Current State of the 2K Series

[DC]

For some reason he either: I am explaining to him that dropping the dunk max will cause those crazy dunks to vanish in traffic.

1. Doesn't WANT to change it

2. Doesn't believe me

But he won't even test it. How can he not know this to be true is my issue

wow. I think they need to get rid of him for next year.

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

I just find it funny that he just dismissed the idea. He didn't even test it. What kind of message is that sending? I am 900% sure in what I am saying considering I lower the dunk scale every year. I don't know man, whoever he is; they need to get rid of him

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

I can tell you how, being that I use to intern for EA Sports years ago at their old EA Chicago office. From my experience people don't listen to testers 99% of the time, especially when it comes to sports games.

Even if you show them to their face, most of them going to take that attitude of who are you and no way in hell am I going to re-code this for you, because you don't sign my check.

I swear they use the same code every year. They just copy n paste. That is why you see the same problems in sports games EVERY year. I was there for 4 years and they only changed the code engine TWICE.

Other then that they just added new code for a new move or whatever to the same bad engine. It is not until you get the attention of their boss would they change something.

Now you're losing credibility in my eyes with each subsequent post regarding this.

LMAO.

I dont have a problem with the dunks after turning the DIT slider down.

Unfortunately, I think we can safely assume that anyone expecting a solid simulation experience in 2k10 using the default rosters and settings will be once again disappointed.

Again, the TYPES of dunks in traffic is my issue. If I take Iggy with the Insiders Rosters and Shot Stick AWAY in TRAFFIC, I will do a reverse dunk IN traffic.

THAT is an issue that needs to be fixed. They refuse to distinguish between fastbreak dunks and halfcourt dunks.

I KNOW they know the difference because the commentators acknowledge it and also in College Hoops they give you credit for dunking ON someone.

So I KNOW they have the resoruces

Me neither. That whole discussion is pretty silly IMO.
Asking the Insider to change all dunk types to your liking...I couldve told you youd be dissapointed lol.

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

I mean most of us only play sim dudes; so we will hardly even see any dunks in traffic, so that might be why "you don't have an issue."

Why do you feel it is silly that I am bothered by unrealistic dunks in traffic? Why silly?

Yep, this thread certainly suggests that. Thanks 2K Insider for helping me save some dough and headaches this year.

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

Yea then he hit me with the, "It isn't a ratings issue, it is a gameplay issue." Come on how can you just brush it off like that. It is a gameplay issue that CAN be fixed by adjusting the ratings. I am sure he knows this too. I don't know man.

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

Serious question, why are you so against dunks?

[DC]

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

I am not against dunks, I am against all form of arcade gameplay. Crazy dunks in the half court is NOT basketball. Either 2K should FIX this issue or they should remove the word, "Simulation" from the front of their case.

I just hate fake stuff.....

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

I kept Dunks in Traffic the same and lowered the dunk ability to 36

Re: So The 2K Insider and I Are Discussing The DUnk Issues

The thing when you edit dunk ability, it throws the ratings out of whack. If the ratings were correct, then we shouldn't have to edit ANY of the rating based sliders. (Neon theory). If players had the correct dunk ratings, then we wouldn't even need to touch the dunk ability slider.

Also remember, this is online talk discussion. I don't use those weak rosters when I am playing off line so I don't have this issue. I am speaking about ONLINE using the Insiders Roster Set.
