Wow! This is what I wanted from Next-Gen! We’ll have to wait and see how well it’s implemented in 5v5 gameplay, but I love their focus!! -

Sounds like a lot of what people have been asking for.
Have to get hands on to really feel the difference but definitely looking promising.Comment

"charges and blocks" finger crosses that they can last past the first next gen title update.
Everything in NBA 2K blogs always sounds great, and I give each new game the benefit of the doubt, but the last few years many aspects of the game haven't lived up to the excitement created by the blogs.
So I'm optimistic as always, because of course it all sounds phenomenal beyond belief, but a fair amount of skepticism is warranted. I held off on buying the current gen for the first time ever, this will an day one purchase of course despite any misgivings.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.Comment

I really hope charges and blocking fouls are a thing again. I like what I'm hearing so far.Comment

it scares me hearing them overusing the term " from the ground up"...or "completely rebuild" just sound like PR marketing talk and over the past iterations hearing the overpromising and under delivering has really taking its told to be cautious.
what really stood out hearing was the Blocking/charging improvements from the collision engine and ability to not feel stuck in any collision animations from both offense and defence aspects of 1 on 1 animations...
hopefully the PNR collisions are as advertised and all that suction towards the screener is removed
and finally am looking forward in experiencing just how fluid movements are in regards to subtle angles and directions a user can change (baring using sprint or not)
....as before the wide angles or paths one would have to take after getting pass a defender to get to the rim due to lack of subtle dribbling movement directional changes was lackingHumans fear what they dont understand, hate what they cant concur i guess its just the theory of manComment

Dribbler built from scratch yet in the first trailer, Tim Hardaway is still skipping frames and warping between positions before his drive and dunk.
Other than that, the animations look great in super slow-mo. We'll see if they look as good during proper gameplay.
But it's the same marketing buzzwords every few years.
This is what they said for 2K14...
"Mike talking about emphasis on foot planting in next gen and how next gen helps us improve it beyond any sports game experience in history"
And going back to 2K15 (before the visual downgrades), the animations looked just as smooth too:

Don’t understand why they showed that dlo footage but okay. Foot planting looks good, nice contact dunks. Will say I am a bit disappointed that a lot of hairstyles are still the same. Was hoping they would update next genHeyComment
