NBA Live 14 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

[WTF]

I, believe it or not, had a really good time with the demo last night. I got to play for around 2 hours plus, and the more you learn, the better the game gets. It's some animations, some ball physics interaction, Sliders & Custom cameras away from being a pretty decent start.

I'm going to try to get some games in tonight to get a further grasp on the controls and abilities before giving any further impressions.

The first time I played the demo, it was a disaster. I'm not sure if "Synergy" has kicked in leading to a little more fluid experience, or what, but it definitely felt somewhat better.

I'm sad to report that I think I'm gonna buy this game. After re downloading the demo again I had a helluva game last night

OKC (me) vs Knicks. Durant hit a 3 with 4 seconds left to take the lead by 2, Knicks call a TO and inbounds at half court and JR Smith got loose for a 3 GAME OVER I lose by 1. Lol

This game has potential. I beat the /:;t out of this game and I'm gonna take some of it back. I hope and pray EA comes out next year with Live 15. I'm gonna go out and support this title in hopes that they don't dump it due to sales. After the fiasco that's going on with the other title EA will get some $$ from me

It needs animations. It needs sliders. It needs better in game textures. The game needs a practice mode. It needs customizable cameras.

Overall though, with the Synergy updates (that's what I'm blaming it on), it's playing a better game. It's playing a much better game. No doubt about it.

Dont' feel bad either Flight, I've got it coming too.

I'm stuck on every save that I have on the other game, which drove me back to the demo. Whatever has been updated since release of the demo has made an impact, for the better.

Is it pretty to look at? No. But I've seen some really good AI make some really good fundamental basketball plays.

It there a camera in the retail version that resembles the 2K camera angle?? I'm not a fan of the Broadcast camera

I have the full game but only use the broadcast and I'm not home to check into it now, but I would think that there is since the challenges (which you can play on the demo) use the 2K camera angle (at least the ones I've played).

Try that out and see if you like it.

[WTF]

There is Flight. When you play the demo, play the Oladipo challenge, and the John Wall assist challenge. Both of those use that type of camera. One of them plays better than the other, can't remember which off the top of my head.

It's the first time that I've semi-enjoyed using that type of camera. If they can smooth out the framerate on those types of views, would be pretty nice.
