NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Jordan Shoes

[fcabanski]

I don't understand this feature. Having shoes that give ratings boosts seems more NBA Jam than NBA 2K11.

Not much new stuff, but still cool. The best thing is that we can edit shoe colors, because there are some AJ's that seem different than the ones MJ wore - because the colors arer a bit different. And I know many guys here like to have AJ's with crazy colors,

1. They did nothing to improve online play
2. They are now worried by cancellation of Elite and don't want to say they made all these changes yet can't back it up because of all the new people they will now have coming over from elite. Now they are scared to release the online insight that they said at one time they were going to release.

Hmmmmmmm...

This makes me nervous! I was looking forward to a online insight seeing this had to be #1 in the community complaints last year and every year for that matter!

Yeah, it's not much of a real world thing, but I guess they just wanted to make the shoes more significant, rather than just have them in the game.

They already said that they had rewritten the online code and have new servers, sure they need to test it once the game is released and there are TON of people online.

But why do people keep making assumption based on NOTHING? Reminds me of a month or 2 ago posts:

* "No word on My Player, so there's nothing new. Damn!"
* "Still no word about Association, probably the same **** as last year".

Etc. etc...

Hoping that this only affects My Player and not anything else but i Agree 100%. its somewhat of an awkward feature to have on a game that presents itself as a such a hardcore sim. Definitely not a dealbreaker though.

I would have probably preferred if you actually had to win the jordan Challenged to unlock the shoes

Well its already been said by ones who had the game there are no new Online FEATURES.....so what are we looking for in an online insight? That theyve improved it? Weve been told that as well. I dont see the point of a Insight...im more concerned about actually seeing if its has actually improved.
