This isn't the impressions thread. If you don't have anything to say in relation to the title update then don't post. Especially if you haven't played the damn game.

First and only warning.

Looking forward to seeing what the coming updates will bring.

Hopefully the Kings court will be one of the early updates. Still not right.

Seeing graphics and animations being mentioned sounds promising.

Great information and very imformative. Glad they followed through with this and hopefully they'll continue to add updates to the game throughout its cycle to pave the way for 15 to be that much better.

I think the Nba Live team should show a before/after comparison when they do a technology update to improve the graphics and animations.

Especially with the face scanning, I hope they do detailed blogs (a list) of the visual changes per team. Though honestly id be pretty happy with the game in general if they added more shot animations around the basket and increased contact in the paint.

We’ve tuned shooting so that nailing the timing for a jump shot is a bit easier

Shooting definitely feels easier offline. I can't speak for online, as I haven't tried an online game since the patch.

I'd still like to see less of a penalty for far-away shot contests, as well as shot contests from smaller players.

Regardless of height advantage or contest quality, it seems like if a defender is anywhere in the vicinity of the shot animation with his hand is up, you will generally miss the shot.

as well as cutting down the number of blocked jumpers on the perimeter.

I am still seeing a ton of blocks, including off jump shots.

Mainly because the CPU still has the tendency of throwing the ball into the post, holding the ball for a while, then squaring up to try a quick jump shot. Those situations are basically an automatic block every time.

Last game I played, the CPU Nuggets kept isolating Faried in the post against Cousins. CPU Faried would hold it for a while, then take the square up jumper, and he got blocked about 5 times in the game by Cousins.

Ugh..

Wish I could say the patch improvements were as noticeable me as far as gameplay is concerned...I was pretty pumped about firing this bad boy up after hearing about all the improvements but I have to say I am a little disappointed...is there a sure fire way to tell of you have the patch?

They still haven't fixed the fact that the CPU doesn't react to your position...I took my SG completely off his man to guard the paint knowing good and well they wouldn't pass it to the open man, lol

I'm amazed people paid $60 to be beta testers.

I amazed people still care. No one should have to defend their purchase. If people are enjoying the game, then let them be. I honestly do not understand why this is so hard.

With all due respect man that post was a good bit back, no need to even bring it back into the discussion...just let comments like that die....

Yeah blocking definitely still needs some more tweaking, as I just finished a game with 20 blocks between the two teams. Tony Parker had 4 of those blocks.



Defenders in this game possess superhuman ball tracking ability, and the speed of the blocking animations is just way faster than most of the game's passing and shooting animations.

is there a sure fire way to tell of you have the patch?

On PS4, go to the dashboard and highlight the NBA Live 14 tile icon.

Press the options button, then select update history.

It should be on version 1.03 if you're up to date.

I'm having a totally opposite exp. if I pull my PG/SG to go double down in the post the CPU will kick it back out to the open shooter damn near every time. I'm forced to play honest D or the CPU will/has adjusted accordingly

Re: NBA Live 14 Title Update Details

maybe there werent that many glaring issues to fix? the biggest complaints ive seen about this game are the graphics and animations. so they have laid the groundwork for updating those.

Riiight. Hopstep cheese. For starters.

Since you haven't played the retail version while the rest of us have, you probably shouldn't knock it. The game is vastly different than the demo. Why would I believe them now? Probably because they're following through with exactly what they said they would.

This game is far from the game that released with the poor reviews. If you can find a way to borrow the retail, you probably should. No hype, just a good, fun basketball game.

They really should update the demo then if that's actually true. Is the demo a whole different download? I was under the impression that next gen free play games are often the whole game but just need to be unlocked.

I agree I bought nba 2k14 at first and after a month of playing it and seeing all the issues and things that's have changed I was disappointed and just traded it in today for live 14, it's completely different from 2K in a good way they put more detail into the little things that 2K didn't and all live has to do is fix the graphics a little bit and make the game. More smoother. The only gripe I have with live is that in the create your superstar mode thing you can't select your shot form other than that it's a good game

Don't know if you fellas have noticed or not, but it seems as if there is some new lighting introduced with the patch. Either that, or player textures have been enhanced. I'm going to post some screens in a few. Or maybe it's going a week without getting to play.
