5 things you can't wait to see/try out...etc. in 2k12

[bfrombleacher]

5 things...could be something trivial like slow walking the ball up the court or could be something much bigger.

1. AI opponents. Can't wait to grind it out against more lifelike opponents. In 2k11, difficulty = superhuman players. Sixth sense steals, inorganic shots that go in merely because of CPU calculations... Since there's so much praise about the AI, I totally cannot wait to actually try it out.

2. AI teammates. Goes without saying that my player teammates are dumb like a bag of bricks. Also, I would love to try the improved AI in normal games. Apparently they're there to help you more now, they run the break more intelligently and (from the Clippers/Celtics gameplay) seem to actually want to grab the damn rebound now. Since the Celtics aren't a big rebounding team, can't really tell if it's perfect but hopefully

3. Association mode. Specifically if it is better for playing multiple seasons. More specifically if the players improve too much and play too long. By year 4/5 I can build a championship team through the free agency...alone.

4. Association mode player moods. I have a lot of disgruntled players because the only thing they care about is their playing time. Winning a ring didn't seem to help their mood much.

5. Having the game tied at 90-90 and having the last possession with 5 seconds left on the clock. Do I go for the dagger 3? Maybe I'll take it to the hoop for the safe 2? Maybe I'll make the crowd go wild with an alley oop? Dang that inbound play system looks insane.

I could've easily listed more but I really should be studying right now .

POST GAME: I been mastering the post game since 2k on the PS2 days, I'm a lil upset they're just showing everyone everything about the post game because it used to take hard work to master it but its cool. More realism and online competition i guess.

ISO-MOTION: I'm ready to test out that Iso-motion, especially with the way we can chain em now. Watch out for the Tim Hardaway crossover, i already know its gonna be quick and explosive. Thats gonna be MyPlayer Sig crossover.

ONLINE ASSOCIATION: I play online 90% of the time, My player the other 10%. I had some good leagues last year and I'm hoping online asscoiation is a blast this year, the fact tht you can earn a lottery pick will hopefully discourage ppl with bad records from leaving the League. This will be fun for testing your GM, Coaching, and gameplay skills.
(I hope all the offline stategy options are online, playbooks etc.)

CREATE-A-SHOT: Hopefully i can get MyPlayer's shot looking as close to my real life shot as possible. And this will add alot of individuality to crew and pick up games.

CREW GAMES/ PICK UP GAMES: This was the most fun for me in 2k11, i'm hoping with the new changes to gameplay and grading system make this mode even more competitive and fun. My cousin from outta State and I would always play this with our MyPlayers (which were named after us of course). It was always fun and the team aspect is great.
