Just played 2 games on superstar. Man this is jokes.
First off, its way to easy to score in the post. Was getting buckets consistently with Gortat and Humphries on Joakim Noah (who has a 90 post defense rating). Same back down to turnaround layup move. On the flip side it's just as impossible to defend the post, so I guess it's fair but overall it still sucks.
2nd game I played was Clips vs GS. Decided to just go with Steph Curry and skip passing. Defense never adjusted except for the occasional double team. But like dude said, if you come off the screen there's no hedge defense so Curry is always open. Oddly he doesn't make a lot of 3s going to his left, but going towards the basket or to his right he's money 75% of the time.
Canned layup/prostep animations are out of control. I had Paul Pierce gathering just inside the 3point line and somehow sliding all the way to the rack at full speed. Guarding these canned animations is nearly impossible so just hope they miss.
Last thing, minor complaint, fatigue doesn't appear to be scaled down to the length of the game. Maybe I just missed that setting. What was weird though is that Klay Thompson got significantly more fatigued than Curry even though Steph was doing all the dribbling and shooting.

I was convinced it was on its way to being the greatest sim ever. Talk about epic fail...

Saw the NBA Live was getting killed on twitter.
EA needs to just stop. NBA Live is done.

Jesus Christ. Why are their blunders so epic
Their presentation, and graphics are out of this world. Seriously.
But the gameplay is strange / weird. The players move all weird, and their bodies look just...weird.

Man they were on the right track but went and ****** it all up.
And these pics/vids of glitches in the demo are not a good look.
2k16 isn't going to be glitch free come launch, because let's be real, no game is perfect out the box. But given the downward spiral of the series since Live 10 giving consumers the first impressions of your game in the form of a glitch filled demo is not a good look.
Might be them for EA to rethink their strategy and focus on new NBA Jam game or preferably NBA Street.

The frame rate on my demo has dropped tremendously. I don't know if its something I did but the game looks even more awkward than before.
They really need to scrap this garbage and just come back next year with NBA Street.

Ncaa Basketball 10 had even better off ball controls and motion offense. No basketball game to this date has been able to replicate the spacing and movement of this game. I mean just look at it below. My lord
