NBA 2K16 Q&A with Ronnie2K (iPodKingCarter)

05:12 PM - June 26, 2015 by Steve_OS

iPodKingCarter recently sat down with Ronnie Singh, AKA Ronnie2K, to ask him a few questions about NBA 2K16. While most of the interview is Ronnie hyping up the game (it's his job), he mentions a few little details here and there, while side-stepping a few others. The NBA 2K16 hype train will officially kick off in late July.

Some details include the following:

What Ronnie does for 2K...
Some NBA 2K16 details arrive in late July, but the bulk of it comes in August and September (which is typical)
MyPARK news will come in September and they are working on something for all of those 7' 2" "point guards"
At this time, he gives no confirmation on Online Association

"Two Words" my man.

Also, at my favorite place in southern California, it's called a PBJMFCF.

Peanut butter and jelly w/ marshmallows and frosted corn flakes. They're both equally delicious in their own ways though.

From a marketing standpoint they are on point. Spike Lee, James Harden, Anthony Davis, the MVP and Champ Steph Curry, and His Airness Michael Jordan.

Interested to learn more about shoes being scanned in, body scan animations, and new post game.

Guess I'm simple. I just want Online ANYTHING to work properly. With minimal lag. From the very first day. That's really it.

Oh, and please let's make (if it's still included) the perfect release not a given make. This is probably even worse for Freethrows, I don't care how much you practice release timing with Dwight or DeAndre, a perfect release should just give you the best chance to make it, not a definite swish.

Im a member from italian nba2k league. Bring back association online. Me and my friends are thinking to play madden to follow us.
Almost of us maybe i didnt see superbowl

I would love a Summer League for the offseason and a D-League option. The D-League is much needed for MyLeague so rookies who aren't getting PT could get some on court action along with the training system that is already in place. Also it is a way to get more people on your roster.

Summer League would be just fun. Having rookies and free agents on the squad and seeing who fits in with your system or could be a good 8th guy off the bench you might want.

We have the best in the business working on gameplay and we've been listening, reading and talking to various folk all year long. All those major things you want to see addressed is in their hands. That's all I will say for now... Oh and as for this interview... can't wait to talk about what he couldn't say in this interview. In the future though...

It's great to here dev team put efforts on gameplay. Really hope dev team can also do a good job on real TV presentation in 2K16.

Let the different modes work offline.

Had to sell the game last year because of this. (I don't have broadband in my area)

Often in an Nba game you'll see the same player, or a couple get 2 or even 3 tips trying to put the ball back in. Be cool to see that in 2k. Also tap outs, where the offensive player will tap the rebound back out to the perimeter. Hasn't been in the game for 2k and happens a lot in real life. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

yeah all around post play needs a boost. surprised with all the animations they added... well i dunno if they mo capped different realistic tip looking tip ins, tip outs, but i do hope defense gets some REAL LOVE this year.

# 32 LBJay89 @ 07/11/15 07:32 PM

Is this Guy Ronnie2k Serious??? Online Association is the ONLY MODE i Play in this Game. Shame on you 2k in You dont bring back this Mode.
Thanks for IpodKingCarter for asking him, but is there nobody in 2k dev Team that Love OA ?? NOBODY???

# 33 jijnunu @ 07/12/15 10:56 AM

I'm just waiting for that big feature that's supposed to change the gameplay drastically

# 34 ksgboy @ 07/14/15 09:59 AM

We need Online Association like it was in 2k11. Who cares about new shoes and other ****?

We have great online league from many years where all best players from Poland plays.

What is wrong with You guys? Just $$$$$$$$ before your eyes?

I understand this is bussines but don't remove the last thing which is important for us to buy this game!!!!!!

I just want to know one thing:

Can I finally get a real shape up in 2K16? Or am I stuck with the horrible cuts of the past?

This is a question that I really hope is answered. Haircuts for black characters had already regressed after 2K9, they then got worse on the last two 2K's. I really hope they address this.
