Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

Got the game as well last night.

What really bothers me is setting up screens. They are week and not as powerfull as in 2k12.
When you go in practice mode and try to test different plays, mostly 3pt and mid range. In 80% of those plays defender is not caught on screen so you player has tough time to get open.
Van was asking about playbook. It's the same as last year. You assign plays to different players usisng priority list. I have found the same plays but under different names.
But the real issue is setting the screens up. In 2k12 the big guy adjust the screen to caught the defender. Here is like he doesn't care if defender get caught or not. It can be seen during pick and rolls as well as 3pt play coming off the scree.

Also i don't like the amount of contested shots going in.

When you play great defense and the player you defend miss his shot, that from nowhere there is a offensive rebound or putback.

I also noticed some kind of lag or slow motion when you try to shoot when you are wide open. Last year passes were slow, this time, they seem to be ok, but i don't like slow shooting form.
when you check chris smoove video and forward to 2:10 you will see what i'm talking about

pick and roll with wade and bosh. look how wide open is bosh when he receives tha ball. and how long it takes him to release tha ball, so the defender can contest the shot.

SMH @ this game

People I simple don't know what or how to say it but, THIS GAME IS THE PERFECT F'N GAME!!!!!!!!

The Controls:
They did it, I mean from the post game, to the dribble & to the passing game... It all makes so much sence, you know what "made" 2k sports so damn good in the beginning? They always paid close attention to the small details (crowd, mascot, player signature moves & etc...).

Well now they have did the same & have focused a great deal of thought to the controls. Wow! When I am playing this game I feel like the controls are some how mentally connected to my mind, IE. I would move on the court in real life simular to the design of the controls (I hope that made sense).

This was so underated & overlooked in the pass games but now they have NAILED it!

How in the world can they top this next year!??!

Everything else is exactly what you have seen threw promo & youtube vids but however the controls are just something you can't "fully" grasp until you are experiencing it yourself (demo dosn't count).

My only con with this game is JAY-Z! How could they let him go "overboard" with the track selection & menu bling bling (it feels & looks ugly). There is so much Jay-Z that I just had to totaly mute the music audio. This was not a good look & they didn't need him to boost there sales.

My friends... 2k sports are a thing of genius, EA sports knew exactly what they were about to do with the football franchise (IE NBA live). I pray before I die or the world ends that we will have just one more football game from 2k (NFL or generic)!

Brilliant & I salute to the highest degree, my wife will miss me from this point on.... CPU off, XBOX 360 ON!
