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

I cannot stress enough how much I hate the Tier system, it's not fun in anyway shape or form to pick the Pistons and get matches up with the Cavs or Warriors. I've won some Tier 3 vs Tier 1 games, but if you play even a semi competent person you're going to get rolled over. There's no penalty for picking a Tier 1 team and losing, it still counts as 1, it should honestly be 2 losses just like it's 2 wins for the Tier 3 team. I don't want to have to use Tier 1 teams all the damn time it takes the fun out of the game for me at least since I'm a Pistons fan and like using them but when I see the Cavs/Rockets/Spurs/Warriors on the other end I can't help but think "What ******* thought this would be fun match making?"

The big man setting up at the free throw line is perhaps the most difficult to pass to. The pass always goes cross court to the guard or forward at the three point line.

I have to use icon passing except I find that process much longer to accomplish when you see a give and go opportunity.

The directional passing in this game has always been a problem.

That was the other thing that bothered me. I was using the Kings. The most powerful team I saw in the last two days was Houston.

I still have this issue from time to time, although I have improved somewhat, by looking to see if the circle is under the player I want to pass to.

Still trying to get passing handoffs down where the process is much smoother for me, because I still have the player I want to hand the ball off to stopping and then going, as opposed to getting the handoff while continuing to move in the same process.

Anybody else struggling with Offensive Post moves when you switch the shooting over to the button instead of analog or is it just me?

Agreed. I'm so sick of playing against the Spurs and Thunder.

Personal preference here....but I wish the icons on icon passing wee larger.

On the tier system....what does that have to do with who people pick? You can't restrict that regardless...

For anyone having issues gettjng guys open I'd suggest the "space the floor" action....this has provided me with a lot more open looks....it cuts down on motion but there are still some actions and your team maintains space no matter where you pass...

Left on direction pad, RB, select 'space the floor' from the action menu..
