Old illnesses back again :(

Fri Oct 10, 2014 9:07 pm

Disappointed by poor optimisation,playing game about 60 fps
on pc but nowhere near quality of 2k14's gameplay because
same old issues from 2k12/13 back again with 2k15:

1.Massive fps drops(15-25fps) during replay transitions and cam angle switch,
2.Stuttering during after basket cuts,
3.Camera moves through inside of players or other weird places during replays

I hope it resolves with new drivers or updates and
dont have to wait for 2k16 for fully enjoying the game.

You got that right. It seems like they enjoy screwing things with the game... next 2k games will become shittier and shittier untill they release new engine

Let's hope for a patch that fixes at least some of these problems

Would you mind sharing your PC specs?

It's not poor optimization. Your video card is just not that good. Look here:

Your card is way way down there on the list. (it's a laptop, so you can't expect to have a good card unless you're willing to pay $2000 for a gaming laptop). You should be thankful that you can play the game at all. Not the programmers' fault. We PC gamers complain when they give us shitty current gen graphics. But then we complain when they give us great graphics because our rigs can't run it. Get a decent desktop.

The recommended specs for 2k15 is 9 tiers from the top (on the THG chart). The minimum is 22 tiers from the top. Yours is 22 tiers from the top meaning you barely made the minimum requirements. If you're getting 60 frames per second on occasion, that's some pretty awesome optimization in my book.
