NBA 2K15 Wishlist

[Vegemietian]

Mycareer:
- practice mode. We should have free practice either on our own to practice dunks, shot stick shooting, dribble moves, etc. Or practice with teammates to run plays and learn them. I also want to know where my hot zones for my player are, and be able to increase my number of hot zones through practice or by nailing shots in game.
- no online saves required, period.
- ability to skip cut scenes. Starting a new mycareer is way too tedious because of hours of cut scenes that nobody wants to rewatch over an over.
- when starting a mycareer, the ability to see the attributes of each position before choosing one. It sucks getting 20 games into a career and realising your small forward has a cap of 75 on passing...
- more than 3 personality badges. There are 21 to choose from...
- clothing and gear shouldnt cost VC, but we all know that any money making scheme will no be removed.
- should be able to play "next key game". Some of us dont have the time to play an 82 game season.
- reduce the amount of scripting. For a whole season, there will probably come a time for me to hit a buzzer beater game winning shot, so just let that story unfold naturally. Dont sub me out early in the 4th quarter when my team is up by 18 points, and then throw me back in with 12 seconds left and down by 1. Weve got plenty of season to see all the gameplay and storyline. We dont have to see it all straight away.
- display dynamic goals i have in progress when i pause the game. Seeing "Make NBA History" flash up for a nanosecond in tiny writing in the corner of the screen doesnt cut it".
- allow flexible attribute caps. I understand that 7"2 centres shouldnt have a speed of 99, but let us do trade offs between stats. If I want to increase my SF's passing cap by 5 and reduce my post offense cap by 5, I should be able to.
- make career progression slightly slower. We shouldnt be playing in the All-star weekend 1st season. Give us something to look forward to in the 2nd season and make it a real achievement, not some token right of passage.
- get rid of bad call penalty. Players call for the ball all the time in real life. Theres no harm in calling for the pill, and often im penalised when im rightfully calling for the ball in a wide open position with no-one between me and the ball handler.

Online:
- the ability to search for online games and sort by ping. Im in Australia and im constantly lagging out against American opponents. Havent been paired against an aussie yet, and i know theres thousands of us playing.
- get rid of the park. Its a POS. No-one wants to wait 20 minutes for a game, and then miss out because there arent 3 more people who want to play afterwards. Its ridiculous and a massive waste of time.

Gameplay:
- reduce speed. Lebron James and Durant are ridiculous to guard. Sometimes they bounce up and down on the spot like theyre on cocaine. If you want to make them harder to defend, up their strength, or make them sink jumpshots even when im in their face. NBA 2k14 makes you believe that players never sink jumpshots with someone in their face...
- make guarding the keyway easier. CPU just drive past me way too often for easy baskets. Should be more jumpshots and post play.
- reduce blocks. My SF has a block attribute of 25 (havent touched it) and he's swatting shots from everywhere.
- make posting up more realistic. In superstar and HOF the CPU just swipes the ball away far too often when doing the post animation.
- make CPU miss 3-pointers more. Its absurd how every half open look the CPU gets the swish a 3.
- make CPU teammate lane passing better. 19 times out of 20 i cut through the keyway only to have derrick rose ignore.... makes you want to tear your hair out. The only time the CPU voluntarily passes me the ball is when i run from the keyway out to the 3pt arc.
-make running plays more rewarding. Should be VC bonus for executing good set out plays. Maybe even introduce play run through during timeouts, especially for late 4th quarters in a tight game.
- more commentary audio would be nice. Or at least vary it somehow because i hear every game about Mark Eaton, Wilt Chamberlain and Jordan, Stockton and Isaiah. EVERY SINGLE GAME.

Ratings restricted low post animations for offensive low post players.

It's irritating that every big has Olajuwon moves in the low post - heck even single player has them.

Separate animations kind of like dunk packages for low post animations.

bring back view games boxscore will games in progress online like NBA2k11 website. Add Twitch and ustream to watch other games online. Should also have a recap show to sum up weekly results. like TNT, . We should be able to create our own Blog and reviews and rankings online for our online leagues. What we see in NBA Today should play similiar in GM mode as well and online leagues.

BRING BACK 30 TEAM CONTROL

I have to be blunt, the CPU logic this year was just as poor as it has always been and a big let down. If you aren't going to improve it significantly, what is the justification for taking away 30 team control?

ability to choose the jerseys in mycareer mode

[Raw Energy]

Everyything people mention ability to wear any jersey in myplayer/mycareer it sucks seeing same two jerseys.

More names in data base that actually says the name of the player. The Show has this aspect down.

Ability to go undrafted, or 2nd round. last time i went in 2nd round i think was 2011 i was a mid 2nd round pick.

Going 2nd make it seem ok since the team still draft the original player i don't mind going 2nd round to keep some realism.

I do not always want to be a superstar what if i want to created a role playing specialist who is a bust i should have option without having to worry about only way for team to play better if i b/c superstar by year 2.

[Raw Energy]

Better player movement at times feel like the physics are on same level with Madden 13.

Actual injuries to your player in Mycareer.

Ability to DUNK at will if i'm pressing right buttons and have a high dunk rating i want to dunk not layup. IDC if it goes in i get block or etc especially if i have posterized as a SIG skill

Speed difference need to be able to tell it better.

Ability to earn titles like star and superstar. Why am i a 99 character yet i'm still only a starter in league.

Chemistry indicator for team mates every single one of them and players around the league so you can see who wants to play with you etc.

Create a Team

Create a Player


This game was one of the last games with good create a team and create a player ability. Nothing better than being able to create a full team of players and take them into an association. I would buy the game only to do this. Yet every piece of this has been removed.

Bring back simulateable association. Love to do pure GM where I simulate most of the season. In current MyGM this just isn't possible as you need VC.
