Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

my big one is facial hair/ hairstyles. for example, if LeBron gets his long beard, make an update with it. if J.R. Smith gets a different hair style put it in the game.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

I'm 100% sure this has been posted but I'm posting it again -- The commish needs to have the ability to advance their online association. That kills OA this year.

And lets keep adding videos to this wishlist -- if you need something recorded let me know, I'll try to get it done for you.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

I don't know if anybody remembers the quarter simulation feature in one of the past nba live games dont remember which, but I loved it. Madden & NCAA feature it and I think it would be great to integrate that into this years(prob too late) or next years version. I know it would be ideal for anyone who wants to play 10-12 minute quarters but just doesn't have the time(wife, kids). To have the ability to play the first quarter for example, sim the 2nd, 3rd and play the fourth would be amazing. I could get like 3-4 full games in a relatively short amount of time, with totally realistic stats.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

International players that are stashed overseas for a few years. Every year there are players drafted who dont come to the nba right away but develop overseas for one or 2 years. Sometimes longer. They would have to mange this right with some international players coming straight to the nba but some not like rubio. Also some flat out never come but mostly second rounders, but the occaisoal first rounder that never comes like Fran Vasquez who was drafted #11 in 2005 but still plays overseas.
Also it would be nice for their to be a spot in the menus to keep track of your international players overseas and how they are developing and their interest in coming to the nba. Also have certain teams like the spurs have more likelihood to draft international players.
This feature would add a lot to the draft in association and add some risk reward for drafting a late second roounder overseas aand sometimes he may never come or end up being awful, but once in a while one comes and is a star like ginobili or scola.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

1. If 2k13 wants to be more sim and realistic they need increase the loose ball opportunities. The ball needs to really be "live" bounce off of teammates and hit the ground with CPU and user not knowing where the ball will land, go out of bounds off deflections. The ball needs physics to have a mind of its own. Right now there are scenarios that need deflecting the ball out of bounds. Right now the CPU or one player always knows where the ball is going even when deflected it more than always goes to one person. They can also use this to make it difficult to get a clean pass in the paint.

2. Momentum is needed on the defensive end. I know they are working on contact. If I am running to Chase down a fast break steal from behind I should be able to keep running and attempt the steal not stop and swipe and then be out of the play. It shouldn't be either or if I am sprinting. Think momentum jumpers just translated to the defense. The same thing for attempting a chase down block from a full sprint. It would take the realism up if I could ball fake a defender right out of the play just using their momentum against
them.

3. They added the right stick hands up but we should be able to jump straight up and stay vertical. The refs are less likely to call a foul if you jump straight up in the paint. This could be an advance defense control so right analog and Y to jump straight up hands up.

4. I would like to see the setup block on the good or high iq players. The setup is a team defense thing one player goes for the charge or steal the second player goes for the block. Lookup the chasedown block by Blake Griffin on Utah. The Heat also do it with Battier. The key is the good or great defender doesn't assume the play is over. The thing is it doesn't have to work you can get a charge you can get the blocking called or the play can have contact and the block is made. Fisher did this LeBron and Durant blocked him.

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Create a Team:
1)Uniforms
A. Jerseys
- users can write the name of the team on the jersey rather than just having to put a symbol on it
a) as a side note make it like word art where you can have a variety of word designs on the jersey
- users can also customize the jersey design instead of always having to pick the same 12 different designs or you could add more designs
- users can choose what type of material their jerseys are made of too e.g. ( 09-10 Denver Nuggets Jerseys compared to the 09-10 Boston Celtics Jerseys, or the choice of the new jerseys the teams are wearing now )
- another thing would be to allow the number correspond with the type of word design use, and allow it so that the number color will affect the front of the jersey as well as the back, i was a little upset that that happened in 2k11
B. Warm-ups
- along with the jersey design, users should also be able to design the teams own warm-up attire (they dont have to look the same as the rest of the league)
a) words can be on the warm-up jersey as well and the word art feature can still apply ( There can be different designs for the front and back of the warm-up jersey )
- users can also choose between having their shooting shirts be either Jackets, long-sleeve or short sleeve or all three
- all this stuff should also apply to the warm-up pants as well
C. Practice Jerseys
- I think that it would also be cool if that created team would also have practice jerseys
- Most of the stuff that applies to the regular jerseys can apply to the practice ones
2)Team Courts
A. Flooring
- users can choose the type of flooring for their team ( Magic court design compared to Cavs court design)
- also the ability to choose the tint of that courts' design ( the wizards court is a different tint than the lakers court )
B. Design
- users have the ability to change a courts design so that not all courts look the same
* just as another side note allow it so that you can also name the court
3)Practice gyms
A. This feature can really apply to not just created teams but teams currently in the NBA
B. This feature should also be as creative when it comes to designing it as it was with the actual game courts
C. Oh, and dont stop there, take us even further and have us build weight rooms and locker rooms and give the players actual emotions as if we really were in a NBA practice gym

*One more thing before i stop talking about this, allow it so that there isnt a limit on how many teams you can create please

Here are some ideas for Create a player:

1) Names:
- I know that its probably a real frustrating thing to look up all those thousands of names so im not going to get on your case about it, but it could be expanded a little more
2) The Randomize face option:
- If POSSIBLE, please please please have the computer randomize the face so that the created player actually looks human instead of some non human looking person
- and if you can do this allow it so that the face corresponds with the persons ethnicity, i once randomized a black guys face and he turned out looking asian, please fix it
3) New feature: Jumpshot creator
- not everyone shoots like kobe or lebron or J.J. Redick so this feature would be really tight
- with this feature, users would be able to
* determine how high they want their player to throw the ball when shooting
* how high their player will jump
* they can create their very own Shooting form that is detailed down to how they want their player to look when its getting ready to shoot
- the same should hold for Free throws as well

Pre-game gameplay:
1) Warm-Up shots before a game
- before any game being played, whether its quick game, association, my player etc. While the game is loading you can have your players from both teams take warm-up shots and then when the game is ready, you can choose when you want to play by hitting a specific button
- and during this you can also see the crowd coming in and trying to find a seat to get ready to watch the game
2) Starting line-up announcements
- in the settings option, users can be allowed to choose between having a regular starting lineup introduction like this game has done recently, or they can have the starters have the introduction show that they normally have to make it feel more real

Timeout gameplay:
1) during timeouts when the user is not playing maybe you can add in some minigames, like have some random person shoot half-court shots or something

The little things:
1) allow more than 12 people to play:
- this may seem weird but its better than looking at the bench and seeing that there are 3 empty seats just sitting there
- maybe in the settings you can choose to have as many number of players play on a team from 12-15 players

2) shoes:
- bring back all shoes from previous 3 years
- i like the 09-10 hyperizes and i was sad they werent here in 2k11
3) Blacktop:
- all that i want to talk about here is just have created teams play in the black top games
4) D-Leauge:
- allow the user to have the option to play d-leauge games as well as create d-leauge teams
- those guys are players of the game too and i think it would be nice to add them as an addition to this unique franchise
5) Higlight reels:
- During the association mode it would be phenomenal if you were able to get all the games of the week and place it in a highlight reel like sports center or NBA gametime
- not only for association mode but allow it for any mode and upload and save player highlight reels and share (again this would be insane)
6) Playoff situations:
- Just allow it so that the crowd can wear team colors and this can be changed in the create a team option ( What i mean is if a teams colors are blue, red, white users can choose to have the playoff shirts be either blue, red or white )

LeBron chase down block again the ball is live and going where no one knows

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

It isn't that the ball doesn't move randomly so much as the CPU has an instantaneous reaction time and built in ball awareness that is functional regardless of their proximity to the ball.

It's the reason why:

• Sometimes the CPU will try to block your shot at the rim when they're not even facing you
• Tip passes they are not looking at
• If you are bringing the ball up court and dribble off of your teammate's foot, everyone (even your teammates) will all simultaneously stop and turn around in unison to try and get the loose ball.
• A CPU defender can be jogging back on defense, not even looking behind him, but as soon as you reach a certain spot on the floor he automatically stops whatever he is doing and ( again, instantaneously) sprints toward you to stop you from getting to the hoop.
• Jump at the exact same time you go up for a shot at the rim and jump toward the hand you are shooting from

[stillfeelme]

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Kmiree,

I don't know part of the problem is the CPU reacts too fast and the ball never takes a weird bounce that the CPU doesn't always know. They just know where the ball is going to land because the ball has no random bounce and they have been programmed to be at the spot where the ball is going to come off the rim or if it does get free they do react too fast.

• You ever accidently shoot after a rebound full court shot and the computer knows exactly where the ball is coming off the rim just waiting?

Have you ever deflected a ball and had to actually run the ball down? I know I seen it roll to the back court once and go out of bounds. I am talking examples like this. The ball is hardly ever loose, there are no 50/50 plays or situations where if the ball just bounced a certain way it goes to one team and if it doesn't goes to the other team .



<object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EkYghHgL18I?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EkYghHgL18I?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>


Shoot even situations like this some of the Celtics were going down the court because they thought they had the ball

Re: Official 2k13 Wishlist Thread

Will 2k put out a Free Throw meter like Live used to have? That would help.

Easier dunks and layups like in Live 10. In 2k, its hard to drive to the lane and dunk.

Edit headband colors and shoe color. Thunder wear black socks and shoes on the road, not white.

More throwback uniforms, (80's Green Mavs uniforms, 70' Nets uniforms, late 80's Bucks uniforms, early 90's Knicks uniforms etc.)

The meter is arcadish bruh and shooting using the player's release is easy once you learn it. Once you do you'll be turning the difficulty up in no time. The easy dunks/layups thing -- if you want that experience put the game on casual or play Live 10 -- I would lay a tweet barrage on the 2k devs if they turned 2k into NBA Jam, lol.

Mike Breen and JVG commentating

I want to say Live owns the rights to Breen and JVG since they are both ESPN announcers, something EA has the rights to. And techs won't be in due to the NBA not wanting that behavior to be displayed in a video game -- they already consider it a black eye when it happens in real life.

Get rid of that dribble off your teammates foot animation.
And that shot clock cheese. So unrealistic.
And let us update rosters inside a mode (ex. MyPlayer)
