With any sports game on any generation proper speed is important to a realistic game. Usually the faster the game speed the more cheesy the game is. A slower game requires more thinking, and strategy than a turbo fest. 2K14 is 75 percent stick skills and 25 percnet strategy. Hopefully we can get the opposite this year. I like what I see so far.

The one thing NBA Live nailed was the look of their rim.

I'm loving the game speed.

Nice little spin move in the paint by Cole. Still liking the help D

Didnt TNT use the long substitution screen? I think thats pretty authentic.

Like that player warmups are back and that different camera angles are sometimes used on inbounds.

Did anyone else notice the different shooting mechanic or was it just me. It appeared to be there was a meter that filled up and when it was full it looks like you had to let it go, I can't tell completely my eyes aren't good enough to see that small.

Yeah I just read that hands on and quoted this....

Before, you had to jump holding the button and release it at the height to run the best arc. Now, it has a kind of integrated power bar that appears at the bottom of the circle that usually surrounds a player when you have selected. In that bar, factors such as jumping, "timing" and the difficulty of the shot, so that if we stopped the meter at its halfway point, the chances of the ball through the hoop will be greater condense.

yep looks like a "release when green" shot meter which takes away need to learn jumpshots. I hope I am wrong because that's ultimate hand holding

Or maybe they removed letter grades as in hoped and the meter measures shot release by either being green white or red

Very interesting, not sure what all that means completely, but I'm sure I will once I play the game.
