NBA 2K12 - Inevitability (Sim Citi)

03:11 PM - September 8, 2011 by wrestlinggod1

Sim Citi checks in with this new NBA 2K12 article. Make sure you give it a read, as Da_Czar goes over the Celtics 13 entry play, a variation the C's run on a floppy play.

	In 2k11 come hell or high water the 2 would always come off the screens on the same side. So once you saw the initial action as a defender you knew with certainty were the play would terminate. NBA 2K12 introduces dynamic floppy decisions. This means that the only person on the floor who knows which screens the 2 will come off of is the 2.

Can't wait to play and see this in action. I can't think of another sport where you would have this many options every play possession, maybe soccer, or hockey. To see this in a video game is crazy.

Knowing 2k tho it's only going to get better with time as far as tge AI's ability to understand what your trying to do and counter. For strategy heads this starts to even the playing field a little bit. So that the cpu doesn't have break it's attack and freelance at the first sign of trouble. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's the thing ID did so well though...they had plays just like that and you could never tell where the hit was coming from

I can't believe we will ever reach that games level of relentless AI because it was almost too perfect lol, but you had to stay on your toes always

the offense has gotten a lot of attention this year it really makes me even more so intrigue to want to know depths of the balance that they defense is capable off

I sure hope there are defensive tools to counteract these seemingly unlimited branching options that plays will yield in 2K12. Couple these plays with a mix of free styling for variability and you could really frustrate a defense once you have mastered a teams playbook. In the voice of Bart Scott "CANT WAIT!"
