I always thought that hiring guys from community like Leftos, YaosMing, DaCzar and some more will result in more good things in-game, but these podcasts and blogs really impressed me so much. Even if it is some kind of commercial I believe if half of that is true everyone will be so damn satisfied. Yes, I know Mike Wang is great team leader, producer Rob is cool and so open-minded, but I really believe that input of these guys is so crucial for success of the NBA 2K16. That is why I had no slightest doubt to preorder game the day it came on Steam. And after everything I saw here on OS, Semtember 25th is so damn far away...so much far away...

OG that was a much needed fix for fans. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I have one small input and a question.

Input- In the Grizz video as Udrih dribbles towards Barnes, notice Barnes's slight hesitation to retreat wide. Barnes's hands and body TURN & move away as if he would be receiving a pass from the post or baseline that he is headed towards. It appears that it should be HANDS UP towards Udrih as Barnes SLIDES wide for a possible dump off pass from Udrih's new court position.

Question- During Mike's blog, there was a mention of players like LeBron being able to run over smaller players. Will the same type abilities apply in the post with smaller defenders? In the past smaller players could still body up and impede a bigs movement in the post. Will 2k16 allow for the absolute destruction, disrespect, and disregard of weaker defenders? I'm talking 2 handed power dribble, shoulder to chest or face depending on defenders size while defenders face shifts to pain and defeat like Laker shaq over Dudley or Miami Shaq on Mutombo.

All the guys who have NO idea how to play defensive basketball are about to get destroyed, especially online.

All the cheesers that ran rampant online last year are in for a hell of a rude awakening

Amazing!!!
Only thing I would ask to add is the user defensive rebounding to offensive cpu rebounding battle. User big men don't grab rebounds. Also if your using a player like lebron James. We all know he loves to rebound. So he should have games where he has 2 rebounds.

Also for those that couldn't tell, MATT BARNES IS SCANNED!!! Thank the lord because I couldn't take another year of the Puerto Rican Rooster they had in game before. Now for Big Baby...

Btw, where's that all clips together vid? The individuals keep closing out and reverting to the old youtube player for me and I can't slow the clips down.

You can definitely see 2k setting up to be a esport basketball title.
 
# 194 24ct @ 09/04/15 02:57 PM
Yeah. These are all welcomed additions. Only thing is I don't want weak 1 on 1 defenders to be too good.

And I hope this means some guys are good help defenders but not good 1 on 1. Or they're good team defenders but not good 1 on 1. But this news looks like they recognized defense was terrible last year lol. Glad they had full court press with 1 guy. Like everything I read was music to my ears. Defense should definitely be fun.

But ultimately the game has to play like they say after cheesers get there hands on it lol. I'm almost at preorder status. Just need some park news now.

Man I'd really like those stadiums to be licensed as it really bothers me.

Just noticed but the reflections from the court seem to be just right this year, should be even more noticeable once we see it on a HDtv.
 
# 199 iFnotWhyNoT @ 09/04/15 03:06 PM
My only gripe after slowing down the speed is that sliding is still happening. For example the clip of Delly guarding Curry full court, Delly slides into position to body Curry.

I understand the intent there, the animation kinda SUCKED Delly into position probably because the person on the sticks did move accordingly to cut him off and with Currys momentum thats what happened. I can deal with that.

However, if im Curry tho and i see that i have space, i don't want to see an "elite" defender slide into place like that to cut me off.
