I've only got one thing to say to 2K

I would've liked him to highlight whether the commentary team has more My Player lines this year. I always felt My Player was a little meh in regards to commentary.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #5- My Player

So far everything I've asked for they have included, I love these guys who work in 2k. I asked for fastbreak drill, knockout and around the world and its now in the game

Only thing left is the Nets moving from New Jersey to Brooklyn in association mode. I doubt they have this one but if they do I might scream like a little girl after meeting Bieber.

They really went in depth with the player abilities..

instead of having 1 attribute they went more in depth

Imagine how much this will be a factor on the regular players as well. Players like Durant and Melo will have much better pull up game than Lebron. Unlike on 2k11 where everybody was pull-up artists if they had a mid range game.

This also means more than likely the "shot low post" will be seperated into jump shots and hook shots just like I asked. Players like Zach Randolph and Tim Duncan will be more effective with hook shots, while players like Dirk & Carmelo will be better with fadeaways out of the post.


This is easily gonna go down as the best sports game ever.

Roster makers are going to have a field day with this game.

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #5- My Player

I can confidently say I'll invest more time in My Player this year than I did with 2k11.

all the improvements sound fantastic...

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #5- My Player

This was a very well written insight. My Player appears much more accessible this year. I always liked the idea of having my own career, I just never had enough time to make my way through numerous 82 game seasons. The ability to simulate from key game to key game is relieving. Further, I am pleased to see new drills, as well as a Buzz reading. I'd often positively affect my team's chemistry last year, but I had trouble finding a section that'd tell me how good my team chemistry actually was.

Overall, I'm surely looking forward to this mode. It looks like a lot of fun. With specific "skills within a skill", as opposed to a general "ballhandling" rating, it seems I'll be able to more accurately create my NBA equivalent cyber-VDusen. I'm also happy to see the monotonous summer activities removed. Just a lot of good things happening here.
