Re: NBA 2K17 Gameplay Blog with Gameplay Director, Mike Wang

beluba, will u add any new broadcast camera angles? i wish u would add the warriors camera angle as another option, with the option zoom in a bit more.

I spent a couple days updating the broadcast dynamic stadium-specific cameras to better match the real life broadcast angles. I think Oracle is a tad closer now.

cool, but it's under stadium cameras. i would love to have the option to use the warriors camera alone as my main camera, just as beluba cam and the generic broadcast cam. both i love.

Mike is the hands up right stick defense in?

All of this sounds great. I can't wait to actually play it for myself. I wonder if the re-designed fatigue and injury systems mean that we will actually see severe on court injuries?

Mike what is the boost that you get when shooting with the pro stick as opposed to square/X... if I'm using the stick and my opponent is using buttons will i have an advantage?

They are trying to bring back NBA Street Gamebreakers with allowing alley-oop passes out of shots and even other alley-oops lol.

I'll need to see what the caps are looking like but based on the MyCareer trailer it looks like the archetypes are a little too restrictive. No all-around archetype? Or even 3&D? We should be able to improve a little past the caps based on in game performance, practice drills, etc but that's a whole other discussion.

Overall, great news in this blog though.

Just to note: You could already throw Oops out of shots and lay ups. You can do it in 2k16. The oops out of oops is something I've wanted for a long while. You guys think street, forgetting that this play happens in game in the league (looking at you, JR Smith and Iman Shumpert)

Super excited and thank you!! I'm here for the post game aka backing down aka mans game.

Mike, can you answer a question about the shot stick? Does the direction you need to pull the shot stick change based on camera angle/where the player is on the court or is it the same no matter what? Because one of the community day guys said that it changes but I hope not.

Ahh I actually didn't know you could do that in 2k16 I guess I never really had a reason to try. And yea I remember that play was crazy, very rare though lol

My only question Mike Wang is about face up jumpers out of the post up. I've notice the post game was changed again. Will you be able to make steal attempts as the defender?

Paul George fixed! Yeah just take my money.

Outside of the atmosphere/crowd, this has been my biggest pet peeve.

Luckily Freelance was pretty good last year so I stuck with that but I always prefer to call plays on most of my possessions.

Live, as bad as the gameplay could be at times, made play calling fun. More times than not I got good looks and was able to get other players involved.

Are lobs in the half court improved? Not being able to rely on DeAndre Jordan to catch lobs from CP3 made the Clippers not feel like the Clippers. There was also a lot of instances where lobs were being thrown with the wrong hand resulting in turnovers and inaccurate passes.

Yea that's been my biggest problem with Alley Oops.... You really good passers like Paul give a those angles he's able to get.
