Is the problem that the Restore Ortho setting has been set to "No"?
The this Autodesk Screencast - At first, I have the restore Ortho set to "no", Then I re-set it to yes to get the "out of the box" default: |

Upload a copy of the drawing to this website or make it available through Dropbox. Someone will take a look at it and suggest a solution to your problem.

You might want to either buy a book or look in AutoCAD Help.

I'm familiar with new UCS, it doesnt change, i start at Top View, let's say i draw a circle, the radius, is along xy when i change to Front View, and draw a circle, the radius is still drawn along xy, with Dynamic UCS, on or off

You have two options.
1. Change the orientation of your UCS manually. 2. Utilize the Dynamic UCS feature. There is no magic button. |

Hello again khlumps, the method that I gave to you works when you are in a 2D view only.
If you want to work in a 3D view you can draw lines in the 3 directions with your AutoCAD 2015 but it's OK with otho ON.
If you want to change the X , Y plan in wich you work you will have to set a new UCS if your work is not a 3D sketch.
You can set a new UCS with 3 points defining a plan for example ( command UCS , 3 ( points ) ).
Are you OK with all the UCS command options ?

Thanks for answering so quickly.
I think you misunderstand, i'm sorry if i was not clear. 1) I want to work in a 2D plane in 3D (you answered this, thank you :D) 2) I don't want to work in xy only, I want to work in xz, yz. I want the plane where i draw to change depending on my view, at the moment it is stuck on xy, i want to change that. :D
