Come to think of it, I could pop in NBA2k11 and wont even miss 2k12...

Lack of association upgrades isnt helping..

2k11
++Modes and features
++cpu AI was better imo
++ONLINE was more stable
- to many pre determine animations (spin & post spin dunk) (euro step) bunny hop under basket

2k12
++less cheese or unstoppable tactics online like 2k11
++fluid animations
++can pretty much contain cheese this year with skill
- less modes and features (no online lobbies)
- no leagues or tournaments
-this is by far the most boring offline association yet (maybe because it was copied and paced since 2k10)
-no classic online friend play
-online association is bar bone
-my player is not great to me this year


The good outweighed the bad in 2k11. 2k12 there's a really thin line between good and bad

AND THERE'S DEFENSE IN THIS GAME YOU JUST HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO PLAY IT...

IMO THIS GAME IS ALL ABOUT DEFENSE & RREBOUNDING WITH OUT IT YOU JUST WONT WIN ONLINE OR OFFLINE

2K11 is a great game, but the playbook depth alone in 2K12 is the reason why I can't go back to it.

Agreed...whenever I play 2k11 I just end up free flowing my way to victory. In 2k12 I just love calling plays and it makes it more fun for me.

Its funny, I've been saying 2k11 was better all year, and it still may edge out this years game in areas....but when I popped it in, I missed 2k12 lol....I didn't realize until now how annoying 2k11s bumping was....

2k12 really did make a lot of improvements that are hard to see because of some glaring flaws...but now that I've found the right settings I really am enjoying it..

I still play my fantasy franchise on 2k11 for ps3 pretty often. I do play play 2k12 on pc though, I dont know why but the pc version of 2k12 just seems to much a better game of basketball than the ps3 version even without patches.

I guess my point is I enjoy both, but I can see why folks are stil playing 2k11

I traded my nba 2k12 for deus ex human revolution and picked back up nba 2k11 in a buy 2 get 1 free sale. The reason for me is online.

The online association in 2k12 just became frustrating with no admin options and timer rundown. Then there are no lobbies in 2k12 where in 2k11 you could play a non ranked match and have more teams being selected with games being less played like its the end of the world if you dont win.

Single player vs cpu in 2k12 became non existent because of the issues of cpu boosting and holding shots untill the shot clock was about to expire. This is where human vs human became important to me. But the online structure was poorly constructed in 2k12 which lead to me trading it away. I felt a sense of relief when i no longer had the game.
