NBA 2K11 Gameplay Video: Denver Nuggets vs. Orlando Magic

Threads like this are hilarious. All the people pointing out the bad things and NEVER the good things. I saw so many improvements in this video that I barely noticed the bad.

Yeah, Ronnie didn't know so he shouldn't have posted it confusing guys like me. What's the point of posting a video..ehhh..nevermind

Yeah, that is something that carried over from 2K10, and it looks completely out of place. Especially when looking at the non-ball handlers movement, and seeing how realistic their movements are; it looks like the ball handler is moving at a completely different speed when they're bringing the ball up.

On to some brief impressions. The broadcast team sounds stellar, and it sounds like their actually calling a game with one another while being in the same arena, and this isn't even NBA Today stuff that we're talking about. I was really feeling the entire vibe from everything involving presentation; they just continue to push for authenticity and realism in that respect. The off-the-ball movement looks very good, and I hope that that same movement and urgency translate into plays when they're called. One neat thing that I noticed is how the players on the bench sometimes get up in anticipation of a dunk, or a 3 pointer; nice subtle touch.

The main thing that I didn't like about this video is the sporadic ballhandling, and in that sense, it did look similar to 2K10 with some of the hitches after a dribbling move is attempted (same with the footage from Gamescom). Didn't see many dribbling moves chained together, but instead a couple attempts at singular crossover moves, which the defenders had very little reaction to as they were in their defensive stances. I did like the bit of size up dribble that Nelson did as he seen a big on him, but I want to see someone playing who really has a handle on the controls because I don't really expect the CPU to show all the moves possible, and Ronnie2k obviously hasn't achieved the new isomotion.

Other than that, I thought the video was a respectable showing at this point.

Animations look stellar. Models look great.

The commentary is still pretty bad though. They still have those incredibly cheesy and forced lines.

The improvements have already been acknowledged when GC vids dropped. Some guys just think that this vid is worse than the GC ones in generall quality and polish, myself included.

C'mon guys, use your brain. It is obvious that the Heat/Mavs is a later build. Do you really believe that a company would go from more polished to less polished? Sheesh.

MAN i wish i could say what i wanted without being banned becasue some people on this site are so idiotic. The game doesn't look like 2K10, it's way smoother, better animations, textures, colors, commentary, sounds and player models. Old or new build the game still looks very very good.
