NBA 2K24 Gameplay Enhancements Revealed with Trailer

[STLRams]

This is an interesting feature with 2K using actual game footage instead of straight mo cap to capture players movements. It makes sense to go this route technology wise since they have unlimited footage of all of the NBA players, heck even rookies coming into the league. Also they should be able to constantly update the players moves if they are using gameplay footage.

Two questions I do have are for one, will any of this translate over to the classic players? Classic players from the mid 1980's and up, they should be able to capture their gameplay footage easily from their games. It would be pretty cool for all if not most of the classic players movements, shots, dribbling ect to get updated to real life since they are using this instead of MO cap, which of course is in possible to use on retired players. If so this would be a huge step forward for the classic teams game play.

The other question I have is a presentation one. Can we finally get a true halftime show with better halftime highlights and highlight's from around the league of other games going on like NFL2K5 use to do. Especially since it seem like 2K will be utilizing actual NBA game footage alot with this 2K24 feature.

I sure hope so for the classic teams. I'd love to see Magic Johnson play and move like Magic.

Let's go! Good stuff Mike! Can't wait!

I just hope the issue with the ball not hitting the floor & getting stuck in mid air at times during certain chained dribble moves has been addressed. Especially with all of the new dribble moves being added. That has been one of my biggest gripes with the game.

All of this looks promising. Y’all know I’m a visuals guy though. Few things that standout. STAPLES FINALLY LOOKS LIKE STAPLES!! Arena specific lighting has finally been implemented!! And Tatum finally looks like a basketball player!! Huge W 2k 🙌

The crazy thing is how the defense reacted to the animation. That is actually very realistic. I need to know how does this behave as a user Defender? I hope we won't be stuck in an animation

O yeah, I’m impressed of the defender movement that feels very real and not only sliding with determinate fix path.
