NBA 2K15

Recommended Posts

Anybody looking at getting this when its released?

 

The latest trailer has been released and it looks pretty awesome.

The graphics look great and their is aspects of the trailer that impress me and hopefully are included in the game, like the player entrances and Shaq and Ernie in the tv studio!

 

I've played the last few of these and really enjoyed the career mode, lots of customisation and the introduction of a story line in 2k14 on next gen. Hopefully there is more of the same!

Will pick it up, 2K set the benchmark when it comes to sports games, always look fantastic and play extremely well, their servers are not the most stable and are prone to being down quite a bit though!

From what I've read they are focussing more on polishing 2k15 instead of making too many additions, 2k14 looked amazing but there were some weird things in the gameplay and things like rebounding we're completely off, hopefully with a few tweaks it will be near perfect as presentation wise they get it spot on year on year!

Would be good if 2K gave it a polishing, annoys me in career mode how you cant have different customisation types for when you're playing at home or on the road! I'm constantly having to leave the game mode so I can get the right colour accessories for my player.

 

They're also bringing back or altering the crews mode, Chris Smoove (Youtuber, check him out if you haven't he's mint on 2K) seems really happy about that he said it used to be really good on 2K10 or 11 and then they scrapped it.

 

I also like the MyTeam game mode on next gen, offered more types of packs to buy and new game types like domination. Just hope they make the packs a bit more cheaper with both VC and MyTeam points.

Hate how they haven't sorted this in recent years, such a ball ache having to keep changing it. I get to the point where I check the fixture list to see if I have a little run on the road or at home so I don't have to keep changing my sleeve color after every game

 

Would be good they just set it as whatever the shirt color is, your sleeve/headband are the same. Only problem with this though, players like Melo tend to mix it up, like sometimes he'll wear blue or orange headband and blue or orange sleeves even if they're playing at home.

 

Maybe it would be handy if they had a kit selection screen in mycareer mode where you can choose your jersey color (default if you're at home), sleeve color, headband, hex pads etc etc. I think there's something similar to this on Madden where they let you choose helmet color, shoe color etc etc 

 

Loving the trailer though, player faces (as usual) look on point, graphics (as usual) look insane. Can't wait to play it

I like it on 2K14 how they interview the players at halftime or a coach at the press conference afterwards, great how its their actual voices as well!

I traded one of my players and a draft pick for Igoudala(sp) from golden state... He's hilarious when he's being interviewed.. Just does the weirdest gurn face I've ever seen!

Yeah Smoove is great, seems to be in the know first all the time as well so a great information source!

I'm hoping that because they have had a whole year to make it for the newer consoles it will be a completely solid game on release, the game on PS4/XB1 had less customisation options than the 360 and ps3!

Like you say though this game is far beyond most sports games for attention to detail, all of the commentary, interviews and everything are the best I have seen in a game, i would still recommend 2k14 if people were fully interested in basketball as it's fairly cheap now but worth the price

Smoove makes playing on Hall Of Fame look easy, racking up 40 points, 20 assists and 10 rebounds every game as a pg... ridiculously good

What's its selling point this year? I haven't played in a few years but there's usually always some sort of feature that temps me in. Michael Jordan, the Legends etc.

 

Agree 100% about it being the most in depth sports game going, I wish they'd get involved in making a football game. Fifa and PES have been getting away with their awfulness for too long.

This is why EA won't let 2K make an NFL game because they know 2K would absolutely destroy them

2K have announced some new features and game modes

 

Park

 

You can take your MyPlayer online to team up with friends or strangers for a game of pickup basketball. The games can be played on a street court or inside at the Jordan Rec Center equipped with NBA rules and officials.

 

There is also the stage which is similar except you can wager VC on the match

I signed with the Kings, got two 10 day contracts then a guaranteed deal until the end of the season. Just became a starter as well, will probably test free agency as our record is something like 19-41 so the play offs is pretty much out of reach!

I'm with the Atlanta Hawks. Was in the same boat with the two 10 day contracts and then getting a permenant deal till the end of the season. I'm 4 games away from the end of the regular season and it looks good for the playoffs as we've now started to win a few games (thanks to the coach actually picking me!). Had an awesome game against the SA Spurs where I scored a 3 pointer to take the lead with 20 seconds remaining and held out to get the win!

 

Enjoying it alot so far. One thing that is annoying though is when running back to mark someone, it can change your player to mark like 4 times in 1 move. Before you know it, you've allowed an inside pass and your man to score because of marking someone else.

I know what you mean with that!

 

I get frustrated with my team mates missing open up lay ups or not shooting when they're wide open. I like the detail into picking your entrance music and sound effects for when you do certain things like make a 3. Starting to get bored of always seeing my high school coach lurking around the arena tunnels after some games lol

The detail 2K have gone into on this game is pretty impressive, introducing a story mode freshened the game mode up and the different types of cut scenes there is now is better with in game interview, press conferences and Jackson Ellis etc

 

Also realising the importance of earning and saving up VC in order to improve your player or buy accessories is much better than the fifa catalogue coins system imo
