Very glad to hear some real Hiphop in the soundtrack. Heard at least two gritty songs by DJ Premeir with scratches in the chorus. Some boom bap gives the game a down to earth feel, rather than gimmicky or uppity.

You can't put it on superstar sim and expect the same level of success you had in past game.s. I always start on pro and only move up when I can do everything well enough to blow out the AI consistentlhy.

noted...thanks for the help

I'll knock it back down and try to improve a little at a time

I played my first myteam game and my opponent quit in the 4th quarter. I love the gameplay this year, it really rewards you for playing smart basketball rather than trying to cheese.BTW Marcus Morris is a beast on myteam.

It is MUCH more responsive, at least offline. The players can take small steps and it makes all the difference in the world. The whole game feels smoother and faster, and there are new movements on offense and defense to give us more angles with which we can attack and stop an attack.


Presentation has taken a GREAT step up. There's so much work done in this game that it's mind blowing. I know 2k is a triple A company and title right now, but it's still amazing to see this much work go into a single, less than a year cycle.

Can someone please tell me what the speed burst is this year? They got rid of the R2 being speed burst but I can't find what it's been changed to. Sorry if this is a rookie question.

Sorry should have been specific, but ya was referring to offline. That heaviness and lack of responsiveness was not good in 2k15. I have the game waiting for me to pick up, but that 2k15 tank movement is a deal breaker.

Nevermind i'm an idiot. I had read that R2 did something different this year and in the Controls menu it didn't say anything under dribbling or defense. I'll take a lap.

The fact that I can make this had my bro freaking out. He didn't know much about the game but when I showed him this he said he's going to buy the game tomorrow lol. Granted it's not very accurate but I just did it to show how in depth you can get.
