NBA 2K13 Preview - Improving Collisions (ESPN)

[Vni]

Flaws? You haven't even seen the video yourself.

I don't even get what we're arguing here.

Although one thing I didn't like to read in the preview is the faster player movements. I already had noticed it in the gameplay video at E3, and I really don't like that.

Have you even played the game?

I see nothing to be critical of in June. That is my opinion they can't please everyone that is sure

Don't act like 2K doesn't insert two-player animations that make no sense. If being against that makes me unreasonable or whatever, then so be it.

Yeah, because I have to see a video to understand what it means for two players to collide and crash to the floor. Can't be serious.

But I think we’ve achieved this, and we’ve achieved it in spades. We really feel like the gameplay experience has jumped significantly from ‘2K12’ to '2K13,’ and that’s what we’re most excited about.” And because the 2K engineers were able to deliver the “NBA” engine far ahead of schedule this year, the game’s production team started gameplay sessions earlier than normal, enabling them to start tuning and tweaking. - Looking forward to seeing what gameplay improvements there have been.

It sounds very promising.

I strongly disagree with this statement, 2K12 was a step down from 2K11 in terms of overall gameplay.

Great, another reason for them to make the game more arcady for newbies.....

"I think we're going to deliver a game that's more casual, but deeper all at the same time," said Jones. "A casual guy will be able to do everything in our game and enjoy it and think that's he's cool,


I dont even want to think about how bad this will be if true, complexity is what makes 2k what it is and making simplistic is just catering to cheeseheads

Lol I have to agree with you guys here. 2K12 is already to "newb-friendly". I think the difficulty is fine where it is. The last thing we need is for 8 year olds to be pulling off the same moves as seasoned 2K vets.

Anybody else excited for the All-Star Weekend in My Player by chance?
