NBA 2K1: Animation and Sig Moves Request

[JKSportsGamer1984]

One move I wish they would get rid of is when your player dribbles between his legs with the same hand when standing still. It's way overdone & happens too often. That move should only be assigned to one or two players in the league. The only players that I've ever seen do that move in real life are CP3, LeBron, & Step Curry. So why is does every player do it in 2K14? Which leads me to my next point, we need more signature isolation dribbles similar to how 2K12 had them. They went away from them when they transitioned to this new dribbling control scheme. They just need to expand on signature dribbling overall. I don't want to see multiple players doing the exact same dribble moves.

I think one thing that would really help would be to separate each move, like it used to be. Once they rolled up all of the dribble moves into packages, it really cut down on the individuality. There should be different choices for crossovers, double crossovers, behind the back, etc. There should also be a way to select a different animation depending on which hand you're using, so my left to right crossover can be different (my choice) from my right to left crossover.

A large portion of Kawhi Leonard and Lance Stephenson's dunk repertoire (most often when they jump off of one foot) involves both of them palming the rock statue of liberty style before their finishes. As a result, a lot of their one-footed jams lack in super power and velocity (as palming dunks become more wrist dependent than full arm dependent) but they're pretty identifiable.





Off two feet, their dunks look much more standard (good dunks, but more similar to what other players do - not quite as unique as their one-footed statue of liberties):

We desperately need QUICK JUMP REBOUNDING/BLOCKING ANIMATIONS. Seriously, watch any NBA game,or basketball game, hell go play basketball in real life. People DO NOT, jump for a rebound slowly, or jump, and then take 5 seconds to gather themselves to jump again, unless they fell over someone. Players also do not stumble back 4-5 steps after jumping for a rebound or block, we need more explosiveness/quickness.

For instance, when the iso-motion was revamped (I think in 2K12 or 2K13), many signature dribbling packages were removed to allow for the seamless introduction and response of the new right-stick dribbling. As a result, after years of building up great custom ball handling animations, suddenly everyone was dribbling alike again. I still have nightmares of accidentally triggering that behind-the-back, spin-move combo all the time by pressing back on the right stick. I'm betting that could have been the case with some of the other removals as well.

I understand the isomotions being changed because of what you've stated, that's why I didn't talk about dribbling because they went into a whole different direction. But I don't see why some players jumpers and layup and dunk animations had to be taken out.

Like my last example, Steve Nash's layups and also Tony Parker's I believe is gone. I don't see how that would interact poorly with the new elements in the game.

a very few of the moves are NBA level from post moves to close range shots, to the layups.

The only things that are on point are the dunks and the speed of some of the cross overs.

Look at the difference between the signature step backs ( the ones that were actually mo-capped by nba players) vs the generic ones. Theres a level of difference in the explosiveness.

i believe most animation packages were removed to cut down on memory usage....since that isnt a problem on next gen, i would expect that there be over 100+ dribble animations, and more layup packages (Id like custom layup packages like we have dunk now, where we could choose our type of euro/spin/hop individually and not use just 1 "type")

can we get some of Kyrie Irving's Layups in the game, the moves he got are ridiculous
