Why do you hate to admit it? Also what would make you more excited about Live at this point? The less than 2 minutes of gameplay they have shown?

Actually forget that. Lets keep this on 2k. Thanks.

I've talked to people on youtube about how they can think Live is gonna be better than 2K, long story short the conversation always turns out to be with a Live fanboy lol, I'm all for competition but honestly there isn't any right now.

From the impressions thread a while ago someone said that it's easier to stay in front of someone as a defender now, so maybe if you're manually controlling a defender and a ballhandler dribbles into you you can either force a pass, pickup or even a turnover...hopefully.

I liked what I saw so far!

-Saw more chest passes and naturally looking passing, which is a welcome addition visually for me.

-Ball handling appeared a little more fluid, better foot planting, smoother transitions...something, can't put my finger on it. Hoping that means stick control is a little more responsive.

-Thought Kevin Love face looked great. But, Kyrie doesn't even resemble himself, which is weird if they face captured him?!? Maybe final version will be better?

-Thought Durant player model looked "lankier" than 2k14 version. Big improvement.

-Was hoping Varejo's hair might move/bounced more with running, and I agree with whoever earlier said it looks twiggy. Probably should be a little more Fro'ee (is that a word? Frolicious?)


At least we finally got some video! I don't care what build it is...it is nice to see something in motion

I'm honestly not too excited about that.

Game 'feels' and basically looks the same since forever. They never work on their weaknesses they only build up on the strong parts. I'm beginning to think they should completely rework the game from ground up gameplay wise, starting with actual footplanting.

To see those players constantly hovering all over the place just doesn't quite do it for me anymore. Live 15 has better footplanting imo and I think it really adds to both gameplay and realism. Unfortunately 2k doesn't seem to share my view on priorities.

I am on the fence. I just got a new ps4 but I am in love with the older gen game play. I don't know which version to get since I have not seen game play from last gen. I wonder if signature skills and signature moves are in the current gen game? Hopefully a feature sheet will come out soon...

Looked amazing to me, I didnt play next gen 2k14 so this is all new to me.

really at this point id be satisfied with real defensive foot planting. i actually love the gameplay, but hate that defenders can cover so much ground, the exaggerated verticals, and the fact that defenders dont turn their hips and backpedal realistically.

This look like the NFL 2k5 of basketball,like 2k is taking the nfl license fiasco personal and intend to wipe ea out of the only license they compete on, lol
