NBA Live 14 Has Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

With yet another "PIP run" in the 4th quarter, I am just going to give up playing the Clippers...maybe that's my issue, I need to move on...I'll revisit them after the patch

Playing the Thunder though, I did see a lot of pull ups and step backs...don't know if that's just Russell Westbrooks tendencies or if I got an upgrade, I did see a quick "count" screen before the game started..

Had a stretch of games on superstar playing ultimate team (bronze pro) and have to say I like it much better than pro. More variety in the CPU attack and defense quicker to adjust

My ps4 did the roster update and now as soon as I go into "tip off" in the middle of updating rosters it crashes...has happened 3 times in a row. Never had a crash on this game before.

EDIT: Worked on fourth try...

I forgot who mentioned the tip about pushing the stick into the shooters underneath (that didn't sound right ) to alter their shots but it's GOLD!
That's a pro-tip right there. If you body up underneath when they try to paint you to death push the sticks in the direction of the shooter and they'll miss more than usual. This REALLY works fellas. You will draw more fouls this way but at least you have a good chance of stopping them inside instead of being a spectator. Also noticed they'll kick the ball out more when you stop them inside and cutoff their intentions, some what at least.

Man this game is getting more and more fun. I believe 24 said something about trying it himself, have you tried it yet 24?

Re: NBA Live 14 Has Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

Been playing this game since this first 3 patches.. and its The Bizomb! But I am Very Very Curious as to what the so called "BIG" patch will be and when is it suppose to be releaesd (WTF) you seem like the Man who has that back stage pass when it comes to LIVE. Any idea on what that patch might be realistically and its release?

Re: NBA Live 14 Has Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

Im also seeing an audio issue where the crowd gets Hype when the home team is on defense.. and when they get a big stop or turn over .... nothing no applaud, no cheering.. just like nothing happened... and I have yet to see a tap dunk (offensive rebound put back) Has anyone seen one?

Also, trying to upload a quick minute video showing the quickness. Seeing some "glitchier" things now though. Don't judge my gameplay, I'm watching the kids, and trying to pay a little attention on the game

the only thing that really bothered me on the first video was the dunk from wall lol. i just feel that there are a lot of times where it should be a layup (like in the last clip from the first video) instead. but i like that the cpu is moving the ball quicker.

I did actually try it out, its helped a lot more with my positioning....and guarding against the baseline spin...also been doing a bit more manual doubling down low...just still not seeing enough misses on well contested shots down there though. I am not expecting the CPU to miss everything, but in crowds I dont know why I am not seeing more misses...still seems to go in about 90% of the time...I often miss in crowds on offense...and it makes sense...not seeing that from the A.I..

I thought I saw one, but not 100%

Re: NBA Live 14 Has Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

Honest opinion I need. Should I trade in 2K for this? Is there a lot of improvement to this game that it's worth a buy now?

Re: NBA Live 14 Has Arrived, Post Your Impressions Here

Tomba you might be on to something with your tight defense on rookie settings. I just played one game as the bulls vs bucks. I was killing them at first and was worried it might be too easy, but they came roaring back and I only one by 2 in the end. Could even have lost as or gone to OT if there was a bit longer left as I missed two FT with Hinrich but the was no time left for the cpu to do anything about it!!

Will have to see how long it lasts with it on rookie as I don't get to much time to play it at the moment it's ok but once I get to know the game better I may need to change it up. Loving it at the moment though.

I really love this game as a whole, is it perfect no, is any game perfect no. This looks a little awkward at times which is why some don't like it I think, but next gen is about so much more than the way a game looks!! I truly believe there are things in this game that couldn't have been achieved on last gen.
