NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Expanded Playcall System

04:04 PM - September 7, 2010 by thereginator28

2K Sports just posted another NBA 2K11 Developer Insight. This one talks about the expanded playcall system.

Quote:


	"All Teams Are Not Created Equal - Each team has a base playbook of at least thirty plays that reflect their coach's philosophy and style of play. The marquis teams also have additional plays available to them that they can run for additional flavor. We created individual sets for teams as well. What this means is that even though two coaches may use a floppy set, their personnel and style may dictate that their floppy set starts differently than that of another team that runs a floppy. Now even if teams run plays that have the same end goal, the look you get from team to team will differ based on how they run it and who they run it with. If you consider that we have well over 1000 plays across all the current and the old school NBA teams, you will see that, as a User, you have a plethora of options to vary your offense."

We are working on it w/ the 2K team. We'll see what happens. I'd say chances are greater than 75% that we post it tonight.

Well do you care to give us a fully outlined report of what you saw in vivid
detail, leaving nothing out and holding nothing back?

Can't wait for the vids like the other hoop fiends but have one small question: Are they still having the plays diagrammed on the court that you have to strictly follow or the play stops or is it a more instinctive system like live 10 had last year?

OS is awesome and this is why people need to donate to keep this sort of awesomeness coming for as long as possible!

I "AM" smiling. Can you dig it.

Da_Czar, Steve - thank you guys for the hard work, updates etc. I just pre-ordered the game.

# 139 BattleTested20 @ 09/07/10 09:55 PM

The Czar,

Just a heads up. If I were you I would definitely make it a point that when the video or videos get released that you make it a point to put in BOLD that it is from a very early build as people will bash it some way or another.

I'm sure you're on top of it all already, just trying to t help make sure this video gets the credit and respect it deserves.

This game is shaping up to be something special if it all plays like it sounds.
