Visual Concepts wants to keep players completely immersed in their careers. To do so, they plan to give you consistent feedback about what you are doing and how you are doing during your career. One of the major ways the mode interacts with the player is with a virtual Twitter account. As you progress through your career and become a more integral part of your team and the league, you will earn new Twitter followers.
These followers interact with you to congratulate you on big games and give you a hard time after a rough outing. As you get more famous, opposing players may trash talk you, celebrities may name-drop you, and NBA legends may offer advice on how to reach the pinnacle of the sport.
All of the things you say and do during press conferences or in relation to team loyalty feed back into the dynamic commentary system. Last year the teammate AI never understood what kind of player you were, whether it be a spot shooter or a post player.
In the lead-up to NBA 2K13, an engineer spent two months developing a new recording system so the AI better recognizes your tendencies. If you post up a lot this year, your teammates start to funnel plays your direction.
No doubt taking inspiration from the Dwight Howard trade drama from the offseason, this year your player can be invited to sit down with the general manager to have conversations about the direction of the franchise.
Once you attain superstar status, you can start influencing his decisions, whether that be the fate of your head coach, the types of players he pursues in free agency, the players you would prefer to have on the court with you, or your position at the club. If you attain LeBron James status you can even force a trade to another team.
The newest version of the popular game series includes several improvements to the graphics and control mechanics. One of these changes is the new one-finger control option. The original control scheme is there as well. The game also presents itself in a way similar to an actual televised game. Combined with controller vibration when you get bumped, the collision system brings the physicality of the NBA to life.
The action in the paint looks much better, with players forced to adjust shots in mid-air; stalwarts in the post such as Dwight Howard can now make their presence felt more easily. NBA 2K13' s tweaked passing becomes apparent after your big man grabs a rebound under the basket. Throwing to teammates feels much more unpredictable, but in a good way. A higher probability of loose balls makes for a dynamic passing game — it forces you to throw passes more intelligently against defenders who are quick to intercept careless tosses.
In-game Kinect integration keeps you out of team-management menus and offers a funny dose of realism: Swearing at your TV will result in a technical foul. Those changes join other improvements in MyCareer formerly known as My Player , the single-player career mode. Role-defining Signature Skills let you customize your star beyond his attributes. I liked the option to buy some abilities that magnified my player's strengths and my own outside-shooting play style , and others that minimized his weaknesses.
NBA 2K's career setup consistently features a better implementation of off-the-court interactions than any other sports game, and MyCareer upholds that tradition. These RPG-like modes are designed to connect you to your player, and I certainly felt proud to see my athlete's face on a billboard or being used to advertise ticket packages. The new option to chat with your general manager even lets you influence the direction of your career and team, a realistic interaction that makes you feel like you're part of a basketball club.
NBA 2K13' s social media feature read: in-game Twitter — which incorporates cheers and jeers from fans, fellow athletes, and celebrities — furthers that sense of immersion, of living life as an NBA star.
MyTeam, a brand-new mode for the franchise, is essentially a clone of EA Sports' "Ultimate Team," which lets you assemble your own fantasy team with in-game trading cards.
The best thing I can say about MyTeam is that I experienced little to no lag while playing other users online — Visual Concepts finally appears to have resolved that perennial shortcoming of the NBA 2K franchise. Looking to make a statement? Have a meeting with the GM about firing your coach. Want a chemistry boost? Take your teammates out for dinner. After putting together your custom sneakers, you can then link your design with NikeID. Here other people can vote on your designs, or you can have them actually made and shipped to your house.
The 2K brand really took off when they got Michael Jordan on board. They revolutionized their legend system, and now they're at it again. Say you want to put Kobe's words to the test and see if the Olympic team could be the team. Now you can do that in 2K
