More 2K Bs..

[ForeverVersatile]

Has anyone ever been sucked into or away from a Ball handler so they can get past/around the defender?? Well i have and 2K made it like that on purpose. That's why players Like Chris Paul can turbo from the inbounds pass all the way to the basket without begin touched.

I know what you mean. Like Lebron in a dunk animation and the person he's dunking on is sliding backwards with no collision animation.

sssshhhhh, dont tell anyone, this is the GOAT (game of all time) as people say.......
pfffffftttt.

agree 100%, happens non stop

Yeah, that's especially bad online...it's absurd. A player like, let's say, Melo has the ball. If you guard him too closely he'll dribble right past you to the basket, But, if you back off AT ALL he'll just rise up and knock down any jumper. It KILLS me.

Yeah, because shooting is cheese in this game and it's even worse online because the difficulty is on Pro by default. So that only obviously makes things worse. But to add insult to injury...you can't (literally) play defense on this game. So there's no way to compensate for this.

Melo is indeed a problem, although he was superhuman in 2K11 with his bump shots which were automatic. When ever I've played the Knicks online with the Celtics, I can NEVER seem to match up well. Pierce is usually on him, but then when he just blows past Pierce, I try to put Bradley on him, but Bradley gives up 6 inches in the post to Melo, so then I have to put Courtney Lee on him. In a quick ranked game, it's probably best to start Bradley or Terry at PG and then have Lee come in as 6th man. Maybe try Jeff Green as well. When all the back court Knicks can shoot, Rondo is just a liability.

I think with people who know what they're doing, Melo is better than LeBron, although I'm sure 2K has overrated his 3. Talking of ratings, I dunno if Delonte West was injured for most of the year or something, but his dunk rating is 48. Ridiculous, you can't dunk with him at all. This is a guy who wasn't afraid to DUNK ON the Miami Heat a few years ago(albeit he blew the dunk).

I agree wholeheartedly...I cannot tell you how infuriated I was at this game last night because of his superhuman abilities. 2K's lucky the good far outweighs the bad, because the bad can be mindnumbing sometimes.

I was Washington, playing some guy who was the Knicks. With a minute or so to go in the 4th quarter I was up 4. The score was 45-41, and I had played a well-balanced game, distributing to all my scorers, and playing clutch defense. Then, the last minute of the fourth rolls around, and Melo's unholy cocktail of signature skills kicks in, and I never had a chance. He starts running down the court and popping J's right in Wall, Crawford, and even Nene's face and hitting every single one of them (because he's a deadeye, a closer, and clutch!!).

I manage to keep the lead, until I have possession with about 28 seconds to go, up 1. OF COURSE 2K decides that John Wall needs to have the ball ripped from his hand by Shumpert for no apparent reason while I'm dribbling the clock out around the perimeter. I get back on D, knowing EXACTLY what the guys going to do...put a TRIPLE TEAM on Melo, user-control one of the defenders and put a body on him. I KNOW I got contact because the controller vibrated hard, but still swish...I lose by a point.

I cannot emphasize enough how stupid of an addition to the 2K franchise signature skills was...it's nice in principle but in practice it just serves to stupidly overpower certain players in certain situations (who else is eagerly anticipating the addition of deadeye Mr. Jeremy Lamb to an already stacked OKC roster?).

That's Melo.

He has interviews saying if you play close on him he'll blow right by you. If you back off and give him space, he'll pop the jumper.

Shooting is cheese in this game? And you can't play defense in this game?
Those 2 comments right there just stripped you of all chances of me respecting or acknowledging any of your post 2K related.

Shooting and defense is just fine.

So Carmelo Anthony is suppose to be stopped in the 4th quarter by John Wall, Jamal Crawford and Nene(who's a missmatch on the perimeter for Melo?

Come on son get real.
