Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Major peeve of mine that I just remembered (because it happened to me again): I want my steals to stop resetting in My Player; in my rookie season, my career average is listed at 9.1 steals per game, but somehow, my season average is listed at 0.1 steals per game. This has been a problem (that I'm aware of) since 2k10, and this really has to be solved.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Here's my short, but sweet wishlist:

Both online and offline association need a lot of love, so first make everything that's available in 2k12's offline association, available in 2k13 online association.

- For online association give the commish more power. Let him have the opportunity to reset games that are dropped so they can be played again. Either do away with the timer and let the commish advance manually or let the commish have control of setting and or pausing the timer.

- In offline association work on player roles. There's no reason for multiple players on a team with the best record in the league to be upset ten games into a season.

- Also for offline- Give us an authentic up to date draft. For example: New Orleans owns Minnesota's first round pick due to the Chris Paul trade, so the game should replicate that. I realize that causal players probably wouldn't want this, but having it as an option would be (in the words of Da Czar) reaaaal niiiice

- offline again - Give us a manual injury system. This way we can mirror real life or choose to have fantasy injury's or both. See The Show.

- Last, but not least (actually this has been my #1 want for NBA 2K for years): Give us the option to intervene in games. This is one of the things that made the Live series playable. I want to play a full 82 game season, but don't have the time to play one. I would love the chance at at least having a say in close games. A super sim feature would give me that.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

First and foremost, do not let animations control the game. Y'all advertise so many animations, but only a few of the same animations play out over and over again.

Controls

-Go back to the dunk controls from 2K11. Move shot stick at basket for sig dunk, away for reverse or spin(which includes baseline, enough with the pointing the stick towards the baseline), right for hang dunk, left for hop step. It's just easier that way. Same goes for layups obviously.

-Don't have the 'rock the ball' back and forth. That should be used for quick set up dribbles like the in and out, crossover, spin, etc. The way it's set up now, you can't do quick moves like what D. Rose, CP3, or John Wall do.

-Pressing Y or X shouldn't result in a foul EVERY TIME in the post. With that being said, the animations where no one is touched and it's a foul and then when someone is knocked to the ground and it's not, seriously need to be reversed.

-Don't let the ball handler automatically change dribbling hands, that should be controlled. They also shouldn't always throw the ball out ahead of themselves on a fast break, double tap RT should be to throw the ball ahead of yourself.

Defense

-Get rid of the icy feel it has to it. Feels like hockey more than basketball. I think it was 2K9 or 2K10 that had the 9 sections, you could choose which side to play him and how close to the ball handler. THAT was perfect.

-Help defense as it is, is God-awful. My players help out at the most idiotic times. I didn't call for a double-team but my teammates think it would be wise to leave Ray Allen to double up on Jermaine O'Neal. They switch for NO REASON. And why is it that the PG ALWAYS runs to the middle of the lane on fast breaks and from there on for that possession, no one is guarding the right person. I could understand if my SG were guarding their SF and vice versa. But it ends up being my PG on a C, SG on a PF, PF on a PG, SF on a SG, and C on a SF. WHY?!?!?!

Offense
-People have been raving about the play calling and it is pretty good, but my Lord, why are there sooo many plays where you just stand there and dribble at the top of the key forever??? Not every possession goes for 20 seconds of the shot clock.

-A simpler way, instead of when you call a play for someone, having to flip through 4 pages of plays (because let's face it, you have 24 SECONDS), press LB to have the players button come up, and then choose from whatever options he has (3PT, Mid-range, Cutter, etc.) and have it choose a random play for that type of play. Ex. If I choose Kobe the options should come up, Y- Mid range, X post up low, B Iso, and A post up high. Then it would choose a random play from the playbook that matches what I wanted.

-When I call for a pick and roll, the big man should ROLL. 'Nuff said.

-CPU teammates should jump for offensive boards, I find them just standing there most of the time reaching for the ball without jumping. CPU teammates should also box out, which I have yet to see.

-Passing needs a COMPLETE overhaul.

-How about ACTUALLY fixing fast breaks and not just saying you did. I still have teammates running in front of the ball handler and post players sagging out to the 3 point line.

Random

-The game still has instances of quick, spastic type movements.

-The AI still has the force field type feel to it on defense.

-The AI's offense is idiotic. Greg Oden just did an escape dribble jumpshot on me from right inside the three-point line, and obviously missed it. They regularly wait til the shot clock gets down to 1 or 2 seconds to shoot and they are usually horrible quality shots.

-Every player should not have access to every type of shot. Not everyone should be able to do a spin shot, escape dribble shots, etc.

-Have athletic attributes MATTER. D Rose WILL NEVER be caught be Derek Fisher on a fast break. Need a min-speed threshold or something. Vertical AND Dunk rating should factor in what dunk packages are available. If my guy is 6'4," has an 85 dunk and a 70 vertical rating and is assigned LBJ's dunk package, it shouldn't mean his head gets above the rim like LeBron's, he should simply be doing the occasional power tomahawk.

TEAMBUILDER
-This way, we can get all of the legends teams, players, etc that we want!

Cosmetics
- Ability to edit color of headbands instead of them being automatic

--With that being said, I want to see a screen similar to NCAA Football and Madden before games, a long with choosing which jersey your team wears, you should be able to choose headband color, arm accessories color, leg accessories color, sock color, and choose home or away shoes.
That way, we don't have to go in and edit players before EVERY game, and on the edit player screen, you just choose WHAT accessories he can wear and before games you can have whatever color you want. Saves time and we can get more games in that way.

- Ability to edit jersey fit (loose or tight) and short length (60's short shorts, 90's short shorts, baggy)

- In CAP, fix the current list of hairstyles or add more, because they look terrible. How about having it actually LOOK like hair. Make it 3D like EA did with the grass in their football games, it should MOVE. (Not to mention, this was in 2K7)

- Ability to use current players tattoos instead of the ones that are in CAP now, those are truly terrible. I'd rather have the ability to use some of LeBron's tats then the ones on the current CAP list

- Ability to wear socks underneath ankle braces, it was in last year, don't know what's wrong with it this year

- More Reebok and Adidas shoes

Association

-Ability to relocate teams, change colors, mascot, etc.

-Ability to start an expansion team.

-For the first two, you could incorporate an online feature so that you could go in and design a logo, court, arena, arena name, etc.

-Have current draft pick trades in place (for example if Charlotte trades their 2015 pick in real life to Chicago, then in 2015 when the draft comes up in Association, they should have that pick).

9. bring back all online modes from 2k11

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

bring back ACTIVE DEFENSE meaning standing next to a shooter is not a shot contest. Hands up or jumping should be the only things considered as defending a shot. get rid off auto contesting shots also while playing on ball

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

These are all good ideas but now I understand why *2k online is terrible.. I haven't seen least one post talk about online..

For 2k 13 they should prioritize*online everything about online. Gameplay they should take out the animation for spin dunking..

Online *we should have saved playbooks Saved settings.. *Rank Lobbies fo hallofame simulation/Leaderboards for every difficulty..

Show opponent records/their rank/ their dnf/feedback.. Bring Online Leagues back.. Punish cheaters who dropglitch/ disconnect games, lag ft's/ Freeze your shooters..

Spectator Mode For Online..

Enough of these noob friendly gameplay online.. Stop the system where there r always comebacks..

Show Jumpshot feedback Online.. Let it take skills to win games purely skills.

"2k online is horrible" because they make animations that are unstoppable, they have been using a 10 year old code, they dont put much effort into it, not everyone is thinking about 2k13 so give it time

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

1. Good music like in 2k9 & 2k10
2. NBA Blacktop (pickup games, slam dunk contest etc.)
3. Real NBA All-Star Weekend (Skills Challenge, Dunk Contest, 3PT...)
4. Little bit of everything that you already wrote in this thread

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

5. the problem with the pump fake up-and-unders is that defenders can't properly contest them due to the wonky block animations around the hoop....2k didn't give defenders enough ability to "track" the leaning up-and-under shots with their hands...so what happens is that a big man will be standing right next to the player and is in perfect position to block the shot, but the block animation makes him miss the ball even though he should be able to easily block it...2k needs some new contextual block animations specifically for contesting the up-and-unders when a big man defender is standing right there...60-70 percent of those up-and-unders should be blocked, but the block animations aren't adequate enough around the hoop.

guards should also pass the ball back out more often when they get surrounded by defenders in the paint...too many times they will have 3 defenders around them in the paint but will still try to shoot it anyway.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

I don't know if anyone already mentioned this but I feel like the biggest problem with the game is the defense in myplayer... All teams run various defenses and that man to man is so ineffective on there... We should have the ability to change defenses

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

It would be nice if a foul was called when a shooter gets knocked down on a jumpshot sometimes.
