NBA 2K11: New Alley-Oop Controls, Jordan Challenge=8 Mins and NBA-Approved Hard Fouls

[ClutchCity]

I know it is very unfortunate to play 8 min. a quarter for hardcore basketball sim fans in the Jordan Challenge mode. But its a Challenge and that's why I think the developers decided to set this amount of time for 2kgamers. I think the alley-opp button changing wasn't a major concern to me, but the fact that you can play with retro teams is what got me anxious to play. Aww man this may be the greatest basketball game ever released.

If there are any license problems with players from classic teams, 2k just needs to make generic players with no resemblance at all with those players, not even positions, height or anything ... but "totally" editable (profile, name, ratings, everything) so we can create the correct ones by our own.

As we have read, they couldnt get "all" the players that were on those teams and as we have already seen in the videos, 2k did add some generic players to fill those spots.

So its more a matter of determination than a matter of a legal restriction. Please 2k bring us those ´93 Suns.

Pandoras box has been opened and having official classic teams will entice the creation of more of them and to undoubtly help and please the users to achieve that, please give us the tools we need, like:

- We need expanded team uniforms and logos customization as NHL 2k or/and
- Please let us assign "any" of the existing jerseys to created teams ... let us have a created team use a retro bulls jersey for example (if the jersey is in the game, let us have it).
- Also, let us make custom jerseys on a basic and easy level: just let us put and reflect the name of the team in the jerseys and choose the unis colors ... even if it is a generic jersey design ... that, apart from an expanded predetermine list of logo options. I mean, if we do custom jerseys we cant have logos and viceversa ... ideally, we would have both, but that would require to invest more time and resources.
- Let us pick one of the existing cities as hometown, let the announcer pronounce that city name in replace of the team name (as I know it would be difficult to have a prerecorded list of imaginary names for teams).
- We need a huge base of names to be pronounced in the game if assigned to a created or modified player.

They had to have learned from last year with My player so I'd assume that you can change the number of minutes per quater. I just hope you can change the difficulty and sliders aswell.

That would of been awesome if somehow they would of got the 93 Suns in the game. They had some great players on that squad. I would of loved to play with KJ, Richard Dumas, Thunder Dan and most importantly Charles Barkley.

Despite the Suns not making it in the game, this mode is still going to be a blast!!!!

"There are NBA-approved hard fouls in the game. No fighting, but players will get dragged down as the defender tries to prevent you from getting your shot off."

My favorite quote from the article. I can't wait to knock cheesers who try to dunk all game to the hardwood.

Man I'm looking forward to trying to beat Jordan challenges in the game. It is going be tough and it will take a while I tell you that much. But can't wait to do it.
