As the intersection of "Gunball" and "New Year's goods", the useless PLUS that countless players love, hate and feel helpless, "NBA2K" is here again. But this time we are waiting for the National Bank!
After Neymar, Owen became the second big man to be deeply involved in cover topics this summer.
For fans and players who like the NBA and have played recent generations of "NBA2K", these recent games look like real-life Cleveland Cavaliers - They were so strong in the Eastern Conference that they had no opponents, but in the finals they were instantly forced to switch to hell difficulty. Similarly, after the 2K production team became accustomed to "laying down to win" and becoming the strongest basketball game of the year, they found that compared to EA's "LIVE series", a once tangible opponent, the players' never-ending high standards and the company's The strict requirement of profitability is the ultimate trophy that is most difficult to face in this series. Especially this year, the warnings from players and game media have become increasingly harsh. The revenue requirements of 2K executives and the players’ anti-Krypton gold calls are competing against each other, leaving the development team in a dilemma.
Judging from the actual performance of the finished game of this generation, "NBA 2K18" (hereinafter referred to as "2K18") has very smoothly incorporated all the criticisms and suggestions from the player's dad and the boss' dad, and has made various improvements that will satisfy both parties. Try it, let us officially enter the "inspection" link.
Irving, who switched to his club, and 2K18, who are working hard to improve, stand together on the starting line to reach the top.
National Bank version - the online quality is better than all the words.
This time, the National Bank version of "2K18" is in time for the start of the regular season. It was long overdue. This game comes with two improvements that domestic players are most concerned about. One is the level of game localization, and the other is the quality of network connections.
I remember that when the 2K series first came into official Traditional Chinese, "Michael Jordan" was clearly visible. The explanation of technical movements in the practice mode was also translated with many errors, and even the sequence of inputting key commands was not clearly described. . The coach's tactical board is a mixture of Chinese and English, "coaching" players with non-basketball majors to improve their bilingual skills. Nowadays, the Chinese version of "2K18" has fully Chineseized all the text except the main title, including the floating fonts in the UI part, which have been replaced with the corresponding simplified Chinese.
First of all, we must recognize the efforts of the National Bank version in this regard. However, after doing enough homework, it caused discomfort to a small number of players, mainly reflected in the difficulty in unifying the translation of player names with the names everyone is used to. For example, the Nuggets' second-year point guard "Murray" was translated in the game. became "Murray"; the team names displayed in Chinese on the big screens at each team's home court also felt a little inconsistent, including the "American Basketball Association 18" printed on the physical disk packaging box, which reminded people that they were responding to their superiors. It is stipulated that all "NBA" be changed to "National Basketball League" to eliminate foreign language nomenclature.
The team name in Chinese characters will be displayed on the big screen at the team's home court
Except for a few pictures and texts that are in the original text, the National Bank version has left almost no dead ends and achieved complete Chineseization.
Compared to this kind of ego that caters to the system in order to pass the review. specifications (there is an item in the approval process that "English words need to be replaced with Chinese"), what players are really concerned about is the Internet quality of the National Bank version. What I need to remind everyone here is that only the Chinese version of "NBA 2K18" can be logged into the Chinese version. Non-national PSN accounts can play in the Chinese version and can connect across servers, but the purchased VC points cannot be used in the Chinese version.
As for the actual Internet quality, judging from the author’s tests in the past few days (Telecom 100 MB, of course, no need to use scientific Internet) and the feedback information collected, the network quality of the national server is high and then low: the first two days were silky smooth. , no matter playing against each other or opening card packs, it was refreshing and refreshing. When I almost made up my mind to return to the online battle world... Then on the third day, I started to be unable to connect to the server intermittently, or I couldn't find anyone after I connected.The combination of bullet time and crazy fast forwarding in the game was very challenging. After two days of convulsions, there was another problem with data synchronization. There were also many other players who complained similarly. Similar situations were still good and bad at the deadline (yesterday it was silky smooth again) , unable to connect again this morning).
Therefore, considering that the Internet has become an almost necessary game requirement for this game, it is recommended that non-hardcore gamers wait and see for the time being and wait until the National Bank's servers are stable before considering buying it.
Even if the network is slow, our department is still picturesque
"Reasonable" or "unreasonable" - Curry is a new challenge that the production team must face
Banning the Warriors, this is what some fans and players set each other during interviews Restrictions (based on the current team). In "2K16", faced with Curry's unsolvable problem of "being more accurate in reality than in the game", the 2K production team once used the method of updating ultra-high values within a limited time to briefly let this guy's shooting skills fly, allowing players to I have become addicted to XJBT in the 2K series, which is generally strict in offense and defense, and strictly controls "monsters causing chaos" in non-MC mode. "Fortunately" the Cavaliers completed a shocking comeback in the finals that year, which delayed the production team's impossible task for another two years.
In an era when mobility and outside shooting can win championships, 2K chose O'Neal, a former insider with bugs, to endorse the luxury version
Now that the general trend is the general trend, "2K18" has finally made changes in the underlying design. This game has redesigned the micro-operations and macro-tactics for shooting, especially jump shots. On the surface, it just moves the shooting timing slot marked with the best shooting point from the player's feet to the head. In fact, there are many differences between ordinary players and pitchers, pitchers and pitchers, and pitchers and " splash brothers ". The "Splash Brothers" have obvious differences in feel between each other in terms of button pressing timing. The relatively "reasonable" shooting percentage calculation method of
's previous games was deliberately disrupted. Even if the shooting opportunity does not look like a good shooting opportunity, it will still have a high shooting percentage after meeting the conditions of a super shooter and achieving perfect shot timing. On the contrary, the vacancies that appear to be created by tactics will also be interfered with by the players' unreasonable defensive range, resulting in missed good shots. Similar to Curry's deadly chasing three-pointers in real life, "Keeping 6" dribbling 3,000 times and then taking a step with his right hand to pull up a jumper, and Irving's combination of ankle terminator and Kobe-style unreasonable shooting. There is more room for practice in my work. Although players may feel uncomfortable at the initial stage of getting started (after all, the initial awkwardness at the beginning of each generation has become the "tutorial" of all new year ball games), but the profit rate will be higher after practice and proficiency.
Both teams can play a pleasing offense. By the way, Zhou Qi's value is 69
While making waves from the outside, NBA2K's traditional reserved items-the singles skills of inside players are easier to learn in this game. From a simulation point of view, being hot on the outside and cold on the inside, and tapping shooters is becoming a new idea for many NBA teams to build teams. Big players such as Towns, Big Eyebrow, Bo Shen, Emperor... Although the names are more ruthless than the last (of course This is due to China’s fan culture), but if the operation is not simplified in the game, it can easily become an outside high turret or a rebounding machine; including the deluxe version of the "cover monster" O'Neal, although he is super strong in the game, he is more Mostly because of his Godzilla-like presence, the operation is secondary, which hurts the balance to some extent. Or you can also say that Shaq is so domineering in reality, and the game is just pragmatic.
Comments, endorsements, and competitions, O'Neal plays three roles and is honored as a 2K18 model worker
shouted at the screen "Don't switch defenses" - AI and tactics
Whether it will abuse the computer has been the difference between the 2K series for a long time An important standard for veterans and rookies, "2K18" faces the increasingly perfect trend of "multi-giants" and new team basketball in the league, and adds new tactical options to the original basis, allowing the AI to respond to player instructions within its capabilities.
Compared with reality, the lineup of small players in the game is not very crowded, but they do not suffer too much in rebounding.
For the Warriors or the Rockets in "NBA 2K18" who have the ability to resort to the "Five Deaths" "For the team, the emergence of more ball holding points and end points has made the offensive end's tactical arrangements and AI execution methods more open, while the requirements for the defensive end have increased accordingly. A very taboo thing in team ball games is to make players feel that they are being held back by stupid AI in defense, which greatly reduces the game experience. In order to quell this angry and unwise situation, 2K18 has refined the tactical layout from point to point, and designed corresponding countermeasures for the commonly used and possible tactical moves of the offensive side.
For example, if the pick-and-roll is a headache for the defender, the AI can be specially set up not to switch defenses, and then players with better height and defensive ability can be selected to adapt to the opponent's position, and use defensive predictions and higher interception success rates to disrupt the opponent's tactical deduction. . Unfortunately, responses like this require very detailed pre-war settings, and there is no special preset tactical extraction and saving function in online battles. Players must frequently open the tactical menu and repeatedly issue special instructions to each player. It is equivalent to memorizing the options you have set by rote. Once any link is not set up properly, you can only try and make mistakes in actual combat. This is an embarrassing flaw in the system setting function.
Let's hear what Ibaka said about the coach's ridiculous defensive arrangement
In general, the tactical options of "2K18" can meet the gaming needs of high-level players in terms of quantity and mutual restraint. , in 2K’s upcoming professional league, the rules of player teaming up 5V5 instead of 1V1 will be adopted. This also shows from the side that 2K is still advancing the game in the direction of simulating reality. As for whether this will slow down or even slow down the game. Suspension of more in-depth research on AI, we can only observe it from future new year products.
Although there is no qualitative change, the modeling is at least back to the average level of the series compared with the previous game
One feature of this year's new Nike jersey is the uneven density of the breathable mesh from top to bottom, which truly restores
whose youth in the game Whose dream - the classic team reaching the limit
Since the beginning of using almost half of the game to worship the god of basketball, the classic team has become a new topic in the 2K series every year. It has experienced ancient mythical beasts, black and white The duo and the Bulls dynasty, "2K18" continues to expand the scope of classic teams. Not only those teams that have won championships, but also teams that have stirred up topics in a specific period and have certain characteristics are all included in the development Group view. Moreover, the teams added in this game are all from after the 21st century. Not only are their playing styles closer to the contemporary basketball trend (at least they no longer have to let Malone chase Green all over the court), several of them are themselves popular players today. The pioneer of law, this kind of "Zero Prototype" V.S "evolved version" game is still very attractive to fans, and at the moment when the two major groups of fans and players born in the 90s are gradually overlapping, it belongs to their campus Youth basketball memories are also reproduced on the screen in the form of games.
The game reproduces the finals when the old boys refused to replace the old with the new.
The more representative classic teams in "2K18" include 01-02 New Jersey Nets, Kidd+ Carter+Jefferson The combination once regarded the court as an airstrip; the 06-07 Golden State Warriors performed a black eight miracle, led by bearded Baron Davis. Later, Curry also wore that uniform in his rookie season, old The bandit army under Nielsen can perfectly control the shooting system of 2K18; the Dallas Mavericks of the 10-11 season is the pinnacle of the life of a generation of old boys, especially fans of the King of Notre Dame, please be sure to collect it; the Thunder team of the 11-12 season , now young friends should have scolded enough, why not sit down and recall the glorious past.
The historical classic team uses a golden logo to represent the golden age.
In addition, this time "2K18" is very imaginative. It introduces the historical all-star team for the first time - gathering the strongest stars in the history of a team to form a team. , which can be regarded as a record of the panel value limit since the creation of the series - almost 99. Rose + Jordan, Yao Ming + Damn, Kobe + Magic and other combinations have completely turned the game into an NBA encyclopedia. For senior fans, the fun of browsing the list while commenting on the ability values and candidates will probably be higher than the game. itself.
Sports games Sometimes a team, or even the existence of a player, can make fans willing to spend money
MC and MT - still fun, even more deceiving
"Shock the neighborhood" is what 2K emphasizes in the MC mode of this game The reason why it is a new form rather than new content is that this mode actually integrates the previously independent career mode, amateur mixed game and street basketball mode, and then uses a real environment similar to a sandbox Street modeling replaces the original cold UI options, allowing players to stroll among various optional activities-play street ball, visit a shoe store, buy a sports lottery ticket or get a haircut. It really can’t be said to have a deep sense of immersion. In general, the process of pinching people, upgrading, acquiring skills, and updating equipment is still repeated. Of course, it also has to be shoehorned into the background of a coming-of-age story on the level of a vulgar web drama.
In a world full of commercial advertisements, the MC model can only describe the lives of players at the level of inspirational stories.
MC and MT models have long had similar advantages and problems. The advantage is that once the system of this model that focuses on development and management is perfected, it will be easier to keep players in the game for a long time, whether it is from a rookie to a superstar step by step, or to building a dream team of your own. Players are reluctant to leave before completing the set goals. But the question lies in how long this time can be, and how much "extra" revenue manufacturers can get from players during this period. Different from online games that have been operating for a long time, no matter how much effort and money players invest in sports New Year products, everything will be overturned with the new games in the following year. From a certain level, players who are exposed to this mode for the first time and become addicted to it are often the easiest. Taking off the guard is a good way to get krypton money, so these two modes to keep the series of games alive are still a bit like "cutting leeks".
MC mode that is reincarnated once a year
However, don’t think that experienced old players can escape 2K’s tricks. The VC points used to strengthen characters in MC mode are earned slowly and spent quickly, and the small business of the neighbors in the street You have to spend money to take care of everything in your business. If you just buy a few things, the points in your hand will be exhausted. At this time, if you encounter some online streetball players who are unbeatable and angry, you will inevitably spend 99 yuan to relieve your heart. The hatred; MT mode is the first time to adopt a salary cap setting similar to that in reality, but there is no "luxury tax". When the salary reaches the top, there is no room for gem cards, so players have to adjust and improve their team like a puzzle. , and pay more attention to strategy and gameplay during battles, instead of violently showing off wealth with "SSR".
For this reason, 2K continues to imitate the real-life star card sales strategy, launching different special card packages at different times of the season to constantly lure players to frequently change their lineups in a short period of time. In this way, one behind the other, one bright and one dark, two krypton gold The pit is there, and players will lose their focus if they are not careful. 2K will greet you after making money lying down: "Welcome to visit next time.""
If you must cheat Krypton, I hope that 2K can make the card surface beautiful enough in the future, the border is too lacking in design
Manager mode - a clever woman can make a meal without straw, but cannot serve a mentally retarded boss
Previously in the series The manager mode (MG), which has always been in the third line, has received a small-scale remake in "2K18". The production team has designed a complete set of career simulation tasks for our team engineers. As the team owner's chief mascot, players In order to let players get into the game as soon as possible, this mode uses a far-fetched story that is pieced together to destroy the Great Wall. The boss's requirements - including recruiting absolutely unreliable team cornerstones, junk contracts with nowhere to spend money, season goals that will be ruined when a rookie is seen, etc., as well as challenging player transaction success rates that constantly torture players. Mentally, it makes you feel that being a team manager is harder than those sycophantic clerks in the company.
Although 2K has also carefully prepared professional data information and processing tools for players, if you imagine "Moneyball". "The little fat guy Jonathan Hill in "Jonathan Hill" has a high IQ head in science and engineering, and uses strict technical statistics and data analysis to form a dark polo team from a group of third-line players, or imitate Al in "Sunday Showdown". ·Big brother Pacino made an impassioned pre-war mobilization in front of a group of muscular men. Sorry, No way! In this mode, which is clearly prepared for perfect data analysis, the player is still inexplicably required by the plot to become the boss's pawn. , although talking about contracts and life with players, dealing with the media's nonsense and other interactive content have restored some dignity as a general manager, it is still far from the upper limit of playability set by this position in the game
other teams. Managers usually only do one thing, and that is to reject your trade request
Using Carter, who is nearly 40 years old, as the cornerstone of the team is a requirement of many old players.
Of course, the production team itself understands football, and they have a deep understanding of the NBA. The contact with them is far deeper than that of players. This is the objective basis for them to do a good job in the manager mode in the future. The only contradiction may be that 2K has not yet discovered the krypton gold point of the MG mode, and the playability of the text adventure mode is weak. If it surpasses MC and MT, the player's boss in the game will be happy, but 2K's boss in real life may not look good. Finally, although the new year's goods are vulgar, I believe that 2K has made progress in this generation. There are many. Sometimes slow reconstruction may not achieve immediate results, but it is better than sitting on empty
