NBA 2K12 Impressions, Q&A (From Hands-On Event in Washington, DC)

[Deucifer]

Were their any new dunk and lay-up animations added. And did they add on to the dunk and lay up animations selection in the player edit menu?

[ClevelandinDistress]

How were the steals? Did they happen cause you reached at the right time and made contact with the ball or were they random and animation based?

Thanks

I'd say CH 2k8 was the last game I really felt this, say if you played Boston College they played slow down and went inside alot, as opposed to Duke or NC who gave you a completely opposite challenge. I hope that question was clear enough

Kind of hard to tell. The first two games I saw and the first I played were player v. player. The only games I played against the CPU were the Legend games. The Boston/OKC game was against someone but he played off the ball defense so I was able to see how the CPU defense reacts.

The Celtics/Lakers legends game definetly had a slower pace to it and felt like a game from that era. My only disappointment was that I dont think the CPU went inside enough to Shaq when I played the Magic. Penny and Donald Royal took a good amount of shots.

One thing I forgot was Kevin Harlin's signature phrases are now in the game. I heard a "Right Between The Eyes" after nailing a Hubert Davis 3.

Right time. I actually had something occur that I hadnt seen in past games. In My Player, I was guarding my man tight but not reaching in. He turned into me, lost the ball and it lead to a steal even though I didnt press the steal button or attempt a reach in.

I had the same feeling from 2k11 from the post, but it could've been an anomaly since it was only one game. Hopefully there are some mixing it up type of games where you can't always execute your main gameplan so well because of how the user or the CPU adjusts

Thanks for the info
