Is 2k14 for Current Gen IMPROVED Enough to be a MUST BUY

[Agame]

Thank you to EVERYONE involved in NBA2k 14-- FUN

I posted this elsewhere -but fits here too

Pros:
• Teams Play True to Their Strengths– A.I. Much improved.
• Defensive in Post Huge Improvement
• Block Engine makes a measureable difference in the realism.
• Clark Kellogg can say “Physicality” an it’s the Truth. No boys in the paint.
• LeBron is a BEAST…..and he should be.
• Hibbert & Dwight in the paint on D– Beautiful
• Double Team the Greats or Get BEAT
• Help Defense is better
• Pick and Roll is better and is IN THE GAME
• 2k Smart Play
• Speed of players and the game seems right
• Spacing is better
• Pro Stick, Yes the Pro Stick
• They miss Open Shots-Yeah


Cons:

• Pro Stick, - Doh!- I keep pulling Left Trigger
• Need to tighten up players going out of bounds –still too often
• Spacing is better but not where it needs to be
• A.I. for Classic Teams: Not playing to Strengths like Current Teams
• Classic Teams stand around too much-(Current teams MOVE like they should)
• Rebounding & loose balls, Too much “Staring”- Get the Ball!
• Offensive and Defensive Awareness improved -Drastically- but still needs tuning- Need to React Quicker
• Need more baseline play
• The Game Play is a Drug—and I now have an Addiction.

If you're not planning on getting next gen, I would recommend picking it up...The game feels much smoother than 2k13 for me and 60 bucks isn't really breaking the bank. I will probably get next gen when nba2k15 comes out.

I did notice some glitches when editing the draft classes. For example, There was a shooting guard, 6'4 217 lbs and he had the body of a 300 pounder. I tried decreasing the weight and such, but his body stayed the same and even put holes in the jersey on certain weights.

I wanted to jump back in and say I have shifted views slightly.

Still won't go as far as saying MUST BUY, but I will say MUST TRY.

Watching videos of 2k14 vs 2k13 can make it appear that they a similar gameplay wise(especially if you have a good roster).

Playing NBA 2k14 v 2k13 is a pretty large jump IMO.

I will admit that a lot of the changes are subtle, but they do make a difference.

Also, do not let the Pro Stick discourage you, I had serious resevations after reading about it, but playing with it has made me a believer(although I still hit L2 way too often). When you work it right, I can't imagine a more intuitive way to play the game.

60 bucks for a dlc+ patch that they should've put out last year?

If you are planning on getting next gen console right away, then save your money and just get the next gen game. However, if you don't plan to get the next gen consoles for at least 3+ months, then I say get 2k14.

After playing my copy of 2k 14 today I must say that the people saying its the same or that its not good, need to get their head checked.its def not the same and its by far the best 2k yet

[cam21224]

By far the best game play from 2k this console generation.


Only cons so far

. Not being able to choose which hand to layup with.

. 2ks roster of course.
