NBA 2K11 Preview (Joystiq)

08:22 PM - June 25, 2010 by wrestlinggod1

Joystiq has posted their NBA 2K11 preview.

Quote:


	"The realism of the presentation was given more weight thanks to the new player models, animations and the completely rewritten dribbling engine that provides 1:1 ball-handling via the right analog stick. This year, players have a more defined look -- smaller guys look the way they should and all of the players don't have the bulky shoulders of previous years' releases. In addition, with the changes to the way the ball is handled, 2K is promising more dynamic action and less in the way of canned animations -- there's even an in-air collision system now."

Thats why I want it on the right stick. In 2k8 every move was a uniform crossover.

Can't you use the right stick on 2k10 as an alternative? I don't see them taking away that ability for 2k11 atleast as an option.

Based on units sold NBA Live 2007 is better than NBA 2k7.

My point was that if the controls are on the left sticks and they don't use triggers every time you change directions its a crossover. Supposedly 2k11 wont use the triggers for crossovers.

Weird since 2k7 has the best gameplay control of any next gen BBall game.

Nothing weird about EA outselling a better product.

Ch2k8 had the same control accuracy with foot planting.

They wanted to revamp the dribbling before Mike came back. There was an article on their first meeting after 2k10 was released and their biggest issue was control and dribbling.

You guys report this stuff instead of responding to it

Care to elaborate?

I could have sworn I heard in a video interview that dribbling controls were still on the left stick.

For me, Joystiq just lost its reliability right now.
