Yet you were defending the other game where they were dunking all over the place and scooting defenders out of the way in the air like hot air ballons?

Boy I find it funny that you completely decide not to comment on the basis of the thread which is playcalling but you come in here complaining off topic

Let it stop here because im already sick of it

My only gripe with this video is when doing the 42 Rub play and when Pau gives the ball to Kobe, he stands still for a second before driving to the basket, it would of been nice if Pau gives him the ball with Kobe in full stride and he doesn't have to stop on his way to the basket. That was my only gripe with it but it all looks good, Kobe taking that jumpshot in the 42 Rub was awesome in how open he was. Always like plays where the ballhandler is a screen for a player.

thats my gripe as well.

Wonder if either Icon or the stick passing can help ease that stop and go.. OR... if it can be included in the patch as a fix

Its possible it could have already been tuned in the newer builds that were created after these clips.

I don't know. Must be a hard problem to fix because I saw that in 2K10. Hopeful patch fix.

Could the stop and go from that 42 Rub a side-effect of lead pass reduction?

Hopefully, it was just a user fault wherein Czar failed to used the left stick to dictate if Kobe should move or where should Kobe move.

Maybe. Like I said, I saw it last year. It could be the stick isn't pressed when the man gets the ball. It be that the movement system thinks he is standing at the end of that handoff. There's no telling.

But I guess it's a good thing that everything else is smooth enough that it stands out.

@ 4:12 or 4:13
I didn't really like how KG got caught by the pick animation, when he could've easily cut back to defend Odom.

# 189 Goffs @ 09/11/10 04:51 PM

Youngfaze there was nothing wrong with KG getting caught in that pick...what was wrong though is Davis mario running and getting stuck at the guy setting up the pick which let Odom to the basket...

i believe its just monday-friday

From his Video Intro: "Ten Teams, 10 Days, Next 2 Weeks... Monday-Friday.".

It's been years since I've picked up a b-ball game. This is definitely the year to return! Great vids, Czar!

What was the last game you played?

# 194 airjoca @ 09/11/10 08:19 PM

Does anyone else hear the Czars voice in their head when reading his posts?

Taken care of. Next time, please use the report feature.

Czar, what was their general thoughts on the "handoff" on 42 Rub? Did they seem to echo our sentiments, or what was their thinking on it? Patchable? Or is that a wait until next year type deal. Not a dealbreaker by any means, but aesthetically, looks better with a handoff.

Ok I seen what you were talking about. You're right.

# 197 OGKing @ 09/11/10 08:42 PM

Thank god, they got kobe shot right

. This is very good news, it's going to be tough to guard kobe.

There are still going to be some things that bother some people despite all the advances the game has made. Yet the advances are undeniable. So with everything that can detract from the game aside. I have simply found 2k11 to give me some of the most authentic "basketball" moments I have had in a video game. Please see above again... TO ME it wasn't about did Kobe shuffle or take 3 steps. It was about how in the hell am I going to stop him and Pau... It was who can I leave on the 12 island to give that strong side help. It was about the fact that when I played the Bucks they had different sets with a different concern for me defensively. When I play the spurs it was how can I keep duncan off the block and can I find a defensive free agent PF in time for the second half.... Then I played the Warriors and they presented a whole different set of issues for me to deal with on both ends of the floor. Does that mean that there were no warps or slight sliding here or there ? NO. But until there is a game that completely eliminates those issues they will always be apparent. The question for me is did this happen at a rate that completely took away my enjoyment from the game or cheesed me out of victory. In my limited time with the game I have to say no. BUT I wasn't just playing as you guys will get to play. I had the thoughts of what the community is going to want to know, what questions will they want answered, as well as trying to plan out this feature and staying focused on getting exactly what I needed to capture to make a coherent show. So I am in no position to help guys make certain their one particular grievance was completely solved. Who could do that with so much on their plate and so little time to really play ? So considering all of that. I am still very very impressed with the gameplay of nba 2k11. There are some people who like to nitpick a thing to death I am not one of those people. But I can appreciate when a company throws everything but the kitchensink into a game. When that happens you know it wasn't a lack of effort that something was not fixed. Its often said but seldom understood they have less than a year to make these games. Not everything is going to be perfect. they could have went from 80 plays to 160 and put on the back of the box that they DOUBLED the amount of plays and did that for the next 4 years... they didn't do that. They doubled the amount of plays that ANY basketball game has ever had and some folks are still not happy.... LOL .... WOW !!!

Thanks for all your feedback Czar!!!! It's so hard for me to nitpick a game considering I fell in love when EA was pushing LAKERS VS CELTICS. All these present games are super impressive to me and have come along way.

I want to be able to play basketball and not just video games like you've been saying for the last few years.

I never imagined in al my years that I could receive so much feedback from people who work directly or indirectly with the game developers. I don't expect anything to be perfect by any means I just want to feel like my $60 were worth it. I work hard for the money.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your honest opinion.

Er... yeah, No homo.
