NBA 2K15 Servers Have Been Stabilized, Online Modes Working

Then you drop that one person. FPS' have done that for years.

How does that explain a head to head "Play with Friends" matchup can't reliably connect as well? Can't even get that "stable." I know people are playing but it's a crapshoot. For some odd reason ranked games are probably the most stable. Same exact issue last year ALL NBA season.

How's that any different from what it's like now?

I don't disagree. And there's no excuse for the "Play with Friends" "feature" not working. But there the majority of people with internet have connections that can get REALLY sloppy. A good ping used to be 200ms. That's 5 reliable packets a second (worse case). That is horrible for gaming. All I'm saying is that the internet is a mess and it's not crazy to think that half of the users out there can have enough junk in their connections to make for a laggy game. You'd be kicking a LOT of users.

Ranked games are not stable at all. I've finished 1 out of 10 today. I really don't understand how the servers could be worse this year than they were last year.

Then you put feedback and then try and narrow the problem down. Right now when I am kicked I see a standard error. When games were not starting, I was getting some BS,"If at first you don't succeed," message. That's cool for testing, not for a retail game. Only frustrates users more to have that.

But it seems like there are two error messages. How does that help the team looking into this at all? They should know better. I work in IT but not software but that's something you learn very early on. Leave the breadcrumbs so you can find the trail to the problem.

I was just playing my team game online and was beating some dude by like 30 points in the 4th and game was almost over had like 2 min left and then all of a sudden you have been disconnected lol I was so pissed

That's the thing. I don't know if VC respects the user's knowledge enough to tell them why they have been disconnected. Make up some bogus error code system or something. But to give the same messages every time is weak in my opinion.

I can not complete any online games. Every game sent to the PS4 dash
