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

Didn't you know? Without a demo, folks are just going to skip to next-gen.... Which won't have demo's either. But what does that matter?

What is the state that the sim community is in?

Maybe i shouldnt have said sim community, but . think most know what i mean. As suggested i usually just avoid the boardds especially at release time. But im itcjing for info lol. Let me get my next gen info, rosters and slidders. And im out....peace.

By the way, no disrespect to you, you seem to represent well. I even respect your opinions on flashy passes. Your thoughts seemed genuine that type of feedback is always good even when oppinions vary. But I'm no authority either but as an OS old timer its just not the same.......kids today! Lol
just had a few SMH moments reading this thread lol...sorry for coming off condescending

The only bad thing I see with releasing no demo is that we have to learn controls on day 1 vs a week in advance. Demos never really convince me anything since they are pre-gold old builds and obviously wouldn't have the fine tune and tweaks of the game. Pre-Release Demos are a option, not a requirement, and 2K for this year chose to leave the option out, no biggie, it's cause we are in the transitional phase of CG to NG. They are probably using the current gen as the demo for Next gen.

I was wondering if there will be an PS3 to PS4 discount upgrade for NBA 2K14 in the U.S.A? I will get both if there is, if not i'm only getting one.

WTF. I know 2K14 will be great for the Next-Gen, but I need a demo to compare Live 14 and 2K14. There's no way I'm buying both games to try them out, nor do I wan't to pay to rent a game just for testing purposes. Hopefully this announcement is just about Current-Gen games.

I wonder how demos will work with the Next-Gen consoles. Most games will release when the consoles are released. So will there be demos ready to download by then?

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

It's a tough position for 2K this year. They know CG 2K14 isn't anything special and they clearly didn't spend too much time on it. Can't fault them since NG 2K14 is the new direction of the company while CG 2K14 is merely a placeholder for those who either haven't gotten a NG system yet or want to play 2K before their NG system arrives. But make no mistake, it's a placeholder.

But I'll say this - they've put themselves in a difficult position. Due to the consumer knowing CG 2K14 is a rebranded 2K13, the expectations for NG 2K14 are rightfully through the roof.

If they fail to deliver on those lofty expectations, they run the risk of losing a lot of faithful customers.

Those expecting a demo should have seen this coming - demos are done by companies who believe their game is truly an improvement and something to be seen/tested. It's done by companies who are proud of their product and want the consumer to see for themselves. Their PR team can spin it any way they want (and some will buy the drivel) but make no mistake, they don't want people to "test" 2K14 out on CG.

You my friend shouldnt be allowed to speak. You are passing your opinion off as if its a fact. 2K has spent just as much time on this years game as last years game. There isnt a demo because NG is a whole new monster and there isnt time.

If you think 2K isnt proud of every basketball title they put out then either NBA2K14 will be the first Basketball game you would have played or you are just trolling.

No kidding! People think "Oh 2K is doing a game for both Gens? That MUST mean that current gen is 2K13.5."

2K14 is going to have the best gameplay to date. Yea the game modes havent changed much but who cares. If the gameplay is awesome then I dont mind playing MyCareer or Association with minimal changes.

Re: No Demo For NBA 2K14

This thread is epic. The claims of treachery, the conspiracy theories, etc. Just awesome.

But yeah, it sucks that there is no demo. Granted, I haven't even been following that closely and didn't realize that the game was coming out next week.

On a sidenote to those who are super ultra hyped for a next gen version: temper your expectations. Its the first release on a brand new engine (or atleast, a modified version of the current one) and it will have plenty of hiccups that will probably need another year to be ironed out. But damn, does it looks sexy. I think I'll be waiting till next year when they've had more time with it.
