NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

[WTF]

Re: NBA 2K14 Developers Love the PS4?

This is a really big deal, and it can make online games better. This is something that we are really excited about. The Xbox Live Cloud lets us to do things in Titanfall that no player-hosted multiplayer game can do. That has allowed us to push the boundaries in online multiplayer and that’s awesome. We want to try new ideas and let the player do things they’ve never been able to do before! Over time, I expect that we’ll be using these servers to do a lot more than just dedicated servers. This is something that’s going to let us drive all sorts of new ideas in online games for years to come.

The Cloud will make the ALWAYS ONLINE policy back in effect. So how, per se, can developers alienate those without a connection, or those who play single player who refuse to connect?

The Power of the Cloud, is what MS was banking on with it's "Always Connected" policy.

Great, it's cool in theory for online. We'll see how this plays out.

I'll stand by my guys who have led me away from the One, at least for the first few years. I'll take the words of producers and lead devs vs interwebs reporters who are reporting in theory vs hands on usage with both consoles.

@diehard, how will x1 be better d\own the line?? Weaker, doesn;t have sony's qiuality first party studios...look at ps3, if anything, 360 got worse and worse as ms foccused on kinect and abandoned any new ip's on 3670 for years,. Ps3 got better and better.The power gap will be more noticeable as games get more demanding. There is a significant gap in power this gen.

im just talking about my preference. For ps2 and Xbox. Had both and ended up spending most my time on Xbox.

Ps3/360 had both. Ended up only using my ps3 for the show and uncharted.

I think the same thing will happen again. The Xbox was jut more fun for me.

Also Microsoft usually has a big picture in their head.They wouldn't make the console 100 dollars more with kinect if they didn't think it would really pay off in the end result. My kids love it, their friends love it and they always play it. they did their research on it to go ahead and make it a mandatory thng in the Xbone. The cloud sounds awesome. If devs can put it to use it could really be useful. Of course it could backfire and be useless. But MS bets its the future. There not afaid to jump out and take a risk( like those used game policies). In the end for me. I'm gunna have both so I won't miss out on anything.

MS launch choices are not always brilliant...remember HD disk standard vs BR one?

Damage control... That's all that was...

Cool quote from Mike Wang over at Visual Concepts. I am so glad Sony made this thing easier to work with, especially after the ps3 debacle.

"I love the PS4! I‘m a convert. I wasn’t a huge fan of the PS3 controller, but DualShock 4 is amazing, it feels perfect. I love the changes that Sony has done! The machine itself is ridiculous, it’s so powerful, so much easier to develop for. In the office it’s unanimous; we have a couple people who don’t play anything else now, they won’t touch Xbox One. We love the PS4, it’s a great system."

Two other guys from 2k said the same thing to me a few weeks ago.

We'll that was because Sony was one of the founding companies and has a patent in blu-Ray tech. The BDA also has a say in who is able to use the tech, Microsoft isn't in that group.

I like how this interview gets released right after NBA2k releases info about an exclusive contract with PS4.

My reaction after reading the entire thread



Looks like everyone had done research as if they were doing their PHD dissertation. Damn these guys takes their consoles too serious. Beluba gave his view then clarified what he meant. You like a system go buy it, no need to try and convince others that your choice is the best one. the real question is who are you trying to convince ? others or yourself ??

"Xbox has exclusive w FIFA, we have to come up with something. What's the 2nd most played sports game? Throw money their way ASAP?" PS4 execs.

I really dont care about which system the dev's prefer. release date for PS4 is 9 days away and Xbox One is 16 days away and I still havent seen a full game yet. Im sick of the well put together trailers for Madden and 2K. I need full gameplay, from gameplay camera angles. Are they going to make us wait until we get a next gen system just to see a full game. What is the hold up? If the PS4 is better than the X1, then show me some damn gameplay on the PS4. They gave us 2k14 footage on current gen almost a month or two before it came out. Screenshots are cool, but WTF can I do with a screenshot? Stare at it, print it out and tape it to my tv. Am I the only one that feels like they're giving us the run around. Sorry for the rant fellas
