    Re: NBA 2K14 Video - Path to Greatness Gameplay

    Still no sign of that 'branching a move to a jumpshot'. Is that really a thing or is it just literally just doing a crossover and shooting right after?

    I'am kinda anxious to see/read more about it because taking out escape dribble shots is a big thing.

      Sig dribbling was only animations... the dribble moves themselves were still determined by tendencies.

      2Ks biggest problem is that the dribble tendency ratings are jacked way up across the board, so when the player gets into a situation they end up doing extra dribble moves due to the tendencies being jacked really high.

      If they would just lower the dribble tendencies you would see less dribble moves being played out and you would see the CPU branch out of dribble moves to something else (cause when the CPU goes to look for something to do, it looks for the higher ratings, so if behind back is at 90, and pass out is 30, guess whats gonna happen first)

        Looks like they really improved how plays flow.

        e/ I really don't like how the AI still spam moves as it tryes to get to the rim.

        15.12 Great box out by Howard. I wish that was more consistent.

        15.30 Bounce pass looks like morph through the defender.
        That irks me too. As if the AI doesn't know that simple moves can also be effective.

          That makes sense. It would just be nice if there was more reading and reacting going on rather that the A.I. being driven by tendencies.

            This will mark the first time I've ever played with LeBron. I'm glad they went this route.

              Please release more Knicks gameplay so that people can see how awful the away uniform color is.

              On the bright side it is nice to see some CPU gameplay. There are still some clipping issues baseline but playcalling is overall smoother.

              One problem is the overwhelming amount of "fancy" dribbles when the CPU is driving but years of editing tendencies has taught me how to fix that.

                Man, this is so true lol. Imo, I find the couple of guys I see who never say anything negative and try to defend everything like they are apart of 2K a bit more annoying, but it's pretty close.

                  Curious if that Davkos(sp?) character was created with the 2k14 CAP system. If so, it looks like it might be improved because I don't think I've ever seen a decent looking white player cap in 2k13 (very hard to do imo)
                  EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

                      11:49 is the closest shot of him, but its a side profile view, he is #33 for the Mavericks.

                          Dude's name is Drakos, closest guy to him is Dimitrios Drakos from some EuroBasket league, but hasn't played in the EuroBasket league since 09-10. Who know? It looks like a CF, but I searched "Drakos" and there's nothing.

                          EDIT: 10:50, Dimitris Drakos.

                          AND the picture matches (i Think): http://basketball.eurobasket.com/pla...orfyras/130543

                          Weird thing that profile labels him as a 6'3" PG, and this is obviously a SF who is close to LeBron's height.

                            You can pause at about the 10:50 mark Marvin and they show him at the starting lineup screen in the middle.

                            My apologies if I got people's hopes up about an improved CAP mode. I never heard of the guy so I thought he was a created player which surprised me how well his face was done thinking it was a cap. Oh well......

                              Yeah, the edit shows who he is and where he's from. (Euroleague!)

                              Drako's storyline could be former Euroleague star turned in to Global icon, just like how AI has a "comeback" storyline. But who knows?

                                at the 12:50 mark when monta "swims" off the defender instead of getting stuck like what normally happens in 2K13. . .the plays ran through perfectly. . .less easy buckets in the paint. . .better pick & roll D

                                FANTASTIC!!!!
