NBA 2K10 Q&A

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A

Will the legends from the 50's-80's have the smaller shorts this year or will we see guys like Bob Cousy & Wilt Chamberlain in knee length baggy shorts?

I was just wondering since I don't have Xbox Live (I did however go download the Draft Combine at my friend's house) If I play the DC at my house (remember no xbox live) will I still be able to upload my player from DC to NBA 2k10?

good write up man thanks for all that 2k9 is sounding perfect.
i have a question .
the generic rookies in association mode do they come with accesories at all or beards? in 2k9 no generic rookies came in the league with random accesories or beards soo i was hoping they had this fixed in 2k10 if not maybe you could mention it to one of the developers? it really needs to be fixed because the league becomes very bland in later years when its mostly generic players, i really i dont like editing all the rookies each year. it is very time consuming. thanks man'

If it's anything like the draft combine then yeah is should come with beards at least. I hope they give them accessories though. I have one issue with the combine. Has any besides me noticed that in every game there's a play whether on your team or the opposing team that has either your hairstyle, beard or sometimes even both? Basically they are like your identical twin. Every body else is somewhat unique, but there's just that one that is like a mirror image of your player.

Honestly, though, this dunk would be REALLY IMPOSSIBLE and REALLY RARE to pull off. A lot of things have to be in place before this dunk can be even attempted. First off, all 360 dunks (and all flashy dunks for that matter) require no defenders to be within 15 feet of the dunker -- in front, to the left, and to the right.

Secondly, you have to input a 360 stick twirl in order to execute the move. In 2K9, we mapped some 360 dunks to the Flashy (RSTICK to the left of basket) command and it made them too frequent. Now, you really have to get your stick input mastered in order to pull these babies off.

Thirdly, these dunks have a low shot%. Yes, we have percentage on dunks now. You can pull off the move, but it's never a guaranteed 2 points. The more difficult the dunk, the harder it is to make them.

To the online question, no player will have these dunks in a ranked online game. They're really meant for the My Player mode and Edit Player (offline) if you wanted.

Re: NBA 2K10 Q&A

So ridiculous dunks like that are controllable, just like the 360 layup?

Nice... great move there.

Everyone's got their pet-peeves with video games. This just happens to be one of mine. I love using historic rosters so much but I just can't convince myself of any kind of legitimacy when using teams before about 1991 due to the long, baggy shorts. I wish short shorts, and an NBA Live level of retro jerseys would come about.

Further, I just realized the lack of an eye accessory feature on the Combine. I was hoping Amar'es' need for goggles would be a blessing in disguise and draw on the need for goggle and facemask options.
