[Bobhead]

I loved reading this. I especially lol'd at "Practice?!" Genius piece of writing here my friend.

Okay, not sure where else I could of said this regarding NBA 2k13, but they need to change the AI defence, i'm tired of playing online games, where people just focus on offence, and move only 1 guy on defence and let's the AI control the rest, it's almost impossible to score at that point, if they fix that, then i'm fine with the game, because people abuse that way too much

The advent of Signature Skills in NBA 2K13 heralds a shift in approach for the NBA 2K series that could have a profound effect on the way people play the game. The system promises to make players whose games are more unorthodox stand out, from the sweet-shooting, terror-on-the-glass approach of Kevin Love to the all-grit, all-grind defense of Tony Allen to the corner-3-carpet-bombing of Ray Allen and Jason Terry. But are we just going to pretend players only have positive traits?

After all, if what 2K Sports is after is a more realistic, nuanced simulation of players’ quirks and individual games, surely they need to look at including a counterweight to players’ good tendencies with something like Signature Flaws.

Here’s a look at a couple of tongue-in-cheek ideas for such a system.

Makes sense. Sig skill = Sig flaws. Lol. I'd add:

Mozgov'd
Some players just seem to always find their way on the wrong end of posterizing slams.
Example players: Mozgov, Turiaf

Re: Signature Flaws for NBA 2K13

I know your article is comical, but I think signature flaws need to be added. Not to the extent as sig skills, but still something to make the player more like real life. (For example Javales 3-4 turnovers in 1 minute last week, nothing in the game currently accounts for inconsistencies like this for certain players)

Re: Signature Flaws for NBA 2K13

I doubt signature flaws would ever get in 2k, but they would be funny, and in many cases more realistic. Here are some ideas:

Hack Artist: Guys who have a higher rate of fouls called on them during contact. Ex. Shawn Kemp

No Shame: Guys who won't challenge a dunk for fear of being embarrassed.

Crybaby: guys who are slow to get back on D because they are busy complaining to the refs.

Whats a Box Out?: Guys who don't box out there man nearly enough. Ex. Everyone in 2k13.

Airball Free Throw: Self explanatory. Occasionally misses everything. Doesn't really affect the gameplay but it would give Harlan and Co. something to laugh about. Ex. DeAndre Jordan

Too Short: Guys under six feet who very occasionally, if they are in front of a 95+ dunker and they don't jump, could get jumped over. It would be extremely rare but would definitely be a replay keeper. Ex. John Lucas III

This is such an interesting idea...if 2k ever implemented this into a future game the world would be a better place lol
