    Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

    It is absolutely unbelievable to me that again PC users are stuck using alternate controls with 2K's half assed support for the 360 controller. Again B is crossover and Y is spin, doing a hopstep is over complicated and there is no pick & roll control. Impressive, 2K. Didn't think you could make it not worth $20 and you found a way.

    I understand not using Games For Windows Live, I understand pushbacks & delays, but butchering control in a game where control wasn't exactly flawless? unh-uh.

      LB on 360, so I'm guessing that means L1 on PS3.

                Just had another bull**** game. I missed 8 layups in the first half with the Celtics. This has been a problem with the 2K series forever. Of course, the cpu hit 5 or 6 3's but I couldn't hit a layup. BTW, I adjusted the sliders before the game. I quit the game at halftime because of that. Great game, but that's inexcusable.

                  Wow this game plays ALOT better on allstar. The upper levels just makes the AI unfair and cheap at times.
                  "I'm so far ahead of my time, I'm bout to start another life
                  Look behind you, I'm bout to pass you twice
                  Back to the future and gotta slow up for the present
                  I'm fast, dudes can't get past my past
                  How they supposed to deal with my perfect present?"

                      An noticing that most who are complaining are those who cant stop the cpu or shut the game down at half time because they cant make a lay up or cant stop the cpu

                      I have neither of those issues so it might be time to lower your skill level or fine tune the sliders

                      sliders work great in this game and not many need tuning

                        Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

                        Played a couple games on PC, out of the box outside of fg% and ridiculously easy oops i felt it plays a pretty good game out of the box. Lost my first game on Superstar, Pistons v. Heat. The commentary really is great in the game but i've been spoiled by the crowd in the competition's offering. The crowd in 2K does have some nice touches re: chants when the away team is taking free throws.

                        I'm happy with the other game on 360 but I wouldn't have buyers remorse either way -- that is on the 360. The PC version still has all the issues that kept me from enjoying it last year, mainly based on flipping the triggers and bumpers and mapping spin & crossover to Y & B. Stuff like Intense D that wants you to hold down a trigger is hard to maintain and dual player control that expects a quick tap doesn't register unless you give the trigger just that. I read comments before about people feeling like they were struggling against control, well try the PC version. The graphics on PC are insane, and the faces (the good ones anyway) are pretty great. Went into freestyle practice with Arenas and in replay mode he was licking his lips, hadn't seen that before, makes me think there could be a great Jordan CAP.

                        Still, the controls is just asinine, and i'm strictly speaking on using the 360 controller with thegame. I know I saw this and mentioned it many times and its a bit of a joke that its the same again this year. The game also fails to show 360 buttons so even something as simple as icon passing can be an exercise in frustration. I saw what some people were talking about in terms of sped up shots, but i don't know why they're complaining when there are still a bunch of shots that require timing (off the top Garnett, Tayshaun Prince).

                        Overall control gamewise was pretty good, didn't find it sluggish as in the demo, and after playing LIVE and reading 2K impressions I had found that I starting believing things that just weren't true. 2K may not be my flavor this year but its still sweet.

                            IMHO (after about 20 games played) is that with bball games 2k is always one step from greatness. This "step" means:

                            - def AI (especially inside the paint)
                            - Framerate
                            - Animation/ Control

                            really :-(, if they're able to improve in those areas, the game would be a classic. Unlucky those aspects seems unchanged from 2k8 especially player control is terrible and the overall experience in not fluid as it should be.
                            Really really intersted to see what will happen next year when Live will be a more "mature" product....

                              To combat excessive points in the paint, I lowered inside shooting to 30, close shot to 40, layups to 45, and I believe I have dunk in traffic at 30 too. My point in the paint numbers are right at the NBA average of like 44 a game. I also have fouls maxed out so that players go to the line more negating their inside the paint field goal attempt.

                                So I finally got to try online play for the first time and I got to say.......IT SUCKS. Now before you sit up here and judge me and say that I suck let me explain that I play with stratagy and skill and spent time in the practice mode to work on my skill.

                                Now starting off it seems like the game devs decided NOT to touch online gaming. They just worked on the offline stuff and the looks and the game mechanics but left the same 2K9 online intact. It still takes forever to get a ranked game and that's annoying. Then when you finally get a game the cheesers are still there perfecting their craft. Even though there is a limit to the turbo they still use it. All they do is run to the sideline and sprint and your defense doesn't even acknowlede them running down court. And when they drain out there's another player on deck who's full. Contesting is still not there. And for the love of me I couldn't even hardly get a single bucket. Open 3's and open layups would not fall but everything for the cheeser fell. Even when I blocked shots they were still going in. I rarely went to the line and was fouled constantly but every single touch sent them to the line. But the damn clutch factor is still there and I'm only able to catch up in the last quarter. I couldn't catch rebounds falling dead in my face and whenever I put my hands up or jump to block a shot the ballhandler is already laying it up before my hands come down. Passes under the basket bounces off their hands like Braylon Edwards during intense plays. AND THEN they decided that you aren't allowed to isomotion YOURSELF. I can't count how many times I would headfake somebody and try to drive around only to have the CPU take over my player, dribble the ball behind his back and drive the totally different direction I was pointing in. Then let's not talk about the drives that get cut off just so that my player can just shoot it up. I had Zydrunas Ilgauskas and Al Hordford and many other C's try to finger-roll it 15 ft from the hoop. They also thought that it's perfectly ok to shoot a jumpshot 2 cm away from the basket. And then when I had the Pistons I gave the ball to Ben Wallace down low and they cleared away from me and I thought that I had a clear lane to the basket. Nope. Ben was stuck with his back to the hoop and I couldn't move him. And here's the killer of all killers lol. There was this play where I was dribbling down court and the guy decides the take a charge center court. I dribble past him and try to switch hands but ended up charging him FROM BEHIND!!! Yes apparently you are allowed to charge somebody in the back online.

                                I finally realized that these ranked games are only geared to people who likes to use exploits to win and regular games are for sim people. So this was 2K's plan? Give all the thrill of winning to the sorry people while the people with skills get just regular play. I mean a mass majority asked for ranked lobbies and they were like "Ehhh, no Peg" (ala The Simpsons) Offline this is the best basketball game ever made. Presentation and everything. I mean at least give us an explaination on why you don't put in lobbies. Why is it that all the cheesers get the benefit of winning. And speaking of which, how is it that I see people with so many games played and I can barely get 5 games in 3 hours? What are they doing? I don't know, I guess I have to stick with the fact that if I win, I just win. No rank, no winning percentage, no bragging rights. I mean I can, but that means I have to cheat in order to get that. 2K didn't drop the ball on Online, they just saw it on the ground and never picked it up.

                                If ya'll wanna play hit me up GT: Laless66007
