Yeah it sucks, but it seems like their hands were tied with that one. I can only hope Scottie has a change of heart before launch.

They did, there are manual bounce passes this year.

No, there is no pressure sensitive passing in the game this year.

I ioved the introductions in the old 2k. Like 2k1. When the game would start you would see the players being introduced. They need to bring that back. Now when you join the game the announcements have already happened.

He was wrong. I asked devs after seeing this tweet and they said no, czar said it must have been placebo and that it was discussed last year so he thought it was in.

I miss that too! If you don't want to watch it x thru it. This used to get me and my bro all fired up!!! I'd love to see that come back!

That sucks to hear about the rebounding. Was a major issue with 2k12.

Signature skills are still a Con to me. There's no upside to binary skills when they replace more comprehensive tendencies or ratings. A handful of the skills are indeed Pros, but that doesn't outweigh the negative impact of the other 15-20 skills. The real impact will be felt using default rosters, which I'm assuming will be the standard for Online play.
