This game could have been better

I dont know about anyone else out there but personally this game is too complicated and hard. All the new stuff in the basic menus and in the gameplay are cool. BUT, some of the new animations seems overly trying to be realistic without giving the gamer the control needed to want or pull some things off without being force into an animation.

I am also sad that this game is soooooo hard!!!!! I been playing 2k for years!!! how in the world can the computer shoot 87% from the field consistently!?!?!?!? I have put the sliders low and the difficulty level to all star, but nothing seems to curb the unstoppable computer. I can never get my players to do anything in the game consistently regardless of my settings. I have missed sooooo many layups, and the controls seem to lag A LOT!!! I am on breakways/fastbreaks and when I use the shot stick and turbo I might dunk, or stop on a dime and do a pump fake. Killing my offense completely.

2k could have done better than this mess. I just got off the game playing with all star diff. and I got blown out by 30 by the 3rd quarter. I mean......this game has me seriously frustrated. AND LAST BUT NEVER LEAST...... the 2k camera is jacked!!!! they made hits game specifically to be played by side view, which SUCKS!!!! You cannot use the 2k camera because it lags like you are playing an online game with a person with a bad connection. DANG IT, I am starting to hate this game. I would say its better than live but 2k took a big step down with me on this one. I am a 2k diehard veteran and I literally suck bad at this game. This game needs sooo many patches right now its sickening.


OHH wait!!! quickly the online 2k servers are the most horrible, diabolical, slowest, worst online gameplay situation I have ever partaken of. I literally wanted to throw my controller at my TV!! The 5 on 5 online thing was a good idea, but the 10 matches I was one all were lagged soooo bad the game couldnt be started. And ranked online isnt much better. Matter of fact, dont get this game unless you play with friends a lot. The CPU cheats badly, and you know it does when mike conley jr, and open PF, C's who have no jump shot look like perennial all stars in this game.
