Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Thriller92 have you tried to play against Tony Parker and Rondo???

Rondo yeah. I played Cavs vs Celts and after the 1st qtr my screen went blank and I had to restart the game. He had 2 pts and 4 assists, 1/3 from the field. Most of their offence ran through Pierce and KG to start, and Rondo had about 3 pick and roll plays, and 2 of his assists came on the fast break.

If your PG hits the pick and Rondo gets a little room he operates, but its not like real life where he roams like Nash does with his dribble in and out of the paint. I can understand that thats extremely tough to replicate. But like I said, he did have a couple nice drive and dishes. And he took the open shots which he missed from midrange of of Allen penetration.

Havent had a chance to play vs TP. Watching the Raps preseaosn game

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

anyone know how to get your cpu defense to act like they are alive when the cpu lead passes into the paint?

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Play off the ball when theres cutters and protect the paint.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

I like how terrible passes are picked off and fullcourt passes are tough to complete.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

This game is great. Plays more realistic than last year. I like the aggressive defensive mechanic and the animations are smoother. I just need to learn post moves. Hopefully I can get some practice time in tonight after work.

I haven't experienced any frame rate issues either thank goodness.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

this isnt really about the game but the lock that came with the anniversary edition is pretty crappy. it wont even lock so its pretty much useless.

edit

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Got the game earlier today.

+ Vastly Improved Presentation
+ Commentary
+ More realistic gameplay (more turnovers, better fatigue system)


- Seems rushed (no change in legends, camera angles, or Blacktop mode)
- Too many shots go in on default
- Too many bugs and glitches

Graphics are good, but it doesn't blow me away like everyone said. There aren't even reflections on the court. Some of the court colors are off as well. Court ambience is better, but not as good as NBA Live's. With all that being said, once all the glitches are fixed, this will be the most flawless sports game ever! They are SO close, yet things that are so minor and fixable are holding it back.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

IMO this is the most enjoyable version of NBA 2k yet. I am usually a sliders freak but am actually enjoying the game on default for once! The shooting percentages are too high and the fouls are too low but since I don't play 12 min quarters I can live with the shoot % I just need to tune the fouls to my liking and I think this game may be my favorite one in the series so far.

On the negative, the only thing I have seen so far is the framerate issue, it definently needs to be addressed quickly.

They didn't do justice on Boris Diaw.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Road games are pretty much unplayable with this frame rate issue. I just don't get how a problem like this could get through QC. Unreal

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Playing on Nosebleeds fixes any framerate issues I saw. Did some slider tweaks and got me and the CPU shooting under 50% with alley oop attempts practically gone except when it really should happen. Also I got the CPU to play the mid range game instead of pounding the paint, which actually contributed to high a FG%. Live 10 may have been great out the box, but 2K10 is even better with the proper adjustments.

And Lebron's dunks are all on point. He's a beast.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

To those wondering where all the new alternate jerseys are, there's a small glitch that allows you to see what "hidden" jerseys are in the game (you just can't see the jersey model on the menu or play with it...just the description).

Try selecting an alternate jersey of one team, then switching to another. For half a second while the teams switch, the second team's alternate jersey selection will briefly appear, and sometimes it shows up as something not in the game by default.

For example, I selected "Retro 2" as the Pistons home jersey, switched to the Raptors and found that there's a locked "Hardwood Classics" jersey there. Huskies uniform, maybe?

Also, you can see the names of the locked Latino Night jerseys, Portland's "Rip City" jersey and the St. Patricks' Day uniforms in this fashion. Pretty glaring oversight by 2K in the menu functionality department but it works in our favor.

That's an interesting little tidbit there. Pretty cool to know that some more retros may be released (Raptors' Huskies you suggested) rather than just alternates and themes.
