Re: NBA 2K: Let's Talk About Some NBA 2K Audio Issues

After a big shot or a big dunk, the announcers get hyped with the 'Oooooooooooohhhh what a play" and the crowd is no where to be heard. The crowd should react to every steal, every block, every basket, but they don't. Even with the introduction, it's just one tone and that's it. Usually when the PA Announcer calls the last player, the franchise player, they usually get the loudest ovation, things like this matter. I wish they would get it right


Man I agree the crowd is not only partly involved but don't give us the proper responses at the right time. Sometimes you go on a run or hit a big shot or even 2 in a row and they not only go dead but they sit down instead of stand up.

Imagine Reggie Miller hitting those 3s in the playoffs vs the Knicks and the arena went dead silent. It just doesnt happen.


Another thing that REALLY needs work is what used to get on my nerves in NBA2K5 when you dunked the ball. Sometimes it would go down like you finger rolled it.

This was fixed a couple of years ago when they decided to make the ball go through the rim with more force on dunks... Well shooting long 3's, its pretty much the same at times. It feels like an Al Jefferson finger roll.

What you get is the ball softly going in, and the sound is really weak, you NEVER hear the net rip...kinda like you do here around 13 seconds


With the rim being pulled down, and the net snapping or swishing hard, that would do wonders for the sound of this game in that area. Its been ignored/left as is for years although some have made mention of it.

All of the improvements in the game and keeping this the same makes it stick out even more and more.

Here is a regular normal swish that could easily stand for a regular jumper which sounds more like paper right now than this
