Access Granted: We suck at NBA 2K16 & The Taken King

[@kieransageant]

Nathan looks like a really tired 16 year old.

[@L1LT4T3R]

LOL I can't

[@dwilson334]

About help with NBA 2k16. I have bought and played the last 5 or 6 and enjoy them a lot. I'm not the best at it, and it is a little difficult to tell you how to be better at the game, but there are a couple of things that I did that helped me out a lot. First, if the option still exists in 2k16 (having not yet played it), there is an option that will show you how well you are doing at shooting (as in, if you are releasing the ball at the height of your jump or not) as well as if the shot you're taking is a good shot for that player (gives you a grade of some sort). These help you to find the rhythm of when each player's shot is best to release and where they are better at shooting from. Second, remember it is a simulation game and not an arcade style game. You will need to either learn and call the plays or your team (turn on the option that shows you where each character is supposed to be on the floor for each play), turn on auto play calls (still probably turn on the option to show the plays on the court so you know where people are going to be moving), or get really used to playing a Pick and Roll game, so just learn the Pick control feature. Without plays, it can sometimes be difficult to get a good look at a shot. Third, I'm not sure if any of the crew are fans of the NBA, but simply put, the more you know about the people you're playing against, the better. For example, in the clip, you were playing against Sacramento. Rondo, their point guard, is notoriously bad at shooting from a distance. When on Defense, this means you can play off him more and focus more towards the middle of the paint or helping defend passing lanes. Because he is bad at shooting, you don't want to be too close to him or he'll just run past you, force your defense to collapse, and probably give it to Cousins who will eat you alive inside. Also, knowing what position the players on your team play will make it easier to make sure you are guarding who you are supposed to be, stopping as many defensive breakdowns. Finally, just really familiarize yourself with the controls. That helped me out a lot. Not sure if any of this helps, but good luck!

[@Ravinghamster]

Absolutely loved Dave/Dan's face when trying to work out the panda thing before cracking up

[@TUKMAK]

I like how these guys never lost sight of their fans. Especially now that they're over 750,00 subs. Actually, it seems like they're more engaged with their audience then ever, including comments and all. Thanks Access.

[@CBZero]

PSAccess has a great team and made great vids as always. Been here since you guys had 200k subs and I am happy that you are getting close to having a million. Could you please make a video dedicated to JRPG games you have played, are currently playing or jrpgs that you are looking forward playing to in the future. Thanks in advance.

[@TheScorpionXV]

Hi Playstation Access, do you have room for another segment in PS Access, I was thinking of one called Rob Rages, along those lines, where commenters set the most difficult challenges from down the years and see Rob's reactions.

[@Tiredtapshoes]

Amazing

[@welshnightmare7245]

+☬The Welsh Dragon☬ welsh for the win

[@oscarfilson515]

You guys are at 750k!!!! Congrats!! You guys totally deserve it.

[@oscarfilson515]

Here's to 1,000,000

[@rohanthakur6462]

+Oscar Filson Yeah, I believe they should have more subscribers though, they deserve it

[@metaknight3353]

Squad goals: Get an S rank on every mission in MGSV:TPP

[@TaupeMagician]

+Meta Knight (Behind the mask) Good luck with that

[@amrit999ify]

#301 Suns rising. Can't sleep. Video soon. I must have it. The precious. It will be mine. I will be king.

[@amrit999ify]

I was first! lol the waiting paid off

[@theawesomeleprechaun]

dave is actually adorable in the ps1sie, it suits him a lot also congrats on 751 at time of writing

[@philipgapinski357]

My squad goal for the rest of this year is to finish the witcher 3 because Nathan is also aiming for that :D But I will do it on new game+ since I finished it last week and can't wait to get back to gwent playing and monster slaying! Thanks for a great show and I hope you have a great time in my country Sweden! :)

[@crisp]

You guys are like extended family. Also…..Nath, Dave and Rob, you treat us tremendously with your fantastic weekly shows (Access Granted & Rob's Friday Feature), but where's Hollie? When will she get a show of her own and grace us with her presence on a weekly basis?

[@chingpongionglong]

Update to my Squad goals: Brutality 101 trophy, nailed it after hundreds of tries...FINALLY!! Tnx for mentioning me in the video

[@chingpongionglong]

Btw, i also put in my vote on Delsin for the golden joystick. I feel dirty for not voting on my fellow countryman (pewdiepie) tho. Delsin Rodent, you go ahead and win this now. Go, go, go!

[@77jakecsnake]

NBA 2k16 tips 1) try changing the camera to "2K" so you can get a better view of your player on the court. 2) treat the game kind of like football (soccer). pass the ball around to get an open or easier shot (check out teamwork basketball plays on youtube to get ideas), also get to know some players, because some are better than others in 1v1 situations to bail you out on tight situations. 3) check out the tutorial vids.

[@ROP1509]

Hey guys, great vid as always. I think you guys should do the one on Onesie challenges where one person plays and the other watches. There's more tension when one person is watching, plus the extra taunting that comes along with it!

[@paullloyd1358]

I'm going to be at EGX on Friday too, as part of my university course. Will have to come round and say hi to you guys.

[@TedsCoasterChannel]

Congrats to you for 750.000 subs!

[@jdgonzo1982]

thanks for the channel guys, your videos make me happy :)

[@matthew5418]

You (and we?) made it! 750,000 subscribers congrats!

[@TottiMessiTorres]

As I watch this video, your subscriber count is 751,369. So err...nice one. Congrats. But if you want to get to 1 million, we're gonna need to see more Delsin. He's pretty much the glue holding the whole channel together.

[@RandomAshuri]

I've got to say I love this Playstation community, without startin' any fanboy wars, I am mainly an Xbox gamer but play the Playstation for Uncharted and The Last of Us, keep up the good work guys!

[@Ragnarok2887]

Woo! You read out my comment. Squad goal complete! :) CONGRATs on reaching 750k subscribers Playstation Access. Best channel on KZbin. Next stop 1 million. Keep up the great work.

[@nickpattrick]

NBA 2k can seem very overwhelming for those who are new to the game, it's a complex game and there's a lot to learn but here 's a few tips to get you guys started -Switch the camera from broadcast to 2k. It's a much better angle and it becomes much easier to pass to the right player that way (If you're still struggling use icon pass). So you won't be throwing the ball all the way down the court resulting in a turnover. -On defence mark the opposite player that's assigned to the player you're controlling. you can see where that player is on the floor by looking at the arrow pointing from the circle below your controlled player. -Try running the Pick and Roll when on offence, and learn a few basic post moves like the turnaround jumper (KOBE!!) and maybe play around with a few plays from the play calling menu (Fist Down plays are a good time) -Work for open shots. Open shots have a much higher chance of dropping when a player shoots unguarded. stepbacks are also a good way to free up a little bit of space for a shot. -Knowing your players. Knowing who can do what on your team helps so much so check your player's stats beforehand to see what they're good at. Have fun playing guys!! hope to see some gameplay/improvements soon :)

[@muckymoe5619]

I have some tips for NBA lads. When on the ball dribble backwards and past the halfway line; that's a back court violation. When going for a 3 pointer release at the height of the jump (The circle under your player will light up). Also, take your time when attacking, if you rush you'll fumble or shoot a really bad basket attempt. Hope this helps :P

[@robertdixon1189]

Good old fashioned Pong for the One on Onesie challenge!!

[@pavitraverma7533]

I get into the 301 club with almost every video on this channel, Shows my dedication B) Not to brag though lol. I have surpassed my last weeks squad goal, To survive temptations to play MGS V during exams. My this weeks squad goals is to complete MGS V and Tearaway Unfolded just in time for The Nathan Drake Collection, Time to complete Uncharted 2 for the 9th time, Uncharted 3 for the 7th time and Uncharted Drakes Fortune for the first time! Keep up the great work :D

[@jameswebster556]

My word you do need help guys with NBA 2K, as a bit of veteran of playing the game and playing it (actually) at secondary school, I have the following tips. Backcourt violation basically means you can't step back over the halfway line! Always shoot when your free, if someone is in your face, don't shoot, pass! Don't stay in the paint (i.e the different colour floor) for any period of time with the ball; your only allowed 3 seconds.

[@raymondv.m4230]

squad goal complete: My first comment to appear on access granted! feels awesome :D. Thanks for making me apart of this lol. New squad goal: S rank all of phantom pain missions play and beat mad max play the taken king at least once

[@RingyUWE]

Got to be PES or FIFA next week for one on onesie, would be so funny just for the recations. Keep up the great work guys Loving your work. #RobArmy

[@rprules]

yay you have 750k subs - so well deserved - best channel ive subscribed to

[@PlayStationAccess]

+Hardish Panesar Aw thanks man :) Nath

[@rprules]

woah! Nathan replied to my comment! awesome

[@RussoPictures]

Hey guys, love the channel! I recommend that you watch a few real NBA games to get the jist of how offense and defense works in basketball, as well as the calls the ref makes, etc. I also have a few quick tips: don't be so quick to shoot, stop moving to get a cleaner shot, pass more often to get an open shot, don't force shots if the defender is on you tight, and don't try to steal it so often. After watching your gameplay it seems like you guys have a lot to learn about the sport, no offense. Keep up the great work and videos! I'm looking forward to the 750k special

[@cjnovo992]

Okay i'll try to help with NBA, as a scottish guy..its not exactly the sport i grew up watching but picked up a few things during my gametime on ps4, dont go behind the half way line once you cross it, you need to get past the half way line from passing the pass after the other team as scored you have 7 seconds to get across it if not it will become a foul and the other team will get the ball, use the double tap down button on the anolog to do a dribble move which creates space, try time your shots dont just hold onto it until he shoots it just keep it balanced every player has a different sweet spot depending on there skills if they have a 3 beside them there good at three pointers, they are shot outside the box so try get them when wide open otherwise dont go for them there risky and hard to puill off, if the CPU is charging at you hold 3 which makes your guy hold his family jewels and if they run into you its given as a foul its a easy way to win the ball back, dont tap the tackle button more then twice otherwise you will do a automatic foul which can be useful if the CPU has someone who isnt good shooting on the ball run and tackle him 3 times force him to shoot from the lline which will is easier to explain once you see it and 9 times out of 10 they will miss it so if your behind by a few points pick on the worse player on the team. hope this help nate rob hollie and dan....also the position PG is like the creative midfielder/ Quarterback means there ususally the most balanced player in the squad and cable of doing better with passing and hitting threes, try golden state warriors they have the best shooting will help you out to get used to the movements

[@thenoblemanisdead]

Squad Goal: Complete the King's Fall Raid before my birthday (the 25th).

[@TUKMAK]

+Bruce Wayne wicked my birthday's the 26th, goodluck mate

[@thenoblemanisdead]

TUKMAK thanks, let's hope I can get to a high enough light first. :)

[@vishekdutta8621]

Holy shot I was included in the video , thanks ! . Side note : it's pronounced DATA, oh but never,ind . Hello from India

[@fudroysmith7948]

301 club! why else would I wake up on Mondays? you guys are great!

[@davidmuzzall375]

I live in Australia so Access granted is the best way to end my Monday's by far, thanks to you guys for continuing the videos 😊 My new #squadgoal is to 100% complete Mad Max by November 10 when Fallout 4 is released Also you guys should do a 4way PS1sie challenge with Rob and Hollie on a map of Trials Fusion, robs reaction will be worth it alone.

[@robertnel4937]

squad goal: actually buy a game without staying up until 2am researching about it. will be a first...

[@steffanevans3953]

Nah impossible

[@welshnightmare7245]

+Steffan Evans I'm welsh too.............:)

[@raymondv.m4230]

Nath I believe you would love the phantom pain! Because I feel so strongly about this, I feel you and Dave should have a onsie challenge! One v Onsie: use the companion app to navigate your teammate through a mission in the phantom pain. who ever uses the companion best wins! The grade at the end of the mission will be the grade of the companion user

[@MrLinkolin]

Wow, having my comment featured on Access Granted feels like being granted a Knighthood from the 301 Queen! There is much pride in my bosom yet! XD

[@fizzypurple5495]

Hey Nathan! I saw your FIFA review on gamespot!

[@mircculii]

750 000 subs! Can't wait the Q&A

[@RecoiliusGaming]

Great video, funny and witty. As for nba 2k16 tips, basic tips: do the tutorial training. They had it in 2k15. Should be in 2k16. During the game, the game will give you an arrow to let you know who should be defending. Don't do long passes. It's basketball, not FIFA. Long passes are bad. Last tip, friend me on psn and contact me. I live in Norway so we're on the same time zone, and I can give some other quick tips. I preordered 2k16 and it comes out this Friday I believe. Keep up the great show!

[@baseds8]

Has Dave lost some weight? Looking good mate. Keep up the good work.

[@TheZimmerman69]

As far as 2K goes, try changing your camera angle, I personally use the "2K" camera angle and it helps.

[@joehavard838]

one way to make 2k easier is to use the 2k camera rather than broadcast. Also just pass it around to find the open shot and try to take advantage of size mismatches :)

[@Arrowfangify]

Dont know whether or not i should buy The Taken King or NBA2k16, any suggestions?

[@benfrey3024]

On a compilation of 2k16 gameplay i saw a few days ago there was a clip of the Sacramento Kings up 23-7 over the Chicago Bulls and there were so many comments saying that would never happen. Now i know where it came from XD

[@Ashleyfcc]

it will be really awesome if u guys can make more Let's Play vids, with ur reactions at the corner like what u did with outlast whistle blower

[@Entstinct]

Love the lunch time games segment.

[@danielbutler7735]

well done guys your vids they just get better and better. ps i love Mr Smiles aka Delsin

[@smokingrace400]

Hey guys! Love the show...has there been any more news on changing your PSN Tag? i heard a while ago Sony was considering the option but heard nothing since :( Keep up the great work!

[@jeremyrockatansky]

squad goals... I had to quit witcher 3 when mgsv dropped so I finished Peacewalker and Ground Zeroes so that I was caught up. Now I just need to finish TPP, back to Witcher 3, at least get past the first boss in Bloodborne, Mad Max, and Syndicate by Nov 10th!

[@Ledrang]

Finished one of my old Squad Goals of completing The World of Darkness raid on Final Fantasy 14: A Realm Reborn, took almost 2 hours of queuing to get in, i need a new book to read :)

[@MrTobz918]

Best thing for nba2k16 is do offline scrimmages against eachother you just pick up things so much easier that way

[@Raysomona]

I swear I head Dave talking bout chameleons on ESO yesterday around 3pm pst hahaha sounded a lot like him to the point where my family thought I was watching youtube.

[@lullylully11]

Wait Nathan Did you review FIFA16 on gamespot or is it another nathan ditum

[@TaupeMagician]

My family laughed at me when I told them I wanted to be a comedian. and they're still laughing now #301club

[@chaeandrews217]

Nathan, you should try some of Daves wardrobe! You always wear black and his T-shirts are cool!

[@dadofboys4956]

Woo hoo! Made it to the #301club! My squad goal to get as many optional objectives in MGS5 missions!

[@thefaceplant4278]

Is the 301 club the first 301 commenters or the first 301 viewers because if it's the first one, I want to thank the academy (and also Rob, Nath, Dave, Dan (of course), Hollie and Delsin) for this coronation as the king of the 301 club! (I am number 219). P.S I love all your videos!

[@aydenshepherd60]

What if.... we switched things up and did a Friday Feature WITHOUT ROB..... and an access granted WITH Rob?

[@JoeDrummer1000]

Nath, have you managed to finish the kings fall raid?

[@Mirha77]

Nolan North as ghost sounds like C3PO to me. I miss Dinklage in some parts, but the more I play, the more I acclimate. Soon, I'll have forgotten and Dinklebot will seem like nothing but a dream. "We've woken the HIVE!"

[@dakotaadams7921]

Im lvl 16 on Destiny and have been playing solo i feel very accomplished getting this far. hopefully I'll move sometime soon to a place with faster internet so i can play with friends.

[@Jhaskedakes]

Bucket list goal accomplished made it in the 301 club. Thank you to everyone who made it possible.

[@burning_out]

One on Onesie challenge. See who can Be The "Best" Batman. Play a combat AR challenge on Arkham Knight and whoever gets the highest score wins. Also, good job on hitting 750k. Best get that video up before you hit 1 million :)

[@metaled16]

New Squad Goal for me is to reach 1000 trophies by the time The Uncharted Collection comes out. I'm only 16 away but I'm determined not to start any new games

[@ThatWookieGuy]

HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY DAN!

[@allenboughen]

How can I get the NBA demo? Couldn't find t in the PS Store...

[@Tiredtapshoes]

NBA 2k tip #1... They are not goals, they are baskets. Get Rob playing NHL when 16 comes out. There is nothing funnier than his constant yelling at himself. Keep up the good work guys!

[@Grimdel123]

#301Club loving the channel guys (and girl), keep on being awesome! I know you will, but just wanted to tell you anyway :)

[@kindrake7346]

ahaahh I pre ordered NBA 2k16 can't wait to play it Friday, but yeaaaa you guys will most certainly need help playing like that lol my first suggestion.... learn the rules of basketball aha and after that really get used to the directional button passing :) And you guys should play Destiny at the same time, I love the banter. Best of luck to all of you guys and keep up the great content :)

[@keia39]

You need to get Rob as a guest on One on Onesie. The world needs to see his true personality :P

[@aisthefisherman]

Recovering from surgery and making the #301club made me feel a bit better 😌

[@runningman1941]

Don't think il ever make the #301 club because of work :( however well done on reaching over 750,000 I bet 1 million by Janurary keep up the good work and awesome videos guys!!

[@mitarrrrrrrrrrr]

nathans rage was real on Destiny

[@BeautyIsJustAMask]

[@madness1931]

Oh yeah my squad goal is to hold in my Persona hype, and to complete MGSV in time for Fallout 4.

[@333cals]

[@madness1931]

Calumn Scholtz I don't want to spoil things here but I believe (from what I've heard) I'm half way in on chapter 2.

[@333cals]

Madness1 Damn... idk if you're gonna make it in time for fallout either dont get fallout or let mgsv sit on the shelf for a few days/weeks/months

[@madness1931]

Calumn Scholtz May put it on the shelf if I cant make it. To tell the truth, I'm slogging through it, I think it's one of the worst game in the series. I know it's not a popular opinion, but I'd trade the entire Phantom Pain game for another Grazni Grad, or Shadow Moses.

[@ShadowsLight33FF]

Who's waiting for the 750k special? :)

[@fletcherbair165]

Ive played 2k games since i was little and i never use the canera you two use. I prefer old 2k camera i believe its 2k or baseline, turnovers and possesion changes in general will flip the camera but i think it makes the actual gameplay easier
