What's new

Picked up NBA 2K16 last night

I am very impressed with the game play and realism of the game. Last year's game had way too many glitches where you can dunk almost everytime from the sideline or shoot fadeway 3 point shots non stop with people in your face.
This year the outside shot is more realistic in terms of percentage made. Dunking is harder and defense is easier. If you try and dunk on people out of position you will get blocked. Dribbling in traffic you will lose the ball. If you try to throw really long passes you will get it stolen.
They easily focused on defense this year and the game is awesome so far.

Anyone have Xbox One with 2K16 or plan on it?
Sounds frustrating

harder fade away 3s and i can stop more unrealistic jam attempts? the kids at the teen center are in trouble!
 
Yes it is very frustrating for people who act like its NBA Jam or a 3 point contest.

Real team player and ball movement and good defense prevails in this game more the any other.

Yeah until people find a way to exploit the game like they do every year.

I just don't want to have a hard time dribbling around and if I work hard to get an open shot I want it to go in most of the time

Open shots guys will hit like they should. That is still there. Its the contested outside shot that is more realistic now.

Dribbling wasn't a huge change but I did realize I lost the ball more driving in traffic. Almost impossible to lose the ball last year

Is it still incredibly easy to score in the post?

I didn't do too many post moves last night. I ran a few with Favors and he dominated the Warriors but that was expected.


They moved the button that calls for a pick and roll so it took awhile to adjust to that. So far I have seen improvements on every level of the game.

Free throws I would miss constantly last year even though it was right on. Now it goes in when it should but only misses sometimes to make up for bad percentages.

The Shot meter is still there. You have to time your shot. I love that feature as you get better and better the more you play with the same team.

You expect Favors, who I'm sure isn't rated too highly in post offense on 2K, to dominate the Warriors, who I'm sure are rated pretty highly on defense with Green and Bogut?

Favors is a 82 overall. I am not sure on his post offense rating.
Green couldn't stop favors at all the 3 or 4 times I went to him.
Bogus never guarded him.
