La Bomba Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Is it just me or do the servers absolutely suck this year? I try to play games online and it always tells me to look at the FAQ or something like that. I know it's not my Internet because I play other games online perfectly fine.

kingfish Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 (edited) Any suggestions on weather or not to get this or live? I havn't tried demos but last year demos made me feel like live was gunna be good and it sucked so any suggestions?Do NOT get 2k10. Usually 2k game play is pretty good but this years its so wack! Driving the lane is so easy and most players miss open layups while Kobe Wade Lebron make ridiculous over the head shots. Its just a bad game with a ton of glitches as well. Online play sucks, you dont get wins you deserve sometimes. Defense is non existent in this game, there is no defensive stance and the lock on doesnt even work. Basically you just pick a player and hes just standing straight up the whole entire time and when you move him he just runs to the spot instead of playing d. Steals are so easy to get in this game, steals happen like 20 times per team at least in online play, every pass is tipped or picked off. My player mode is the only thing thats good, but even that is soo easy. You will end up getting 20 points per game easily with about 60 % field goal as a rookie. I wouldnt know what happens after your rookie season, because the game froze in the middle of an autosave and it corrupted my save file. Even when I turned autosave off it still autosave my player mode for some reason, no point in retrying because the game freezing is bound to happen again in the middle of an autosave. You should get NBA live. I wish I did, now ill end up selling 2k and hopefully getting a decent amount back and putting it towards live or modern warfare 2. Lives online play is very good, and the game play is more realistic plus you can actually play defense in that game. Oh and just look at the 2k sports forums. It seems everyone on there hates the game as well, and is switching to live. Edited November 8, 2009 by kingfish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moeroadkill Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 I found a way to make the game feel more realistic, especially for point gaurds. While playing your next game, pause and go to Coaching, then go to Coach Settings. Put your PlayVision on Show All, Playcalling Messages to Show All, and Offense Playcalling to Auto. From now on in every half court possesion, a play will automatically be called, and the game will show you where you are supposed to move, pass, and screen. It'll make it feel more like an NBA game on the offensive end without having to spend extra time memorizing the plays you run or figuring out yourself which play you want to run in each possession. You'll still get scoring opportunities, just a little differently. can i do that with centers? because all i pretty much do is pick and pop and westbrook finds me 99% of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 can i do that with centers? because all i pretty much do is pick and pop and westbrook finds me 99% of the timeI'm sure it should work with any position, although I've only tried it with my point guard. A couple notes about it from trying it out myself:- The setting doesn't save for some reason, at least not for me yet, so you have to adjust your settings in the coaching menu in each new game. - Sometimes plays don't work because defensive animations gets players stuck and the play fades out. - The plays normally go to the hot hand. If you've been making recent baskets, more plays will be called to get you open looks. - Remember, you don't always have to do exactly as the play says. If you have a scoring opportunity, take it. If a player is open that it doesn't say to pass to, give it up. If you are open in a play and it wasn't set up for you, call for the ball and take the shot if you get it.

Poe Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 In My Player mode in the menus go to Save/Quit - Save - Create New. My original saved file name is Poe PG. After some progress, I made a second save and called it Poe PG 2 or something as like a checkpoint save, and then save over Poe PG again to make sure it autosaves on the original file. Every now and then after playing several games, I save over the other file so I wouldn't have too much to redo in case anything happened.

Poe Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Ugh I wish I would have done that Meh.. don't sweat it too much, man. Just take a break from the game. Eventually you'll find motivation to try something new in the mode, like a different position and skill specialist, or maybe you'll just enjoy doing the same thing as before, although it's always a drag to redo things. Also, 2K has been working to fix things like easy inside scoring and awkward substitutions, and online pick up games work now, so that's also something new to try.

Sun Tzu Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I'm stressing... I need to study but I'm not motivated nor bothered to do so. I'm too lazy and get distracted. This is the end of year exams and there's less than 5 days to go and I have barely started. I'm aiming above average for everything but IST and Drama cause those subjects aren't really important to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I'm still waiting for the next decent patch before I start My Player mode. Have they really not been aware of the "important decision" glitch? I want that fixed before I start again.

kingfish Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Ugh im leaning more and more towards selling this game. Explain to me how Lebron gets 24 points on 10-12 shooting in one quarter and a half, I was done after that. Online play and gameplay in general is a joke. Is there any defense in this game? Any at all? The only defense ive seen is guys getting 10 steals per game and literally every pass being tipped. Worst basketball game ever.

Sun Tzu Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 T-Mac got 18 points on me in the first quarter... Yao Ming kept blocking my shots and probably got 4 blocks in the first quarter as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yao Ming kept blocking my shots and probably got 4 blocks in the first quarter as well.The Rockets are the biggest pain in the [expletive] team in the game in my opinion. Yao won't miss down low, he blocks everything no matter who shoots, and somehow T-Mac plays like Kobe. Go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
