I don't care if it's 2k camera and LeBron is playing for Sacramento. As long as the basketball is played realistically and LeBron plays like LeBron. Each to their own. We're all just out here trying to enjoy the game. There's no right way to play. There seems to be a lot of arrogance and condescending remarks from some of SimNation and its just tiring. I figured simnation and other sim players would be encouraging people to get better and play more sim. Not berating them into it and ripping on them while sitting atop your high horse. But again. Each to their own. This is one of the youtubers I actually like. It's not like we're talking about Gento or Cash. Smh.

Bruh, you aren't the one on youtube making these claims and secondly we get to see these guys play all the time. They aren't all exactly the sim gamers they claim to be (some of them I mean).. just like now he sounds like he's doing the video for views, not because he gives a crap about what the community wants to know.

I understand what guys like Prime started years ago.... THIS is not what it was. They took it and its about the popularity and views and subs now. Even his twitter info was vague and useless when they were at the event.

Like I said, Maybe they should invite Cardi Luciano next year. That dude played, gave out days of information, and it wasn't just for hype reasons but it got you excited because he was excited. Go listen if you don't believe me.

They'd care if some item of the game was getting hammered on OS because that word of mouth travels VERY quickly from this site.

I see other sites mention and link to OS all the time.

I understand pulling in a Chris Smoove or even a Shakedown2012 but you gotta evolve too man.

Or maybe they don't want to invite a bunch of high school kids to promote their game?

This is about cheap advertising nothing more you pay for a flight, a meal and maybe a hotel and they are able to get the word out to millions of potential customers, with Smoove alone potentially 2 million people, and wasn't Dustin from OS invited so we can't claim that a representative from here was not involved in the event.

Passing needs a complete overhaul imo. Some passing/catching animations are horrible and take way too long to play out. Oh well. Gameplay monday anyway.

Pick and roll passing especially. You try to lob to DeAndre and Nate Robinson will steal it with out jumping. If you try to hit the roll man in stride he fumbles the ball and it ends up as a turnover or a dumb layup animation. Passing really does need a overhaul. Not being able to pass to the roll man really kills offenses like the Clippers and Spurs.

In order to play true to life you have to play on broadcast? You do realize real players don't see the game from ANY of the camera angles available in the game right? I'm more sick of peope on forums being elitist snobs than someone trying to promote something that provides their livelyhood. I don't recall you saying this when the SimHangout is telling you when to come back and view more of their content.

I know what its about from marketing..but that doesn't mean one of the several guys here who does youtube videos don't have a crowd they can reach.

LD2K followed CardiLuciano on twitter and he got a ton of followers, answered questions for days and put up 2 LONG videos just to explain even more.

Lets stop acting like it all begins and ends with guys like 2BG


As I said I understand Smoove, thats a straight business deal. I just knew he'd stay after the other guys left and guess what, he stayed as they all got back on the plane but he does love playing their My Career mode (which he'll probably most likley help advertise again)

Shakedown asks tough questions, he's very mature and not hot headish like some of these forum posters, he organizes his stuff well (im sure his business development degree helped) and he explains his thoughts concisely so you understand what he is saying.

I really dont have issue with those guys or anything of the sort. Yes Dustin is a writer/editor from OS, but that's not what we were talking about and you know it.
