The amount of sliding and unnatural movement in 2K19 is heartbreaking...

Ya I agree, but at a certain point there is some harm when it makes the threads toxic to a degree....... I mean the best sports game out gets talked about like it belongs in the dollar bin lol

Anybody got ideas which sliders to tweak to reduce magnetic sliding? The gameplay is so good but the constant sliding and force field adjustments of players is the worst I ever remember in a 2k game. Something must be causing it no?

Players are literally lateral shifting several feet.

I'm honestly kind of surprised you dont find this to be more of a problem there with this being an important issue for you. Not trying to strike up comparisons but this particular type of play would be my Exhibit A into the drawbacks of overdoing it on the footplanting side.

To be honest, I haven't seen much of that in Live yet, but I also haven't had the setup for it much either. I'm still spending time learning the plays for the Cavs, so I'm not doing a lot of driving a dumping into the paint at this point.

That being said, Live has their own issues to work out with with responsiveness with the ball, but I haven't seen any of the defenders sliding and warping into position like in my clip above.

It's really disappointing, because that would have been a fantastic highlight play, but instead it turned into an example of a legacy issue.

The sliding can ruin the suspension of disbelief BUT Czar said it is that way because that's how they get the best flow/movement on the court, particularly with playsets and stuff. He said they tried tighter foot planting in one of the series but it limited what players could do on the court. So i dunno, pick your poison i guess. 2K gameplay is just gonna be a balancing act until next gen. They change one thing and it sacrifices another. It's a constant cycle, and it will continue to go round and around until somebody builds a new physics/gameplay engine from the ground up with these learnings in mind.

Yeah, figures that was the case. Hopefully I can get used to it and just enjoy; right now it's killing me. It really does look and feel like one of those magnet games at times especially when there's a cluster of players close together, as they all shift around without moving their feet. See it also in PnR with the defense.

This year's game is great. However, I still get sucked into animations way too easily. Also, some animations give an unnatural speed boost.


Common example is the running deny ball animation. Both you and the CPU will move at speeds much higher than your turbo.


It's not as bad as previous 2K, but still need improvement. There's still too much jerky, abrupt direction changes that's not really possible in real life, which makes playing defense against athletic players very, very annoying.


If they tone it down a notch or two it'll be perfect, IMO.

Reported from another (famous) forum. Please 2K, almost try to fix it, these animation really ruins the very good job you did this year
