Back on topic, I liked what I saw for the most part and I'm excited to get my hands on it this friday. I do still have my gripes but being able to see the game in motion for an extended period of time was very nice.

It was a generalization. I'm a part of both communities and that's the difference between the two in my eyes. Try to have some substance in your posts. I already have a mother and this forum doesn't need anymore hall monitors...thanks

Apparently no one is willing to comment on this, so I will give a try. Every gameplay video I have saw until today is making me question my decision to pre-order this game. Is really aggravating watching a gameplay video from the developers of arguably the most sim sports game out there ("this is not a game" right?) and they just played the game with no regards of any basketball fundamentals at all. The guy playing the Timberwolves was a bit better finding the open shots because the other guy just continually pull every player off their assignment to double team and spam the steal button.

They have to really consider giving the game to the sim community and ask them to release videos in anticipation to the public release date because this was a complete BS, Madden handle this a lot better.

Way too much thread hijacking in this thread. Can a mod just open a thread for guys who wanna call others idiots, the people who don't want the game and the not impressed. Came here to see what people saw in the stream.

Basically every thread we now know that in their opinion, the games not improved. Your just an idiot for being excited cause the devs are lazy and the game same as last year. They ****ed up the bodies so basically it's unplayable when they can easily patch it.

Back on topic though, those new defensive/offensive settings got me excited. Can't wait to test the ace packages that are replacing POE.

Now that I've had a chance to see the first 3 quarters of the first game, I do like how the game rewards smarter play.

LD2K played a lot of hero iso ball on offense, and didn't use the ACE tools at his disposal to help him. On defense, he did a lot of double teaming just chasing the ball handler and in the process breaking down his own defense. Meanwhile, you see Ronnie using the game play adjustment and strategy quick menus a lot more, making adjustments. He didn't really run plays but he did play smarter ball using the ACE tools the game gives him. As a result, he kicked butt.

What LD2K did would have worked much better last year. True, LD2K was using a terrible team and was also taking more time to try to talk about the game and show features, limiting his ability to pay attention to just competing. I'm not saying he does not know how to play smarter ball, just saying that in this stream he didn't and that the game was not forgiving.

As far as game play goes, that's a step in the right direction for the whole franchise.

Boy, the screams and tears of the casuals will be deafening this year. Dear God, give Beluba strength to resist!

Everybody knows they can easily patch it in the question is will they do it if we had confirmation that it would be apart of a patch then a lot of complaints would go away but that issue hasn't been addressed

I've played countless hours of NBA 2K and I never saw animations and movement like NBA 2k17 shows. I would always notice obvious hitches when an animation would be triggered in previous games, and it always felt like I was just moving from one animation to another to another. 2k17 looks like it has removed these hitches and drastic changes in movement, instead providing subtle animation triggers and transitions. I like it. That does NOT mean I think the game will play perfectly. Hell, I'm a slider guru, and I know I'll have a LOT of tweaking to do to get it to play as realistic as it LOOKS.

There's nothing in that vid that resemble authentic NBA basketball if u know basketball. And maybe that's why some if you think it plays smooth. Lol, NBA players don't play like that dude. The game looked/played like a park street pick-up game with guys in NBA player models. Professional basketball simply doesn't look like that. Just my observation, hopefully when I get the game the game plays better and maybe it was just the ppl on the sticks. But ppl saying it looks smoother and amazing is just not accurate.

because it's two people playing a basletball video game...that hasn't changed...you're not watching an NBA broadcast.

Whats the point of you coming in hete telling people their opinions are wrong? Its silly. You dont need to validate your opinion by doing that.
