No Way you're telling me they're bring back a fundamental part of basketball You gotta be kidding me


Well it's about time they brought it back from 2k11, if you're gonna get rid of the canimations 2k11 had then you have to come up with an alternative to compensate and if this is what they have then bring it on.:wink:



I couldn't stomach another year of those outrageously exaggerated dunks in traffic and not being able to do a thing about it, it's like there wasn't that intimidation factor in the paint to deter them from ramming the paint.........but now

I honestly had no clue. WTF is the reasoning behind that?

I guess Microsoft threw some money at 2K to promote a specific feature. If they have it for curses why can't it be for a hard foul. They can go to the review monitor and review whether it was a flagrant 1 or 2. All of this happens enough throughout the year.

That is straight BS. If they did that, there is NO reason (that I can think of) why we shouldn't have techs and flagrants across all platforms and systems.

The NBA won't allow it. It's not 2K's fault.

I remember Beluba or someone said that the dribbling system of last year was basically just an incomplete precursor to what they really wanted to bring out and we'd understand better this year. I anticipate another embargo lifting and people will rave about how the game handles...well, ball handling.

Then how'd it get on the Kinect version?

I'm talking about flagrants, they think it makes the league look bad.

The questions I have is can every dunk animation be blocked ? And are the blocks dynamic or canned ?

Re: NBA 2K14 Features New Blocking System, Includes the Ability to Block Dunks

I wonder, can you even block an alley oop?

I know that, but even still, they've had animations in the past that would be called flagrants in real life. So if you can have that, and have technical fouls, why not have the ability to be called for a flagrant foul?

Because the league itself wishes there was no flagrant fouls in the actual game, I bet. And the thing on Kinect was a punishment for players that curse outloud and the Kinect picks it up.

It's all about image. The world of NBA 2K is a perfect world. It's just like when the NFL shut down NFL Street having players play in gritty warehouses and parking lots or whatever they were doing.

NBA's stamp, NBA's rules and what they say goes.

I understand all of that. The point is that the NBA claims to enforce these rules, but they're clearly not. So just get rid of them.

Good to hear!!!

Few artistic things, which may have already been mentioned. The blue color of the Golden State's unis....what's up with that? Iggy wearing white accessories on the road (most likely this still hasn't been fixed...sigh). And Lebron James with a wingspan of a 5th grader.
