Nice. Watching now. Hoping for improved commentary.

Edit:
I hate to be a buzz kill, but that was pretty disappointing to me. The commentary is bland, and hasn't really changed from last year. Halftime show hasn't been changed at all outside of some new angles for the replays. It just seems like little to no work has gone into presentation.

As far as gameplay, it seems like speed differentiation isn't really there yet either, especially on fast breaks. Bigs are barely falling behind guards when running a break. It also looks like CPU on-ball defenders are still reacting to button inputs by the user rather than having human-like reactions, which has always been my biggest gripe.

I will say that off ball movement looks much better, although there is still a little too much clustering. I also liked that there were a lot more loose balls. Hopefully they don't take those away because of online.

In any case, I'm hoping that the game feels more responsive, because that will be the biggest selling point for me.

No names on the back of the Pistons jerseys. Get on that 2K.

Wait... they're there but barely visible. Still a badly needed graphical fix.

Observations so far, from the other thread:

I've been very impressed with the AI on defensive and offense, and the player movement.

Crowd noise also sounds improved. Mazique isn't getting any love from his pick and rolls, the paint is closed off -- big improvement there from 2K17, where that was the easiest way to score game in and out.

Currently @10:26

The game just doesn't look very fluid in this video... passes and animations still look kind of awkward. Can't tell if the game has got worse in some areas or if this is just an old build.

Immediate impression.. Crowd sounds MUCH more engaged

Mazique is playing pretty fast and loose, so I'm going to attribute it to some of that.

Stack's leg bands look way better.

The game in general looks pretty much the same with better defensive movement and way better crowd atmosphere.
