look at that.. that's nba 2k9... what the hell happened to the graphics 2k? a game that came out 4 years ago looks just as good as 2k13. that's just unacceptable.

Consoles are 7 years old now. There's not much more they can do at this point.

Now add no hex editing to that list.

Ah man!!.... that's a killer right there.

2k9 was probably the biggest leap and best 2k basketball game I've played in recent years. I'm still holding off getting 2k13. Not sure why. I'm mid thirties and have played every sports game since the beginning of time. No joke. I managed a game store all through highschool and college where we could take out games and sports games were my thing. I'm not as hyped as some. These sports games seem to be all the same every year. 2k basketball is a bit more polished than most but it's still a few gameplay tweaks and a lot of flash. The games are allt he same after a while. I'd like something new. I like the presentation in Madden. I think EA does a really good job with their presentation but their gameplay is lacking. 2k seems to get the gameplay aspect but it's still more of the same. I don't know if anyone else feels the way I do. I'd like something new. I think games like Madden are the same every year. Fun at first but a few flaws here and there and the gameplay falls apart. 2k basketball seems to have a solid base and improves each year but removes things the same way. They are trying all this nickel and diming stuff vs really being innovative.

These games get boring after a while. It's just disapointing to me. Jay Z integration isn't what i was looking for here. They have the sim nation crew over on madden trying to get the gameplay right and it's 2012. It's all well and good and no offense to these people but I think in general people ahve lost touch of what games should be. They are concentrating on the wrong things.

There are so many things that could be done and aren't being done. I fall for it every year. I fell for it with Madden this year. But I'm holding off here.

No auto save is a bit ridiculous. Do something about it 2k!

[Jukeman]

So I'm kind of dumb about autosave. Why is it a bad thing to not be able to turn it off?

Because it saves after every action. If you spent as much time in the menus as much as on the court ganeplay then it can become very annoying.

Just imagine if there was a loading time after every made basket..

I havent played this year's game yet and I havent used the feature since it was broken before and the off button didnt work but back then you couldnt do anything until the save was complete. Hopefully they made it save in the background like Fight Night.

This is sad reading through all of this. I'm so glad I still have 2K12 on my PC. Looks like that will still be getting playing time for Associations and what not because so far it sounds like Association for 2K13 is basically ruined by this stupid auto-save plague. I am realizing the more and more I play this game the more disappointed I am with it. I do like MyTEAM though, so I'll probably keep it just for that.... otherwise it's back to 2K12 until they patch all this garbage.

Why do I get chewed out by everyone when I post something like this, but when someone else does, everyone just joins in the discussion and agrees for the most part?

If this continues on becoming a whine thread where people will complain about anything and everything it's going to be closed.

Keep it on the topic.

Re: 2K taking too much away from the game??

This must be their reasoning behind that.

So no more cheating in Offline Association. Like when you lose, you gotta live up to it. Haha

it's not this. it's more so you can easily have back up files and saves for things like sliders and rosters. it's a lot easier to mess something up and you really have to take time to be careful to know which file you're editing. it's also a pain for slider guys who have to keep a spreadsheet to test and track. much more difficult to go back to a file now if you need it for whatever reason.

What's wrong with a good complaining and whining thread? Why is that forbidden on these forums? We're just evaluating for improvement.

I think he is trying to say that people are on this thread just throwing out complaints and thats it. Having been mainly a lurker of these forums for quite some time I've found that its fine to address issues with suggestions for improvement but not blindly whine.

Re: 2K taking too much away from the game??

Serious question. Do we really have to buy the top stars to use them in Blacktop mode? If so Im about to be ticked...

Re: 2K taking too much away from the game??

Some of us have been playing 2k since 2k...
Some of us have no choice & converted because Live is no longer.
Some of us just like video games....
Whatever the case may be...

We all realize 2k does this.
It isnt something they arent aware of...
They control what goes in & out the game...
Its never going to change...they'll always take a 1 huge leap forward and 2 small steps back....

They always do

Re: 2K taking too much away from the game??

The game reminds me of NBA Live 05 for some reason... It was fun as well. I think 2k is also slowly moving away from a legend centered game.
