XBOX 360 NBA 2K11 Thread of second round virgins and bogus alley oops

i dont think any of the shooting sliders are an issues -- 2K will always give someone a 2K run in every single game, no matter what.

my concern is primarily based on just how awkward online plays. i shouldn't go 0-10 with missed layups, or have rebounds consistently bouncing off players' heads. i also noticed in my game with phx that some of our passes would just go warp speed out of bounds even though nothing was out of the ordinary.

which leads me to believe some sliders that shouldn't be changed -- offensive awareness, defensive awareness, hands, etc -- have been.

coulda just been a weird game though, it happens occasionally.

i didn't change any of those, i think i upped the mid range and three maybe a tick or two up. They were 45-46, i moved them to 47-48. I didn't change awr at all.

where u at

Heh, I need to play you, heat,and bulls. My AIM is on the front page if anyone wants to hit me up to play. I usually can't play until after 6pm EST. I should be available tonight if I don't fall asleep from doing homework till like 2am last night.

And thanks to everyone I've played/talked to. I know I'm probably easily the worse at this game but the pointers and help and willingness to give pointers from the people I've dealt with already has been awesome and makes me really happy I did join this league even if I get blown out by 40 points each game. :p Awesome community, thanks guys.

Sorry, a very serious issue has come up in my personal life. Don't know if I'll be able to do anything related to this game for a while. Best chance will be tomorrow evening but no promises.

hope everything is alright man. don't worry about our game.

2K servers DC'n right now anyways :lol

we may need an extension on this first week DCX -- multiple days have been shit due to servers.

edit: the kings' playbook fuckin blows too lol. everything is the same pick and roll to iso shit for every fucking position except C.

IT WOULD BE NICE, 2K, IF I COULD SAVE A NEW PLAYBOOK INSTEAD OF SPENDING 20 MINUTES PRE-GAME TIME TO CHANGE PLAYS. MAYBE NEXT YEAR.

I've been playing scrims with people and have been dc'd a couple times. Have the servers always been this bad? This is the first time I've played it online.

2K has a pretty notorious history in regards to online servers. long story short, they just upgraded their DREAMCAST ERA TECHNOLOGY -- no jokes -- in the past 6 months.

our previous season went pretty smooth imo. maybe only a couple days where the servers were acting up.

i dunno what's going on right now though... seems like the last few days have been inconsistently DC'ing.
 
Sorry Smokey, I was exhausted by the time you got back to me and wound up falling asleep waiting for your game to finish. Are you free to play tonight at all?


And whoever has the bulls, are you available tonight?

Heh, not home then most likely. I can play at 12pm est if you want if you get on like right at 12. I don't want to be up past 1am if I can help it since I'll probably have to shovel a shitload of snow tomorrow if forecasts are correct.

Fuck this game, if pheeniks goes up by more than 6 points he can't miss a shot no matter what until he's on a 20 pt run. This momentum is such bullshit. And is it impossible to steal? He'll stand still and I never got a steal.

don't worry, pheeniks is an elite player.

some of the things you encounter with him won't happen against other opponents.
