NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

I didn't see my question answered, so I'll ask again.

Is player lock still in?

Waiting to order the game, thanks.

It's there but not on the same level as it was last year. Last year you had 3 distances you could lock into from the ball handler. This year, it's just like how well you can the defend the guy on your own and it helps you out a bit.

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

Thank you all for taking the time to do this !

One question, what are the alternate control schemes?

Can you customize the controls?
and can you please check the Alternate A (Isomotion with buttons) and comment how it works.

Thanks again.

There is an A,B, and C control scheme. They just change the turbo, hopstep, and shot sticks up a bit. I'm not sure if you can customize. I looked because I wanted to switch the ISO triggers back to last year and I couldn't figure it out.

I don't know if Pared or MC is, but TD is working on some event coverage and some game play footage that will be going up either tomorrow or Monday.

I was playing with the Celtics a bit we have it on video. I could record some more from my Flip cam aimed at my TV but I don't know how high quality it would be for you all.

I wouldn't mind. I think most people just wanna see the game in action to help tide us over. I'm sure the questions ought to be answered well enough as the last full week before release starts and maybe thats when we'll actually see a commercial or something. But if you didn't mind filming a game I think plenty of people would be very grateful. You're call ultimately of course.

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

Hey just noticed for a couple of gameplay vids i've seen that, the CPU PG does not walk up the court with the ball and direct the offense after a made basket by the user anymore?

Did they eliminate this movement or am I missing something here?

In 2K9 they had it, but so far in the vids i've seen for 2K10, the PG doesn't walk up the court anymore to set up the offense.

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

can people still draw charges when the ball handler is walking? This sucked in 2k9 and caused people to constantly attempt to stand behing guards and draw charges during inbounds

C'mon guys, headbands may not be important to you, but it is for many people. I'm not one of those guys, but I will be pissed if they only had a few kicks. It has nothing to do with gameplay, but accessories are still important to most people.

Thks man! For me, like u say, Calf sleeve is not a problem for me, but i dont trolled this, because is important for some guys....

I dont understand why is so dificult to 2 or 3 guys stop trashing headbands issue!

Pared, Mo....i still waiting for images or info about white HB ok? And of course, thks for your patience with us!

2. Are there more fouls on default settings and more off the ball fouls?

3. can you finally call inbound plays?

4. Do teams run there real life offenses?

5. Do teams like the Celtics and Lakers using there SSZ defense does the AI use zone at all?

These are great questions guys - what is a SSZ defense? I will look into these for you.

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

2. is it true that the prospects can be downloaded?

3. how's the FA pool? I read an insight wherein they will have hundreds of Free Agents in the game.

4. what about the hustle plays? im referring to situations like when there's a loose ball, have you noticed if players are diving for the ball? like the one present in Live 10. Is that present in 2k10 also? if yes, that would be so awesome. otherwise, i still love 2k10. lol

5. give some notable FA's like Rubio, Navarro, unsigned draft picks.

6. speaking of unsigned draft picks, do teams hold draft rights of unsigned draft picks like Llull, Rubio, etc. ?

7. And lastly, if the answer in 5 is YES, can we trade these draft rights?

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

Players dove for loose balls in 2k9 and the videos show that it's still in 2k10.

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

How are the fouls in this game? I must have seen an NBA Live 10 video where someone was called for an offensive foul on an illegal screen. I've never seen that on any NBA video game. Will we see that in NBA 2K10?

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

Please forgive me if some of this questions have been answered (but most likely they havent since I read the whole thread) and/or if they seem to be irrelevant ... ...

- Gameplay or Signature Q´s:

1. As individuals, from what I have read and hear, the players seem to behaive as their real life counterparts (posting when they would likely do, driving to the lane or just staying close to the 3pt line) ...

but as a team (NO & SA & CHA: playing a slow pace game - NY & GS & PHO: playing a fast paced game - CLE & BOS: playing great defense and harrasing their opponents on that side), do they ?

2. Last year if you assigned some plays to the playbook the AI (CPU) would just ignore them and wouldnt playcall them, to some extend all the teams would just call the same plays over and over. Is it different this time around ?

3. Have you tested, after downloading the game to the HD, that the slowdown has gones or is reduced to the point of not being a complain ?

- Association or Season Q´s:

1. Have you simmed a season ?
2. if so, are the simmed stats on par with what you would expect on real life ?
3. Are there still the same problems like last year (huge FG%, few RBS, lots of AST) ?

- Other complementary Q´s:

1. Can you really change the coaches themselves (not the coaching slider or tendencies but the individuals) ?
2. If so, Is there any coaches FA pool (be it with real life unhired coaches and/or created ones) ?
3. Can we edit the created ones ?
4. Can we promote asistant coaches to coaches ?

5. Besides the FA pool, is there any Retirement pool where you can put the players that retire whitin the season, so they wont be consider as FA´s for the next season and we wont have to alter their ratings (this could also be used to place the players that went to Europe with multiyear contracts) ?

Not in this year. I know this for a fact as I asked about it at the launch party. Kicked balls are still there.

Fouls need to be increased from the default for sure. There's seemingly nothing being called out of the box.
