As far as the match goes between me and Drago the biggest issue I had with the match(other than the spamming) was that at the end of every lockup no matter if I repeatedly tapped A or didn't at all, it never gave me the prompt for the reversal. So, since Drago would always win the outcome and the game never prompted me, he was pretty much guaranteed a successful grapple no matter what.
I really hope 2K gets their shit together for 2K15 and delivers a game that isn't broken because I don't like getting my ass kicked because a game doesn't work.
Oh, and him hitting his finisher before I was even up, that was another issue. I didn't say anything during our RIOT match but have commented on it during DMs with him. He told me that he was waiting long enough when I mentioned he should wait a bit longer before he hits his finisher, which obviously he's not.
