I've used ratings plus skill from the start and I still find the timing to be a little too early for me. I am getting used to it, though.

My biggest complaint so far is the lack of motion from my teammates when I don't call a play. Even with automotion on auto they still seem to stand around a little too much for my liking.

Either way I'm still having fun. I got smoked by twenty as the Wolves against the Grizzlies but never got angry like I do playing 2K15. I got rocked because I wasn't working for open shots in the second half like I did in the first. I led at the half.

The CPU runs are organic and not just some arbitrary thing that is forced on you.

Changed back to Ratings + Skill as I was blowing out the CPU on Superstar.

Had much better results losing to the Hornets as Milwaukee in a Rewind game.

The shooting release is still to quick for my liking. Looks like I'll have to adjust to it. But it doesn't feel comfortable.

And FWIW...Lance dropped 25 on me and I believe Kemba had 20 or so.
Al Jefferson killed me in the post.

I use the same settings, though once you get it down you are in beast mode, for real - I just hammered the Pacers and Pistons with the Bucks, swinging the ball around calling lots of plays driving and dishing out, this game is thing of beauty once you get going, had one event six rebounds back and forth on the defensive end, it was wild. I kept challenging the shot and Hibbert and West were battling my post guys, there were two blocks, a loose ball etc, it was intense - the best I've seen so far.

Of all people, Austin Rivers put up some big numbers on me, he's tough in this game, hahaha.

I just had the same thing with Milwaukee except mine was on the offensive end.

Wish I knew how to post videos from Facebook.

I finally beat them on the third try because thankfully they kept fouling me when I was missing. I think I shot around 23 free throws adding in the ones where they were fouling me with the clock ticking away. The gloves seem to be off in these challenge games and the CPU plays really dirty. I was surprised that last game they were kind enough to bail me out with the CPU fouling. The green icon great release missing the shot thing puzzles me though. Sometimes I wonder if my game is broken...but then it wouldn't spin in the drive.

I mean you're shooting with Wade from behind the arc what do you expect ?

I thought people were joking when they said it is an invisible wall along the baseline to keep you from going out of bounds. They weren't lying, I just tried it for giggles. You really CAN'T go out of bounds along the baseline. Your player will just slide along that invisible wall towards the basket. That needs to be fixed ASAP.

And there is a slight difference between teams who have played a game in real life this season vs teams who haven't played a regular season game yet. So I guess we really do have to wait for these teams to get a few games played in order for synergy to shine.

I'm Milwaukee.

Hope it works:
