No sir, at least I cannot find an option for this in the settings anywhere

1. Do the defensive settings work?

2. Are there any new defensive setting options?

3. Any new player ratings?

Are you coming from 2K21 next gen?

1- Can you tell us if they added any signatures for Jordan? Or notable legends? Any changes to MJ or likeness?

2- As I’m famously obsessed about, do they have any helicopter city views during broadcast games back?

3- Any differences to franchise mode outside of all the staff stuff they did? Like any new immersive elements?

4- Does the CPU double team hot players?? In the gameplay footage doesn’t appear so.

5- Finally, are game intros as a whole the same as 2K21? Or better at all? Not talking about the actual player intros, just all game intros as a whole.

Going through the settings as I play. Early to say. They seem responsive at this point. Have used. give it up, no threes, and drive for extended points in games to good result.

no new settings

no new ratings/attributes.

Thanks. Another question.. Does leave him work?

Any chance you can see if there's a public All Star Team Up option from the "Play with Friends" menu/locker room? I know there's a Player Control option in PNO, but I enjoy teaming up with friends, which you can't do in the Player Control mode. If the servers aren't up yet, you might not be able to check on that yet. Figured I'd ask though.

Yeah Im coming from next gen 21

1. Not sure, gave up on classics a few years back.

2. Sadly have not seen any of those views as of yet.

3. Seems everything is exactly the same, plus all the staff stuff. Haven't had a chance to see how effective any of that is tho.

4. Im playing HOF, and struggling to get hot enough to tell as of yet. I saw some of that footage earlier. Im looking for it myself.

5. The intros are all mostly similar to last year, but there are slight variations to what we got last year. if that makes sense. Not really anything different per say.

Theres a physicality to the game and clearly an emphasis on defense, that makes my approach to playing different. I run a lot of plays, so going iso, doesn't happen a ton, but coming off pick and rolls and getting to the bucket is much tougher than it has been. In the iso situations, the moves that got me free before, don't quite work as effectively, and there is often help.

This might be a dumb question to most, but can we use a custom roster in playoff mode?

Thanks for doing this!
