agreed, the force field thing was one of the most frustrating things. Can't tell you how many times i got called for backcourt violations because of that stupid stumble back animation when you bump into someone.

Great read. A whole new strategy will be created.

Looks like Da Czar is using Fast Draw.

That is the other side of the coin for sure. Are you talking about step backs to three and out of bounds ILL ? Or hop steps where your moving forward ? Do you have some video of that ?

What I saw was mostly me trying a step back right next to the baseline. In real life I would have never tried it but I forgot I didn't have that extra protection.

The hard bumpback animation either doesn't play or only plays when you run directly into the defenses chest. There are so many different animations I am not sure were talking about the same one's when it comes to step backs.

I would encourage you to see how it feels during the demo and provide feedback if it seems unplayable.

Sounds awesome. Great read as always from Da Czar.

I think it shows more realism now then it did 2k11. I'm pretty sure they have implanted player mechanics to where players know where to put there feet.

I can see this making a big, big difference. I love these little details.

lets hope it doesn't affect corner threes
