Thanks again Pared

The backdown works, but it's not as natural as you would hope for. There will be times where you may be trying to back down and for a moment, they won't initiate the back down.

If you go into practice mode, you can iron out some post moves and get a feel for the game. It's solid, but it's very similar to Live so at one end it's easier to perform moves out of the post, on the other hand occasionally it can lead to frustration.

I don't know if Pared or MC is, but TD is working on some event coverage and some game play footage that will be going up either tomorrow or Monday.

I was playing with the Celtics a bit we have it on video. I could record some more from my Flip cam aimed at my TV but I don't know how high quality it would be for you all.

Can anyone confirm if the short calf sleeve glitch is fixed?

It's there but not on the same level as it was last year. Last year you had 3 distances you could lock into from the ball handler. This year, it's just like how well you can the defend the guy on your own and it helps you out a bit.

There is an A,B, and C control scheme. They just change the turbo, hopstep, and shot sticks up a bit. I'm not sure if you can customize. I looked because I wanted to switch the ISO triggers back to last year and I couldn't figure it out.

I wouldn't mind. I think most people just wanna see the game in action to help tide us over. I'm sure the questions ought to be answered well enough as the last full week before release starts and maybe thats when we'll actually see a commercial or something. But if you didn't mind filming a game I think plenty of people would be very grateful. You're call ultimately of course.

Wow...come back and this thread is 80 pages...wow.


My Question:

How is the player progression in association work?

Hey just noticed for a couple of gameplay vids i've seen that, the CPU PG does not walk up the court with the ball and direct the offense after a made basket by the user anymore?

Did they eliminate this movement or am I missing something here?

In 2K9 they had it, but so far in the vids i've seen for 2K10, the PG doesn't walk up the court anymore to set up the offense.
