NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
Ronnie2K (New York Knicks) and LD2K (Los Angeles Lakers) played a full game of NBA 2K14 earlier today. If you missed the stream you can view it in the embedded video above, over at DmanUnt2014's YouTube page or click here to view it on Twitch. The game was played on Superstar/Sim.Tags: None -
Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
I like the gameplay, but kinda dissapointed by the presentation. It's exactly the same as last year, just some difference clips and colors. Same with the scoreboard, halftime show and teasers between the games: same as last year, just different graphics.
I'm guessing it's because next gen is gonna blow us away presentation-wise, that's why they don't want to do a full blown cool presentation on current gen. At least, that's what I would've done if I had the companyWhat we know so far about NBA 2K14 - FAQ/QA:

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
At this point I can say with 90% certain that I wont be buying it for the PS3. I may buy it for next gen or PC though.
They added a lot of contact animations, but contact in the paint could be somewhat OK in 2k13 with the right sliders(you can adjust layup,inside and dunk in traffic). The biggest improvement is really the blocking.
Shooting and spacing seem better making 3's OVERPOWERED because from what we've seen On-ball D doesn't seem to affect that much(JIMEEEEER RANGE). We can't just expect, in an animation driven game, to lockdown the 3PT line, even in the real nba guys are left open(or semi-open) a lot of the time we just can't guard players much further.
I just hope they messed up when they told us it was on SIM sliders because even in default setting's too many shot's went in.
What we can expect is online/MyTeam game modes to be awful where the Curry family will still rule the game (even more than now, if the paint D is improved), that's why I can't see myself getting the game on PS3. It just looks too much the same and still flawed.
IF they at least made the shooting a bit more penalizing(in real nba a shoot, unless it's a corner 3, is not a good play it's settling for the easy option), and fixed some paint passed this could be a good game.
The biggest question mark here is: we still haven't seen the ZONES.Comment

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
Welp I thought I was more of a gameplay guy then a graphics guy but I couldnt even get through the entire video due to that horrible blue color they have for the Knicks jerseys, I hope and pray that next gen they get the colors right for jerseys great graphics with off colored jerseys wont cut it.Comment

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
thank you for posting i missed. it. i'm almost halfway through the video and the gameplay looks great thus far. And i was very skeptical on how the game would play this year.
Why so many shots of ronnie and chris though? lol"I just wanna be heaaaaaaaaard"Comment

I'd love to see what the zones look like, especially the 1-3-1.
If that Shookya crap is still in there then I'll be skipping 2k this year.Comment

Looks like 2K13 but gameplay seems better, 2K is still using that same Nick Young from 2K12, SMH.Last edited by keshunleon; 09-06-2013, 04:39 PM.True bout my business, Mane!Comment

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
I'll say my overall review from what ive seen in this video. I never thought that graphics would bother me so much, But they do. The player models are fine and all, but i would like to have seen a difference in the timeout hub and scoreboard other than just color. But that stuff is still minor to me.
Based on gameplay:
3's fell to easily-(not all those 3's were wide open, some were long 3's and had defenders in front of them, and though the defender wouldn't contest, guys in the nba still don't shoot 3's like that with defenders in front of them)
post game still looks basic- but whatever i'll deal with that i guess
animations looked much improved- so now offensive players can't create space for shots just by getting your defender stuck in a weird animation
Shot animations look smoother- this bullet point speaks for itself
contact in the paint has me on the fence- its easier to block layups and dunks now, theres no more unstopable dunk or layup animations, but the ball still seems to enter the post a little to easily which leads me to my next point
Passing- its faster, its harder to pick off, but it still enters the post a little to easily
shots still seem to fall at a high rate- Both these guys ended with 50% plus fg%, and they both shot close to 50 from 3 if im not mistaken, the biggest problem ive had with this game is the ridiculously high fg% at the end of games, even on sim you can still end with a team fg% of above 50 on a consistent basis. Some times you just have good games but you shouldn't on a nightly basis end a game with over 45% from the field as a team. I believe denver led the league in fg% last year and averaged 47%. While most teams on average have about 44-45%.
These improvements and criticisms are from just one game, so i don't know if this stuff will be the norm or not, so i can't tell till i play the game on a regular basis for myself. But if this is what we do have to look forward to, theres about a 50/50 chacne i'll get it.Last edited by OkayC; 09-06-2013, 04:34 PM.Lakers

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
i was like ahhhh... specially when felton did that self alley oop... please remove it from the game if you really want to consider yourself SIM 2k...
i could just say "oh they were not playing d or blah blha" but nah i dont like it... in previous 2k you did not hit that many 3s when someone was close unless you had a good shooter... so Wesley Johnson and Farmar shooting 3s nah i aint buying it.
Will get it for PC cheaper and try to customize it... if is any good and i can actually play D or if a patch is dropped might get it for current gen or just wait for the next gen that will be around the cornerComment

You can see the Heat play on one of their 50% night's, it's either a drive/a corner 3 or free-throw line jumpers. Spurs and Warriors do it with the flow of the offense and running off picks.
A team that relies heavily on jump shot's will hit a FG of 36-44% (layups and dunks increasing the FG%, else it could be 33-35%).
What we saw was a walk up to the 3PT line pass the ball around the perimeter and shoot, with no movement, no drives, etc.
IF a player can hit 50%+ while playing no offense-whatsoever, specially on sim, I can say this title won't be any good. I don't care if they didn't contest every shot, a player was always close, and that's what happens in the nba most of the time. They only contest really hard when a guy is hot.
It's a rule, let them shoot jumpers, stop the drives.
I guess what I want to say is that without drives/inside out/screens/good ball movement we shouldn't be able to shoot much more that 30-35%.Comment
