Thanks for taking the time to reply, anyhow.

The issue of Stamina indicators in subbing menus is odd and discordant: no indication in the in-game menu, color gradient approximation in timeout menu, and precise number in pause menu.

Unless 2K has some philosophic reason for the variation, it would be best for players for this to be uniform and precise: numeric display of Stamina in all menus.

Also, and I know this is not possible at this point, but for the in-game sub menu, there's a problem that one cannot sub out the Center on the floor for someone else on the floor. Only guys on the bench.

I think it's not possible, without calling timeout, to do something like shift C to PF and vice-versa. Have to stop the game and burn a timeout.

Totally on your side. Give us numbers for the stamina in each menu!


Your last point seems to be possible in 2k18, at least from what I've seen in Da_Czars Blog.


What I honestly don't understand quite yet: Your coach has a specific system proficiency, which controls offensive and defensive behaviour. Some of these systems are the same as freelance offenses (e.g. 7 Seconds or less, Pace and Space, Triangle).
What happens if I for example choose triangle as my "system" and choose swing as my "freelance offense". How does this play out?

Will Flow Tech be enabled for retro teams in future games? Its an amazing feature.

Amaaazing stuff!! Release the game tomorrow please!

Gotta say, I quickly watched the videos first and then read the blog. I saw Giannis in the one vid and saw he still had the malnourished body type. I was about to shed a tear for every Buck fan out there. The I realized it was from 2K17.

If the spot-up shot 3 tendency is high enough the player will not cut. If it is low he will. If it is in the middle he is 50-50

Da Czar aka the originator rockets hate lol. Glad you guys fixed play motion. It was tiring running a play that took 19 seconds to complete leaving me with no room to adjust quickly to defense and readjust

To Czar and producers: Don't give in to Twitter complaints this year for gameplay fixes.

Yes. Flow tech is not something that get's turned off as it were. The classic teams plays dont have it but if you are using current team plays in your My whatever mode it will be on.

As I said some actions have a lot of counters and some have none. It depends on the speed of the other actions. If we can get you open with the default actions were not going to stack a bunch of useless stuff on just so it is there.

The general motion has improved enough that it is not as easy to see everything coming.

Not much else to share in regards to opinions and sentiments. I appreciate what you're attempting to deliver here @Czar especially in regards to motion continuity within the sets.

I don't know if you can pass this on to whoever is the UX designer? Why aren't we able to view the player's stamina in the sub menu? It was in past games and seems like a super easy feature to implement(or put back in because it was taken out for no reason).

Just checking, but that highlights vid at the end, I know it may be implied but was that all AI?

If so.....I am (for the first time ever) both scared and aroused at the same time......

GF: "You ready for some action tonight baby?"

Me: "Yeah but not with you. Czar put enough freelance action in 2K18 to keep me aroused for months. *Pops in 2K18 disc*. I'll call you in a week hun."

.....annnnd you're single lol

Im kidding bro. But this is an entirely different conversation with a wife, trust me.
