NBA 2K10 Interview (Game Informer)

Re: NBA 2K10 Interview (Game Informer)

I love this Interview, very direct questions and very candid answers. Now we full understand Mike Wang's status when he was with 2K and it's funny how the competition's fans proclaim that they will be better than 2K automatically because of the personnel switch, but in reality Mike was just part of the team which has 80 members, and just one of the guys when he was with 2K.

what else would you expect them to say. Do you think ea only has 3 members on their team. c'mon.

Well the way that they answered the question made it feel that with or without Mike Wang, 2K10 will be a great game and although they lost a member of their 2K team, it was not such a big deal as it was made out to be by us (gamers).

Re: NBA 2K10 Interview (Game Informer)

I didn't necessarily know who Mike Wang was but I did know that several years ago 2k said they brought in several of the minds from Inside Drive which I was very excited about. Imo, Inside Drive 2004 was the best basketball game that had been released to that point and had a ton of innovative features that really added to realism. Too bad it never really got much of a footing.

Very sad. EA got rid of a very good NFL game when they bought the license and 2K did the same when they bought the baseball license.

Now 2k needs to buy the NBA license, then we won't have a problem . Actually, it would be the biggest mistake for us gamers as it sets the bar for improvement and competition for NBA gamers.

Yeah I tried the Live demo a few days ago. It's actually not all that bad this year. Still love the way they run plays in that game way more than 2k.

This is considered a HUGE compliment for Live - "Not all that bad". EA has done it!!!

"Believe it or not, I’m not done yet. The next one is my favorite one. It’s an extension of our 2K Share feature, which we had in the game last year. This is the ability to create and import draft classes into your franchise mode. We actually have a feature outside of the mode where you can create them. This is just simply the ability to go in there and edit the 75 rookies that we generate to your liking. Legally I’m not supposed to tell you what you can and can’t do with this feature for legal issues of importing characters that we don’t have rights to, but if you let your imagination run wild I think some of our fans are going to create some really cool draft classes. It’s all done through 2K Share and before a season a little dialog box will pop up that asks you if you want to load one or just auto generate a random class. For our fans, this is a great way to keep franchise mode fresh.

The last thing I added that I think is pretty cool is a page on NBA.com called NBA History, which archives the league history and builds it up as you go forward. You can just jump into this menu and see who led the league in rebounds in 1974 or who one the title in 1996. Moving forward this history builds with your franchise so you can look back and see how your franchise has changed the course of the NBA. It sounds like a bit feature, but for people who really take their mode seriously it’s a really cool thing to have."

I'm an Association player and this is what I love to hear. 2K is going to give us a great experience this year.

Re: NBA 2K10 Interview (Game Informer)

Hopefully one of the 2k developers can answer this but is there a restriction on the crews. I mean will you be able to have guys being able to create teams that have 5 superstars or did you guys do something to prevent that.

Having a team consisting of my player players against the NBA elites doesn't seem fair.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Re: NBA 2K10 Interview (Game Informer)

I love what I'm hearing in the interview, but I'd like some clarification on how potential works this year. What's the point in having a potential rating if their progression is based on their performance and their playing time?

Re: NBA 2K10 Interview (Game Informer)

I'm saying will they have sort of like a restriction with the 5 players that can be used for the NBA player. Like 1 player 90+ or 2 players 85+. If not every crew will have Kobe LeBron or Wade Kobe as there wing men. Yao or Dwight at center.

same here.

I am going with the game that gives me the deepest franchise mode.

I do not need to see gameplay footage, it was fine for me last year.

I was waiting on both games to announce franchise features.

This seals it for me basically, tho i will give Live demo a shot on psn soon.

As I understood, there are two separate modes of crews:
One with "My Player" players only (were progression will occur, so you will be able to see your overall stats grow and eventually surpass the stats of the real NBA stars) and another with current NBA players only (were it wont) ... not a mix of both ...

... But I am confuse about the restriction with "My player" players crews mode, as it talks about when your player is good enough ...
