So in other words people were expecting absolute perfection with this game? Something that doesn't exist. A company takes a risk and does a completely new game instead of just porting the current gen version like madden, and fifa. They incorporate many things people wanted, and people are still complaining...It's the first year....

I absolutely cannot wait until we see how the computer AI plays. Also, the tidbit about each jumpshot looking different is mind blowing. Will literally give you something new to see every game.

How much different though? Will KD still look like KD? So many changes, you have to wonder if it's too much too soon. All sounds great, of course.

To everyone who is responding negatively to my comment regarding the change in engine creates some minor concerns: I am not complaining! But be realistic....sometimes when things get changed, it doesn't always work out perfectly. I love the concept, but I have a little bit of a concern as I now don't really know what to expect exactly.

With a direct port (not saying they should have done this) you know basically how the game plays and feels. It's usually a fresh coat of paint on an old classic. Not much changes but it looks better.

With a new engine we get all kinds of new goodies in addition to great new graphics. But we don't yet know the side effects (if there are any).

So normally an NBA2k title is a safe buy since they are all very similar each time. building on a core foundation. This is the first time I am not sure what to expect.....kinda like if I bought NBA Live this year. I was certain NBA2k was the way to go....but now I have some worries. Hopefully they all get put to bed quickly. I have more faith in 2K sports than EA.

Lets hope 2K did it up right for this new engine!

Peace.

Madden: It's always the same thing, it never changes.

NBA 2k14: It's the same game as 2k13 the devs are lazy.

NBA 2k14 next gen: THEY CHANGED TOO MUCH!!

There is no winning, is there...?

Then people complain that COD doesn't change anything. The suits are right I guess; you can't change too much because if not people won't know what to expect.

This turned into the Madden forums quick fast and in a hurry

Not sure I follow Boiler, 2K has confirmed different body types and wingspans are in, KD will look like KD.

And yes I agree, it all sounds amazing, which is why i'm F'n excited haha. Of course there will be some worry about how these new modes will perform, and how the new engine will work, but for right now, i'm excited as iv'e ever been for a video game.
