Few notes: -coaches and assistants wearing suits/jackets. Not just sweater vests. That's good. -as mentioned, no players wearing warmups on the bench. Small eye-sore. Surprising ommission to me. -paused a couple times. Crowd looked a little more repetitive than i expected. Fans wearing Heat jersey with no #. Even sitting in same patterns, etc. Hopefully this improves down the line. Crowd looked very similar to current gen in that vid to me

The start of the video was current gen.

That's something you definitely won't get from a short gameplay video, among other things. Can't wait for you guys to see more and get to experience this.

still looking forward to the game, nov 15 can't come sooner.

Kidds base has been spot on for a while IMO

For Curry last year my edit was

Form: Steve Nash
Base: J Kidd

The only problem was that it was too slow. Now by adding different release points on the forms (like quick, normal, late) it would have gotten rid of the only flaw in that edit.

James Harden's shot is wrong too. He should also be given the J Kidd base. Paul George as well. From what it looks like Melo should have either the McGrady base (if it's still in the game) or the Kobe base. Kyrie should also have the McGrady base if it's still there.

Demarcus Cousins is probably still wrong (he's another player that needs the J.Kidd base). Just. UGH. Last year JR was perfect with Form/Release 27. It was perfect for him. Have no idea why they gave him the shot they gave him. Don't get me started on Timmy Duncan or Tony Parker. They been doing them wrong for years too.

Just. Ugh. These little visual mishaps that take you out of the immersion just get on my last nerves.

Looking at the game in motion the graphical leap appears no greater or worse than what we have seen from other sports games in next gen. So from the very beginning I've not been so goo goo ga ga over graphics for any of these games. They all look great. My biggest want and need is game-play...If foot-planting and improved animations and AI solve some of the legacy issues with this game both for offline and online then I'm happy.

Just look at Mark Jackson...Ezeli....Barnes....O'Neal.....just wow. Can't wait to experience this game myself.

One of my biggest gripes with 2k was the crowd and how they damn near cheer the entire game and everyone looked the same. The next gen crowd looks human and I like how some of the crowd is leaning in their chair.

Things like emotion , no sliding, playing Against improve A.I are things you can't get in a quick video like that. If I recall he only played til halftime right? Wish the video was better quality I mean that was YouTube-like.

The physics and foot planting looked nice. Current gen looks cartoony compared to this.

Video is definately current gen until the 21st second.
