Operation Sports is Going to NBA 2K (Gameplay impressions on 9/11)

05:02 PM - September 6, 2015 by DustinT

Hey OS, Senior Editor Dustin Toms (@DustinToms) here. Release season is upon us, and the next big NBA title is coming up.

We've been invited to spend a day with NBA 2K this Thursday, September 10. I'll be flying down to The Hangar and have hands-on experience with NBA 2K16, conversations with the developers and opportunities to capture some gameplay footage (which will debut on the Operation Sports YouTube channel). We will surely come back with even more information overload for OSers to try and process.

Now this is where you come in: what do you want to know about NBA 2K16? Post your questions here, or ask me directly on Twitter at @DustinToms. I'll take a list of the best questions with me, and have answers for you shortly after. If you ask me on Twitter, I'll reply directly to you!

Make sure you read through these links as well, as most of your questions may already be answered:

Fire away below, OSers!

Have the presentation packages been tweaked or received a complete overhaul what's up with the commentary team?

Will the online servers be up to par as well will we have the option to use custom rosters to play with friends online?

Thank You

Have the classic players apperance been improved?

In 2k15 there was a huuuge gap between them and current "face-scanned" players.

I would like to know if Michael Jordan and many of the other legends had their faces redone? Jordan's face looked pretty bad in 2k15

Will we be able to edit the number of teams in MYLEAGUE? A lot of people would like to replicate the NBA in the 80`s for example.

and classic teams' clothes that so bad

In MyCareer do we still have to play garbage minutes if we're a good player and the other team is getting blown out?(e.g., 80+ rating playing the last few minutes of the game when up by 20+).

# 128 BluFu @ 09/07/15 01:46 PM

1. Any simulation stats improvements? (BPG)

2. All those questions from the MyLeague/MyGM Q&A thread lol

# 129 STLRams @ 09/07/15 02:04 PM

Did they bring back historic presentation for the classic courts like they were in 2K12.

What steps have been taken to improve "End of Game highlights similar to those from prior years (e.g., 2K11)? To include music and best plays of the game. 3. What steps have been taken to add back "in game replays" to online league and custom games against live players similar to those incorporated against AI played games? As you can see, my questions are geared towards presentation, as i believe they would increase the overall quality of the game. Next Generation consoles should bring next generation realism.

+1 This!!!!!!

There will be Loobies for Online Ranked games?

For instance Pro/Default for casuals, Superstar/Sim for Simheads, and so on...

Cheers! ;-)

I wanna know if there's specific presentation improvement this year.

# 134 Cowboy008 @ 09/07/15 05:00 PM

Will the cpu team put their best defender on your best offensive player?

# 135 Crunky @ 09/07/15 05:05 PM

Are their tip out rebound animations, tip in animations and tip to self? Joakim Noah and Tyson chandler do it alot.

# 136 Crunky @ 09/07/15 05:22 PM

- Does the ai exploit mismatches

- How is the peremiter on ball defense lateral quickness of bigman can you easily beat them with your first step

- Did you have to size up to beat your man off the dribble or were you able to use your first step too blow past them

- Were the games more intense and physical

# 137 Jakeness23 @ 09/07/15 05:35 PM

Will we see Kevin Love make some of those full court outlet passes from time to time? Can we improve a player's pass rating to make him able to make those passes (especially for SFs and PFs).

Yes it was mentioned in one of the blogs; so if you do Cavs vs Bulls where LeBron is a SF and Butler is a SG, the CPU will automatically put Butler on LeBron as opposed to lets say Mike Dunleavy.

# 139 antdoggydogg @ 09/07/15 06:35 PM

Can we get a picture of what the Spurs's Boban Marjanovic looks like in the game hahaha
