NBA 2K15's SimCast is its Most Underrated Feature

[canucksss]

I started recently myGM and I LOVE IT. WHy? just as you stated, I dont have time to play both myCareer and myGM and playing all the games involved plus other games that I have.

So in myGM, i just play the management side of the GM like - pricing, scouting, training, even POE and lineups and their minutes. Of course the trading as well. I use this feature SIMcast and i really like it. At one point, my team (Timberwolves) were behind 10 pts at the end of 1st half, I adjusted the POE and we won by 3 in OT. (ok...im playing as a coach too...with this feature).

Great write up. Great addition 2k!

Wait, they finally let you jump into a simcast game? I've been wanting this feature since, what, 2K5? I might have to pick this up after all...

Edit: Actually, it used to be called HoopCast, I think. I always wondered why you couldn't jump into a game, since you could in NFL 2K5, which had a very similar feature. Glad it's finally in!

By the way....using this SIMcast, you could still earn badges if you win the game. I dont know about VC, thats a good question...I'll try to check with my next win.

I only jumped into myleague, but I'm going to try this feature out, thanks for the write-up!

I do like SimCast. I don't use it a lot but I agree it is a great feature.

I am waiting on rosters to be finalized, but SimCast has me excited. I sim a bunch of games, but I want control and the ability to jump in. I remember MVP Baseball 2005, where you could sim and jump in at anytime and that was the best franchise mode I have ever played. It's fun getting 5+ seasons into the future. Now let's hope I can find a decent draft class for the next two years.

probably a dumb question, but do sliders affect sim results?

Not a dumb question, and I'll piggyback off of it.

Are the simulated stats reasonable? How do FG% and REB #'s look for a game played with full length quarters?

I have NBA 2k15 sitting at home unopened because I've been playing Madden too much. However, if SimCast delivers true, solid simulation stats I am going to have to get into it tonight.
