Some of the new features we’ve added to achieve this new level of emotion include player rhythms, personality badges, game significance, player reactions and behaviors. Here is a deeper look into NBA 2K14’s emotion and how we are advancing the game of basketball like never before.

    This game is INCREDIBLE. It "feels" so much better than last-gen I can't put it into words. You can react quicker to loose balls and everything. I don't know if that's due to the framerate but it's wat more "twitchy" now (which is a good thing).

            ok what does rhythm mean b/c they are throwing that word around very loosely. Is it a new rating or a substitute word for ratings boosts and if ratings boosts what particular ratings are being boosted?

            Either way this is a nice touch to the game and we now can confirm that it is a new momentum system, I just hope it doesnt turn out to be cheesy as we all would hope.

                  DOPE!!!!!!!!
                  Playing NBA 2K feels like a job that pays minimum wage and then cuts your pay when you get your Bill's right to make it even harder to succeed. I do not like this game but it's the only one in town.

                  At cheese, I'm trash. At basketball, I'm great!

                    Al Jefferson is a mentor? Don't think so

                    Kemba should be heart and soul

                        I LOVE it. If it works as described, this can be a game changer.

                            Jerson,

                            I must admit you guys used some examples from the original signature skills thread and just went H.A.M. I am glad you guys are reading this board because I know some of the input is getting put in what the community requested. I know I put down the Mentor, Streaky, Volume shooter, Enforcer and the Mind Games one. I didn't call it mind games but I called it the Trash talker lol. Stern probably wasn't approving of Trash talker anyway. I definitely remember the Sparkplug.

                            If you can tell us the correlation for Rhythm to ratings? Probably too detailed but good looking anyway. This game is sick though

                              Going deeper in feature, we also take into account the context and significance of a particular game to a given player or the team as a whole. These can have an impact on how players could potentially perform for that game.

                              Hometown Games: Playing an Away game in a player’s hometown. Commentary will also point out these games to clue you in on whose homecoming game it is.

                              Visiting Old Teams: Playing against an old team whom a player has a history with. James Harden playing back against Oklahoma is a good example.

                              Rivalry Games – Some rivalries stand the test of time and some fizzle out. Players can get in Rhythm earlier during these matchups.

                              Games against Power Teams – Some teams tend to elevate their game when up against powerhouses.

                              Playoff Ramification Games – All games matter, but it definitely matters more when a playoff spot is on the line.
