Re: 3rd Developer Insight

I don't care about the real NBA stuff. This is what matters to me:

Today commentary/presentation will also occur in your Association (but it will be your Association data that drives the commentary, not the real NBA). A quick note: Often during an NBA game, commentators let the visual demonstration of the game lead itself if they are having a conversation. That changes, however, if there is a huge highlight play. If a thunderous dunk rains down, you’ll get the commentators attention. The same can be said during our game.

How dynamic and accurate will the Association commentary be? I'll be extremely impressed if they can make the commentators appear to really be cognizant of what's happening in the Users own Association.

Re: 3rd Developer Insight

no, he said only what's going on in your association

Which will drive the commentary. IMO that's more impressive than what's going on in the League.

My thoughts exactly, the presentation pertaining to the Real NBA doesn't really concern me that much. I'm much more interested in how this all pans out in my association.

I really hope we get some videos so that we can hear some of this stuff.

Re: 3rd Developer Insight

Real good idea as far as ensuring that commentary isn't stale. I wonder what happens in the off-season though seeing as how some of us are still playing well past the NBA finals.

And I also wonder how this works online. Will they still bring up overlays online and speak about the current NBA or will that be sacrificed in order for a smoother online experience? And what about online leagues? Will commentary focus around what's going on in your online league?

Re: 3rd Developer Insight

I can't believe they can do this. Will they have the commentators continue to record lines throughout the season? And how the hell will the game know what's going on in my association as opposed to someone else's?

Re: 3rd Developer Insight

Wow, all I can say is wow. Dynamic commentary, during quick games and in association. Your off to a nice start with the features 2K, im impressed.

Re: 3rd Developer Insight

Sounds cool enough. I can't wait to see how it handles my completely fictional league. Hopefully it works just the same in association mode.

That's what I want to know..
