Admin Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 I have never played online before in any game but I was thinking about getting xbox live to play 2k8 online since beating the computer is getting pretty boring. So does anyone play and if so is it any fun? Do you play with the default settings for the game (camera, roster, settings, etc?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wurider05 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Hell yeah dude. I play at 5-6 games on xbox live a day. I always run with the Hawks. My gamertag is Father Murder X. Best basketball ever made. Send me a friend request and a message identifying yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Can you tell me how the settings thing works for online games? I won't be signing up for it until after the Hawks game tonight but I'll send you a request when I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wurider05 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 what exactly are referring to? online games are 5 minutes quarters you can go into online options and adjust your starting lineup or create scenario lineups. I am not sure what you are talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Well like the game speed, shooting tendencies, camera view, etc. Things that you would adjust with sliders. I hate how slow the game is on the default settings of (I think 50). I also don't like the default camera view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wurider05 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 You can change the camera angle to whatever you like. The setting on the sliders are set in stone no one can adjust them. They want to keep everything fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 That's understandable, I'm glad that they are set in stone, I just wish the default settings weren't so damn slow. It's rough to be the fast breaking Hawks and feel like you have Zaza dribbling up the court LOL. Thanks for letting me know about that stuff though, I will probably sign up tonight and play some.

Wurider05 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 What is your gamertag? Actually it isn't slow at all. Some guys can't believe that they are getting their ass whipped by the Hawks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Its Dolfan23 if that's the same name that I sign into xbox live with (even though I don't have a paid account). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpmm Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I play almost daily (3-4 games) my tag is KentATL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Okay so apparently because it's been 2 years since I created that account after 12 months of not using it online it can't be used for xbox live so I had to create a new account (with a 0 gamerscore ) and that is Dolfan23b. I going to try and play 2k8 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Alright so I just played my first game and it was fun although that crap with the opponent shaking the screen during FTs is pure BS. Somehow I missed every single FT that I attempted out of at least 15. Is that normal? That's enough to make me not want to play as that seems like school yard BS.

frosgrim Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Dolfan, I got an X-360 recently. I just picked up 2k8. I would be interested in trying the on-line thing. I am still getting used the controls, so I am prob not ready to play on-line yet. My gammer ID is Frosgrim. Maybe we can create a little HS league?

Admin Posted January 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I think that's a good idea. I have played about 6 games so far. The first 3 I won in blowouts. Then the next 3 I got blown out. It's pretty frustrating getting blown out but it's fun winning. My gamertag is Dolfan23b and I will add you tonight when I get home from work.

frosgrim Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Sounds good, I don't expect to be able to get online until around 8. Work, kids, wife all take up the early evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 No worries, I understand. Work, working on Hawksquawk, and losing my patience with the Hawks pretty much takes up all of my time now ... which is still better than the ex-wife LOL.
