Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Alright, here's my ridiculous wishlist suggestion of the year. I think the only way it'd ever warrant being added would be if parts of the art and development team were literally just chilling out looking for something else to do:

- For certain classic players, there should be the ability to shatter a backboard if playing on a classic backboard without the centralized metal support system. In my dream, any game taking place on a classic court from 1993 or earlier would contain that possibility.

Surely, this could never be interpreted as something the game undoubtedly needs. However, like the one-time Michael Jordan "You Ready?" intro in 2K11, I think shattering a backboard with Darryl Dawkins would be one of the coolest experiences in 2K history.

I know they are working balancing offense and defense. The steal animations need to be worked so you don't move way out of play when attempted.

Also to combat drives we should be able to reach for steals after the drive animation has started. Right now once the layup animation starts you can't steal at all. There should always be a chance for the user to decide should we swipe, deflect the ball, foul, block, charge, force contact etc on drives and dunks. It becomes a risk reward type of situation sometimes better to foul or steal than attempt a charge. Look at 2k8 for college you guys had some of this in that game especially the steals.

I agree. They also need to do away with that steal animation that makes the offensive player dive after the ball even though he never gets it. It's really pointless and takes you totally out of the play.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

This would be more of a small addition but....What about adding "Rivals" to My Player/Rookie Create A Legends?

Not like team rivalries, but like a player against a player. Not like the star match ups either, but something more.

Let's say I make a Power Forward My Player in 2k13. Eventually, or maybe at some point early depending on how overalls and draft picks go, a reporter asks a sort of "Who's Better, you or Anthony Davis?". Then maybe they put in a response or multiple responses from Davis based on matchups or workouts in the draft.

Then as you play through your career, In pregame and commentary they compare My Power Forward with Davis and have that rivalry. And you could have different levels like a Bird and Magic rivalry or a nasty rivalry.

They could also put in points in your career later on where maybe a new rookie calls you out.

Just something to consider for the story lovers who play 2k

Even worse is the animation where instead of just swiping at the ball you lunge your whole body at it, get crossed up, and miss.

Of the steal animations that make you shuffle slowly in some direction and flail at something. I guess those are built in punishing animations for the guys that spam steal but c'mon already. There's gotta be a better way. I almost miss when pressing steal makes the guy you're guarding go around you while stuck in the animation.

I hate that animation.

Yes the stealing animations are too exaggerated and long. Really, lots of animations are. I hate having a wide open lane to the basket only to have my player do a super slow walking layup from the free throw line so that the defense can get back in position and make me miss.

HDR lighting like in NCAA Football 12+ correct body models and proportions for players. No more beefed up bodies.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Pullup tendency would be a good add. It would make Westbrook play more like him.
Catch and shoot tendency for guys who usually shoot it after they receive the ball if they have space.
Pump Fake tendency for guys like Wade who likes to pump fake to force contact. Also to prevent EVERY player from pump faking once they get near the rim.
Read and React-type of feature so defenders dont automatically steal passes that they didnt see.

I would like to break out of animations more. I dont mind getting stuck in animations but only if it is appropriate. I really dont like getting stuck in animation where I should get out of. I dont like getting forced into a Boxout and cannot get out of it. I would like strength to be a major part of boxing out.

Gear upgrades (in Game + My player):

-Color Wheel (like in Fight Night Champion) so we can get the perfect colors

-The color wheel shouldn't just apply on just shoes, but on sleeves, bands, socks, etc. (So an new "Home Left Wrist Color 1"-like thing to correspond with "Left Wrist" gear)

-Strips option would be cool instead of a preset sock, like the Larry Bird socks instead of those ugly high socks on him, because not every team before 80s had striped socks.

-If NikeID is still applied, Home and Away versions of shoes of your NikeID.

-Glasses/Masks optional to put on players

-More shoe companies (ex. Spalding, Li-Nings, ANTAs, Under Armor, etc.)

-More retro shoes like Air Pennys, Shaq shoes, etc.

-Different My Player signature shoe designs (like High Tops, to Mids, to Low) when endorsed by different companies from Jordan, Reebok, Nike, Adidas, Converse, etc.

-Making your own logo (like the KD logo, or Kobe logo for example) once your signature shoe wouldn't be bad too (actually be cool, highly doubt that will ever be in a NBA game)

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

ometimes this game just isn't playable being of all the things that are abusable.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Arena specific camera angles. Every arena in the NBA has a different broadcast camera angle and that should be their preset on the "broadcast camera" angle. It would also be good if these camera angles could be editable and saved to their corresponding arenas. This would include classic arenas too.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Speed and quickness need to play a role. Fast breaks and on cuts to the basket. Why do the defenders always know where I am ateven when they are not facing me? Why implement offensive moves when they dont create space like they ment to do? Whats the purpose of playing defense if all i do is Roll Bounce slide the whole time? Why are the plays sooooo slow, and why in myplayer does the cpu take forever to make a decision? Why dont the players play like their counter parts on my team? Why is 2K13 and we still have the same CAP tattoos from 2K7? If you cant put techs in the game then why have the slamming the ball animation? I know its a game if I want to play real basketball id go hoop, but if its sim then shouldnt it be a close copy?

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Franchise:
As a big fan of the College Hoops series, I had some ideas I would love to see implemented into the 2K franchise mode. I'm not sure if any of this has been suggested before...

Regular Season: Scouting is much the same, with scouts being deployed to scout prospects and general grades being given based on the quality of your scouts and the
number of times you scout a prospect.

Offseason:
1) Draft Combine: At the beginning of the offseason, the draft combine is held. Here, the athletic measurements would be released and predictive grades on the
prospects' athletic attributes. These measurements and tests may or not be reliable. Also, you will be provided with a set of canned responses by the prospect from
interviews that will give you a hint as to the prospect's personality.
2) Each week, every team places prospects in tiers based on their board. This would be what the mock draft would be based on.
3) Similar to the current scout system, you bring in prospects each week. The only addition one option would be to choose to test the measurements of the athletes to compare with the combine numbers. These results would be based on the quality of your scouts. A Potential grade could then be achieved if you have evaluated a prospect enough.
4) You can bring in a prospect as many times as you want, but the prospect has to agree to each visit. Also, each prospect will generally not agree to visit a team
more than once.
5) With regard to foreign players, once you draft them, I thought it would be interesting to be given the option to stash them overseas or buy them out from their club.
6) Summer league. Here you could add a couple of your roster players, including draft picks, and undrafted rookies to your team for development and further scouting purposes.
