NBA 2K13 Online Impressions

[bigball12]

I think that it's necessary to have a separate thread for the early online impressions. Through 4 pages of the 'generic' impression thread, only 1-3 posts have discussed even the mildest of online gameplay. The Q & A section is dry when an online question is asked as well.

Can we please get some impressions of private games? 3 on 3 Blacktop team up? Can we use classic teams online in private team up? Etc.

Dont bump threads. If people have impressions they will post them.

Insane. Have you gotten to try any private stuff? I heard this year you NEED someone in the lobby to change anything at all.

For Online Association

The Good:
-You can indeed stop, slow, and speed up the OA pace
-All sliders/tendencies are in OA.
-Total Sim Control is in OA, if anybody ever plans on playing the CPU
-Your Coach settings set in the menu now persist to the game. No more changing coach settings before every game.
-PnR plays have been broken out into 3 types - Pick n Roll, Pick n Pop 3pt, Pick n Pop Mid
-This might be for all modes, but Play Practice now allows you to access every play in your playbook instead of the first 4
-Shot feedback works online


The Bad:
-This might be for all modes, but there are no more end of game reels, and signature highlights don't work. In the Box Score at the end of the game, in the help menu there's an option to press X (360) to see them, but it does nothing.
-You can still only see Gametracker plays from the last 2 quarters in 12 min OA.
-The shot feedback seems to be broken for the Shot Release online, it always says my shots are too early, even when i try to hold it longer than the height of the jump (EDIT: This only happens for certain games. Might be dependent on the connection and who is the host)
-Cannot edit or import a custom roster
-For fantasy drafts, when you set your draft order, the available players are still in an annoying arbitrary order with no way to sort them
-For some reason, Admins can see/modify the playbooks of other users.

Just for clarification... Shot feedback works in OA but not in ranked matches?

Let's be fair tho....you were streaming online while trying to play. Not a very good indication.....

Unlike last year, if you start a private lobby this year, you literally cannot do anything until someone else joins. In 2K12 you could set up a private team up, 1 on 1, public team up, set teams, settings etc. all without someone else in your room.

Re: NBA 2K13 Online Impressions

These online ranked matches are just funny....lol. If you combined NBA Jam, Street, and Hangtime all into one game and dipped it in cheese wiz, it might be close to the level of realistic gameplay i've seen so far lol.

Gonna stick with the online leagues this year with the simulation sliders

Edit: What Pared said in this post is pretty much manifesting now.
