New Takeover Feature

A brand new feature: Takeover. Unlock special moves and skills that no-one has ever unfolded on the court before. There is also an option to activate Team Takeover thanks to which your entire team will hit peaks of their abilities.

Smart Switch Module

The brand new AI module called Smart Switch allows it to recognize on the ball-screen and switch it on. In the next move AI is capable of evaluating if there was a mismatch of screener or ball-handler. In case of a switch with no mismatch, the previous play is continued. AI is that smart! What is more, this feature is not only available for AI but also for users, who can trigger it – it can be done automatically. No button is needed to be pressed. Users of the game choose their worst defensive player and then can try forcing a switch. This can help take advantage on the court with a mismatch.

Double Team Reaction Module Revisited

This module has been rewritten from scratch and now AI is looking forward to the double team. The animation does not need to be triggered for AI to recognize that a double team motion has taken place.

Improved Attack and Relief Module

Another improvement on the AI side. Now the AI is not taking every open drive chance that arises. Sometimes, it will pass on it and continue in the current action. However, the AI can still decide at any point to take an open drive during the attack stage, but whether it does it or not is determined by the coaching pace as well as preferences for drive of specific players.

Improved AI Distribution of Play Among Players

Developers of the game decided to vastly improve the distribution of the play among players calculated by AI.In previous versions users were complaining that AI sometimes chose repeated players very often. In the 2k19 version the logic behind AI game distribution was reinvented and thus distribution of the play among players on the court is more even.
