Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

Nothing to really see here. Way too short to examine but some updated models are in.

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

I'm kinda worried because in the last 2 teasers we saw Steph swishing a 3 with a hand in his face and Harden hitting a 25 foot fadeaway.

Yeah, because neither one of those guys have done those things during the course of a game.

Its basically what they both do in real life though, and its highlights so they have to make it look good, now if this happens all the time in the full game then yea its cause for concern.

These teasers are highlight reels. All you're gonna see is standout plays.

Yeah, I know they do that. But I also played in the Rec Center during the last few months. I wanna be clear: I'm not complaining, I'm just worried... I really really wanna have fun with Pro-Am.
Nothing to say about the Steph video, shooting is his main skill, but I hoped they would show Harden driving and pulling an and-1 with an eurostep.

That Harden dunk is concerning. It's like DeAndre Jordan isn't even there.

Too much can go wrong (wonky animation, non scanned player gets too much screen time, etc.), also shooting the 3 allows for his celebration to kick in which I knew they'd showcase.

I don't know what y'all expect from these. These are about hyping the stars on the cover not in-depth gameplay where you get to see the fabric of the socks or leg definition or some sort of revolutionary game-changing gameplay mechanics. It's supposed to get you hype for the game and it accomplished that for me at least.

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

The light seems to be the same as last year, too dark atmosphere. IMHO

I really need to see some more gameplay. As of now I'm a bit concerned about the crossovers I've seen. Looks like the same lazy, stiff, unexplosive crossovers from over the years. These crossovers just look unconvincing to me, like they are crossing with no real purpose. They also seem to lack any signature style.

Granted this is a very limited selection of crossovers, maybe 2-3, but I don't like seeing that they seemed unchanged very last year. Hopefully once actual gameplay trailers are released we see some more fluid crossovers with more variety and signature style.

You also need to take in account that the difficult from this clip was likely no higher than pro. I doubt we'll see these shots being made consistently on high difficulties. If not thanlike god we have sliders.

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

Yes, Stance is the new sock provider for the NBA and one of the biggest things is they have team specific socks that can match the uniforms. The Hawks are actually the first team to truly incorporate socks into their uniforms:

Ugh. I'm just too old school. Either solid white or solid black socks for me.

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

Gameplay glimpses don't raise my hopes for some groundbreaking gameplay inovations tbh.

Players still lack awarness (KAT completely losing Howard who one his side doesn't give a about rebound positioning or boxing out) and dunk animations still magically push defenders away like a feather. No physical contact.

Disappointed for now.

Re: NBA 2K16 Digital Short - James Harden: Believe

They could easily put more game play footage in these videos, I understand what they're doing but, it doesn't really get me hyped for the mode. They should have put out all three videos at the same time, while explaining what Be The Story is.
