An example at 2.35 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ladhW0v580 So for me it is unplayable.

These are my biggest pet peeves with the game as well. 2K can't seem to nail foot planting. Players are constantly sliding into position when receiving passes which is a huge eyesore. And then they still don't respect ball physics. I've beaten this horse to death but the ball needs to be tangible at all times! If I dribble the ball into a part of a players body, the ball should be knocked loose. The ball should not be able to go through someones body. That kills competiton when this stuff can randomly happen at any give moment. Instead 2K makes the ball partially tangible because they're scared that people will complain about too many turnovers. I think that is a BS way to go about it. If anything, they should have a Simulation mode (not sliders but an actual game mode ala NHL) in the game where everything is respected & you have to know basketball. That way they don't have to try to cater to both Sim & Arcade crowds. If 2K could just fix these two issues the game would be great, but until they do I can't even take the game serious.

They aren't playing around with the bans around here... This guy had been here for 13 years too, wow...


I understand what you were saying, but you could have said it differently.

I had to turn off because I kept getting interested in what Scott was saying only for the 2 guys to cut him off. I feel like I learned nothing from this. It was so distracting from watching the actual gameplay. Moreso Ronnie in all honesty. "Oh that was a bad shot" "Oh I meant to pumpfake" "Aaahhhehrb" Just making noise constantly and Scott keeps having to stop his conversation and by the time he goes to resume another conversation has started. I wouldn't have minded LD2K and Ronnie taking if it was just a gameplay video. That's fine, I'll sit here and listen to the banter. But when you have a guy sitting there trying to tell us about the game were about to invest money in and you keep cutting him off to make casual random comments you need to just keep quiet! [/RANT]

What a constructive thread this turned out to be.
