Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

Anyone think there's a problem with the pick and roll game?

Look at the video below:

Durant fights through the pick before LeBron has even moved, so when LeBron finally decides to go it's like he might as well not have called for a pick in the first place, because he's going one on one with Durant. Shouldn't Bosh be setting the pick when LeBron decides to go?

Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

One big problem I have with this game and that's player movement. Often it's unnatural and clunky. Moving around the court is a hassle even with players with quickness and speed ratings. Your man can be 4 feet away from you and instead of being able to walk over to him you will start sidestepping toward him. Sometimes the ball can be right in front of you yet you will randomly turn around and be facing the opposite direction. When trying to jump for a rebound or jumping to defend an alley oop or something it seems like there is a magnetic force holding you to the ground.

Trying to explain some of the odd ways players move or some of the weird things players do while moving through text is kinda hard, I wish I had a PVR so I could get some video of this stuff.

I know what you are talking about with the movement. Something is just not right with it. There are animations that make your guy move weird. Just plain moving your guy feels unrealistic at certain points. Idk, animations are just making me get really pissed off.

Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

Online Rebounding is TURRRRRIBLE....I've never seen so many Offensive rebounds after a shot...Its like the defending team doesn't want the ball...Its crazy.

Is anyone else seeing this in online H2H play?

Yeah man I'm with you, I've been experiencing it a lot and it isn't fun. I've lurked this forum for awhile and finally decided to join so I know I can't get too flamboyant with my complaints, but this is a really, really, disappointing aspect of the game. This and the full court passing are up there for my biggest disappointments with the game.

I had to finally join this site so I could look for some other sim players for casual matches here and there. Even expecting high paced, out of control, often nonsensical play in online quick matches, I still think I should be able to do some simple things like, intercept a pass from a center to a PF at half court when I'm at half court, or deflect a pass going through a crowd of defenders in the paint, but the ball is morphing through guys, so that capability is nonexistent.

The buttons are SO unresponsive online as well. This type of thing has picked up lately and it's crazy. Everyone is 2 seconds too slow.

Where is Kobe's jersey sucking? I'm watching Lakers Clippers and he is loving the taste of that jersey. Where is it in the game? I demand a patch!

Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

Played some fool yesterday that picked the Heat.

1st quarter to my surprise he decided to go baseline and dunk on me with LeBron every play. He did it until he was up 6-0.

I called a timeout and then he dunks on me again. Now he's up 8-0. I got on the mic and called him a scrub to which he told me to "D up."

Lmao...I went off ball and controlled Chandler, and I cut off LeBron everytime he went baseline.

Carmelo gets hot, I outscore him 18-2 in the 2nd quarter and then he proceeds to quit.

Lmao at these guys man.

Re: Im so ready for a patch!!

Biggest issue I have is the lag of shot contesting.

When you press it, there's a short time delay before your player jumps up which is too late to contest the shot well.

Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

It may have been mentioned (I am NOT reading all 100 pages of this thread), but does anybody else feel the players are too muscular? I turned on a real game and it struck me right away how thin basketball players.

Sure, there's a few exceptions, but for the most part, even Dwight Howard looks thin out there in real life.

(shrug) Not a big deal, but it's noticeable.

Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

Have we ever had evidence of this actually happen in the past? Isn't the content they add and send to microsoft and psn has to be approved by theses before going through?

I've always said that they "hide" mini patches in their "updates" so they DON'T have to pay the fees to Microsoft and Sony. You don't think Sony and MS certify these for free do you?

Re: NBA 2K13 Impressions Thread

I've earned almost 18k VC points...havent really bought anything been saving for My player attributes. Now that I have the roster I want playing MyCareer and trying to upgrade my player and what do you know? transactions not complete, not saved to 2k server...2k having all this crap linked to their servers with the history of their servers being horrible is totally stupid to me. Very frustrating ...as I have said before he game play is top notch..other things are sadly bringing the overall enjoyment down.
