The Glumslinger posted:I hope launch goes well Just as a piece of feedback by the way, I know your hype men (ronnie and LD and the crew) are trying to get hype levels to maximum with this continual dribbling of info and teasing stuff but by this point it's definitely gone a bit overboard. The game is gonna be out in like 2-3 days and we don't even have official info about all the game modes or in depth stuff about some of the ones that have been revealed, and that's pretty dumb. I don't even know what part of 2k you work at or whatever but holy crap it's just annoying now. Oh, and it would be nice to know when or if the PC preload is gonna happen.

What teams are you all going for? I'm planning as playing as a PG, was thinking about the Rockets or the Grizzlies but I'm open to suggestions on a fun team to play with.

I played PG for Rockets in 2k15 and it was a blast. Harden was like an automatic assist generator and Howard is there to rebound your jacked up threes. Only thing that sucked was that the GM AI traded DMO  I think I'm gonna do a big man for '16 though. I really enjoyed my PF/Center and just going hard for rebounds and putbacks. I'll probably try to join the Raptors since they are kinda weak at the 4

If you're too tall, you're stuck as strong because they filter by height for guards.

Last year I played a PG like literally everyone else in the world, maybe this time I'll try SF or something and just see who wants me. i never played last years, but 2014 passing was so bad. unless you were playing as all 5 players instead of player locked on your pg, 10 assists with less than 10 turnovers should have been an achievement.

I really liked being a SF and probably will go with that again. All the dunks, all the 3s, all the blocks. Plus the Blazers really don't have anything going on in that spot this year.

I hated having to just pick a team in offline career mode i would bet money there is. there's one in 2014, and this year has the whole directed by spike lee thing going on with college and going to the pros with your agent and poo poo. wouldn't fit to just be like "ok now pick your team."

YES! This video shows Kareem is back on the Showtime Lakers. Glad they will be worth playing as again. I'm probably going to end up having 3 Lakers teams in MyLeague mode. Does anyone else here stack MyLeague mode with as many all time greats as possible? Last year I basically traded anything but Dirk to get AI on the Mavs. Sending Dirk into retirement with a few extra virtual championships is a lot of fun. I don't think the fake Sixers enjoyed the careers of Monta and Parsons. Spacebump fucked around with this message at 16:39 on Sep 23, 2015 |

We all want them to not be garbage, but we all expect it at this point, it's happened every single year. Also, hooray, the steam preload started, only 46 gigs (lol).

Tae posted:The budget to make a server withstand 2k's opening week is probably enough to fund another tripe-A game Oh I mean for sure it's gonna be an issue no matter what at first, but the servers and many online functions remain in various states ranging from "barely functional" to "completely broken" for the entire year, and if you play on PC like me it's almost always trending towards completely broken. But I hope this year is a pleasant surprise Glumslinger, it would be awesome to have it both be an awesome single player NBA game and be the awesome multiplayer game that it can and should be.

The Duggler posted:You can't make an all around Jesus anymore Then what's the point? I got 2K15 at launch and just last week tried MyGM. The league-wide redraft leads to some really amazing what-ifs. It seems like ignoring players concerns completely vs promising more/less training/minutes works out better. Then you can't break promises and morale stays high from winning I guess.

From the official twitter: "You can now pre-load #NBA2K16 on @steam_games! You can play on Thur. 9/24 @ 9pm PST (midnight EST) if you pre-order! " I was hoping for midnight local time or bst, but this is still pretty good.

Yea the 4 gig is the 'this literally is what you need to launch the game', the rest will download. You can go to it and press triangle and scroll down to details or something in the menu and see the download progress in terms of 4g/42g downloaded stuff.

Tae posted:The budget to make a server withstand 2k's opening week is probably enough to fund another tripe-A game I don't think it's the opening week stuff that's the problem. For better or worse we all know and expect any AAA game's online features to be completely broken for up to a month after launch. The problem is they only ever really progress from "completely broken" to "technically functional."
