My question to the community is, if this video was shown from the 2k camera angle or my personal favorite Drive cam, would that change any of your thoughts? Just because to me camera angle does effect gameplay to some degree.

I don't think anyone has a problem with the graphics. For me personally, when I say it looks like last year, I'm referring to what it looks like in motion. I don't see much improvement in terms of teammate AI, footplanting, etc.

I agree with that to an extent, I think the movement definitely looks less sluggish tho. As far as AI improvements only time will tell. I really can only judge that accurately with the sticks in my hands.

From 1:41 to 1:44, the whole time I was thinking....Damn it Varejao! Get yo' a** back down on the blocks OR set a damn pick...Just don't stand there!!!! This is a big pet peeve of mine! BUT the encouraging thing is that once Love handed off to Irving, he just didn't stay in place to let Irving have to go around him just like in 2K14.

Spacing 2K! We need better spacing! And as mentioned in other threads...I believe the size of players to court ratio is off. This is one aspect that the 2K team needs to use NBA Live as a reference point.

And is it just me or is this illegal pick just gettin' out of hand....The Thunder couldn't even get into any offensive scheme b/c of this call. But what was encouraging was seeing Durant iso and pull up for a nice turn-around...That was nice....

My general point is, NBA players do not have bodybuilder arms, or legs.. They are relatively very slim.

Of course the players themselves are large, you listed off guys who are like 6'10 250+, they are obviously going to be very large men lol.

The taller you are generally the larger your limbs to keep you proportioned, unless you're like Manute Bol, but as far as the size of their limbs basketball players stay "skinny" even the large guys.

I already said there are a a few where that's not the case, you listed 3 relatively larger guys.. But for comparison, Cousins and Durant.



Not a huge difference in how big their limbs are, and that's with Cousins being "chunky" by the NBA norm and Durant being stick figure skinny. Since most guys fall between the two of them you can see my point as to how there isn't a huge need for everyone that has a small amount of mass on them to be built like Karl Malone and David Robinson..

Even someone most people here are claiming is huge, Ibaka, would look thin if you saw him in public compared to average people.

Notice in normal clothes not standing next to 9 other basketball players, he looks very tall and slim.. But on the basketball court he looks larger.

NBA 2K has always been my favorite sports game, each and every year, minus 2k14 due to the lack of association mode with the option to player lock inside that mode. Now that we get that mode back, player lock and the ability to edit rosters again, I'm fairly certain it'll be a must buy from here out, even if it's not perfect.

Is it October yet?

Maybe that funky foul call, but I've seen most of these things before even on 360 lol. Again, what are you talking about? Nobody's says I have to buy either game? You're just talking now lol.

No one said you had to buy anything. But if you expect to have any credibility for your opinion on the game, logging hours on YouTube doesn't mean jack compared to actually logging a good number of hours actually playing the game. That's all I'm saying. And it's really safe to assume that people that get the game would put in more time than someone that did not. Assumption. But a safe one.

Who in the hell said it shouldn't be? I just said it looks like 2K14 so far and in the same post said, "I am happy". All this stuff you are saying I've never said in my post. I never said anything about a drastic change or anything.

Your comprehension of what I wrote needs work. I never said YOU... I was speaking in general toward the other comments that were similar to your post. Did I REALLY have explain that?

I'm not going to go back and forth with you about this. I made my point and if it insulted you, then that my bad because it wasn't my intent. I even agree with you in general. So that should be enough to move on. Game looks similar 2k14. As it should. All is well.

LOL. If I see the same animations on 2K14 NG and on CG, Why do I have to play it. I see it. What are you talking about man?

I could look at live and SEE the same problems like a floating pass or animations without ever playing it and know the next game still has the same floating pass. I didn't say it felt the same or anything. I could see if I said, "Man, 2K is clunky and has the same dumb controls." Then you would have a point. I can see a dunk animation on YT and tell it's the same. Like what is you talking about? You sound ridiculous.

My comprehension needs work, but you only quoted me smh. You didn't insult me at all, you just sound ignorant and is debating for no reason. You're the one in your feelings about my comment. Overall you agree with what I said lol. The game looks similar, never said it was a bad thing. Even said I was happy. so what is the problem? Just be quiet and move on. You know you have no argument.
