Anyone play NBA 2k9 after playing Draft Combine?

[kenzil]

I have gotten a lot better at the game (especially on defense). I am having fun playing the 'right' way. I cannot wait for 2k10 so that I can play a smoother game. The draft combine has forced me to play even more sim than I already have in the past and now the game plays better...anyone else try this?

The big thing was how huge the players were in 2k9. I never thought that the players were that big but after playing the combine it was a really big difference.

No. 2K9 has always been an unplayable mess for me, so I'm just waiting for 2K10.

Yea, the combine made me want to dust off 2k9...I made a athletic point gaurd in the combine and theb played my Association with the bulls and the 1st thing I started doing was getting every rebound I could and laying off the turbo...I had D. Rose getting triple doubles and my guys weren't getting tired as fast cause I wasn't sprinting them every where. Def. made me look at the game differently. I can't wait to import my guy into 2k10.

I share the same experience...I actually feel like I really know how to play the game the way it is supposed to be played...good job 2k on the tutorial...looking forward to 2k10 and playing some true 'sim' games.

Yeah I did and I even turned my game speed down to match the DC speed. I have gotten better. But sometimes it's still unplayable.

Im an extremest, I made everyone 4 inches shorter and the court space was phenomenal. That along with my sliders breathed new life into 2k9.

I have just started the combine and have not tried 2k9 again, probably won't. I never really liked the single player deal in basketball but I am really loving this one. The AI does a sufficient job of playing the game with my teammates and really I only have a couple complaints which are things I will probably get used to. The only one that really irritates me is when I go to call for a pass right when my teammate decides to pass me the ball and I accidentally do a catch and pass to one of my other teammates. This has cost me a couple breakaway dunks.

Yes, yes, yes!!! I only played 2K9 for about 4 months... I can't play it because all the teams play the same.

Yes, I hope 2K don't add that passing system in 2K10, they need to have it that you have to double tap the pass button to do a quick pass. I don't know how many turnovers or easy shots I have done with this passing system.

I tried to, but DC makes 2k9 look really bad. I'm playing Choops 2k8 tho so I'm still keeping it 2k. lol

Re: Anyone play NBA 2k9 after playing Draft Combine?

I put 2k9 down to be credit toward 2k10 right before the DC came out. Out of curiosity what made it unplayable for you guys? Not trying to down your opinion of the game honestly just curious and didnt want to make a topic for it. I would assume though that lack of defense and player movement would be a big part of it.
