Could someone shine some light on at least one of these things? I'm really confused.

[tcrews]

I have looked here and google for similar threads and can't find anything.
Sometimes I feel like my game may actually be broken so I need to know if these things happen to other people or if it's just something I'm missing

1. Lead passing. I was absurdly efficient on last gen but now it's nearly impossible to get a lead pass in the right situation

2. Passes are slow as death. After I hit a button a slow passing animation will take place and I never seem to be able to whip the ball quickly to where it needs to go. The passes are so slow a defender not even originally guarding the man I passed to has time to get into position and tip the pass. What gives?

3. Quick plays. How? I can bring up quick ISO and quick post up with the touch pad. I can bring up quick pick and rolls when the microphone works. Is there seriously not an easier way to do this?

4. Playbooks. They all show up as different Playbooks but as soon as I'm in the game itself and call a play it goes to some default playbook and I've been running the same ineffective plays for a month now.

Despite all of this I love the game but those are pretty big barriers in terms of being able to get the most out of this experience. Thanks for the help in advance.

Sounds like you play online.

Playbooks r glitched, once u start a game it defaults to the 76ers playbook. If u want to run diff plays u have to edit the 76ers playbook to the team's plays u really want.

For quick plays press left on the d pad then press R2, its not quick at all but that's how u get the quick play menu.

Only thing I can say about passing is try to tweak the sliders, defenders r pretty psychic anyway so lead passing is usually ineffective. I can lead players when using icon passing by pressing the left analog in the direction I want the player to b lead. Hope this helps.

Ace. Thank you. Much appreciated. That helps a lot actually.

Roger. I actually play strictly offline. Am i to assume my current problems are even worse online?? Yikes.

With passing, reduce the CPU's 'hands' attribute and 'play passing lanes' tendency.

But yeah, passing has been horrendous in 2K. Its like throwing balls of fluff around

yea it's much worse online, imo.

go online. and play 'man-to-man' defense for a few trips up the court.

just try to stay in front of your man... and you will see for yourself.

#4 makes me want to punch myself in the face. So does #1 and #2. Man you really just make me want to punch myself.

Another question I have: why is it so ridiculously easy for a human player to switch and immediately block a shot? I am getting killed online by the fact that a wide open shot turns into a block because I either get sucked into a ridiculous layup animation that takes 14 seconds or somebody turbo-switches and blocks a wide open jumper.

I admit that I suck online but I feel like I need to learn skills that have nothing at all to do with real basketball, but just how to counter all the cheese that people do. I refuse to cheese. I don't do the stupid charge crap. I wish I could figure out how people are so amazing at blocks inside though. Even with good position I always seem to get called for fouls. And it's especially frustrating that with John Wall I still can't seem to make any layups or get fouls. I just don't get it.

Anyway rant aside, I have no answers for you, just more questions....

If you value your sanity do not play this game online.
