NBA 2K11 Premiere Trailer (IGN)

[TreyIM2]

Problem with these random statements in here are

Before you posted you knew it was just a sizzle video and the very first that has been released in which makes no sense to say im disappointed because its not 5 on 5.

Also, to not even acknowledge that you dont see some improvements in some of the areas that were a sore spot like the sliding movement and the jumpers, which you can tell were worked on. Adding what was said in the insights previously, and seeing that matters does it not?

I think the first time we ever saw any 5 on 5 from 2k was when the On the Spot show would come on... probably going to be the same again.

This is just a preview demo as the writer stated

I'm assuming your directing your comments at me because no one else came even close to stating what I said, in any of the recent pages, at least, that you seem to be speaking on and even in that, you are off.

I expressed and understanding that this is just a sizzle trailer and nothing unusual for 2K to do with this franchise but when I say that I want more than just sizzle trailers which is usually all the 2K does with NBA 2K year to year, I get jumped on, eh? The prob with the sizzle trailers is that they don't tell the whole story. The sizzle trailers ALWAYS look great and get you hyped but once I start playing the actual game is issues arise, and it's been like that for a few years with NBA2K. Things just don't get fixed no matter how much icing they put on the cake. I understand that they are trying to make some major improvements to the gameplay so THAT'S what interests ME more than anything, at this point, because we all very well know how much icing 2K love to pile on. I'm more of a cake man, myself, ya dig? Ha.

I can't express that I want to see gameplay improvement vids? Is that not a legit desire? Sorry if I wasn't utterly and completely fawning all over the trailer without a contrary word to what the masses were saying but I did say it was hot and definitely wasn't trying to tear down the goodness in the trailer.

Well the comments yes and no not only yours

but at the same time it makes no sense to come in a sizzle video thread saying I need to see more than a sizzle video.

You know we'll get 5 on 5 later on as always, and I wasnt talking about you fawning over the clips or not, I dont really care.

In that clip where Nash leads Robin Lopez to the hoop and Jermaine O'Neal blocks him, I sure hope we're able to choose which hand we finish with. If that was me playing as the Suns and I pushed left on the shot stick, I would be outraged to see Lopez go up with his right just so the block animation could happen. I'm not feeling very optimistic about this. Only time will tell.

Maybe you should be a rent first guy. That should solve your problem.

john wall's eyebrows look like he just got them trimmed lol

but awesome game trailer makes me pissed that the more I look forward to this game the longer it will take for the release date to come

I actually wish I could've seen more rookies faces but I'm hoping they will have a trailer for that...I mean for introducing the rookie class

Re: NBA 2K11 Premiere Trailer (IGN)

I don't know whether this is an early build, latest build or a mix:

-Looks like the AI CPU will finally be able to do those nasty blocks!! 2K10 AI CPU could not do those canimation blocks human users could. Is 2K11 real-time blocks or canimation blocks? Looks like real-time.

-Didn't see any off-ball physical defense(putting a hand on their man).

-Didn't really see the new mid-air collisions at work. For example the Jordan dunk at 49 sec, there should've been a collision between Odom and Jordan.

Such as a slap on the arm/wrist/bump of the hips. I realize this game doesn't have real-time physics but what about the mid-air collisions? Did notice a lot of switching of the hands mid-air though.

-The court spacing/player size(especially big man in 2K10 as they were too bulky) looks improved. Also the distance/length between the 3-point line and halfcourt line is improved. It should've been 5 feet longer in 2K10.

-Didn't like that Jordan dunk from the free throw line at 1:42. MJ never did it in-game, he did it in an All Star dunk contest. This game is supposed to be Sim/authentic right?

-Jumpers look tight and smooth. Also the footplanting/momentum looks good. Didn't notice any sliding issues.

-I like how Jeff Green fell at 1:31 after taking the shot. Looks like if you contest too tight/close, the defender will bump the offensive player or slap him on the wrist/hand causing a foul. Would also be nice if offensive players fell(while taking the shot) when defensive players are running at them full speed causing a mid-air collision.

-Post-moves look to be sped up which is nice. In 2K10 it was slow and thus too easy to block the shot.

-Looks like contesting shots is more realistic. In 2K10 the defenders got too high off the ground contesting shots(without taking into account body momentum/weight/wingspan) and thus too many blocked shots. Slow unrealistic jumpers were also another reason.

The ONLY good part was the free throw line dunk and Jordan ball fake, but all of it looked like an Adobe After Effects animation using puppet warp feature.

Wow dude. Why don't you just ask Momentous directly? He made the video, right?

Re: NBA 2K11 Premiere Trailer (IGN)

Damn I'm a believer now ... gotta save up for this and elite. Hell of a trailer Momentous

Re: NBA 2K11 Premiere Trailer (IGN)

It looks like textures are in higher res than in 2k10 - or maybe they added some effects.
