2K Holding Back Gameplay Footage because of Huge Leap?

They claimed it was because the Gamescom crowd isn't typically made up of basketball fans.

Right but they never officially show gameplay. People just record crappy footage on their crappy phones. They're probably tired of leak footage in 120p that don't do the game justice.

Or maybe they are hiding something...

I haven't been this excited for 2K in a long time...

I just have this feeling that this is the year it comes together.

Some of you guys let your imaginations take ya'll far far away. You build up the level of hype, so when info is released, it doesn't live up to your expectations. I've been playing this game since the Dreamcast days, and ive enjoyed this franchise more than others. I understand the wish lists, and complaints. I have a few of both myself, but try not to go all Star Wars with anticipation. With that said, im sure good things are instore.

Also I have noticed that player movement looks different (more fluid) then any Nba 2k game in history, and thats based on the little that we have seen. I think they are hiding something MAJOR about gameplay. What are ya'lls thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What video did he state this? Are you talking the two words video that they never mentioned?

Where he said something about the something giving their dev's a hard time?

Here is what my guess was

Quote:

The big Mike Wang announcement has to do with animations or visual. "It is going to make the game look significantly better than any game that was made before it" There are only a couple of things that can make the game look better, better scanned models which they didn't announce but I think was pretty much leaked already. The players faces are already scanned so now they may have added scanned arms to get full body scans. While I don't know how difficult this is it doesn't seem something that body scans should be stressing out the A.I. Engineers The other thing that would make the game look significantly better is signature movement and I can see how this could stress out A.I. engineers especially because it involves capturing different running styles and would mean they have to animate a bunch of different players running movement style. The two words are Signature Ecomotion Basically 2K roots are deeply set into Signature everything, shots, dunks dribbling and even celebrations now. This new Signature Ecomotion will basically incorporate signature running syles and movement so that players will now run, move more like themselves. It is the next level of blurring the lines between TV and video games and I think it will make the difference in players really noticeable when playing and viewing. This idea came up in a 2k15 Simulation idea thread while they were making 2K15 someone mentioned something about signature movements and I just ran with the Signature movements

I think there will be game play improvements and actual movement improvement that will probably be in a Dev diary.
