NBA 2K12 Video Interview - Dynamic Intros, Huge Presentation Upgrades, Expectations

Re: NBA 2K12 Video Interview - Dynamic Intros, Huge Presentation Upgrades, Expectatio

Man, Im still hooked on 2K11, this 2K12 news is already getting me pump. Im praying as far as presentation that in the halftime show, the game will show dynamic highlights from other games going on around the league or highlights from the games that took place the night before. Im glad to hear that the presentation is being pushed even further. Now if they announce that 2K12 will have a new roster update system other than the 2K Insider, I will really be a happy camper.

If not at half time then some point during the season.... like when they say Kobe Bryant and the Lakers visit LeBron James and the Heats they could show some highlights there....either way or anywhere they would add more highlights would be fine with me, where ever they put it (if they) in.
As for the whole free throw change....I'm pretty sure they will still have the "old" way of doing it in but as an option, but as a second option and use the "new" way to kind of try and make us like it then for 2k13 get rid of the old way all together, similar to how they did they did away with the older free throw mechanic they use to have.

I just hope they fix when a player in nba 2k11 subs off the graphics go down drastically for the people subbing off....its like the people subbing off are in nba 2k5...that should be fixed...im sure u guys know what im talking about...and also for the ps3 version idk if its also the 360 version... straight lines are all rigid on the court....its makes the game look horrible with all those rigid lines...if these are ixed for 2k12 im set...

Looking at the e3 video...and i know this may be too early too tell...but looking at the e3 video...it looks like the crowd is the exact same as before... standing up and down and going crazy for no reason.... the crowd graphics still looks the same...the start menu looks the same..the graphics look the same...the movement look the same..and thats about it....


for now...

Moe I believe that is a trick used to keep the in game resolution and graphical quality as high as can be by lowering the resolution/quality of the players not actually involved in the game.

Well they better improve the trick...at least make it more believable to the eyes, like a good magician

Because if you don't evolve, you die.

Their competition is gone but not out. You better believe that EA WILL come with a great game in 2012 using a lot of what has gotten 2k to the top, innovation and presentation. 2k understands this and they HAVE to continue to evolve or else the become stale and when that nice, shiny, new, NBA Live returns they will be eaten for lunch if they do not. So I'm all for them trying out new things in aspects of the game that have been there for a while.

Plus, I don't think you understand how much pressure must be on them after producing a game that was widely considered the best SPORTS GAME (not basketball game) of All-Time. Now they have to produce a game in a year with no immediate competition for motivation AND the world's largest video game publisher returns in 2012 after having essentially 3 years to work on a game uninterrupted ( I don't even count the NBA Elite release).

Its lonely at the top, huh 2k?

2K11 is the best sports game of all time. Hence it will give me enjoyment for many more years.

So glad they knocked it out of the park.

See you guys when 2K14 comes out. That is probably when I will get curious again. That is how good 2K11 is.

You have a good, insightful point.

I'm sure it is, what would be your argument...I mean, how could you count out a basketball game that has been under development for 3 yrs by EA Sports (who once upon a time, put out some pretty decent basketball games). I never said that NBA Elite would come back next year and crush NBA 2k13, I'm just not a fanboy who can't see what EA Sports could do with 3 yrs of non stop development. All I'm saying is that EA Sports could start actually competing with 2K Sports in the basketball department again (like the good ol' days)...period

Stop it moe I'm just a legend in my own mind LOL. If I'm right its not so much a fix but a limitation of resources. Sort of robbing peter to pay paul if you will. I guess they can try to do that on some other area of the game that might be less noticeable. But their engineers are some smart dudes so I'm sure they thought of that already. I've been wrong before though.
