Anyone else hate substitutuons

I just don't understand how anyone can prefer this method, it's 10x slower than the dpad way in 2k15. They are even forced on you during timeouts now.

Yeah, I'm not a fan. They made it overly complicated. Sometimes simple really is better.

I don't even bother making subs or changing freelances. It's too much. They ruined auto subs this year and made it so that your subs in a timeout take place on the next dead ball. I hope that it's not by design.

Its so bad it should be patched. Horrible idea. Fast auto subs were a joy now its just a waste of time to make something worse.

Ok say you want to do an on the fly sub that puts your SG at PG and your backup SG at SG. How do you do that 2.5 seconds? Thats how fast it used to be. Now its faster to just press pause.

Re: Anyone else hate substitutuons

I'm not a fan of the subs system since they changed from the dpad awhile back. That was so fast and easy compared to what we have now.

Particularly odd is that you use the Right Stick to make subs while playing and the Left Stick to make subs during time outs. Why not make it the same stick during both live action and during the timeouts?

Not to mention that during the timeout, you have to hit a trigger to get to the subs once you choose and can't put certain lineups in without manually adding everyone.

It's almost like they don't play the game using the same interface as us before they release it.

Otherwise, they'd know that once you hit square, you can't go back into the timeout.They'd know that some of the settings don't stay in force after the timeouts and more.

You think by now, we could set our own sub packages. It's PS4 after all.

You can't even set subs before a play with friends game it's so stupid.

It's crazy how they've just made things more difficult for no reason since 2K11.
