No Demo For NBA 2K14

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

I don't care that they didn't release a demo, I'm sticking with current gen for the time being and this is the only sports game I will have. Plus from what ive seen the game-play looks really good. Those who are enraged over no demo release after all these years of NBA 2K, need help.

Getting next gen version. It's time to move on. Next gen better be a full game.

Re: Demo Tuesday?????

But they had time for a demo for gamescom. Dismissed.

LOL! You think that version at Gamescon would fly going through MS and Sony for approval? Ignorant.

Re: Demo Tuesday?????

I SO knew this was going to happen. The hyperbole in some of the reactions are priceless. Like you're REALLY surprised by this. How anyone expected there to be a demo is beyond me. They have NO time to "waste" on old-gen, let alone a demo. I say "waste" in quotes because based on the early responses, the gameplay was worked on. And also because some people do feel that next-gen needs to be their priority. But this thread, still has me in stitches! Please carry on. This is fun!

This is a weird thing to be snarky about.

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

Some of yall have super short memories. Not to be a fanboy, but the one game purchase I can count on every single year to be a quality game and to bring the realism, it's NBA 2K. AKA the demo is just icing. Could understand the frustration, but the overreaction ("omg worst game ever! even though I haven't even played it yet!") is menopausal. The gameplay could be the best thing you've ever experienced, better than floating on a magic rainbow, riding a unicorn, or humping Beyonce....and based on gameplay vids, it's pretty close to it. But gotta wait and see. IMO, the game has earned the benefit of the doubt so Ima give it to 'em.

Why not? When so many people with reasonable thoughts (not me - I stayed out of it) continue to try to warn others that a demo won't show up this year because of everything else on all of the developers' plate, yet they don't want to hear it - they shouldn't act like this is a surprise. Same goes for Live being on next-gen only: they don't have time for old and next gen. But I'm a jerk, so I get that. Sorry.

I don't know about you but I wanted the demo so I can get used to the new controls. I hate the fact that I have to RELEARN the controls AGAIN!

Yeah I hear you for sure on that. I'm just gonna use the fallback 2K13 setup

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

I'm surprised there's no demo...that said, I'm exicted what's around the corner. I want to see the NextGen "bread and butter!" Bring it....wow me! Inside of 2 monthes release...it's Go Time! (Insert Matrix Gif here) beyond my capabilities at moment.

Time To Go 2K! Are You Talking To Me?!? Bring It! Release the Kraken! Win One for the Gipper! There's No Crying In Baseball! Get off my plane! I'm Your Huckleberry. Make My Day! This Is Sparta! Wilson?!?

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

Unfortunately, there will not be a demo for NBA 2K14. Here is the official response.

When the games release and the boards flood with complaints and demands, please remember this thread and consider the state of the "sim" community. Take it all with a grain of salt, then call up DaCzar and see what he personally thinks about the issue. I just don't feel the boards represent the community as a whole very well any more. Just my 2 cents I'm out lol

I think they don't have an option for that....Aholbert mentioned that there were not options for controls....

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

I think reading through this thread gave me cancer.

Some of ya'll need to get a hold of yourselves. It's just a video game. Besides, it's as if you're all 10 and have been saving up for this game for a year. It's kind of sad, really.

What is the state that the sim community is in?

[The 24th Letter]

The sim community is fine.

It's just that it gets pretty crazy around here near release, and a lot of people have learned to steer clear....not sure why I haven't learned this yet, lol..

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

Why is everyone mad about no demo? not a big deal to me at least. Before you ask, yea im gonna be on current gen. But the only thing i could see wanting the demo for would be to learn controls, other than that, what could you really get from a 5min match. Its not like the majority of you aren't gonna buy the game if the demo isn't too your liking anyway. I say save the complaining for the true issues that will no doubt be in the 2k14, as well as some that can't be forseen
