NBA 2K15: Tweet From Scott O'Gallagher Claims 1-3-1 and Charge Cheese Eliminated

04:46 PM - August 25, 2014 by RaychelSnr

It seems Scott O'Gallagher's presence on the NBA 2K team is being felt already. In a tweet earlier today after the release of the Yakkem trailer, O'Gallagher claimed that both the charging cheese and the 1-3-1 defense are both no longer in the game -- both have been major complaints of sim-heads for quite awhile.

In a tweet clarifying the above statement, Chris Manning said, "When you move your player around them, you will and can dribble around defenders. No more quick-draw charges."

So there is some good gameplay news for you today. How do you like both changes?

Always keeping in mind the limitations imposed by time and technology though. If a game plays great with two Users going at it, then it will be spectacular in a User v CPU environment. With the team now assembled at VC, I think OG's anti-Cheddar gifs are a harbinger of things to come for the cheeser crowd going forward.

Great post. I agree 99 percent.

The best part about that was connecting those money-game players to the dev. team to talk how they play - how they play to win specifically - and tactics they use. Getting feedback from those type of players is important.

This type of stuff is just empty promises. Every year around this time we get super hyped with new game mechanics and additional features only to be left disappointed; well at least in my case. NBA 2K14 for next gen consoles was a terrible game from an online players standpoint. The NBA 2K servers are by far the worst in the sports game industry and the one thing that is near and dear to my heart; online leagues/associations was completely ruined and stripped to an unplayable state. All these changes and tweets sound good, but you must forgive some of us consumers for not believing everything we hear; especially from 2K.

This is a great way to discover how cheesers play, how they discover cheesey play & what they do to win. Lowering the alleyoop success & adding in angles & etc will make it harder to complete as in real life. Thanks for pointing it out @Teebone & thanks for sharing your way to try to combat the issues @Ld2k

So long as 2 humans have access to a game, someone will find a flaw in the gameplay and use it as an advantage. As humans, its what we do. It even mirrors real life basketball. On offense you to try to exploit the defense. On defense, coaches like Chicago Bulls Coach Tom Thibideaux get the big bucks to come up with defensive SCHEMES to exploit the offense. Its in our nature to be competitive.

I agree there will always be cheaters but 2k could lessen their chances of cheese by tweaking players, gameplay, fatigue & etc. These things are the most used during exploiting. Ex: Lebron spin dunking insert lower possibility to finish with a dunk in traffic and etc. The more its done more fatigue and now it should be like 2k5 as you get more fatigue you move slower and you must be taken out the game or hurt your team chemistry.

I know that 2k hasn't done everything right in the past but they have done more for us than Not. Lets give them the benefit of the doubt as they hired people who all of us here in the community know & we know are Sim gamers since Day 1. I felt your pain as all I do is play Online & I agree next gen while looking better wasn't as polished especially Online. But remember they didn't have a full year with the next gen consoles & had to produce games for last gen & next gen unlike NBA Live. So, I knew ahead of time & from previous experiences with games that the 1st released title with a new console might not be the best.

I don't know if you've read some of the changes such as going back to the old format on defensive schemes has been reinserted while removing the point of emphasis & etc. which didn't give gamers enough. This is year 2 & they went & got more firepower Leftos, Da Czar & a pro himself in OGSports. Things are looking up bro, add me we could get a Sim game in come November.

Man finally!!! I never understood having 1-3-1. Maybe for international basketball. But I never understood why it was in an NBA game. Where actually teams play zero 1-3-1 defense.
