I do not hear you, I do not see you, I will not let you get into the Duggler's head with your bring-downs.

Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
Biggest problem I have with 2k15 (as someone that came from 2k14 pc) is the load times. Between Inquisition and this, I'm doing a lot of 3DS short sessions in between.

Okie doke, add me. I'm brb_alcohol. Maybe bigblindjeef will be on tonight. If not, I have a bunch of friends i've picked up in Rivet city who are really good. It turns out a lot of people like to play with you if you have an athletic big man, which I do. :)

Got 2K15 today. Thank you nice dudes for steering me back my roots and not giving in to Live. I used to play 2K every single night for hours and hours running franchises for years. It was my favorite thing, hopefully I'll get that feeling back after checking out of the series for a few years.

when you guys play the park is it normal to play with randoms who don't understand the basic idea of passing?

Every park game I play is 7 foot big men who don't play defence and go straight for the dunk. Sadly it works most of the time

Because they actually get their real in game player models as their myplayers, 2K hooks that poo poo up. A bunch of NBA guys play in the park pretty regularly on PS4.

I get 10 boards per game on HoF My Career as a under 7 ft Point Guard, can't imagine it'd make too much difference, it just seems to be based on position more than anything.

Also I started a new career on the Rockets because on my other save the AI made crazy stacked teams and left me with a bunch of poo poo. In the end I hadn't even heard of half my team, it's never a good sign when they don't even have pictures in game. Rockets are really fun to play with as PG, it's a pleasure to play with Howard & Harden since they make nearly all their shots.

I think you need a certain level of rebounding to be able to do putback dunks, and it helps later on for games you sim, but it seems worth it only as an afterthought

I have a slightly different perspective. In the park (where I do most of my stuff now) rebounding does matter. 80 gets me by with a 6'9'' maxed out athlete PF, but there are some games where I am hosed. Real fundamentals like boxing out help out there as they do in the career, but there are just some games where guys shithouse you because they clearly maxed it out or at least have a higher rebound.

Thanks for the advice. I'm going improve rebounding to ~75 and see if I need to upgrade it more to make Wilt 2.0

Is anyone else suddenly having problems with signing in to 2K's servers and/or MyPark lag once you can finally sign in? I spent half an hour trying to get it to sign in last night and once I got to the park it was so laggy I could barely play. My internet connection is fine as far as I can tell, and I can use other games' online services without issue.

E: Spelling. Also, it just refused to sign in again.

I just started the game up and it won't seem to connect to the servers. My internet is fine so it's definitely something on their end.
