NBA 2K10 Q&A

05:33 PM - August 24, 2009 by 23

Operation Sports, Senior Editor, Chase Becotte has just posted his NBA 2K10 Q&A.

Quote:


	"All right, so instead of re-listing all the questions from the other thread and then answering them here, I'm just going to try and answer as many of those questions as possible as I pepper through these various portions of the game. Obviously you can ask more questions, and I can try to answer them as well. You should also know that I played four matchups, all against other human players -- three against my OS cohort Rich Chavez, and one against 2K developer Rob Jones. I was at the studio from like 10-5 (minus one hour for lunch) so I got time to be walked through pretty much every aspect of the game before playing at the end of the day. -The matchups were Spurs vs. Suns (me) on Christmas Day -- this was just a feature for the demo, you won't have access to last year's game via NBA Today. The developers want NBA Today to be, well, all about today in the NBA. The other matchups were Jazz (me) at Portland, OKC at New York (me) and Atlanta at Golden State (me)."

I think chase will let the questions build before answering them.

Is Movement improved?
If i flick up on the left stick will it go into an animation, or will he take a step forward?

Is your Caps Lock key working? I'm not sure if it is.

AWESOME write-up! Possibly one of the BEST ones I've seen in my years here at O.S.!!! Nice job!

1. I really hope they get the "ref-bounce-pass-at-the-freethrow-line" there by release!!!!

2. "Right between the eyes" doesn't make it in, because it is a reference of vulgarity? That's absurd!!! That's his "coined phrase"!! Then, why does TNT even allow him to say it on the air...that's crazzzy!

3. I would LOVE to hear more about the presentation!!!!! You said we would be very impressed this year....give me more examples!

# 50 stizz @ 08/24/09 07:10 PM

Wow...what a write up. I was so certain I was going to get Live this year. This just made my decision so much harder.

# 51 AI3 @ 08/24/09 07:17 PM

im glad about headband colours. Finally.
Also 50-60 hairstyles and tattoos. awsome

# 52 Sinner @ 08/24/09 07:20 PM

Great write up Chase, thanks love the info and cant wait for this game to come out.

# 53 mefman @ 08/24/09 07:21 PM

DUH!MY CAPS IS WORKING BUT ANY WAY SO DOES THATMEAN THE NUGGETS WILL HAVE YELLOW HEADBANDS?O AN WAT ABOUT CALF SLEEVES DO THEY STILL LOOK LIKE LONG BLACK SOCKS?

# 54 jr2424 @ 08/24/09 07:22 PM

Love the My Player stuff. I hope 2k fixed their online (which Chase says they changed the servers). Can't believe Chase said that D-Howard looks better in 2k than in Live. That's amazing cause I think Live has their player models perfect. I AM SO HYPED RIGHT NOW

Turn your caps off and type like a human being.

# 56 jr2424 @ 08/24/09 07:25 PM

Forgot to say: Amazing job Chase. I've read that preview three times and I still can't get over what a detailed job you did. Makes the other sites previews look like crap. Great work.

# 57 SageInfinite @ 08/24/09 07:25 PM

The write up is great. Can't wait to see this game in motion

. All I need to hear about is the cpu play and I will be great. The presentation and the gameplay tweaks sound amazing.

I do think this ties into the fact that less turbo is being used, and also the fact that the game pace has been slowed down a pinch, and because there is more focus on giving the players weight and having each step mean something. There are still cases where your guy won't plant his foot (aka ice skating), but I saw these instances less and less. It seemed like when the ice skating happened, it would occur while mashing on the turbo button when dribbling with the ball. 2K is saying they are still tuning this aspect and are trying to improve it further before launch.

-New dribble movement model for when you first begin dribbling inside -- you go slower, can't accelerate as quickly and are more aware of protecting the ball.

Reposted this since it appeared you may have missed it. Hope it eases your mind somewhat.

Dont be mean to me MOMETMOUS CELTIC!

# 60 �roke @ 08/24/09 07:28 PM

I don't know how can you have questions lol. There's so much info in that post... It's ridiculous. Thanks Chase.

Anyway, i'm with DC, can we assign just one or two dunks to a player?

P.S. The whole edit mode is amazing. I will be more time editing my roster than playing the game
