I've been saying this before I even got in the industry but it's a mistake to judge the final product based on watching snippets of footage. For any game really. Feel is so important and you get none of that from watching these clips.

2K should let a few guys record a few official gameplays from gamescom every year. Youtubers could be usefull for once. Or even guys from OS like DaWolf. It would be better publicity for the game than theses shaky, stolen videos of randoms who have never played a basketball game before.

Gameplay is gonna leak either way, might aswell control it and make the game shine.

Any way you can pull some strings and let them get some video of you playing at some point? I wouldn't mind get two or three vids throughout the course of the summer of you or Erick or one of the guys playing against the AI or each other in like a minute and a half, two minute clip just to get us a better look at how things are coming along from guys that can show the way this thing can look.

But I will say that we've made big strides in gameplay this year and with experienced users on the sticks the game can look beautiful. As always you'll just have to take my word on that for now.

why dont you guys just have ronnie/ld play a quick 5min quarter or something then rather than making us watch scrublies?

I just hope the Pistons jersey was fixed this year, as well as the raptors jersey.

That's what I like to hear !! I'm excited

Beluba, please, just a real quick Yes or No answer.

Is the defensive icon back or can we choose to see it at least for Online Leagues?

Nothing to announce at this time. Historically, we've never been playable there (though I'd like to see it be personally).

Indeed. I'm calling the gameplay team the SWISS KNIFE this year. Cutting that cheese straight in half. And it's beautiful. You guys will love what the team has done to battle that player behavior (aka cheese) this year.

Hopefully ranked games will be fun again. So much cheese in that the past few years.
