[MavsManiac4Life]

Are you guys gonna make any big improvements to Association/My Player mode(s) this year?

Hope that's specific enough.

[Goffs]

Will they bring back progressive sweat?

[videlsports]

Do you guys have any improvements for the NBA today feature?

Will you be able to save your plays and use them online?

[Vni]

Minor question but any chance you're gonna improve the sound when you score a bucket or the sound of the switch. Been the same for years now and I feel it could be improved, make it more addictive, tighter, louder.
Thanks.

Will Blacktop Mode Return? Will it have the game options 2K11 and before had, or the limited 5v5 to 21 game 2K12 had?

Will HORSE be on disc?

Will blocked shots get blocked harder like in 2K11 or tipped like in 2K12?

Will the speed glitch get fixed?

Will the "swish" glitch be fixed? The upper ring ad that plays all game after the first home hoop is a shot or layup.

Will the shotclocks be updated to show tenths of a second?

Have defensive rotations been fixed and is the AI doubling once again?

1. Any chance we'll get complete roster control out-of-the-box like in 2K11?

2. Is the crowd noise issue in Association and/or Season modes (where the crowd doesn't react at all if a legend team or CAT is being used) going to be fixed?

3. Is the new All-Star mode going to be integrated into Association/Season or is it completely separate?

4. Are any existing modes being removed?

5. Are the legend teams going to remain or are some being removed? Are any new ones being added?

6. Any chance that CAT mode can be expanded so that full text can be used on the uniforms? Personally, I think not being able to type a complete name or city on the jersey the way ALL other NBA jerseys are configured takes away from the whole experience.

7. Any chance we can import logos to use in CAT? Or that older logos of past teams (COUGH, sonics, COUGH) could be added to the long list of generic logos? (Wishful thinking, but worth asking about)

That's all I got for now....

[Paul Pierce_OS]

1. Are they letting you edit coaches this year?
2. Are they fixing the cat issues?
3. Is the floater animation used more?
4. Is the game more editable?

All these questions are for teamup:

What, if any, upgrades or adjustments will the implement?

-Will they address and remove the int foul and double team glitch?

-Will they bring back the shoot-around before a teamup game starts (like 2k9) or ideally add a co-op free shootaround mode for the private lobby?

-Will there be public lobbies?

-Will HOF/ Sim be a matchmaking (or searchable) gametype?

-Can you select the player you want to use for each position before the game starts (in a private lobby- they removed this in 2k12)?

-Will you be able to select home/away jerseys finally?

-Will we be able to select All Star, Rookie, and Sophmore teams in a private game? How about classic teams?

-Will there be a "random" team select in private lobbies, and if so, will all players in the lobby be able to see when it is clicked so it is a legit random select?



...If private game sliders come back, please make them viewable by all players in lobby.
