OT: Who Pre-ordered NBA 2K16 and is pumped for Friday??

Running John Wall on the fast break is fun as hell. In other 2k games you could do that but it just feels different in this game.
 
I had heard you can really get out in front on fastbreaks this year, good to hear!

what I hated about the game last year was that even if you had a breakaway the defense could almost ALWAYS run you down and catch up to take away a big dunk or easy layup. Does that still happen in this game?

It was maddening.

I felt your pain, has been so frustrating in past 2k games. Can't wait to find out for myself this evening...
 
Read an article where they re-scaled many stats (which explains why all players overall ratings dipped). The new guy who is over the ratings complained how Jeff Teague, while fast, had a similar speed rating to John Wall, which was one of the things that made them re-scale things.

In other news, I just had some coach with a perm from Louisville come in and talk about all of the All-Americans they've had, and their 3 national titles. Needless to say, I may have to go to Villanova [laughing]

Have they re-scale Siva's speed yet?

Don't think he's in the NBA, so we'll never know. [laughing]

On another note, there's certainly more teams that weren't initially announced. Playing Wisconsin in the national championship, and they were never announced as a team confirmed to be in the game.

No, it looks like they fixed the speed on the fast break. I've only played 3 full game but it runs smooth on ps4.

Me too but looks like I'll have to wait another week or so. Oh well. At this moment, I don't have the free time I'll want to put in the game when I finally do get it.
 
I skipped 2K15, played 14 a lot, it seemed to have a cheese factor built in to make games close regardless of player stats, Relocating a team to Cincinnati and filling it with Cats sounds fun.
 
So I spent a good five hours in the game so far. The relocation deal, with the uniform creator is way cooler than I expected it to be. The physics are much improved, particularly on lay ups and dunks. It's definitely more difficult. The L2 trigger for posting up is old school but it works great. The my player is cool even though I'm an old white guy from the south who doesn't particularly identify with growing up in the projects in Harlem but whatever, the gameplay makes the storyline worth it.
 
I miss College Basketball 2K! Use to love playing those and trying to recruit players and building yourself up as a coach and singing a contract to coach the Wildcats!!
 
ok...

I messed around with it for about an hour and a half last night and knew how to trade away all the players on a particular team to get an all UK team. I chose Sacramento. I saw how to start a season doing that and just playing the Kings' schedule.

I went into MyTeam, chose Louisville as the city, Wildcats as the nickname, and saw that the computer applied players, play books, a coach, uniforms, and logos to my team but I couldn't figure out how to get rid of all that crap and customize it myself. I couldn't find where to edit a court and make it look how I wanted, where to edit the jerseys, where to get rid of the players that were assigned to me so I could put all the UK guys on there, etc. Basically it looked like I was gonna have to deal with what I was randomly given. Thought I'd be able to do all that and I didn't see how it's possible. Am I missing something?

When you set up a new my GM mode, you need to select the custom roster option at the set up and then use your saved roster that's set up how you like. In my league, you can make all the adjustments to court, jersey, team name etc on the fly. I believe in my GM though you either have to own the team or unlock the options to change designs through XP.
 
The 2K guys have apparently been working their butts off over the past year, can't believe how much they are cramming into this years game. Looking forward to trying out the rookie Cats and making my own personalized arenas should be pretty cool too. Xboxone Gamertag: Ozymandias4BB

I basically quit playing video games when they shut down NCAA2k. I play the show here and there and that's about it.

I've been buying lots of ammo and AR15's lately, so I'll just wait it out.

Recruiting 7 foot 2 three stars and watching them grow to seniors and 84 rating strong...........

Man, don't remind me. I spent hours and hours recruiting on that game.
