I'm not sure but this guy here who's at the event said the badges are mostly the same, so it's a good chance there still in.

Ugh...there better be news about how they REALLY balanced the badges this year. If not then online is going to be a mess again.

Note: Mike Lowe, you could disregard this post because there isn't any new question that I'm asking. Just clarification with another user on my questions posted beforehand.

Enjoy your time at 2k.

I think you're asking way too much. Just keep it short and simple.

May or may not, but I personally don't see how it's too much seeing as the bolded parts are pretty much what I'm interested in. If I had omitted the non-bolded parts including the animated gif, I'd figure it would be too vague. Plus, the reader could have interpreted my definition of the question differently.

I guess could have reworded 2 of the 4 concerns into a question to make it more appropriate and just left it at that without further elaborations, or even shortened the descriptives, but it would still be vague.

Short and simple such as "Is defense improved?" could return with vague responses from the event. One year 2k adverised footplanting to be completely fixed. That didn't turn out to be the case because their definition of what footplanting was completely different than what my interpretation of footplanting. I simply wanted to try to hone in on what exactly I was interested in. Mike Lowe could completely overlook my questions and that would be fine. It just means I'll analyze them first hand when/if I get the game.

Mike, thanks for doing this. Can you possibly clarify what this means:

Direct quote to me from 2K Dev Team: "You're going to have a lot of time on the sticks with the team, so be ready to grind."

From what I interpret, it says you'll get to test the game a lot...are they hinting at something with a grind?

Also, I think this relates to game play, but can you make sure to figure out how timeout menus work in regards to how we do substitutions/strategy? Last year's menu felt was not intuitive to me.

I also guess my next biggest main concern is defense---how do people move around laterally and does it still feel like the offensive player has a significant edge?

Just saying that's a lot to read and might get skipped over.

Any word on dribble drives, CPU defender suction/warping, defensive rotations, plays/freelance developing quicker and running with more flow?
