NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

I'm starting to think we're gonna get white or red headbands with the Cavs navy blue alts again... everyone is avoiding answering about that, and apparently we can't change headband colors.

Anyone wanna resolve this?

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

No, you have one option: Headband Yes or No.



I'm playing lots of quick games. I'll have to come back to this later.



They go up to the table and leave the warm ups on. Once the play is dead, the warm up disappears. You can't see it in the game, as the camera is focused elsewhere. Have to go into replay mode and look for it.



The defense is definitely improved. There is more "meat" to players, as they have weight on them, something that you had an idea of in the Combine.

Out of the box, it has a more realistic feel. I don't feel the need to lower the speed so far, which is a first.



Very nice... the weight to the players lends to this immensely. You can't just go by the defender...



I wouldn't say dramatically. You can still get to the hoop, although it's not like last year where you can just go through people. Plus players are missing more ala 2k8 pre-patch.

I'm glad you said the defense is like NBA 2k8 pre-patch. That is definitely good news.

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

Simple.

How's the arena sounds? Lighting and everything? Can you tell the difference between a regular season game and playoffs as far as the atmosphere? Can you choose atmosphere like in Live?

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

did u see tha ps3 version in action?

No, 360 only.

how is post offense and defense in the game?

The post offense is phenomenal. My gripe with it is, just like last year, you feel like once a shot is up, it's going in. Hard to explain. The system needs a controllable release.

Did Accessory colors change (headbands, armbands...) depending on if a team was playing at Home or Away?

Example: Cleveland wears white headband/accessories at home and red headband/accessories on the road.

Red headbands at home, not sure about away.

How much did the graphics and animations impress you? Did the game feel fresh?

Honestly... the graphics are insane. I'm blown away that they were able to put work into the graphics. Player faces are hit or miss... as in the shots, Melo looks terrible, but the courts are hi resolution once again.

I honestly would say the textures are up there with Live's textures. The game pops more, but not TOO MUCH as I feel it does in Live.

Something to note, the reds all seem to be slight shades off. I know it's not my TV... they just don't have some colors the correct shade to the naked eye, specifically reds.

I did notice some frame-rate stutter here and there. Seems like it is in some arenas once again.

Pared, what did you think of turbo feature?

Sounds are INCREDIBLE. You can close your eyes and it sounds like a real game.

My biggest beef is that damn overhead two handed pass animation. It really throws the look of everything else off. It needs to go!

One awesome thing... if you take a 3 in front of the away teams bench, they will scream at you.

OH! Vince Carter has a new shot too. Very nice and lazy, he doesn't kick that leg up anymore.

Can you post screens of the new Bobcats jerseys?

I'm starting to think we're gonna get white or red headbands with the Cavs navy blue alts again... everyone is avoiding answering about that, and apparently we can't change headband colors.

Anyone wanna resolve this?

can you just post of gifs of your fav players like tmac...lol?

Good suggestion 23, gifs of some shots that impressed you or just players with new shots. Curious to see how Bosh, Carter, Dirk, McGrady and Kevin Martin jumpers look this year.

I'm going to make my own thread for this. I'm trying to keep up with this thread while working on a presentation I have for class tomorrow morning. .gifs are probably out of the question for tonight.

Did you notice the huge gap at the end of the Cavs and Raptors bench like it was depicted in the video Steve_OS made from the beta version of the game?

Still there

Any screenshots of the sixers arena would be greatly appreciated MC. Thank you!!!!

Coming..

Hows the cpu play on levels higher than pro?

Does the CPU cheese like in 2k9(leade passes, alley oops, passing up open jumpers to drive, force there way to the basket)?

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

Thanks Mo. What about other accessories (elbow pads, arm sleeves, etc.)? Can you change the color to navy blue for Cleveland?

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

Pared, what did you think of turbo feature?

I need more time to give an impression for sure. All I know is I saw dudes all over the place tonight with ZERO energy wondering why they weren't able to make shots and why guys were turning the ball over.

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

pared....game sounds awesome. can you explain a little bit about the "new" iso controls. specifically how does it feel, or is the simplicity a welcome change? you mention player weight, does this help the "sliding" feel. thanks man.

That is outstanding.

Re: NBA 2k10 Q&A - Full Game

Another simple question, are jerseys still restricted to home and away? Like you can't wear your alt jersey at home?
