Multiplat NBA 2K15

[melbournemartin]

I adjust sliders to get realistic scores. I was playing 12 min quarters, played all 82 games plus playoffs, got some really nice stats.

Problem was it took me 4 and a half months to finish 1 season.

Oh yeah? That's impressive. Does FIFA have sliders though? I know AFL Live didn't. Also I suppose that in NBA the default quarters would be like 6 minutes so to go from 6 -> 12 isn't a huge jump. Going from 7 minute halves -> 45 in FIFA would be significant though.

FIFA has sliders although Im not enough of a soccer expert to really pick up the impact.

It astounds me that 45 minute halves arent even offered in FIFA.

I think the maximum is 15 minutes simply because EA don't have a good enough simulation of gameplay to offer realistic scores for a 45-min time period.

My suspicion was they dont allow it because winning 17-12 probs isnt realistic.

Does PES offer 45 minute halves?

EA probably could if they wanted but it would require a huge amount of effort to create gameplay that was balanced over 45 minute halves, and it would only be used by a very small amount of players.

The early era Fifa's had it, i used to play a 90 minute match at least once each installment. And yes scores were super unrealistic because of the length of the game, but it was still good to bash around.

I still love playing 2k, gameplay wise, but I was pretty shocked when I got 2k14 (for free mind you, so I can't complain too much) and there was so little added to the game and the VC saturation was just ridiculous. It's in the menus (buy more VC!) and you seem to earn it even slower than last year.

It used to feel like a basketball sim (a bloody good one) and now it feels like I'm perpetually playing a shitty Facebook app. I'd be livid if I paid full price for a game that's continually wanting me to pay more and more to actually get enjoyment out of the thing. I wasn't too upset when the 2k13 servers went down and I had to start a new career with skill points, to be honest.

If I get 2k15 it'll be for $20 or less, which is a shame considering in the past it was one of my most anticipated purchases for the year. 2k13 started the decline for me and it's fairly obvious that it's due to the VC system.

I doubt Live will be good for a few years but I really hope they can bring some proper competition in at some point.

Also, a small trailer was released. Not much in it tho.

Only announced for ps3/360 thus far tho. I imagine ps4/xbone will also get it or some improved version of it.

So MyLeague is a more customisable version of MyGM/Association mode with no VC involved? I'm sold.

 

[SugarShane]

Never played a 2K basketball game before but considering it when i get a PS4, what's the story with 3 point shootouts in them? Dude at work said something about either having to pay to unlock it or wait til you make it in career?

Sounds awesome! Really glad to hear they're still thinking of the offline player. They even make injuries sound fun. Also really looking forward to the the upgraded draft scouting and variable draft quality.

 

[Kickpuncher]

Will we ever get an option to relocate a team similar to how it's done in madden?

It would def be awesome, also an option for expansion every x amount of years would be swell.

It's amazing. They've done a 180 degree turn on how they've been treating offline, sim players.

Reading the bit about injuries in MyLeague, 16 body parts with their own durability rating sounds interesting.

Not good news for me planning to play as the Bulls.

- Rose injured knees
- Noah plantar fasciitis
- Taj plantar fasciitis
- Gasol vertigo

God help if anyone has Royce White on their team, "Royce White unavailable to play, will not board plane and traffic too heavy".

Pretty sure it mentions adjustable sliders. Otherwise, yeah, that would be ****ed.

Just on that trailer…


What in the **** is "Mild Lyrics"? Jesus Christ, they have a ****ing rating explanation for anything these days. Mild Lyrics? **** my mouth.

Im hoping VC is gone from myCareer.. I hate seeing team mates with million dollar salaries vs my 500VC... I mean wtf!

 

[Upgrayedd]

I can rag on it all i want how it went from the most realistic basketball game and hasn't really progressed from 2011....but i'll still sink in 300 hours into it, like i did with 2k11, 2k12, 2k13, 2k14....

 

[SnakeMan86]

Considering the Pre order pack comes with VC.... I think its gonna be another big part of it...
