Didn't like the full court pass by Gomes. I still think they should somehow make the CPU less ''cheesy''.

"Didn't like the full court pass by Gomes. I still think they should somehow make the CPU less ''cheesy''."

Compare this video to the way the Clippers play. Clippers push the ball. That long pass was the only time they acted like the Clippers. Even Griffen was mostly jogging down the court.

Yeah well, im quite tired of the CPU always doing this. In 2k11 this would happen with any team, any player.
Hoping its solved though.

:arrow: the sprint is awesome
:arrow: commentary is great (had to wait to playing more games to see how often it recycles)
:arrow: like jon mentioned, the dornas on the side, looks sexy and it doesnt look like a cardboard in my point of view..it's illuminated... (Y)
:arrow: yep saw the backboard on the dunk attempt from griffin, JAM like...
:arrow: noticed rebounding looks good...if there was a rebound magnet like the past versions, i didnt notice it...

The presentation is great, they've blended Kerr in very well and the commentary sounds very organic. I'm sure there will be repetitive moments the more you play the game but that's kind of the way it goes with commentary in sports games. In any case, seems like they've done a fantastic job with it.

There were a couple of animations on passes and the like that looked a bit awkward, but I think they're the kind of things that look better when you're playing than watching someone else. Videos can't give you a proper sense of the feel of the game, so I take that stuff with a grain of salt until I can get some hands-on experience. Physics are looking good.

Looks they did indeed get rid of the psychic steals, too. Excellent. Nice video on the whole, great to have some high quality raw gameplay footage, but I'm eager to try it for myself.

better commentray, awesome presentation, better animations, better graphics, the only problem i see which really isn't a problem is the accessory colors, but thank God for the reditor

"The presentation is great, they've blended Kerr in very well and the commentary sounds very organic."

An announcer calling Rondo "going for his first points of the game" as Ray Allen shoots is not organic.

Repeating that the Celtics "went small this year" 10 years into an association, even if the Celtics have gone big, is not just "a little repetitive".

The commentary is great the first time or two a game is played with a given team. Then it's time to turn down the volume. If they'd stick to talking about what's happening in the game that wouldn't happen. For example, if the commentary said:

"#6 is on fire this game"
Kerr "When a guy is this hot, you have to double team him" or "looks like the coach will let him get his points while trying to shut down his help" or "they've been double teaming. Maybe it's time to try the triple team."

that's superior to telling a personal story for the 100th time, or telling it later in an association when they guy is no longer on the team, or wasn't just traded to the team "this season".

I also loving the starting lineups, though they cut off :cry: I wanna see all 5 players presented like that.

True. It's not perfect and there's room for improvement, but I never said otherwise.

I think they may have got licensing for MSG judging by this line

They should show us a game ,between Miami Heat and other team just to see some of the dunks and alley oops :D

-Walking and dribbling.
-Pierce's jab-stepback.
-B Griff's leaning back before backing down.
-Ray Allen's through-the-legs-and-go.
-The dribbling sprint animation.

All these make a basketball geek like me happy :D

I noticed that someone was wearing a rubber wrist band on top of a sleeve, so that's some improvement in accessories.

We'll see more than 4 dornas at a court...

I don't know if it's just me, since nobody has mentioned it yet, but those faces look like 100% improved. Ray Allen, who has always looked akward, looks so real. Those faces are just awesome.

I also love how Griffin is getting many touches and setting picks all the time, looks very good.

Yeah I have to admit all the reworked headshapes and faces look great. I think this is the 1st 2k to have so many players spot on(DeAndre Jordan looks like himself :crazyeyes: )

Maybe, but 2k had the same problem with TD as they did with MSG in the past.
