The problem that annual sports games face is how to get players to buy another installment year after year. You don’t want to risk alienating longtime fans by changing too much. But you also need to improve the overall experience enough to warrant the purchase. The developers of NBA 2K19 have taken the approach of subtly refining the gameplay.
Game
Visual Concepts has produced the best and most realistic basketball games in recent years. With NBA 2K19, the developers have almost perfectly balanced the offensive and defensive side of the game.
Defending is no longer as easy as manipulating an opposing player. Now you need to carefully manage your stamina and choose when to strike so that you have the best opportunity to win the ball back. All players have a weight that makes them feel more authentic. This ensures that when pushing and stealing, collisions have a real impact.
Acquisition meter
One of the new additions is an acquisition meter. This adds a new dynamic to gameplay by changing a player’s morale and form. Those who are playing well and scoring all their shots will receive some extra power ups.
However, if you are blowing cold, you may be affected by a type of capture that reduces your chances of hitting the net or successfully executing that block. Get into the flow of a game and famous players can suddenly become much more powerful, replicating real-world moments when players can grab a game and change the momentum for themselves.
