Looks pretty good...controls feel a bit sluggish though...

Just bumped into a weird glitch. Rondo was fouled while shooting. They called the shooting foul on rondo and gave gasol the free throws.

Just played a game and executed a move that had me jump off my chair.....Had Kobe in the post against Allen on the wing, hit the "b" button for a pass fake and (out of the post) Kobe executed a "Jordanesque" ball fake with one hand pump to his right side, Allen bit and I pulled off a fadeaway jumper.....Money! Wish I had that on video. Damn that was sweetness!!!

On another note (I searched the thread before bringing this up and didn't see anything)....Is it just me or does anyone else notice a delay in the time it takes to grab an offensive rebound and the time it takes to put the ball back up under the basket? I'm grabbing offensive boards, pressing the shot stick (have also tried the shoot button) and the player isn't responding immediately to the command...It's like there's a 1-2 second delay in the time it takes to put the shot up. Kinda frustrating.

maybe its just me and its probably the level this demo is on but does this game seem a bit more "Arcadey"

It all depends on how you play.

If you pumpfake a lot I've heard it can get pretty easy to score.

I've never been one to do that so I would know.

Shooting percentages might be a tad high.

2k11's D seems a lot smarter though. Pick and Roll D is ton's better and help D seems to be a lot more consistent and strong.

How do you spin to the basket from post position BEFORE dribbling? I want to catch the rock with my back to the basket and spin to the basket before dribbling...is this possible and how?

Lay off turbo... I get separation simply by moving away from the defender when they are on the backfoot and shoot a momentum jumper in that direction.

Don't expect the defaults to be totally sim. We're already see nuff trepidation about getting passes picked. I think this is as designed. The game has more "sim" than what you're seeing in the demo.

Maybe. I'm not seeing many passes being picked or defensive plays in general though. Also not seeing much fouling either, only 2 total (1 shot foul) in 5+ games. Off ball movement as well is still non existent every now and then. Things like that may not differ much between levels. We'll see.

For example, Kobe Bryant would be B or O. So initially, tap LB/L1 and then quickly tap B/O. A red circle will be under the player of choice, Kobe in this case. You will now need to press another face button (A,B,X,Y/X,O,Triangle,Square) to initiate a play. If done correctly, play art will show up on the court. It'll take a few times to be able to perform it constantly, and i'm sure that in the released version of 2k11 it will be much easier to do judging by Da Czar's videos. If you have any questions, just ask them in here.

Quoting myself so those with Ps3 or anyone else who just got the demo can learn how to run plays without having to read this whole thread.

Finally the demos out 4 the p3, Would be nice if we could use celtics since it took so long

# 658 fsufan4423 @ 09/14/10 08:39 PM
