NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Presentation

^I second that.

Competition is great for us. Just look what's happened this year, after Live 10 made a big push and was a threat to 2k for the first time on this generation of consoles, we're rewarded with 2K11!

Luckily, no matter how poor of a game Elite is, I don't think we need to worry about a 2K let down next year, not with the base they've built. They could do nothing but refine and add animations for 2k12 and I'd probably be satisfied, the next great "leap" will happen on the next generation of consoles.

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Presentation

I don't know who else feels the same way, but I actually feel bad for EA this year. I am pretty neutral when it comes to Live or NBA 2k. I even have bought both games some years. But this year, I don't even feel like there is any competition. At this time of the year i am usually debating if I should buy one or the other. Even way before this insight, I was sold on 2k.

It has never been so clear who will have the better game.

Yep if seems like it. Looks like EA is getting desperate by including NBA JAM as part of the game. It is clear (after viewing videos, playing the demo, reading previews and impressions) if you are looking for a sim and true to life experience of the NBA, NBA 2K11 is the game to get. I for one will be renting NBA Elite. If it's any good, I will be buying it sometime later when the price drops.

Competition doesn't hurt either, and I'm glad we have 2 basketball games to look forward to.

I love the competition, and I think that's what Madden is missing. The last thing I want to do is make this a vs. thing, but it sure does seem to help the consumers when the developers THEMSELVES feel like it is a VS thing.

Move on from the EA discussion in here guys

This is a presentation discussion about 2k

You can go to the Basketball (other) forum to talk about the differences of each game

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Presentation

Can't wait to see what NBA Today 2.0 is and how it fits into Association mode. This presentation is awesome! My dream of showing highlights of other games ala old Madden & NHL games is barely hanging on.

I don't think they will cover that during the Association half time shows, probably will just discuss the scores. Still awesome, and maybe something they can add for next year.

I'm pretty sure that NBA 2K11 will be a good contender for sports game of the year.

Question here,

So what happens if a Team is SPANKED? are we going to see people leaving? with like 2 mins left in the 4th quarter?

Also, how does dynamic attendance affect assoc and jordan legend challenge? say you are the cavs, you have either jordan on your team or you now have a legit team, will assoc acknowledge by popularity? or is it pre-programmed in from lasts year based on the 09-10 attendace?

From the Insight:

Also, check out the arena at the beginning of the 3rd quarter to notice that some of the crowd takes its sweet time getting back to their seats. If you’ve ever been to an NBA game in person, you know that the lines for EVERYTHING (bathrooms, concession stands, etc…) can take a while so we thought it would be cool to represent this in the game. And if you are the unfortunate victim of a stomping on your home court, don’t wait for our NBA2K11 crowd to stick around for triple zeros.

To add on to that, what if your team sucks through the season, will the total attendance numbers be down or go up if you happen to be on a hot streak?
