    Re: NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360) - PS3 Later To

    The issue with the momentum is intrinsically linked to the new controls. Last year, Iso motion was heavily influenced by RT (turbo). You would need a a little running start to commence isomotion.

    This year, iso motion has NOTHING to do with turbo (RT), it is almost exclusively linked to the LT. As soon as that clicked for me, the controls and momentum became instantly intuitive, especially when chaining the moves together.

      I cosign this ! I'm always critical of sports video games but i must admit the controls/responsiveness alone makes 2k11 a day 1 purchase for me.

        All I can say is WOW...went home and played a couple of games at lunch. Its pretty much EVERYTHING I've wanted in a video BBALL ...If you gamble the pc wont dribble around and wait for you to recover...they will launch the 3 or drive. So many wow moments to comment on...but one in particular had a tip pass end up in Ron Ron's hand cutting to the basket, man oh man did Perk get posterized...and 1

          i love the demo. However this is my first game since 2k9 is it normal to have a learning curve to the contols?

The 2k11 controls video shows almost NO use of the Right Trigger when pulling off the crossovers, hesitations, size ups, and spin moves. so why go back to old habits?
            This was a good tip, I'm not use to this in 2K basketball. When Czar said that I was like that won't be me but it was haha!

            The problem for me is I don't see much of a visual difference when I'm pushing hard on the stick and when I'm not. That's what throwing me off b/c the animations make it seem like I'm moving the stick correctly most of the time.

            I can tell when I'm just bringin the ball up the court but once you get in traffic its hard for me to tell. Now that I'm lightly pushing on it though I feel a lot more in control. I'm going to have to get in that practice mode asap because I'm not good at picking up these things during live games.

            Its times like these I wish they included a tutorial or practice session along with the demo. But of course that just asking to much from a 2K demo lol!

              I feel the exact same way man! I'm so excited to play the full game! yes there are going to be flaws in the game but from what i'm seeing right now this game is very close to being the perfect nba simulation

                I wonder what made 2k change the movement and controls so drastically after 2k8. It seems like if they would have just fine tuned that system then the controls, momentum, etc would be fine right now.

                Also just noticed Ray Allen completely boom on Gasol, despite Gasol having good position, directly in front of him, met him at his peak, and bodied him. It looked like it should have been a block or at the very least killed Allen's momentum. Unfortunately the system didn't recognize that and allowed Allen to score basically an uncontested dunk, essentially pushing through a 7 footer in mid air.

                    Im diggin the controls but there are times when I feel they are a bit restrictive. With a guy like KB, in a one on one situation , there aren't many players who can constrict his options. In some instances it feels like the defender is recovering from being faked out too quickly. In those cases it feels like you're attached to the defender and can't break away. An example being the hip ride animation they have. With KB I should be able to either spin off or go into a fake spin to fadeaway shot. Maybe this is possible and I haven't figured out how to pull it off. Anyone done it?

                        1 thing that stood out to me, that is probably different depending on the players sig shots but I hope can be changed in the future, is the pump fake. On the demo every time I pump faked everybody brought the ball drastically over there head and didnt really look like they were about to shoot. But thats a small thing. Everything else is spectacular. Live was promoting looks over controls and 2K has the looks, controls, features, and JORDAN, etc. etc.... Live gets blown away this year. Go 2K!

                          game looks great, but they seriously need to look at there crowd graphics. There pretty ps2 if you ask me. Crowd cut scenes look bad also. Nice presentation and everything, just not clean looking.

                          I know 2k can do it. They know presentation for sure. For some reason they just havent touched up sideline players, coaches, and give at least the closer crowd members more textures.

                            I don't think Pared is really being that much of a "downer". He's right. When you first get into it, think 2K10, you're going to go through an adjustment period. Czar even said this. But once you "get it", you range between acceptance to loving it. Some people get to that point faster than others. So, I think Pared has a MORE than fair gripe as do others. But I also think that the controls are more responsive and FAR more CONSISTENT than 2K10.

                              I love the demo.. I love the controls and how everyone is different but yet still be effective. Derek Fisher and Steve Blake is even a bigger difference this year. (Just foul out Derek Fisher). Im going to foul out Gasol or Bynum, so i can get some time with Odom. All in all, Im really liking what 2k is bringing to the table this year.

                                I just have to say the to me personally not including plays was an **** fail. That is a big part of their authentic movement and they have a 10 day feature on it and they drop the dang demo and all the sudden they want me to take it too the playground... I understand it could just be because I have played the full game but this is just bad to me. To exclude one of your best features out of the demo is a FAIL....

                                So I downloaded the demo and played a few games early and haven't touched it since. MEH... and YES I'm serious.

                                Please use the feathering of the stick to avoid the heavy shifts in momentum. Remember the slightest defensive movements can get you open... YOu don't HAVE to cross someone if a simple change of direction will do.

                                I was so heavy handed coming from 2k10 that I know that has to effect more of you guys also. Try it out on both offense and defense. On d try to use the least amount of pressure that will keep you in front of your man.
