    Been waiting for this for a minute now.

    I also noticed they still haven't done anything about dribble handoff and the passer setting a screen right after. It's such a HUGE part of the NBA. I'm surprised they couldn't fit it in.

    And if anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about. I'm talking about throw and go. I'd like to say every team does this kind of action. Even the freaking ISO Rocket throw the ball to a big man and cut off him.

      Any way to remove the tutorial box in the specific skill practices? I'd love to actually try working the left side of the court in those

        I wish I recorded it, but I had a really nice manual handoff that I parlayed seemlessly into a manual PnR with Siakam. It felt so much easier and more responsive than ever

        Edit, never mind. The hand off was from one guard to another, then into the Siakam pick. My bad

            How the hell is me asking a question that I don't know about trolling?

            I said "weird" because most games that release on PC and console have demos not because I thought they release one every year.

              Can't screen after handoff. Czar addressed this already. I was talking to him about this since last year.... Can't get the screen off fast enough but what's there is still pretty good.

                Yeah I think someone mentioned that Da_czar said they hadn't been able to implement screens of DHOs yet.

                  I think OG spoke on this, can't remember what he said exactly but they weren't able to get hand off screens in. It's something they're working on though.

                  I agree that would help with teams that have big men that can't shoot.

                      the story is unique or does it have different paths depending on how you play or what you choose?

                          Well I can't face scan because it launches my front facing camera in such a way that my face is abmormal sized... I'm on a Google Pixel 3a. This is like the 4th year that I have had to restart the app several times in order to get the camera to launch properly. Crazy that they can't get their app right

                            Music to my ears. Without improved help D, it would be a matter of days before on ball D would be patched to be a sticky brick wall again to compensate. Love to hear this!

                            Just a few quick thoughts off a small sample size with the demo. Things that immediately stuck out to me or I wanted to test...

                            - Finally the DHO’s by a user are smooth and feel great!!! It’s a huge part of today’s game and has needed some love.

                            - The start and stop hesitation game is awesome! Once you get the feel of it it feels great. It really opens up some drives and speaking of drives so glad the blow by’s are back as it opens up the drive and kick game. It feels so good lulling defender to sleep then exploding! At least it does when using Kyle Lowry. The great part though is the help defense is nice and tough defenders like Draymond and Klay are not as easy to go by as it is versus Steph. On the flip side as a user the defense feels good with having to play angles and it seems that length, athleticism, and the good defenders stand out when playing with them as they should in those areas.

                            - I think the post game feels the best it’s been in a few years off of small sample but love the hooks and up and unders which I have not liked in years.

                            - Love the feel of the floaters and they look great! Realistic with good arc...

                            - I still hate the jab steps

                            - The pick and roll game feels good and the crab dribble feels 1000x better to me. Have split the pnr a few times now too.

                            - Piggy backing on that the reaction of user dribble input is nice! I’m also liking the separation in stepbacks more so than in the past.

                            - Don’t like I can’t dabble in plays with demo though.

                            - I really like the foot planting and player movement. The finished and gathers are nice too.

                            All in all I’m impressed! I hated 2k19 and shelved it after 2 days last year, but I can just feel and tell that 2k20 is by far the best on the court it’s ever been. It just feels polished and most all my pet peaves above are well done and we are just talking about a demo and the cpu on rookie...

                            From watching the videos I wasn’t that excited but after hands on it’s something you just need to feel. Hard to describe. It just feels good and night and day feel wise from 19 imo...
                            Vann great analysis you got me hyped to leave work early and get into this demo. Love hearing about DHO, PnR creativity, the existence of a drive and kick game, an improved deep post game, and floaters that function as what they are intended to do, skirt above the shot blocker. All things that are important to me as gameplay improvements.

                            Like 23 and everyone else said I know Czar said they couldnt get the screen in, I also brought up to Czar the idea of having the option for the receiver of the handoff to cut backdoor and be able to receive a bounce pass from the big if you read that the D is overplaying.

                            Great analysis all of you guys. I havent checked twitter yet but seems like everyone is loving the gameplay and the main complaint is a lack of depth to testing out your myplayer.

                              I know I read somewhere you can manually switch pnr’s. Anyone know what button to press to do that on the fly?

                              And as far as pitch and go goes as a workaround I just do it manually by passing to gasol and DHO with a player. They might not set the pick after, but because the DHO is smooth you can attack off it now with an advantage like a pnr as long as you don’t stop before doing the DHO (otherwise Player doesn’t continue after the DHO). D stands for dribble lol

                                Gotta say, I am sorely disappointed with the demo.

                                To be able to make a guy, and then test him at only a single overall for a single game, and then not even be able to LOOK at his stats after that... its brutal. I really expected better.
