Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

In the market for a good 360 slider set to really try this game out.

Any tips?

I just d/ld the demo for ps3...

This will be the first year since 2002 i have no purchased both NBA games. The game is just stale, and old.

Jonesy...I had the same experience and posted a while back a thread about it.

However, I got some sliders off 2K share that fixed it...D strength is 100 + A few other things I forget.t does fix it now though.

The game plays really nice after sliders IMO...really nice.

I am getting game freezes now though...complete lock ups...so I think I'll wait until they patch it before playing too much.

That's great to hear CV!! Do you remember the name of the sliders you got off 2kshare?

I'm not running pick and rolls everytime down the court but it takes away from the experience when you know that when you need a basket you can just call that play and voila.....2 points.

A lot also depends on what team you are playing...some coach settings have very weak help D. Increase those if you need to tighten the CPU D.

As for me....after getting freezes, I am now getting frame rate issues. Especially in the post, the game slows down often and makes it hard to do anything. Frrezes + slowdowns =

I am putting this thing back in it's box and am going to wait for a patch.

It's good in a way as it means I'll only be playing LIVE 10 for a while and it will give me a chance to really learn the controls in that game. Switching between them has screwed up my defense in both games

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

I noticed significant lag when having the 2k online services up. I have no lag when I don't log into nba today.

I am not liking the quick job shots. Instead of working on the player defensive recovery speed they just increased the shot animation and I am not liking it at all.

I am still having trouble with the controls and taking shots I really want to take. Wrong handed layups, pull up J's instead of runners and all kinds of problem with dribbles being ridden up and down the court.

This game is solid but needs some significant editing before I feel comfortable playing anymore. Hopefully this patch is processed quickly.

I can't help but to nag about this new 2K10 series. I am flat out disappointed with it. The graphics aren't as good as I expected, but more importantly, manueverability of the game is not as sharp as 2K9 IMO. Something isn't right with this new version as I still think 2K9 is much smoother and natural than 2K10.

I really hope that 2K come up with a perfect patch to improve overall game. As a huge fan of 2K NBA series, this one concerns me greatly.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Made the bump up to 12min quarters (from 10 in 2K9) and haven't looked back; love the pacing. May be my imagination but seems like a lot more contact and banging occur with the extended time; cpu seems more willing to work the clock (depends on the team tendency). Also bumped hum/cpu blocks up to 65 and finally seeing some of those cool swats that were talked about pre-release. Have my controller def assist at 10; think that gives a heavier sense of momentum without sacrificing too much control. Only irritations I'm having:

- still trying to get a good human foul set. I generally don't hack or reach often so don't get fouls called as much. But had no issues with fouls in 2K9. Have my commit foul tendency up to 95 and reach/contest shots at 70 but still not seeing consistency w/the fouls as much as I'd like (don't like maxing out sliders). Haven't checked out anything in the slider forum though
- would like to see the cpu drive and also post up a little more. It occurs but would like it to occur a little more (or be able to easily tweak that tendency). I'm amazed at the way
- really miss being able to control the various walk the ball up anims
- cpu gets called for 3secs a little too often
- cpu player that will twitch in the lane when rotating on defense

Outside of the minor irritations, completely loving the game. I kinda missed my drawn out anims of previous 2Ks initially but generally like the system of momentum/control they have (after tweaking - it's overdone at default). The game has so much content it's ridiculous; I still have yet to touch many of the game options like My Player. Presentation is simply best ever in a sports game imo. I love the way the cpu uses it's move sets available; at times it's like playing another human player.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

This game has to be the most frustrating sports game I've played.

I can't even play my Association, won't get past free agency. Games freeze after the second quarter. Framerate juttering.

I can't get past the small bugs if I can't even complete full games anymore. Just too frustrated with this game at the moment.

Where is the freeze happening? Is it happening during the halftime show with the team stats?

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

I swear to God I can't get any team except Utah to run pick and roll with any regularity...

I'm so frustrated right now. It's as if I'm the only one who's having this problem, or I'm the only one who cares.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

I dont know what your talking about. Ive seen multiple teams run the P&R. Ive even seen Cleveland run a two man game with Lebron and Mo.

Well I use Cleveland so that's not an issue...

I think if I saw a Parker/Duncan pick and roll in this game though, I'd pass out from shock

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

The presentation really is the best in sports gaming history. The animations, the crowd, the play by play and all the little things in between really make certain things fun. My Player mode is fun and satisfying, despite the insane percentages and scoring at times.

I'm still glad I didn't pay for this, as I wouldn't classify it as a sim from a gameplay standpoint. I hope some time down the line, 2k goes back to the sim audience, but with their success, I totally understand their decision to cater to the casual fan.

Not having any issues with teams running PnR on this end.

Re: Official NBA 2k10 Impressions Thread

Did I purchase the special "No goddamned pick and rolls" edition of this game or what?
