NFL 2K1 (DC) Interview

7/10/00
PAGE 2

9) How has the AI been improved?

    The better question may be "What has not been improved in the AI?" :>) Seriously, we have spent a great deal of time refining the AI from last year. Some of the main aspects that have changed are; the entire running game, blocking, and defensive back behaviors.

10) Will there be more minor injuries?

    We have not added any new injuries yet, we'll see what time allows.

11) What new gameplay modes are there?

    Franchise mode, Network mode.

12) Will users be able to view highlights from other plays around the league during half-time?

    We may try to implement this if time allows.

13) Having a replay challenge feature would be very tough as it would require the computer to make some wrong calls every now and then. Will NFL 2K1 have replay challenge?

    We all talked about this and decided that it could really take some of the fun out of the game. We felt that if we put this in the game, people will be reviewing every play that a penalty occurs in instant replay before they decide to challenge or not.

14) What type of graphical improvements will there be?

    We have completely revamped our player model. The players look more "rounded" this year and the textures that make up the model are much higher resolution.

15) Will there be team-specific playbooks?

    Yes, as I stated above.

16) Will there be more statistics tracking?

17) Will LBs be able to fake blitz and drop into coverage?

    Yes. This feature has been added to 2K1.

18) What will make gamers want NFL 2K1 versus NFL Gameday 2001 and Madden 2001 for the PlayStation 2?

    On line play is a really big bonus for NFL2K1, but I really think the gameplay in 2K1 will speak for itself. The game has only gotten better since last year. We have had a whole year to really enhance 2K1, everything from how it controls to all of the new added animations will really make this game stand above the competition.

We would like to thank Jeff Thomas as well as Cliff O'Neill for their part in the interview.
