NBA 2K14 Hands-On Impressions and Q&A (PS3)

Re: NBA 2K14 Hands-On Impressions and Q&A (PS3)

Double team is triggered by L1 but I dont think you can select who doubles. Its usually the person closest to the player with the ball.

What I meant by 3-4 fouls is 3-4 fouls per quarter for each team. Like I said, its not bad but teams dont go into the bonus enough for me. At 95, I expect some quarters where there are 7-8 team fouls in a quarter.

Cant run the association until later this week. My next two days are booked with my birthday coming up.

This is a buzz kill, I mean come on 2k, you had the option of choosing to double team in the previous games and now you take it out, I mean for what? were people complaining? I mean this is basic basketball strategy. You want to double Lebron on the wing but the AI(CPU) picks the defender guarding Mike Miller (because he's closet) and leaves him open for a wide open three... Sometimes I wonder if the guys who develop the game's AI know anything about the strategic part of basketball..

Enough ranting just got a quick question:

Does the CPU guard the pick and roll differently if you are running it every single time and getting positive results? For example, If I use the pick and roll quick hitter for D-rose and I get to the basket on 5 straight possessions on the 6th possession will the CPU double team me?

I'm fairly certain what the answer to this is, but has there been any new changes to simming games in Association (i.e. can we intervene in games now)??

I got a question

Have you tried playing with a team like the bulls and then with a team like the lakers? Id like to know if the difference in defensive strategy exists. Do the bulls just physically play you from 20 feet and in, do the lakers look lost, do the heat utilize their deadly wing combo of wade and lebron to attack with help defense?

Speaking of the bulls, something that has bothered me as a bulls fan....does rose have a hoodini layup package? Or is there like a tendency set for dunks vs layups. Have they added any new layup packages?

Something ive always wanted them to do is create your own layup package similar to how you can choose different dunk packages...

2K doesnt have the rights to Madison Square Garden thats why they havent updated the art for the arena.

Thanks for the info aholbert!! Glad to hear cpu ai is continuing to evolve!

Curious - Is the postgame "game reel" highlight package back? (If you are unfamiliar with it, it is similar to the "Player of Game" presentation, but more of a game summary highlight package). This was one of my favorite features that im hoping was on a one year hiatus. Thanks.

I'm not talking about the court art. I'm talking about the actual structure of the arena. You dont need a license to recreate the structure of an arena. 2k hasnt had the license for years but it still uses the old version of the arena.

Re: NBA 2K14 Hands-On Impressions and Q&A (PS3)

I have a few questions

Can you still shoot with the square button(PS3) or is the shot stick the only way to shoot now?

Are the Warriors yellow sleeved jerseys in?

What are Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes 3pt ratings?

What are Nemanja Nedovic and Harrison Barnes dunk ratings?

Thanks in advance!

Are Up-and-Unders still easy to pull off and hard to be stopped by the defense?

For what its worth, when I had my time with the game, they are still easy to do, its just that there is ALOT more contact when a defender is in position.

Re: NBA 2K14 Hands-On Impressions and Q&A (PS3)

I think that easy to do is more related to conversion rate and frequency of happening than how we can make it happen.

So, did they happen alot and were they of high FG% ? also, did you saw the pushback or as you said, contact ?
