You just completely ignored what I said. Lets try again. REGARDLESS OF GAME SETTING. I didn't claim to know how the game will play. I simply stated what I liked and didnt like BASED ON THE VIDEO.

I actually want to hear what they have to say....why do they stop halfway through and dont even mention what they were going to say....come on it actually angers me sometimes..... This was one of the issues that several people were asking to get fixed since 2k10....and it looks like you guys havnt fixed it.... Anyways good job overall though...

uh...time to put down the controller and go outside...plus its just a game trying to mimic whats being broadcast during a live game...i can only agree with having the convo getting picked up where they left of again after a big dunk or play....

add it to the wishlist for next year...if it doesnt get fixed then its time to take some happy pills while playing a game...

because it's their job to tell people what is going on on the the court so if they are just taking about some random facts and something happens on the court their suppose to stop what they are saying and tell the world, have you never watched a NBA game on TV before as long as they pick up where they left off there is no real problem, I hope they do address the third reports so never finished her statement.

well then i guess pro/casual isnt for you. . .

because many people like the way 2k10 played with no slider edits ( not i) so to me it makes sense for the game to play as it does in the video.

48 days isn't a lot of time, the games are usually done at least 3 weeks ahead of time, then they ship it to the stores so in essence they have about 2-3 weeks left of tuning, which I believe will be for bugs and other glitches.

I've seen games "leaked sometimes well over a month in advance".

I wouldn't put much stock into that demo myself as it didn't show off much of anything. It seems a bit "up tempo" from 2k10 but didn't see the interactions with the players that they said would be there.

If that was Human vs CPU then that's not good hopefully it was human versus human just playing inside ball.

I never worry about 2k basketball even though they jerked us around a bit for 2 months fixing the game, and many had to make a new association I believe this will be playable right out of the box. *Fingers crossed*

im really curious on how the playcalling system is implemented....too bad the demo didnt have the system up...

I thought I clearly addressed your comment, 2k released a statement about how certain setting would affect the gameplay so I don't know where your confusion comes from, this is the first video where you can clearly see this in play the video was set to a level and difficult that most of us would not enjoy playing and allowed alot of unrealistic gameplay, but they informed us ahead of time that was going to happen.

I agree with you. I guess they didn't want to be saying something and then have a monster event happen that they just totally ignore. Frankly, I think the commentary is TOO chatty. They're always saying something, never giving itself a chance to react to big moments. So, which is best - acknowledge the big moment or just keep babbling. It's clearly a design decision they're comfortable with and it won't change until enough people complain about it. But, I guess most people feel there are bigger fish to fry for now...
