NBA 2K14 - Next Gen Reveal Trailer

[Sundown]

Looks fantastic-- maybe not quite as next gen, rendering and technology wise-- much of what we saw can be done decently on current hardware, but there's seems to be a major effort to improve the art assets on all fronts.

Lighting looks good though could be improved to look a little less washed out. Reflections on Ray and Kobe look fantastic, best since we lost the sweat effects from 2k11.

If you're not impressed with that then there's simply no impressing you. Simple as that. The graphical leap is amazing. Look how real guys look. If the game plays like NBA 2k has played the past few years, that plus these graphics... wow.

Couldn't have said it better myself. If someone says their jaw didn't hit the floor while watching that, they're lying

Re: NBA 2K14 - Next Gen Reveal Trailer

I'll probably get this on the PS3 then get the next gen version on the Xbox One. Graphics look dope, can't believe it's pre-alpha, wow.

Re: NBA 2K14 - Next Gen Reveal Trailer

this games looks amazing in motion as usual and the graphics leaves u with ur mouth open

but is it enough? not for me anymore i dont wanna watch a video game i wanna play, and to be honest i haven't played an nba 2k basketball game for a while now,it feels scripted and the control is disastrous to the point i dont feel like am in control

the response time between controller input and reaction on screens is frustrating most of the times as in many situations where the passer and the receiver is very close but to get both animations to line up the passer hesitates or a longer drawn out animation plays out to compensate for time needed for animations to line up.

defense in the paint is non existent and ice sliding around is rampant and unrealistic.online has never been a reliable feature and is feasted with players willing enough to take advantage of broken game play mechanics

i don't play association or my player but this game is more tailored for u guys who plays alone against the CPU..but for a guy like me that plays human opponents this game doesn't work as good on that front...too many AI assistance and it feels like constant intervention by the AI as if it is trying to regulate games to seem competitive even when both players aren't even close in skills and 2k know how


now don't get me wrong am just being critical about this cause i love 2k for all the hard work VC it puts in year after year and this video gets me hyped up as any one of u guys around here, but am just worried that with all that visual improvements and obvious smoother animations that we will end up with a game that is plagued by hiccups and frustrations as it has for me based in history for the last few IP

You hit the nail on the head, if these issues are fixed with the graphical leap, 2k14 can take my money. If the sliding, defense in the paint and input response, man I can't even think what type of game that would be.


Oh Just in case some of you missed this old news. About 2k14 release date on Next Gen consoles
"2K Sports Senior VP of Basketball Operations Jason Argent confirmed their availability and said, “We will be day and date launch titles for both of those platforms."

And no Wii U version.

It all hinges on if they are able to add real-time physics and a more "realistic" animation system with the more powerful next-gen hardware. I'm really, really hoping so or I'll be a bit disappointed.

Are we ready for real time physics ? I imagine it would be EXTREMELY frustrating, just look at how the ball bouncing off the heels of opponents messes up fast breaks.

EDIT : But then again, it would cut down on the paint cheese where players are splitting double teams at will, the ball is out of their hands but the game still recognizes it in their possession. It would solve abusing lead passing as well.

I agree, but when you say real time physics do you mean something like Madden's infinity engine? Or backbreaker?

Does anyone know if pre-ordering the PS4 NBA2K14 will also come with the current gen pre order bonuses?

Re: NBA 2K14 - Next Gen Reveal Trailer

Show us graphically how this game is not a big leap from last gen...

[siraulo23]

Re: NBA 2K14 - Next Gen Reveal Trailer

to those who arent impressed i dunno what to say,

the graphical leap is enough to be very excited, have u seen all 'next gen' game trailers? not many at least to me looks next gen, this 2k14 footage i can consider as a next gen game, so obviously it's hard not go get excited

new player models, signature running? i mean the way kobe was sprinting back thats close to how he does it irl, it looks like the standard jog is still there but its ok

i cant believe people are saying devs dont put enough effort because consumers are too easy to convinced to pay for the game, 2k devs for 2k games have been putting out pretty decent to great bball games, it's not like 2k13 was so bad that we cant get excited for a 2k14 video showing great graphics

2k14 is gonna be decent gameplay wise, based on the history of 2k games, i trust them theyve been putting out games that are very enjoyable or at least playable for some with high standards

Re: NBA 2K14 - Next Gen Reveal Trailer

I'm trying hard to keep to my threat of...

"No defense, no buy".

This might be the first year that I early adopt to a new system (XB1).

Is it me or does his mouth look like it's more than 50% of his face towards the end of the video?
