NBA 2K14 PS4 PATCH

Story sequences that played out behind the scenes made me care. My player was just an avatar, as separate from me as a real NBA player. Although I could use my own name and decide my play style, I never felt like I belonged. I've always felt a disconnect in previous iterations of My Career mode. This is a team game, even if you only care about filling up the box score.ДЄnd don't think for a second that I'm going to launch a full-court shot just before the buzzer sounds, not when I'm shooting 60 percent from the floor. Watch the flow before attacking, and know your limitations. Use your off arm to shield the ball, practice up fakes and fadeaways, and most of all, be patient. Again and again, defenders embarrass you, until you learn restraint. Defenders have busy hands, swatting away contested shots like a young Hakeem Olajuwon or poking at lazy dribbles like a venomous Chris Mullins. If you're drifting backward, you jump awkwardly, and that off-balance hitch could be the difference between a swish and a clang. Make sure your feet are planted before you hoist a long three. Thump your chest after picking his pocket you've earned a bit of strutting. You can see his face and hear his words, and you want to prove your value against him. Stephen Curry isn't just a nondescript avatar. What's most striking about the visuals is how they draw you in.

Now Playing: NBA 2K14 Video Review Come on, Lucas, I'm open under the basket! The kinetic flow mirrors the real game so closely that minor flaws, such as when players don't dive for a loose ball, really stand out.Д«y clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's Wing defenders fly toward the block to double-team Roy Hibbert, or stay glued to their man when Dwight Howard is bumbling around. The intelligence isn't so artificial anymore. Can they shake off their failure to hit the next shot? When Tyreke Evans is pounding the rock at the top of the key, his teammates stand around watching, knowing that even if they flash open, he's not going to give them the ball. Miss a critical foul shot, and you see the frustration in their eyes. Players tweak their shots when defenders rush toward them, and tumble miserably to the floor when a driving point guard catches them off balance. NBA 2K14 has moved closer to reality than any basketball game so far. My team's name may be on the front of my jersey, but it's the name on the back that's important to me. NBA 2K14 puts you in the shoes of an NBA rookie, where you jockey for playing time and earn respect. And don't think for a second that I'm going to launch a full-court shot just before the buzzer sounds, not when I'm shooting 60 percent from the floor. I'm worried about my stats, and how that buffoon just cost me a double double. When I throw a beautiful pass to a wide-open big man under the basket and he misses a gimme, I don't care about the scoreboard. It's about All Star appearances and Hall of Fame busts. Basketball is about more than winning and losing, more than raising banners. My Career and NBA Today can only be played with an internet connection as of this writing.
