NBA 2K13: Prospective Signature Skills

[ForeverVersatile]

How about we wait until they tell us and not play make believe. People will get confused and think these are in minus what we already know are in.

i know this has nothing to do with this thread but its just a thought since they got Beasly looking right and Chris Paul looking better than before (still not perfect) but i wonder if they fixed NeNe and Kennith Faried's hair this time..

"Double Down: Player tandems like Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan were absolutely lethal when trapping the ballhandler near the halfcourt line, but in the NBA2K series, the best you can reasonably hope for is a jump ball. With this skill, the player’s participation in double teams will be extra effective, resulting in more steals and forcing more bad passes that become turnovers."

Scottie with the Bulls!!

"Power Dunker: Dunks by players like Dominique Wilkins and Shawn Kemp have sometimes been felt to be worth more than just the two points that went up on the scoreboard for the way they could demoralize an opposing team through sheer force. A skill like this applied to Blake Griffin would provide a slight hit to the opposing team’s Defensive Awareness or other ratings for a few plays to give a little more impact to truly stupendous throwdowns"

classic teams Atlanta Hawks and Seattle Supersonics

Are signature skills any different from tendencies? Will certain animations be tied to signature skills? For example, I hope a defensive anchor doesnt boost his team's defense too much. Offensively, I'd like to be able to still take advantage of mismatches without poor fatigued defenders getting artificial boosts.

30+ thats alot

I wonder if when the rosters are updated that these skills will be updated, like if next season say someone gets better at somethhing will they earn a skill for it or lose 1 if they get worse?

My problem with this is you can't just limit some guys like D Rose and Bron to just 5 out of 30+

Yeah that would be annoying, but I doubt 2K would do that. If so it would be fixed.

Im sure they will, they are pretty accurate, though ther's always guys that seem to be overrated and underrated

I think it depends on the skills. We have to see what the complete list of Sig Skills are. We dont know if players can lose sig skills.

I dont if a Lockdown defender with 85 On-Ball D is better than 99 On-Ball Defender without Lockdown skill.
