I am not going with 10/100, that was thrown out by the poster above. I just tagged along with it.

5-6 times per NBA season means what? After how many crossovers done and it happens only 5-6 times? That is a pretty low percentage man.

To put an end to this, I know how video games are. I know how 2K is when it comes to catering to casuals. I think you all would be crazy to think this will be implemented properly and with good taste given their track record.

Well considering LeBron stats are close to triple double status I don't think it's a stretch. The wrong people will abuse any videogame. That's why you avoid those people. However if the purpose of sigs is to add intangibles to players so they play more like their real life counterparts then there's no way a cap of 5 will be sufficient to truly represent how multi fascist guys like James, Wade, Paul, Duncan, Love, etc. Especially the players who are excellent two way players.

We'll see.

They have already showed signs of restriction to casuals by putting a stamina cap on "Posterizer". Would you not say that is a good sign ?

There always have been and always will be arcadey aspects to the game. Who really cares if players drop 2% more in the game than in real life?

We gotta chill a little bit.

Yea sure, that is a good sign, but then again knowing how 2K never properly implements fatigue I don't know how much of a good thing this really is.

It is a good chance that in a 5 min online game players never get under 80% fatigue so yea.......

I think everybody is getting hung up on the words "defensive falls" like it's the only possible outcome of the ankle breaker skill.

Good God man.

How many times do we see someone get dropped in a year?



How many times was that? About 10-12?

How many times do we see someone simply go in the other direction from a crossover and unable to get back in the play just in a regular game?
