Wall and Evan Turner at the Draft Combine and he would tell you to force him to shoot jumpers and they would give you objectives so you could make the team? They need something like that and they also need to let you scrimmage with your team and do drills manually instead of it happening randomly. And we should be in the starting lineup right away when we are drafted in the top 5.
