Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

Re: Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

How about the rim and net physics, could you tell is they have been updated?

This.

And on dunks. Did you find the backboard violently shook when it shouldn't? Were there touch dunks etc. Just interested if there is a general improvement in rim and backboard physics on dunks.

Re: Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

A couple of questions...

1. Did you notice facial expressions and players reacting to contact with grimaced faces (like the living world blog spoke about)
2. Did you see any new animations (any of the new 4 size up moves, new finishing through contact animations from LeBron possibly, any of the situational/contextual shooting animations holding the follow through on perfect release or running up court after release or willing the ball in.
3. Did the players have a sense of weight? Could you feel the new footplanting?
4. Did you notice any walk up dribble animations that were signature and natural and did you see mouthpieces visually animated during game play?
5. Are you excited to play with the 15 strong 2006 Heat and the 2013 back to back champion Heat?

Thank you in advance for answering.

I tried to go left, right, left with Curry twice. First time Irving was able to keep bump me out of balance and get a loose ball. Second try I was able to pull up for a 3 and missed badly.I spoke to one of the guys who told me he tried to zig zag with Kyrie and he lost the ball.

All I needed to hear, thank you.

Re: Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

Was the shot meter still there ?

How did the paint defense feel, could you just score in the paint at will ?

Was the jump shooting toned down ? You know after patch 4 3's and the mid were way too easy to make

Shooting has been toned down! after patch 4 basically every open shot went in but I missed shots with Curry and an open shot with Klay.

Cleveland doesn't have a great rim protector but Tristan was able to jump straight up and contest a baseline drive I had with Barnes. I tried a drive down the middle with Klay and it got contested. I was trying to trigger that annoying dunk animation where they just throw the ball away but I didn't see it.

Did you notice the CPU changing the way they played defense against you?

Re: Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

How would you rate your experience gameplay wise with the game compared to NBA2k15, is it a huge leap?

Re: Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

Yes we played broadcast. I was hoping for sound to see if there rim still sounds the same but no chance on that. I'm sorry but i really didn't pay attention to the net. Completely forgot and I know this was mentioned around here a lot. LeBron had a break away dunk after a steal and he did leave the basket rocking. It looked really cool!

Curry and LeBron did bring the ball down the court like they use to. Didn't see any other player hopefully it's not just a few select ones.

There are a lot of new animations but the only time I felt powerless in them was when I got my ball knocked off doing the zig zag which I believe is a good thing. Did not see the animation that the player loses the ball out of bounds after a long pass so I'm hoping it's watered down.

Signature size ups are really present and I was able to pull them off with Curry and the CPU also did it to me with Kyrie.

Do the game still have easy buckets after buckets..otherwise a scoring fest

Do your AI teammates play good defense.

How are shot contest feedback..do shots still falls.

I couldn't be able to tell how they adjust in game since it was 1 minute quarters but the CPU does send help defense in those miss matches and will force you to take bad shots. I'm feeling defense will be huge this year!

Re: Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

Do you still get stuck in those celebrations after scoring like in 15 ? I hated that you had to watch them celebrate instead of getting back on Defense

Re: Game Stop Expo Hands-on. Ask me questions!

Did they change kyrie release or is it still the same ?

Thanks for answering these questions, I gotta ask them before you really get flooded later on lol

To be honest, since it's a short game I couldn't grab that feeling of a complete game but it does feel different. I never play broadcast so getting used to that camera surely played a role into that different feeling but in my honest opinion it does not feel like 2k15.5.

They really did a good job trying to replicate the players and the body scannings surely play a big part on it. Like I mentioned all the physics and foot planting is something you have to play to understand but it adds a different feel to the game and a sense of reality.
