NBA 2K14 - Michael Jordan Uncensored Part II, Some Next-Gen Legends Shown

[DukeC]

Vdusen, I think what's happened here is that, for the most part, 2k has satisfied their customers. All things aside, your concerns about 2K14 are all next gen right? That requires you to make a 400+ dollar investment, for a game you might not like because it has changes that aren't conducive to you having fun. You have every right to voice your concerns and if it truly looks like you can't plop down the money for it, then it's absolutely okay to wait until 2K15 and see if 2K's direction is more in line from what you want to see from the game.

Absolutely nothing wrong with sticking with 2K14 on current gen, if that's what you currently enjoy playing and the next gen offering isn't enticing to you. 400+ dollars is not chump change (at least as far as I'm concerned).

I mean, we all want the game to play and look better, but to hinge a purchase decision on "terrible jerseys" and number sizing mistakes in a game where jersey fits are better than ever and so much appears LIFELIKE seems ridiculous. I mean it's definitely his perogative, but the way that's expressed isn't really constructive. I know as a dev, I would ignore that sort of pithy, seemingly irrational venting over more well thought out criticisms like yours. I would consider you a potential customer that can appreciate progress and the other somewhat unreasonable with a possible axe to grind. I know the Legends handling hasn't been perfect in the last few years, but it's still a far cry above pretty much every other sports game. The fact that they redid Legends for Next Gen shows some level of commitment I didn't expect. Either way, at the end of the day, I'm not sure how imperfect Legends should trump better playing, MUCH better looking, NBA basketball for fans of the sport. I say this as someone who wants Jordan to be better represented: If I ask myself if I'd rather be playing 2K11 or 2K12 (with all it's problems) because it features cartoonish looking legends a little better, or lifelike looking, better playing NBA basketball with passable Legends-- I have to answer "How is that even a question?" Especially when the game pro-rates to about a buck-twenty a week. That's half as much as some people spend on coffee a day (assuming you're planning on making the next-gen jump eventually anyway).

Unfortunately, though I see your point, I do have a job and have to work during the day, so typing a plethora of well thought out critiques just to get my point across to please the masses is something I don't have time for.

There's things I don't like in the game, and it's because of the amount of things I do not like, that I complain, and wish to continue my boycott of a purchase. It's really as simple as that. I'm not in the majority, I'm aware, but am here to voice my opinion none the less.

As petty as it may seem to you, things like jerseys, animations etc matter to me. This is next gen gaming here, there should be no excuse for things like this, they've had years to get it right. Either do it properly, or not at all.

Does anyone know 100% for sure they won't be any new classic teams in the next gen game?

YES WE KNOW FOR A FACT. A fact that is true as much as that you're a member of OS.

Man, if I was Mike, I would've played bare chested that game in Orlando and wrote "23" on my chest with a magic marker (pun intended)
