NBA 2K15
NBA 2K15 was released on 7 October, 2014.Twitter

NBA 2K15, the basketball simulation gaming title from developer Visual Concepts and publisher 2K Sports has been facing issues ever since its launch. However, the publisher has promised a patch soon.

After claiming that the online issue has been resolved, 2K Support had asked the players to "Please reboot & let us know." Players were still complaining that they were facing the issues that the company claimed as solved. Later the company said that it will investigate the issues.

Below are the tweets from 2K, giving us a timeline of the issues and the active participation of the 2K team to keep players in the loop in addressing their concerns.

2K's Ronnie revealed that though the team was working on the issue and resolved one issue, another issue still remained and that they are working to fix it. He also asked players to tweet him the screenshots of the connectivity issues they faced.

NBA 2K15 was released on 7 October 2014 and since its launch, it has been facing server issues, issues in FaceScan technology, accessibility issues on MyPark and so on.

Glitches that Need a Patch

A Redditor, NickTheBullsFan started a thread on the glitches that need to be patched in NBA 2K15. Below are the list of glitches from players:

  • After a timeout of the opposite team, you sometimes can't move the guy guarding the inbounder.
  • Doris Burke glitch with the invisible player and some free agents having the wrong season stats (especially the scrubs at the bottom).
  • Unable to access MyCarreer for a week straight and then when accessed, all the upgrades were reset and all that VC went down the drain.
  • When editing a player's signature shot, the shot base animation doesn't change and you need to go to practice or the game to check out if it fits.
  • Game crashes in both MyGM and MyTeam.

Another Redditor, chillplease laid down the blue print (wishlist) of how the patch should look like when it is released by 2K, detailing various issues in NBA 2K15:
