NBA 2K19 The Prelude Available Now on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, Post Impressions Here

[aylmer1981]

Played a game on pro and started the mycareer.

Compared to last year and overall

Graphics:
- Clay like/not realistic looking expected more of an improvement

Gameplay:
+ smoother gameplay than last year, smoother transitions, passing and layups
+ new passing animations
Also, not sure if overhead pass and the ability to hold the button down was there in previous years
+ better, smoother and more realistic defence animations
- some might complain still slight feel of not having control of your player ie. skating

Overall Compared to last year: 8/10
Overall Fun Factor 9/10

Other Notes
+ Face Scan finally works better, easier to scan no lighting requirements needed and better outcome!
+ myCareer has a great scenery heading into creating your character
+ Fouled a player using Steph, he was looking at the ref disgruntled with the call
+ shooting is fun
Hopefully the new hot and cold system works realistically

Full icon player control is still in the game - one of my favorite things about the game. Allows me to orchestrate my own freelance offense. Clipping still an issue (don't click on spoiler tag if you don't want to see). It's never really been a gamebreaker to me, it doesn't really bother me all that much. But it's there. Spoiler

Man your attention to detail is a gift and a curse haha.......

I honestly wasn’t even looking for it. Played through 8 minutes of prelude, for some reason on that particular play, I simply wanted to check out the replay because I got a block.

Mostly been playing around with the builds. Will save delving into the story for after I wake up.

So far seeing some interesting combinations. You can really see how they tried to differentiate the positions. Seems like most PG builds get dimer to at least silver. Adding playmaking takes it to gold. Liking the look of the shot/play at PG. Though i'm still tempted to actually go with a two-way shot at SG.

Shot/post at PF is interesting.
