Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

I would like to see big men toned down. I think Low Post/Paint scoring is too high. I also think that Athletic/Bigs that can shoot are too powerful. I dont mind the good ones. But, I dont like when guys like Blatche, Brackins guy off. Especially the big guys who drive like crazy

In Association Mode, I would like the ability to offer 10-day contracts (to actual D-League players), as well as incentive-based contracts. I would also like to have a more in-depth halftime report.

In My Player Mode, we need:
1. The ability to sim all games
2. The ability to be drafted anywhere from 1st Overall to undrafted.
3. Fully functional D-League w/ actual players
4. Announcers mention you more through out the game (league leaders ESPECIALLY)
5. More endorsement options

Yeah it's not as bad as 2K11 was but in 2K12 almost any CPU big man on the block is a threat to score. They almost never miss hook shots and those shimmy fadeaways are nigh unguardable. I would like to see them expand more on moves and countermoves. Like if Al Horford is posting me up, I know he's not good with his left so I'll just sit on his right hand and force him to use his left. Strategic things like that.

Would be nice, but hat is a lot of licences for players and teams...

Well, 2K has nothing to lose and have a lot of time on their hands since I think NBA 2K13 is the only release coming this year and possibly only NBA 2K in the future, unless EA doesn't always ask for an one year extension for the NFL license every time during that time they do. I believe that 2K has the ability since one of their games can actually bring in a lot of money. And if that doesn't happen, at least there's the PC version to fall back to cause if Ultimate Base Roster always has an edition for every year, then that will be good enough.

It was worse in 2k11/ But, It is something I would like to see fixed/improved in 2k13. Those low post shots is unstoppable if you dont contest them in the perfect time.

They really need to improve the Low Post Defense rating. It can stop a Post move from time to time, but a Great Post Ability will beat it 7/10 times.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

My wishlist from the My Player thread:

• Instead of press conferences after every game, have interviews only for the player of the game as they walk off the court like in real life. Also interviews in the locker room if you're on the losing team. Save the press conferences for the playoffs or special occasions like getting traded or drafted to a new team.
  
  
• Be able to hire an agent to negotiate contracts or request trades. The better the agent, the more money you can receive, but will also cost a higher percentage of your paycheck. Include contract incentives and milestones. Your agent would also present you with all the offers from different teams if you become a top free agent.
  
  
• Bring back all the pre-draft competition. You should be able to schedule workouts with different teams in order to raise your stock, in addition to being interviewed. If you get injured you may get red flagged. Have minigames for the draft combine. Have the option to skip all the pre-draft stuff, but risk getting picked later. Receive promises from teams that want you so that you have a higher chance of getting drafted where you want to go.
  
  
• Bring back crib mode. The more money you have, the better crib you can afford. Maybe you start out in an apartment, or a teammate's couch. You should only be able to visit the crib during home games. Be able to display all the awards that you have won.
  
  
• Be able to watch something like sports center for the top 10 highlights of the night to see if you make it. There should be an achievement for reaching the top highlight.
  
  
• Have scouting reports that you can read about your next opponent's tendencies so that you can prepare for the matchup.
  
  
• Be able to meet with your coach or owner to talk about your role on the team, ask for more minutes, talk about the direction of the team, etc. You can be defined as the franchise player, part of the core, role player, or 6th man off the bench. If you're not on the same page then you can ask to be traded or ask for the coach to be fired.
  
  
• The media should start rumors about you which affect your perception around the league. You can then address if they are true or false in interviews. This will tie in with the popularity/team chemistry attributes.
  
  
• Be able to see how well your jersey is selling among the top ten in the league. Endorsements and popularity as well as playing in a larger market will help raise your sales.
  
  
• Bring back D-League and Summer League with end of season awards for both.
  
  
• Be able to receive invites from the NBA to participate in All Star festivities like the dunk contest and three point shootout. Receive money bonuses or raise your popularity by performing well.
  
  
• New endorsement idea: Star on the cover of NBA 2K.
  
  
• Other NBA players should be able to send you text messages. For example, congratulating you on a good performance or recruiting you to their teams. Imagine receiving a text from your favorite NBA player!
  
  
• Option to choose from the beginning whether your player will be a lottery pick, mid first-round, late first-rounder, or second-rounder. That will determine your base attributes and type of career you will have. You can then either work your way up or down from there, depending on your performance in the combine and draft workouts.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

This has probably already been posted, but I think these few things will allow NBA 2k13 to be the best sports game of all time, not just basketball. I won't go into detail.

~Overhaul Create A Team, better jerseys, fonts, logos, team name/city name on jerseys.

~Actual Summer League and traning camp in Association mode.

~Trade exceptions, sign & trades, cba overhaul, mle, etc. in Association Mode.

~Team Draft picks up to 2018 for all team in Association mode

~Protected draft picks (lottery or otherwise) in Association mode

~Pool of real life free agent/potentially hired coaches (JVG, PJ, Sloan, even coaches like Kareem, Dr. J, Bill Russell, Michael Jordan, etc.) In Association mode.

~Ability to sign assistants as Head Coaches in Association mode.

~Free Agency overhaul (almost like Madden 12, but prolonged over the period of free agency) in Association Mode.

~I don't know if this is possible, but the player personalities in Association mode need to be more like real life. Sort of like having more personalities to choose from

~Bring the real life combine in. Actual player workouts, tests (vert, 40 speed, strength, etc.), times, etc. In Association mode and My Player mode.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

I would love to see players added to NBA Greatest. I want to play with Charles Barkley and Reggie Miller. Even recent retirees like Yao Ming and Shaq. It be sweet to play with the SuperSonics too!

Yao Ming? NBA Legend? Where they do that at? lol

And you can play as the Sonics. Here's a video:

I really just see it as the disparity between user controlled player and CPU players, ESPECIALLY in MP. Kendrick Perkins plays like an absolute beast, but I have Aldridge posting up a guard on a switch and he misses. I seriously can't take it anymore. As long as we're rewarded for playing bball and using strategy Ill be happy with 2k13.

Well said. 2K has to get better with the translation of difficulty. They don't have to secretly boost CPU players' ratings or lower our teammates' ratings to make it difficult. They should just let the game play out and have the CPU play smarter. Make adjustments, not run the same 5 plays over and over, don't stand in place when a play breaks down and let the shot clock expire, etc.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

I don't want to see anymore of a player who's attempting a dunk, stop in mid-air, and end up attempting a layup, unless it's a foul called.

Yeah, I want it to be more collision/momentum-based affects. I want to see players try to throw it in more when they are contacted to the point when they shouldnt be able make a contact dunk.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Has any ever thought of putting an olympics game mode??? Will they be allowed to put that in the game??

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

The success of post shots needs to be affected by help defenders. It's annoying to have 2 guys contesting the CPU's post fadeaway and guys like Shaun Livingston and Mike Dunleavy are hitting turnaround fadeaways in both my and Tim Duncan's face. Every CPU player that posts up is effective too. They will almost always score especially if the shot clock is winding down.
