It's a very marginal difference, if there is one.

his jumper is more " button tap" in 2k13

Between the intro and the game, or the intro and the pre-game intros?

Because the pre-game intros were really kinda bleh.

A very marginal difference? The animations in the pre-game intros were needlessly slow and looked less polished visually.

The slow motion was an effect and was made to represent replayed highlights.
Reason they weren't that polished was because they were generated on the fly with the in game engine.

Pre-game highlights in real life aren't done in slow-motion like that for the most part. Like I said in the wishlist topic:

Oh I'm not saying they could be better, just saying I understand what they were doing.

Spot on. I didn't like it either. It shows me, that CPU will determine how the defender react to fakes and dribbles. It's just like in 2k13 when opponent do a hesitation move with then crossover and your players reacts even if you dont move him.

That fake pass fooled no one.

# 34 PJBrownHeat @ 08/27/13 04:34 AM

the new jerseys of phoenix could be a good representation of the 93 suns jerseys if they are not in classic team. what do you think?

+ i don't know where you see a fake pass lol

# 35 Gramps91 @ 08/27/13 08:11 AM

Lebron mode and Euro teams just another gimmick to try and sell games on platfor that has reached its ceiling. I'm waiting to see what Next-Gen has to offer, but since it is all about the money, they won't show anythign until well after the current-gen is released.

Definetly not. If EA was coming out for current gen and it looked like this people would be happy. Seeing how Live 13 and Elite looked and then suddenly it looked like this, people would be extatic.

I have the feeling that they put all their efforts into the next gen version, and came up with a 2k13 2.0 on current gen. All the big announcements are actually minor changes, even crew is something they put back in, not something really new.
The Kobe vid was nice, but feels like deja vu. I'm really waiting for some next gen action.

# 38 Goffs @ 08/27/13 10:38 AM

jeez you next gen people need to relax and stop cluttering the thread....the news for next gen will be released once they release the current one...

It still baffles me that people react to the graphics like its going to make a huge leap from last year. I would react that way if the next gen looked like 2k13 but not at the current gen. I mean that's just common sense....

# 39 mango_prom @ 08/27/13 11:23 AM

The Kobe animation itself looks great. But another question is if the defender is somehow forced to react in a certain way if controlled by a human or not. Notice how Bledsoe is walking towards Kobe leaving his defensive stance after the pass fake. Makes no sense whatsoever, and the stepback jumpshot would hardly be possible if Bledsoe stayed in a defensive position with his hands up contesting the shot. Hopefully there are no scripted reactions to certain offensive moves like we had in 2k13 triggered by the ankle breaker sig skill.

The best approach to me would be that defenders will react to the pass fake according to odds determined by defensive awareness, on ball defense and maybe tendencies like play passing lanes. But it definetely should be possible to simply not react at all in user vs. user, and the CPU should stay in defensive stance no matter which offensive animation is triggered.

I cannot spot the fake pass. I also was never that good at Where's Waldo.
