God I wish they would fix the Knicks blue. It's so distracting, I don't even like playing against the Knicks because of it.

Said you were overreacting on the number of contested shots you said you viewed in the video , not the fact of 2k hitting all the tough shots like they did in 2k13 . Shots a saw in the video that Were missed would have been made last year . Not only with that but the fact the wide open players were missing shots . I just didn't see that much cheese that some of you're stating

If you play 2k13 with sim sliders you will miss some open shots, an hell lot more than what we saw in the video, and when I say open I mean good position/no one near or even corner shots.

Again, if this was played in default I could be OK with most of the shots as long as they had all online modes on sim.

Sliders for 3pts on sim are set at 47, they must have screwed up the sliders in this build/were playing default, I just can't imagine 50 3pt if this was on 47...

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

So now we have guys complaining about field goal percentage off of one game? Like teams haven't shot well from the floor no matter how good the defense was? And as far as the defender standing right in front of you and how that affects your shot...what kind of nonsense.....

Look, if you don't have a hand in someone's face then it's considered an open shot. If you jump late to contest it's considered an open shot. If the opponent has a clean look at the basket it's considered an open shot. Standing in front of someone not doing anything has never worked on any basketball player worth their salt, much less a pro basketball player unless they couldn't shoot in the first place.

Also, what would you guys be saying if neither of those guys could put the ball in the ocean? Would you be overreacting about the field goal percentage then? Or would you just be saying it's an anomaly and that it happens every once in a while?

Jeez. You can only grasp how the field goal percentage plays out over multiple games and especially not on 5 minute quarters. Overreaction Sports strikes again .

looked good. looked like 2k13 with some tweaks and improvements, which is what i hoped/expected. overall, player movement seems quicker, more responsive, and more explosive. controlling players looks like it will feel better than ever.

Maybe it's just the fact that we are 7-8 years into this console generation where it seems things are a bit stale.
Don't get me wrong the game does look really good, but maybe it's just a limitation of the hardware. Some animations looks slow to get into.
I'm wondering how much effort was put into the next gen version.
Also, games for the new systems have to be finished soon. I wonder if they are almost done with it?
I'm really excited to see what they have done with the new hardware and whether or not the next gen engine will be brought over to the PC right away.

Ok in Real Life if you have a nice range you have just as good of a chance as anybody else.

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

Also I think Ld2k was stringing ronnie along towards the end of the game, so as to keep people's attention. I think that's why ronnie shot 13/21 in the second half or something. They def wanted to keep it close because ld2k was dominating. But ld2k had a decent FG percentage with around 51% I think. Mostly because kobe shot 9/13 or something, ronnie didn't really know how to defend kobe at all.

And I have to have a word with ronnie, he's got the knicks and he's jacking up shots with felton and bargnani instead of melo? For shame!

but yeah, the on ball defense looks good, except when the ride animation is going, sometimes the defender misses the player he's guarding as a result of moving towards one direction too much. Contact looks good, those collision animations look solid. Also, they should just take away the self-oop, too many times in a fast break situation I wanted to lob it up to someone else only to get the dang self-oop animation.

Blocking looks better, that chandler block at the beginning of the game looked good. And I also didn't like that shump went for a windmill in traffic. I still did see some lead passes going through to the paint, but at least it's not as frequent as before.

Overall it looks good, but like a few in this thread, I'm going next gen for 2k14.

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

hmm old man Kaman got up too quickly after being up ended like that. I would've used that in pain animation after a missed layup....you guys know the one....2k should've used better context for that one....

love seeing all that contact inside...can't wait to create my defensive center again!

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

Im sorry, but the crowd reaction and player reaction to the game winner was terrible... I really hope this is addressed for next gen... I expect every person in the crowd with their hands up and jumping... and usually the bencb would be standing during final seconds.. with there hands on there heads after game winner... but all in all the crowd was terrible

Re: NBA 2K14 Video - New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

You know what's the saddest thing about todays live stream? When you realize that 2K has become the new EA in that they don't care what their customers want. Most of the time they don't even acknowledge our complaints.

There are so many problems in that video - from accessories being wrong, uniform colors being off and old player models being reused (Chandler, Stat), to things that actually affect gameplay - that have yet to be addressed after years of customers pleading with the company to do so.

2K11 was a great game and it was precisely because back then, 2K was in a fight with NBA Live for dominance in the bball video game market, but ever since Live went down, the 2K series has gotten lazy. Madden was better when they had the Gameday and NFL2K series pushing them, but when EA wrapped up the NFL license, that's when Madden went downhill and they've yet to recover. It's unfortunate the same is happening here.

I second this completely. The crowd seemed uninterested and showed no signs of improvement over recent years.
