NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

We can only hope and as I said before the crowd noise has always been an issue in 2k games. Baseball, hockey and basketball. It was good in NFL 2K5 and APF2K8 but i'm not sure why they can't seem to get it right on the current games. Having a smart crowd would sure add to the atmosphere of the game. It would nice to have it so loud in opposing arenas that it affects how you play. Maybe one day.

Crowd atmosphere would make the game so much better, they should take a note from their College 2k8 game and maybe use that as a starting point. Had that 6th man crowd effect going, something similar would be a good start except on a NBA level.

gameplay looks decent has few flaws and more to come when i buy the game for sure i see but just curious.......has anyone notice that on every 2k that whenever you go against a team they show highlight reels for both teams as a intro but, its just only the team your going up against right now than other teams for example on the video from where it starts 0:00 to 0:13....just lakers and knicks highlights not lakers and knicks hightlights of going against other teams like heat, bulls, celtics, etc..... just wondering if anybody notice that and maybe their was less complaints about tht.

I've always hated that, little thing but still a little annoying. I just put in my mind that its from a previous game last year when the two teams played. They could actually get rid of it and do some player intro's, show more players warming up, show the crowd..whatever.

And a lol thing to notice about the Kobe GW , the refs reviewed the play and the score didn't even change . So that's prob the resason why the fans did react because it was triggered . Just an idea

Liked the paint contact. Don't like the full court passes, and the generic dribbling.

It's very noticeable. But it's that or have all of the art and assets for every team loaded in the game. That's a huge waste.

Oh and Bargnani got 5+ REB. Career high ? lol He is a career 5.7 per 36

Coach Woodson has instilled a defensive rebounding mentallity in Bargnani and he will play well after checking out in Toronto.

This game looks amazing.

IMO The meat and potatoes of the gameplay is damn near fantastic. Sure there are a few things to tweak here and there, but the added collisions and the more seamless way to come in and out of contact; Opens the game up and adds new much needed wrinkles to the gameplay when offense and defense interacts.

Despite Ronnie's mockery of my Knicks in videogame form. I was able to take out of it everything i need to know in terms of contact in the paint and defense.
I was actually rooting for my Knicks at the end of the game.

He's a 7 footer and 1st pick, rebounding will come with experience and NBA body right ? That's what Toronto fans had been wishing for years !(I wasn't moking the game, but when I see bargs rebounding I can't help myself)

Well it's not life or death, it's a video game, so it's pretty easy to be optimistic about something like this. I wish more folks felt this way, then there would be less whining about something that they don't own yet.

I think I would actually prefer to read anything as opposed to reading you complain about complainers to tenth post in a row. You should take your advice and give it a rest. It's not life or death, so someone voicing their personal concerns that aren't in line with yours over a video game should not emotionally affect you to this extent. Reading through this board at times gives me the impression it's owned by Kim Jong Un. No dissenting opinions allowed.


For the love of all that is holy, give it a break.

Minus online and my player which are the most played. I liked some of the new animations but the only gameplay enhancement I noticed is like someone stated earlier the animations that create space is gone from what I've seen, better contests in the paint I guess, and It seems as though you can stay in front of your man better even though I wouldnt say these guys d is on point.....there were few instances.

There were just not enough positives to convince me to buy. I doubt there will be much of a change hands on but of course we'll try the demo as the last test.

All in all I been playing nba 2k since inside drive but this game is just getting to clunky and sloppy to me. It doesnt look real enough to me and im not talking about graphics. Hopefully next gen will look and move different but Im really not seeing it looking much different than for what it is now.

Yes but in My Player it's not a problem since you can control it, and the CPU doesn't throw up an unrealistic number of 3's and make them.

If you are playing online and 3 point shooting is a problem in this regard then you are probably shooting too many 3's per game and a quick game player who is just there to have fun and realism isn't the biggest concern anyway.

I wish they would have shown the 'manuals escape dribbles' if I can call it that. Branching a move with a jumper. We're yet to see it.

Is there a gameplay dev insight coming?

It is too bad that they also did not show how their teams cpu-contolled players branch into different sets within the play-calling system.

Lots of little things could have been highlighted in this video instead of focusing on Steve Nash arguing referee calls or Coach antics on the sidelines.

Any number of in-depth insights would be very welcomed in the following weeks. As others, I missed those from a few years back. They are much more welcomed then the current marketing scheme with guys on utube.

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

Better Qs, is there any indepth insight comming ? Do they want to go the uncertainty of Maddens route ?

While I can appreciate enough to make me want to buy 2k14 CG (at least had I not had my PS3 damaged for good and had I not had money limitations that made me decide to only go NG), the untrainned eye of the majority (primary on OS but you could tell the same of casuals by looking at most comments of the youtoubers and other sites) is clearly not noticing the effort that was put in to make this game way more than a 2k13.5.

So, it is extremely confusing and irrational how things are been handled, I mean, while 2K would still be the sole ruler of CG NBA videogames (no competition, at all), they are severely risking how they do on sales by not propperly showcasing CG, more than a few, upgrades/fixes/additions.

How come havent we seen any "indepth" (like they used to be pre 2k12) insights ? How come havent we seen any videos with highlights of many blocked dunks ? Of the new man to man cover ? Of the (rolling instead of ball handler) defense ? Of the new fancy passes ? Of the new controls ? Of the new (brought backs too) modes ? Of a true sim vs sim gamers gameplay video ? Comparison videos of 2k13 vs 2k14 ?

If even us, sim ballers and hardcore are doubtfull (yet I am not, but I recognize I am within the minority) of CG 2K14 not been worth the buy, one can educately guess, casuals are even more. All of the above things that they used to do at some point accomplish clear goals and target specific markets.

There are certaintly 3 weeks left for the game to release and for the company to bombard us with lots of info, then again, given the unique conditions surrounding this itineration, I cant but to blame the marketing strategy rather than devs doings (or lack of it) or new consoles launch, if sales experience a drop. Hopefully that doesnt happen and 2K keep getting in a better financial position due to yet again, improved earnings (so they can invest more on the game, on us, like better servers, hire more devs and raise their pay, better engine, etc) ... for now, hope they do deliver indepth info of both CG & NG.
