NBA Live 14 Trailer - First Look (Screen Captures Included)

04:14 PM - September 18, 2013 by Steve_OS

EA Sports has released their NBA Live 14 gameplay trailer, which features a first look at their game in action. We figured it would be short, let us know what you think.

In the coming weeks expect to hear a lot more about NBA Live 14, some of the nuggets we are expecting to learn about are the 50+ signature styles in the game, Connected Experiences, and more game modes. It appears as if the Live 14 hype train has finally left the station and it's expected we'll see a lot more on this game in the next several weeks.

We've also captured some screenshots from the video. Obviously, they will look better in 1080p, these were captured in 720p.

I'm definitely open-minded, just not impressed up to this point. The next gen trailers from their competition have been more intriguing and have piqued my curiosity more. That shouldn't be the case at this point if you are the underdog with more to prove.

Nice catch, it looks like we will see a new feature trailer each week until launch.

I am cautiously optimistic about the 2k14 next gen teaser trailer, but there is little to no actual gameplay there. Graphically, it was something to see (except for Lebron's mouth at the end.) Gameplay wise, I saw nothing in the demo that said it was actual gameplay. Devs can do a lot of things with a modelling engine that the game just can't replicate.

In the end, it will always come down to the gameplay. I can put up with accessory errors and incorrect jersey colors as long as the gameplay feels like it should. Right now, neither company has shown what the game will look like when actual people are playing it on next gen.

I cant wait to see more. But hopefully we just don't only see "feature trailers".

Outsell 2K? Yeah I think you may have taken something and don't realize it there. They'll definitely sell some copies, but going from three straight cancelled games due to garbageness to outselling the king of the hill? People aren't that stupid I don't think.

uh...Live is only a next gen game so how exactly will this outsell 2k when 2k has PC/current gen and next gen. Plus not many will make the jump to next gen...if anything current gen console will probably outsell next gen. I highly doub people will go to next gen just for Live lol

In his defense (don't know why I'm doing it either), I think he meant only head to head next gen versions and not as a whole. There isn't a Live fan alive that delusional I doubt.

The bottom line is that even if you forget the history of empty promises, you have very little to no tangible evidence that ANY of their promises going forward can or will be kept.

Lol now you're just trolling or something, I don't know. Because not once have I even flipped my mindset about 2k. They say real recognize real, and I'm just telling it like it is. Could it possibly be that there is a human being in this world that can enjoy two different basketball games and not have to compare them like a child, but see the potential in both? *Gasp* I'm speaking on potential that's all, what the game could be.

EDIT: As far as evidence goes, I think the Ignite engine is looking sharp for EA's other sports game, so I assume that should help out Live a lot. Not to mention the bouncetek reviews have been 95% positive, and this is coming from real people playing the game, not all paid website reviewers. Even our own trusted OS gave the system positive reviews. That's evidence enough, along with the various articles, screenshots, interviews, and trailers.

I agree with you bro 100%. Its sad that people can't recognize that the issues EA is trying to fix still exist in every b-ball game to date. We don't expect it to be perfect but at lease somebody is trying. Im all for a more realistic experience no matter witch company brings it and so far it EA and can't nothing anybody say change my mind period.

EA can change peoples minds but they have failed to put out a game to even put a foot in the door.

.. I also disagree about being close minded. This company has something to prove. All of this hogwash about casual and hardcore fans, and looking into the future means nothing at all until they first get a freaking game out the door.

Secondly, Im sorry but the use of the term close minded is off here. As I mentioned about dribbling, theyve been talking about that for months on end now. People are past that but yet it seems to be the only thing that keeps coming up. If they want to sell this game they're going to have to sell it on other things besides dribbling.

Eventually all of the comparisons on the overall gameplay are going to come to light. They can splice up video and hide wonky animations in their trailers up the ying yang, but all it takes is that one person to expose the right issue to give them major problems again in people's minds. ala boozer jumping from the ft line, or some ridiculous glitch and the trust factor is all of sudden broken again.

I don't think EA needs a defense, they need to bust their buts to prove this game belongs out there with the other companies, not that we should feel lucky they have something out there...thats a bunch of bull. Its nex gen, we don't need excuses anymore.

It's funny how these people don't mention the vast improvements in foot planting which is something they griped on for years. Now it's oh you have to dribble too much to get around people and why isn't he smiling when going for a layup...

Its time for you to stop with the madness of name calling and trolling. You're seriously on thin ice right about now.

You mean the bouncetek reviews that no one has seen in a 5 on 5 scenario. I am sorry there are just too many issues with that trailer, yes Kyrie Irving looks good but the other player models are way too bulky, look at the start of the video players arms don't look like that and why do the player models still look so plastic.

# 233 DaveDQ @ 09/20/13 06:02 PM

I like the arena and player detail. Not crazy about how at the jump ball all the players jumped into a run animation in sync.

At the end of the day both companies have something to prove for me. EA need to prove they can get a game out based on the vision they have set and 2k need to show me they can fix the same issues that EA is trying to correct. I don't knock no one for feeling the way they do about either but its like people try their hardest to get people to like one over the other. Even tho it was dumb to put a hockey guy in charge, I know that he was right about one thing and thats b-ball has been stuck for over a decade.

We don't need to be reminded about EA past every time something Live get brought up, its annoying to most but I know how to ignore. When will people let go and just let the new team prove themselves?

# 235 Supersonic_BR @ 09/20/13 07:24 PM

What just baffles me is that we have yet to see any actual gameplay footage of pretty much all next gen sports games, with the exception of FIFA.

I mean, these games will be launched in less than two months, give us some freaking footage, and i mean actual gameplay footage, how we actualy play our games.

Either it looks bad, it's not ready, or they haven't yet kicked in their marketing.

I'm hoping that they need more polish and real marketing is yet to start.

2K and Live Need to prove themselves since its a new generation

Live isn't the only one(they just have to prove the most of the 2)

A mediocre 7.5 game outselling one if the best games in sports gaming for years after a 3 year developmental catastrophe?

Ridiculous.

I don't know what alternate reality Live fanboys live in. They don't appear to be satisfied with "Live might be kind of good and might kind of do okay." which is really its best case scenario right now.

EA's past is completely relevant. Clean slates don't erase that, especially since they've given themselves 2 clean slates already.

People will let it go when the new team actually proves themselves, not before.

I would agree if it was the same team who messed up Live in the first place but since its not you can't put what the other team did on them.

Doesn't matter, since same could be said of the teams that messed up. The new team might be on the right track. But they also had to start from scratch with a dev cycle that's less than 2 years which is an additional difficulty to overcome in such a complex game as basketball.

The monkey is off their back when they prove themselves. Not before.
