I just thought it strange that the fact that the replays happen instantly should over score whatever weirdness is happening inside the replay, but that is accepted. Probably because it's always been that way.

I don't mind Nike + stuff so long as it doesn't dominate and certain players aren't stuck with them full time. I don't think it's just me, but when something looks visually off, that is as jarring or more jarring than when it is displayed. I simply don't want most of my mid game dunk highlights to be stylized in black and white while pimping a brand and product.

Of course the closest to reality would be correct visuals at the correct time, and the least realistic would be unrealistic visuals at incorrect times.

I actually thought the Thunder was the human team given how many bad shots they took. Lol.

Just don't turn the camera upside down or film armpits and we'll be gangsta, my man.

There are 3 more smaller ones to come with a little better view but Youtube seems to have a problem with the processing.

# 167 Eman5805 @ 08/16/12 06:21 PM

Love the new stepback type moves. Shame the guy didn't quite grasp you can't do moves like that after you've picked up your dribble.

I cant really tell what exactly the problem is. I guess the qucik releases but maybe the legs, the elevation... You must have a copy of NBA 2K7 or 8 in the office. Just try out the shots I mentioned with Anthony on 8 or Kobe/ Lebron/ Richard Jefferson on 7 and I think you will see what I mean.

I think last year was worse

@DaWolf, i mentioned this in a different thread but maybe u can shed some light on the matter. After watching a few of the vids, its seems like a lot of little things on the presentation side have been missing this year. From what Ive seen the crowd doesn't look as good, mascots are missing from the floor, and overall atmosphere seems to be not as impressive as last years game. Have u noticed any of this when playing?

# 174 eko718 @ 08/16/12 06:43 PM

Thanks for the vids DaWolf.

I'm glad that guys have warmups in the pregame now, but why are Wade and Lebron doing their pregame routines in warmups?

I think thats a bug because I saw another intro without the warmups.

# 176 eko718 @ 08/16/12 06:45 PM

^^^^Ahhh, cool. I hope so...

Crowd looks fine video quality may be the problem. But youre right I didnt see any mascots but thats maybe because of the demo. Dont think that they will be cut out.

That bounce pass at 2:50 is going to have a big impact on improving fastbreaks.

# 179 DaWolf @ 08/16/12 06:52 PM

Btw after playing against a user today I think that the fastbreaks are fixed. But dont quote on on that. I won with a 3 point game winner by Wade btw - my opponent was really good to my surprise.

# 180 ForeverVersatile @ 08/16/12 06:59 PM

@ Da'Wolf is Steve uploading your vids now?? Sorry i'm ready to see more lol.
