The pace of the game doesn’t feel hurried. It instead feels smoother and carries more of the symmetry that you see from NBA-level athletes. The speed thresholds are still proper and realistic, but every player felt quicker.

If true, THANK GOD. Along with passing, the sluggishness of the players (quickness, mind you, not necessarily straight line speed....think explosiveness) was one of my biggest gripes about recent 2K offerings. Everyone felt sluggish out of the gate, then garnered speed at an unrealistic rate. Hopefully I can feel/see that improvement as well. Any change in that area (locomotion) is a huge plus IMO.

Great write up FP is definitely reliable

Glad to hear that things are faster in 2k17. The slow execution in 2k16 was something that killed the realism for me a little bit. Sam Pham will be happy about that too.

This indeed seems to confirm the claims that 2k17 is much smoother. Can't wait.

Idk they look to move the same as always from gameplay videos. Saw anything but explosiveness in movements (my pet peeve as well)

That was a nice read. I like FP - he's one of the few I will stop to read and believe each word afterwards.

Dunno how body models have slithered their way into this thread..... bless you guys
