NBA 2K12 Hands-On From Gamescom (DaWolf)

[SwagDoc101]

im mos def going to buy...its sad that it sounds like some of these guys that they send to these events dont really know how to play the game...not being negative ...im just saying..always have to judge for myself

Thanks for the write-up, DaWolf. Highly appreciated!

Just a couple of questions,

1. Did you try to do some "flick-flick" moves? Was there a change on how to do those moves compared to 2K11?

2. Were the CPU team repeating their offensive plays on consecutive possessions?

You will see that player models are better, very lean looking and not beefed up, shadowing on players is also improved. Check out the hi-res screens. As for the physics, player movements and fluidity of the game, man it's feels (yes, feels even though I have just watched) so fluid, organic and "human".

Yea I did see them,, but w/o any real close ups or anything I couldnt really tell, plus its an off-screen video so yea, just sayin...

was the passing more accurate? one of my main issues with 2k11 was the passing was not very accurate. I would push towards one person and it would go towards someone totally different. did you feel a change in this? Overall I love 2k11. passing was the main sour point for me. aside from that . one other question, did the defenders have the spidey sense for picking off passes again? 2k is must pick up for me, just hoping they addressed these issues.

Thanks, but Steve Kerr is a third commentator? Is Kellogg still in?

[ffaacc03]

- Kerr is an addition and Kellog was never out ...

Now DaWolf, just a question, I know this isnt a Q & A but:

- Were the stolen passes done by players with their backs facing the passer/ball/trajectory/receiver ? ... ala fortune tellers, like 2k11 ? ... if so, how often ? ... or were they facing or partially doing so ?

Thanks for the write-up. Much appreciated. Can't wait for more info. I know I will be in love with this game. I still play 2k11 almost daily.
