Re: NBA 2K17 Twitch Stream - Full Game (Ronnie2K vs. LD2K)

In all fairness, we could spend a whole cycle trying to put a wiki-type thread together, and we would still get a lot wrong, never coming close to replicating this. Or this.

I made a few in depth offensive freelance videos last year, and others made many more. Those collectively were viewed by the online competitive community - the larger 2k market - who were learning to play the game. That style of game play looks like it will be even more important for success this year.

We would not have been educated enough to make all those videos in the few short weeks after release without those blogs last year.

So this year, for all those weeks it takes us to try to catch up and figure things out, the depth of the game will remain poorly understood or undiscovered to the customer base.

I agree, but without these blogs, a user collaboration is as good as we can do.

I get it, but I'm not ready to give up hope they can't recover some of this by posting blogs after this Friday.

It would be the right thing to do on many levels, and in 2k's game promotional interests.

Just think what Sam Pham and others could do with that info if they had it this month, right as the game releases, and what that would do for customer education and momentum for adopting 2k's new game play sophistication this year.

Gameplay looks amazing. Animations look smooth and realistic instead of jittery and robotic like previous years. Game speed and player speed also looks much improved.

But some of those body types are AWFUL. Some of these guys look like they're tall middle-schoolers [emoji15]

Funny as hell seeing the cheerleaders throwing those shirts or whatever into a crowd that could not give less of a damn.

Really liked seeing all the fouls being called, hope that translates to playing offline against the CPU without having to crank foul sliders all the way up to see fouls being called close to how it is IRL. Hoping to see looseball and over the back fouls more this year along with charges.

Also like seeing that you can force the ball into the paint, and from playing the prelude it doesnt seem you can force dribble into the paint either. Last yr in 16 it was improved from previous years, and looks like its been improved even more this yr, so good to see.

The game overall just looks improved a quite a bit, and thats impressive with such a short development cycle this time around. Just hope the game isnt full of bugs with such a shot dev cycle, as thats my biggest concerned on buying it day1, but Im putting my faith in the fact that with last yr being so good, and with the quality of the devs that make this game it will be a great game out of the box.

Always love watching Ronnie and Chris play every yr, and Im sure its hard to concentrate on playing while trying to talk. I know when my wife is bugging me when Im playing I usually screw up, so Ill give them a pass on how they played, especially Chris, as I cant imagine he is really that bad if,lol.

Did we get an explanation as to why Staples center still isn't dark?

Here are the on the fly defensive adjustments:

Defensive Settings 2.png

Scott said these take the place of the old POE's and have a much more noticeable effect than they used to. Near the end of the stream he said we not only have these team concepts, but also the same concepts on the individual player level. I'm really interested to see what all defensive settings we have in the menus this year.

He also mentioned that they tried to make everything that ACE was doing under the hood available through menu options so we can build our own defensive strategies.

Hopefully all of this is available in scrimmage mode this year so we can really lab it out.

Edit:

I'm not sure if this has been confirmed or not yet, but we also caught a glimpse of the quick plays being available for all players instead of just being determined by ratings. Bring up the play call menu, select the player you want using the icons, and the first page will be the quick plays.

I went back and grab a lot of Scott's A.I. notes didn't touch the park, pro am or team stuff just ACE notes.

Scott Notes from Stream

1. 19m29s Brand New Switching Animations for you X's & O's heads(switching screens)

2. 20m52s Over 700 off-ball animations

3. 21m40s Transition Off/Def re-written guys getting back in tandem.New concept this year “Back Flow” getting to their assignments on the same side of the floor

4. 23m26s You can control the type of “help D” off of drives/dives

5. 26m40s Consulted with 26 NBA teams in ref. to “ACE”. Adaptive Coaching Engine now has over
6,000 adjustments which will be getting updated throughout the year.

7. 28m43s Extended Pressure option is in the game for end-user

8. 30m9s Scott's Custom Camera(WINNERS WIN) on display, which is a blend of 2Kcam and Broadcast.

9. 43m45s Player Awareness “what he can and can not see”

10. 47m07s Signature “hedges” e.g. Draymond Green and Guard to Guard Switches

11. 48m37s All new changes to PnR Def. all new concepts to if I'm back

12. 51m Help defense sliders are back

13. The Majority of “ACE” options are now available to the End-User to architect your own D

14. 55m37s “Smart Coach” asst. coach has own animations on the bench he's charting the game and will offer advice during time outs based on the flow and situation of the game.

15 56m27 Lou Will drove the Lane, KG had Randall in the corner and he provided Help D bailing on Randall because he can't shoot, Scott states if there was a better shooter KG would have more than likely stayed home.

16. 58m29s 30 total freelance offenses, formation recognition.

17. 59m33s Difficulty Matters you will not get the full experience of the A.I/ACE unless you play on SuperStar and above according to Scott. Why leave out AllStar?

18 1h11m59s Lots of offensive double team logic for spacing

19. 1h18m44s “Mismatches” in the Post, they added over a hundred new walk down animations, different off ball post ups for size mismatch

20. 1h31m4s New on Focus option “Stay Home” which means no help D and “JUNK” shows man then converts to zone


21. 1h49m20s Points of Emphasis are now ACE packages. The ACE packages are more specifically defined, they are now on the “TEAM” and “INDIVIDUAL” level

22. 1h49m45 Players will get a boost based on the coaches Rating based on his strength. So if you come fro D'antoni to Nate Mc you will get a ratings boost.

People can't be serious acting like its the end of the world that a developer blog won't come out before the game drops.

You're buying it anyway and that's not going to stop you.

I'm sure your entire videogame collection is full of purchases that were made without a developer blog. Get serious.

It's a shame what 2K threads have turned into.

Looked like 'Game Style' has been removed. No casual/default/sim.

Yeah, it also looks like there's a Custom difficulty now.

I guess they merged the sliders into the difficulty setting this year?
Hopefully it stays tuned to realistic FG%'s throughout the year.
