2k11, I'm Coming Home!

[tcain80]

Yep, NBA 2k12 was a nice distraction, the game had a lot of cool improvements, but I just value gameplay balance above all else. So, with that in mind, I'm ditching 2k12 and going back to 2k11. I played them both back to back today, and though I love the animations and smoothness of 2k12, the overall experience in 2k11 was so much better. My teammates were actually helping, fouls weren't called anytime the cpu got in the lane, you could pass on fast breaks, I wasn't scoring 35 points a quarter....it was great.

So am I alone on this? Has anybody moved, or been thinking of moving back to 2k11 for their videogames hoops fix?

Ummm 2K11 with my Knicks on Super Star I averaged 120 with the knicks

2K12 same sliders and I am lucky to hit 105 from time to time

There is nothing that 2k11 does better on the court then 2k12

Jumping for a block in front of the player was easy since you could jump 2 times while he was in the air. In 2K you are punished for leaving your feet like you should

I thought last year was great sim but not anymore after this year

Hop step cheese...Gone

As long as you have fun.

Wow, glad the game is working out that way or you. For me, I have to work NOT to score on offense, and heck even if I do get in any sort of trouble, I can just hoist a three and watch it go in 9/10 times. Still, with all the awesome new additions, I wish I was having your experience.

I've called it quits on 2K12 after getting bumped and held too much (see my post http://www.operationsports.com/forum...g-holding.html)

I think I'll go back to 2K11. Normally, I'd suffer without a good sports game until next year, but I've found that despite the bad responsiveness with the controls in 2K11, I've enjoyed it longer than most sports games. I'll probably play a few games here and there, but really just be deprived of a good sports game until next year when I have to cross my fingers again and hope 2K or EA haven't once again made a great game with one great flaw.
