Re: NBA 2K13 Screenshot - Derrick Rose Rated 92, His Signature Skills Revealed

Yea and i think melo fits that category. Plus Ronnie said these signatures are to separate players ,therefore, melo and Kd cant have all the same signature skills, and that offensive rebound(hustle) one might just be the stat to seperate them. Even tho melo fits into all of the signatures that KD has.

I would be very surprised to see Melo with any signature skill that has "Hustle" in the title. I could see him with the "Clear Shot" one and the "Microwave" and maybe the "Finisher", but it seems that the "Hustle Points" is probably reserved for people like KLove, who will quickly lay it back up, or Griffin, who will do a put back dunk, or a number of guys who are adept at tipping balls in. I would think most of Melo's will have to do with shooting.

my players have been getting uncapped, hacked height glitches, and you wonder why they limit the amount of signature skills one person should have per player????

Get this man in a shower and some new clothes because clearly he's been living under a rock during the past 3 years!!!

I can see your vision now.. Your dude is gonna have all 30 signature skills unlocked, you're gonna have pink shoes on, you'll be 7'5, you're gonna pro hop then pump fake your way to the Allstar game then once you've had your fil offline, you're bring that monkey sized primate online to show us how skilled you are....

I'll pass!!!

Replace 7'5 with 8 ft

I'm sure that signature skills are use the differentiate players who would have similar ratings in the past. Lets take dunk rating for example. Two players can have a 99 dunk rating, but that does not mean that they would dunk in the same situation, or even do a certain type of dunk. Lets look at two of the premier dunking bigs in the league:

Blake Griffin:
- 90+ dunk rating
- 90+ dunk tendency
- Signature skills related to dunking are: highlight reel, posterizer

Dwight Howard
- 90+ dunk rating
- 90+ dunk tendency
- (Likely) Signature skills related to dunking are: posterizer

So both of them are good at catching alleys and posterizing defenders. But Blake is more likely to do flashy dunk (windmill, 360, etc) on a open break situation that Dwight. I know we have dunk packages, but we could never choose what dunks they want to do in certain situations.

Thats why I was mentioning new tendencies and ratings, it makes more sense. There may be a Contact dunk rating or flashy dunk tendency. Like I mentioned about the Dead-eye skill maybe alluding to the shots in traffic maybe making a comeback and KD may just have a high shots in traffic rating giving him the Dead eye Skill.

Its like this, I'm thinking there is a new flashy dunk tendency that Blake is rated high in giving him the highlight reel skill in which dwight is rated lower in not giving this skill to him, but by boosting his flashy dunk tendency or rating it would highlight this skill for him but not by simply choosing it just b/c he has a 90+ DUNK rating. Dwight doesnt do flashy dunks like blake does so if a new comer to the game doesnt know this then just by looking at the skills now they know and they could have adjusted it to where if you do anything out of these players character then you wont be successful to much.

Isn't that more or less what "Abilities" were for? I don't see why Chasedown couldn't be broken down into "Poor, Average, Good, Great."

Agree with you completely. All these skills could be ratings or abilities. The whole signature skills things seems kind of gimmicky to be honest.

Re: Derrick Rose Signature Skills

Nah, I didn't make a thread, I just posted in this one. Doesn't matter anyway, it's not a big deal.

Well, that may be where the confusion came from.

I copied from a thread, not your post.

[Grown@ssMan85]

LOL @ people saying Blake can only dunk

Get a clue. You don't average 22+ PPG by only dunking.

YES ITS POSSIBLE SHAQ DID IT FOR YEARS

Low post moves don't count as simply dunking the ball.

Re: NBA 2K13 Signature Skills Revealed For Derrick Rose, Blake Griffin and Michael Jo

i think Michael Jordan must have more than 5 signature skills
Blake Griffin will be Highlight machine in 2k13

been an interesting discussion around why these sig skills couldn't be some kind of slider. I have nothing to interject just wanted to say that, and, I agree Sa1nts....

They did pick the 5 i would've picked had i only 5 to pick out of the batch of skills we know about. Microwave sure would've fit.

And although mike couldn't really be considered a floor general like magic, he made everyone he played with better. Its a shame they don't have something for that too

he didn't have a low post game until like i think 95 thats when he developed a jump hook but his first few years shaq didn't have a low post game

Please have a closer look at Shaq's first 2 seasons. The game is there.

I suppose his 23.4 ppg, 29.3ppg and 29.3 ppg (ref: wikipedia) in his first 3 seasons were all freethrows? Jumpshots?
If backing down your man and creating a 4-6 foot shot is NOT low post skill/moves, then yeah...Shaq had no low post game
