Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Playing cheesers is funny man. When you beat them you walk around like you are the NWA World HEavyweight Champion. When you lose to them, you feel like garbage. I damn sure woke up this morning with Revenge on my mind. I need to go into the post more because I have been neglecting feeding the ball inside. I think I might have posted less than 5 times in 10 games. I know that won't fly long term.

Having only a few games under my belt, consider playing through the center. Toss the ball down in the paint, you may not actually look to score, but more of a decoy. Get ready to pass to the open man using your center. Or do what the Warriors might do and have the center at the top of the key looking to pass the rock. Play through your center could be a strategy that you enforce every once in a while.

I had Andrew Bogut at the top of the key specifically looking to pass the ball. I had Harrison Barnes or was it Green cutting to the basket for the layup/dunk.

Will do. I need to start using the "Quick Iso" after I feed the ball inside sometimes because stuff seems cluttered at times man.

Is this a joke? Do i have to download something to get the real rookies with their real faces?
You need to let the patch download and install. Once that is done, reboot the game and you should be good to go.

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Very impressed. A lot that needs to be said both positively and negatively has been said.

For me, what stands out the most (and is always the first thing I look for) is team specific play styles and the immersion factor.

So far so good. Playing against the big man Philly Sixers was a vastly different experience than playing the shooting heavy champions.

Really enjoyed how I saw Curry looking for his points. I guarded him primarily with Chris Paul and that was the only successful match up. Playing tight on him kept Curry off the three point line but the Warriors are so efficient. So many weapons. Instead they killed me on pick and rolls.

The difference in speed is incredible just from seeing Draymond Green waltz pass me as Blake when defending him at the three point line. And when I started sagging off, he just drilled a three instead. Not sure how anyone in real life is beating this team for the next half decade.

Also pissed me off watching Green celebrate his baskets and And 1s while up by like 30 in the 4th. And he was the only one. So Green. I love the guy in real life but I can see why some hate him.

I got blown out in that match up but I know I have a lot to learn. I feel as if I started playing bad basketball to win games in 2k15. My biggest complaint was it felt like street ball was the only remedy to scoring.

So far I have had no success with that broken logic and I'm glad. I need to Re learn patience and setting up my offense. I couldn't be happier.

On a somewhat different note, my girlfriend, ever the critic in my playing video games but still understanding enough to know I enjoy doing so, walked in on me playing and seemed utterly impressed. Now this is the usual story where someone that doesn't care about video games is always super surprised with the presentation and graphics. I mean her first comment was, "this looks sick. Much better than the last basketball video game I've seen: NBA Jam." (Yes folks the original Jam. This is what I'm working with here!) But the point is she was impressed with the commentary (just shows we are so wrapped up in this that we forgot how impressive it really is), and the post game interview.

"Does he (Klay Thompson) really sound like that?"

"Yeah."

"Where is he from? It's weird."

Girlfriends. Gotta love them.

SimBaller, would it be possible to address these two concerns, whether openly with the community or internally with the developers to find a fix. Thanks.

Picked it up yesterday evening, only dived into MyCareer so far. My early impressions.. first thing that caught my eye was overall presentation, from the intro, the slick menus, etc I loving what I see so far.
I was glad to see that the MyPlayer stuff carries over from last year, cause again this year, it seems like the Kinect got no love or optimization for scanning faces, no reason why that powerful tech cant even notice my face. But PS4 camera gets special tips for how to get a good scan.
Lol anyways, the cutscenes are fine, Im enjoying it so far, 2nd game (Georgetown)
What im noticing? Improvements everywhere! Like idk where to start lol. Movement and pacing is much better, animations are sexy, defense.. lord lol. I think it's kind of difficult to notice everything without playing a regular game yet but there is alot to love about this game this year.

Teams undrstanding what they need to do to become better. That was the best news about NBA 2k16 for me and things like relocation have close to zero interest for me. I was so happy about that drastic improvement for this mode and now old story goes on, ughh...

I would like to hear some response from guys.
There are still some trades that just make you but I think it's been cut down quite a bit. I've simmed 12/13 seasons in MYGM and only trades that really stuck out were Damian Lillard for '18 1st and a back up PF, Andre Drummond for the 7th pick, DeAndre Jordan for Brook Lopez
