I already don't enjoy college ball or MyCareer. I wouldn't want that to influence how I feel about the controls. I can wait.

Hey Mike, noticed that on one of the gameplay :



Any chance of that being fixed at some point this year ? Player models should have the priority over the circle under the players. Doesn't look right to me.

Used to be like that :



Edit apparently it's the shot meter that goes through player bodies. Was this on purpose ?

Any chance some of these floaty passes will be patched by the 16th?

Are the triple threat and jab steps gonna be effective this year? I just felt like years past it never really seemed to work the way it does in reality.

Mike, in 2K15 we were able to rotate our player while editing their jumpshots. It made is so much easier because we could see how the base and forms look from the side and back, as well as the front.

Can you tell us why it was taken out last year, and still again this year?

There's a huge community that uses this feature to get all NBA players' shots down perfect. It's a pretty huge part of the game.

So I'm just curious why it was taken away.

I was noticing that more and more in the gameplay videos. I might end up turning it off completely.
