NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Association

[jordankobewade7]

The only thing missing are new banners hanging from the rafters after every championship we've won...I want the association to recognize my accomplishments in a tangible way.if I was racking up championships and the banners kept being added then I wouldn't ever stop till the rafters were full,no joke.even after kobe retires and goes to the hall,gasol too!

There's no way I'm the only one who wouldn't flip if this was added...and its not that what they've added isn't great,its the best yet,but add this and id be hard pressed to think of much more you can do to make improvements besides detailing/polishing existing modes..

Anyone agree?

If these issues aren't fixed the only reason I'll play association OS to familiarize myself with my OS Vets Rockets team. I hope these things are fixed, but as excited as I am for My Player, online league and the Jordan stuff, I have to mention that the offline game AI has been on a slolam since 2k8.

Isn't that stuff more gameplay related than Association related?

Banners yeahh that would be great if u won a championship and the next year u would. C the banner and the ring ceremony

I'm kinda disappointed because we still dont have a CPU thats scouts us and presents unique gameplans. The major problem is that every game feels like an Exhibition game. I could care less about the trade stuff because I make all the changes to mimic the real NBA myself.

If you simulate every game it doesn't affect you. Otherwise this aspect of the gameplay is the core of the association experience: offline five on five. I'm bringing it up before we even start the reattach that is the first patch list
