Yea I missed worded that. I want to know if a 3 can set a pick for my guard. Because right now the 3 will set a pick if you are calling for one with the 4 or 5 and not for a guard.

The Pre-roation setting will help your issue but doesn't solve the exact situation you're talking about. Loading boxes, pins, and elbows is something we didn't get to this year. There's manual ways to achieve this of course but I wouldn't completely sign off on that.

Lets say your being played aggressively on the left side as the ballhander..and it vibrates left on the controller telling us the left is being block off..is there's a way to counter the body up defender, maybe by using off hand to push the defender off, or a dribbling move?

I know your the defense guy, but I'm trying to find out what are consequences when playing on the defensive side.

Thanks man.

Understood. Thanks for that response. The changes you all made are great. Brings the mind back into the game. For us old guys we need the mental part of the game, because i cant keep up strictly with the stick skills. Allowing us to win with our minds is appreciated. No one can ever say you and czar dont know basketball strategy and really mean it from here on out.

OG, I know it's early yet, and we still need to play the game, but are you - at least on a preliminary basis - encouraged by the reactions to what you guys have done from the sim community?

I hope you are. And I hope others at VC are aware too.

We really like the way you as a dev team are kinda sorta partnering with the sim community. Some of us are knuckleheads all the time, some of us are on and off knuckleheads, some of us are OCD about one or two things. . . but overall, there's a solid base of sim gamers who are stunned and stoked by what you guys have attempted this year.

We may not always be the loudest or most persistent with positive feedback, but we're here.

Anyway, I hope y'all are feeling good, really good, about that. And even if there are some larger hiccups that need to be fixed after day 1, what I'm saying here still stands. We're in this with you.

Oh, you're talking about when you just hold down circle/B? If that's the case then no but you could still call for a pick with anybody.

You can already do that on 2k15 tap "O" on PS4 (pick control) and you'll see buttons up to players press the button of the player you want to get pick from and you're good to go. Ofcourse the control scheme will be different in 2k16 yet again it'll be there and more options than ever.
