NBA 2K13 Video - Another Quick Clip From Gamescom

[Profit89]

I believe the guy moved DWade on his own by accident.
Other than that, the first thing that jumped at me are the improvement in the graphics. I like.
Also, I noticed Westbrook was pointing things out like calling a play or something while he was bringing up the ball. Pretty sure that wasn't here the past 2 games.
Oh btw new Durant sigshot at 1:08

Yeah I saw that, he was calling the play with his arm up. That was cool.

Guys look at DWade from 00:26. Wth is he doing?

User error he didn't know who he was controlling.

What are your thoughts JersezReign?

And thanks for the vid.

I'm going to type something formal up like DaWolf. A quick impression though? 2k11 will be dethroned. But I literally just walked into the house -- my first priority is to message LD2k about a bug I seen though. Video will be uploaded within the next 10 minutes -- full thoughts will be typed up after I relax a little -- it was a 2 and half hour drive going almost 100 mph the whole time

Maybe it's just me, but the camera angle looks improved.

At a glance, the fluid movements tied in with the camera made it look like a real broadcast to me.

Agreed. That was indeed nice to see. I sort of saw it coming, after a big thread about it last year, where a guy at OS brought the idea up, but worded it horribly, was subsequently roasted by everyone here, then had a 2K developer step into the thread and state the original thread starter's thoughts had given him a great idea for 2K13 (thus swiftly quieting all detractors).

Added translation to OP.

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Another Quick Clip From Gamescom

yeah, it's still hard to tell from such a small sampling, but the movements still seem to have that sluggish feel from 2k12...slow acceleration, slow directional changes, lack of explosiveness. but, like i said, it's still a small sampling so i'm not jumping to any conclusions yet.

i was hoping in 2k13 they'd bring back those quick, responsive movements from 2k11, but it's looking closer to 2k12 in terms of the slow-feeling movement. the problem i had with 2k12 was that none of the movements seemed to have a sense of urgency. the players always moved at this medium pace like they were doing practice drills rather than playing a full-speed nba game. it seems like the process of trying to smooth out the movement in 2k12 forced the game to have that slower feel.

I was really hoping for the same thing lol. That was my biggest gripe with 2k12 was the horrible player movement and all the sliding and unresponsiveness of players as they moved around on the court and tried to change directions. It looks like its improved in 2k13, but still doesn't look to be as explosive or responsive of foot movement like what 2k11 had.

Hey Steve, why didn't you use my translation? Not to knock guylian but I think mine's a bit more accurate.

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Another Quick Clip From Gamescom

LIl' thin I just noticed, Thabo catches the ball in his left hand then starts dribbling immediately without touching the ball with his right. Almost all in one motion.

*strokes chin*

Alright nah, 2K. I wonder, there any chance of this kinda thing happening, hm?
<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ShccPV4NsMA" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="560"></iframe>.

Chance of implementing touch passing, perhaps? Lil' give and go magic? Eh? Tryin' to increase fluidity of ball movement? A lil' change of passing on a dime to take advantage of a gap in the defense?



Or was that in last year's game I just never noticed?

Maybe there a skill attribute for sharp passers like nash, Paul & co?

I am hopeful they added SOME of the balance your wanted to the defense. Where the moves may not appear as explosive as your wanting if the defense has been slowed in the form of weight and not magi-sliding into position the moves when used properly will be able to get you open.

That is what I talked to them about when I was there. We spend a good deal of time and they even put in some new code to regulate defensive reaction time based on the player vs player matchup.

My hope is that in the end product that even though you don't explode as your wanting... In the right matchup's the moves are still effective.
