NBA 2K16 Gameplay Footage Leaked

[fab4]

i dont really like it that much!
they still stop sometimes before they make the pass, which takes away free shots!
some animations are not smooth! like when kyrie shoots, looks strange!

Cannot draw any conclusions from such vids and trailers about the gameplay. Wish 2k would release demo version of game though.

As great as 2K is, it's not without it's flaws. Like I said the game is amazing & I only pointed it out in hopes that it can be tightened up.

I think Boiler may have worded it a bit harshly but was trying to say that at this point the footplanting has already taken a significant leap for one year and it'll never be perfect(otherwise you'd have to compromise elsewhere). Also at this point the game is done and going gold so to love 2k16 for what it does do rather than what it doesn't. Not saying that's you, just that a lot of times people focus on things that aren't and never will be perfect and then expect them to be. At the end of the day it is a videogame you know .

Sliding it something that is going to be around for a while...I think the most important thing is that it doesn't actually impair you when trying to defend....or create a lot of unrealistic situations on offense...I don't really care how it looks cosmetically as much....even though like I said, it improves how the game looks a great deal...

The real test will be when the game drops though....we shall see...

Sliding is caused because the defensive player is out of position when a defensive animation is triggered. This should cause 2k to redesign the system next year. Creating a false balance between the defensive and offensive movements is totally unnecessary when the game has footplanting and realtime physics. Sliding will always look bad because its used in the place of natural movement and momentum and it negates the effectiveness of good positioning on a offensive player and it unnaturally over powers the defensive player.

Maybe have the motion captured actor move in ways to where they cover wide distances and this animation is used when appropriate instead of having the positions unnaturally adjusted and programmed in the engine which is causing the sliding. Or event create a procedural animation system to where they players can slide more naturally.

Im sure getting rid of "sliding" is harder than what some of you guys think ...in that case NUMEROUS games wouldnt have instances of it in them...I wish I had a clip of what Czar said about it..Anyway, I applaud 2ks attempt at footplanting..although it's not perfect, its a step in the right direction

Sliding wasn't the problem for some of us in previous 2k games. the real problem was poor defense animations and foot planting. if your light on the the stick and play defense on different angles, and the players has good awareness and lateral movement those combined you will be ok.

If you play real life basketball, what are the rules for defense...

Stay on your toes in a defensive stance
Move laterally, never cross your feet..it will put you out of position
Limit reaching for the ball..you will have better reaction
Stand between the ball and the person your guarding..leave spacing


Sorry if it sounds like I'm trying to teach how to play this game but nothing is wrong with sliding it's apart of basketball.
