Am I the only one that noticed MJ's half calf sleeve... With no disappearing sock!

Mike Wang said we'd be able to give it to our own player, so does this mean it'll be available for everyone? And if so will we be able to change both of the colors of it (the little red bit at the top and the whole black part)? This way we could finally have the proper half calf sleeve with no glitch.

Also, if they can program the game to have MJ's half calf sleeve without the glitch surely they can just use the same code for the standard one but without the band at the top?

Yeah, it does look like the Denver/Magic game, but just Bulls/Blazers.

that behind the board replay was a thing of beauty

All of the current "Where Amazing Happens" and other ads are awkward for this period, as well.
yes shorts for that era is still too long and that really kills the authenticity... they need to be medium length.

i wish we could get someone to go in on saturday and fix it or at least give us the option to adjust shorts length eg. short (bad boy pistons style), medium of the 90's and the long baggy ones of today.

Wow!!!! This game is going to be sick. I really enjoyed that video. But all the users playing in these demos seem to really suck at knowing when to throw a pass. This is why I prefer the 2k cam. Anyway... I love the improved foot planting and it's good to see a taste of the old school teams.

I quit. Seriously.

I was hoping to see a good Jordan signature dunk in this vid. That two-handed slam by Jordan was a bit out of character. He virtually never slammed like that - should of definitely been a leaning one handed tomahawk or other one handed dunk.

MJ's free throw and jumper looked spot-on. I also like Pippen's post-up turnaround J.

Love how the AI CPU utilizes jumpers with leaners/drifters and fadeaways. Add to that the momentum jumpers and the fact that jumpshots look different depending on how long you hold the button. It makes the game and contesting shots unpredictable which is great.

I said this before but the shot contest is extremely realistic. Not jumping like a kangaroo but more stationed to the floor. Watching NBA games, the players generally don't jump too high off the ground to contest shots(or they will risk bumping/slapping the player). 2K11 got this right just like real life.

This vid was very hot. I love how they captured Mike and the rest of these guys. I like his shot too. This vid also lacks details(such as reflections) and Ron 2K confirmed that it is the same build he showed us. Despite that, still looked crazy.

Jordan certainly could have dunked in that situation but not off of that animation. You can't take a slow two step gather and have momentum needed to push back the defenders like that. It's just one of those things you accept in basketball games. We'll see how long that lasts.

I really like what I'm seeing. Sure, there are obvious nitpicks one can find in that video (incorrect shorts length and too modern-style graphics for that time period come to mind), but overall I'm impressed. Knowing that this video is from an older build also gives me optimism for the things they could have improved since then.

Looked Pretty Good Cant Wait..

Knowing this is an older build and with the new mid-air collisions perhaps contact can play out. Taken from today's insight:

Quote:
The second line of defense has been greatly enhanced as well. We’ve implemented a new midair collision system that allows for all kinds of body to body contact. If you meet a shooter in the air on his way for a layup or dunk, or if you slide underneath him to try and take a charge, you’ll see some beautiful collision animations result.
Quote:
With the new midair branching system, we can keep the user-controlled defenders under the user’s control and still have a proper collision response when bodies bang.

Yeah, gotta have a bit shorter shorts and Drexler must have medium socks (I will edit it). I loved Drexler and Kersey's dunks, those were fantastic! MJ with the calf sleeve - and it's not touching the sock ---> BEAUTIFUL! A bit short to say too much about it.

By the way, the basket's are a bit off, but not a big deal. Overall nice!

Pretty exciting to see the old Blazers too. The Drexler reverse dunk was nice. Loved that replay behind the backboard and no "sock glitch".

That Portland team was fantastic! Kersey was a beast! Power + athleticism!

this game will be awesome!!! But I was hoping that Kevin and Clark Kellogg wouldn't comment on the jordan challenge I was hoping for the actually commenters then
 
# 38 The 24th Letter @ 08/26/10 10:42 PM
Even if you dont love some of the animations, you have to love that the bodies are being respected, I havent seen any major "sucking animations" yet which is great...and that has seemed to be a theme in all the vids so far....hope this is in the final product....

That's because 2K got us used to think that the sky is the limit with 2K11...what can you do? But when you think about it, it wouldn't happen, that would be just too much, if there is such thing.
