NBA 2K16: Biggest Pet Peeve?

Re: NBA 2K16: Biggest Pet Peeve?

Foot planting is the worst I have ever seen in a sports games, there's no feel to player movement in my opinion.

My worry is they can't implement this without making the players feel like they're running in quicksand.

Players already respond terribly when trying to move/change direction.

I wouldn't even call this a pet peeve, but more of an observation.

But has anybody else noticed that the media and commentators aren't even wearing their headsets? Literally every one has their headsets sitting on the table instead of being on their heads.

Just kinda found that funny.

Re: NBA 2K16: Biggest Pet Peeve?

my 2k pet peeves are:

-Any attempt at a steal by the human player results in a reach in foul or triggers a foul animation(I'm not even talking about spamming the steal button, this happens after a single press of the button). They have to tune this in 17, there should be no reason the only way to get legit steals are by waiting for the cpu to bump the ball up against a player and it becoming a loose ball.

-Cpu double teams are OP yet double teams initiated by the user towards the cpu are ineffective.There needs to be balance.

CPU offensive players can't reject screens or go the opposite way when receiving a screen. It is obviously hard coded. They will 100% go in the screener's direction without fail. (Hopefully I'm explaining this clearly enough)

This makes it way easier to defend as u know which direction the CPU will go every time on an on ball screen

Biggest pet peeve ? How core gameplay went turbospeed downhill from 2k14 until now. I won't bother to single every thing but with next generation graphics came up big time and gameplay went south (defense, AI teammates, rebounding, isomotion, post-game)

And then all the reviews give this game 9/10. Even the community saying stuff like it's the best sports game ever. The graphics are great, but there are so many gameplay flaws. They hype foot planting this year, yet the players still slide on the floor, and movement is just terrible overall. They hype the mycareer story, and it turns out to be He Got Game 2. If 2k keeps regressing, I could honestly see live surpassing it by live 19 or 20.

2K16 in a nutshell. Play good defense for 23 seconds and either the jackass CPU decides to bite on a stupid pump fake or your player randomly falls on the floor for no reason and gets called for a blocking foul.

Since it's a pet peeve thread, mine is really small and kind of dumb, but, when I play in real life, I wear prescription goggles/rec specs. Despite the fact that there are a few players that have these (Hinrich, Otto Porter, etc), I don't get them as an option for my MyPlayer or created players. It's super dumb and nitpicky, but that's something that I think would be really cool to see for me personally.

If you complete the Kareem connection in MC, then you get his goggles. I agree 100% with the point you're making, but this at least might provide you with an option to have some eyewear.

Re: NBA 2K16: Biggest Pet Peeve?

Player movement on defense and while running plays. Your guy will be wide open but the moment you initiate a pass he seems to run behind a defender despite you using icon passing and letting go of the left stick. That turnover along with players bumping into each other and throwing off entire plays for 3-5 seconds are such pet peeves to me I put down the game. I've been playing this game for over 10 years but those things made me give it a rest this year.

I actually found that out a couple days later. Thought about deleting that, but said "eh, maybe no one will notice." Thanks a lot. [emoji14] LOL.


Anyway, it'd be great to have more options in terms of eyewear (not to mention options that are available right away, and ones that are a bit more updated than from the 80s.)

Re: NBA 2K16: Biggest Pet Peeve?

How about when your opponent wins the tip and the first thing they do is throw a lead pass to their center for an easy bucket. I swear this **** happens EVERYTIME. How is it that as soon as you win the tip your center is already out of position?




I swear the first thing I do when I lose the tipoff is to run back on defense with my PF.

This crap...

Re: NBA 2K16: Biggest Pet Peeve?

I have three that are linked...player movement and/or physics, defensive AI, and lack of fouls being called.

Re: NBA 2K16: Biggest Pet Peeve?

The A.I. in general. Sometimes it's just bad basketball. It affects the stats if you pay attention. No fundamentals. Wide open, knock-down shooters cut to the paint where the defense is waiting, rotations are pretty awful at times (this affects point guard assist numbers because they rotate wrong), transition defense is just plain bad & players don't box out man (This, of course affects big man rebound numbers). The computer has to do better.

MyLeague DPOY:

It always goes to the best rebounder, and that's infuriating. I had a guy with the following per game stats last season:

33pts, 6rbs, 9st, 2 stls, 2 blks and kept opponents to FG 37-38%.

Anthony davis:
22pts, 13rbs, 3ast, .5 stls, 1.9 blks and kept oppontes to FG 44% .

He has won it 3 years straight. It bugs the crap out of me.
