Top Presentation Wishes

These are the key points for presentation.

  • Make full use of ESPN integration and have the game’s default camera angles, the overlays and general production/presentation accurately represent a real NBA broadcast.
  • Make commentary sound as organic as possible with natural sounding conversation, anecdotes and reactions to the current game situation as well as the current and recent seasons in Dynasty/Become Legendary. Have the commentators react with appropriate excitement and play off one another as in real life.
  • Make sure that measurements are in feet, inches and pounds in all versions rather than centimetres and kilograms for the PAL version. It takes away from the presentation to see the metric system used; at the very least, include an option so that users can toggle between the default imperial system and metric system if desired.
  • For the View Player screen, display information as a “player card” as in NBA 2K12 with career stats in table format (kind of like the NBA.com profiles) along with their nickname, bio data and other relevant info.
  • Include a detailed championship celebration with the Larry O’Brien and Bill Russell Finals MVP trophy presentations, with David Stern doing voiceover (as in NBA 2K12). Offseason trips to the White House for the champions and so forth would also be nice.
  • Get David Stern and Adam Silver to do voiceover work for the Draft in Dynasty and Become Legendary, as they did in NBA 2K12.
  • If there is a PC version, please ensure that the menus are as user-friendly as possible, with the ability to navigate them using a gamepad as well as mouse-friendly functions/pop-ups etc.
  • Allow the user to activate simple and detailed on-court play diagrams to assist in running plays.
  • Include animated play diagrams in strategy menus.
  • Include arena specific chants, sounds etc.
  • Add moving hair for players with long hairstyles.
  • Add more accessories including singlets, custom sleeves, mouthguards etc.
  • Keep dynamic crowds and have crowds react intelligently to how the game is progressing (hot for the home team on a big run, quiet or booing when the home team is playing poorly or the away team is on a big run). Have crowds wear team jerseys and colours, especially during the Playoffs (like Chicago’s “See Red”, Mavs fans all wearing blue in Playoff games, etc)
