I knew you would be into sixteen year old boys!
Smokey doesn't care about us vets, ecnal.
I love vets
Similar to Madden, some teams have more fans than others. If two want a team then they play, like AT and Wellie for example. The loser gets to pick from what's left.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
Gonna take a spot over here on the bench Smokey.
Might be the best place for me. I only played a little NBA2k12. I'm certainly down to watch some streams of league games and maybe play some exhibition matches with some of you to earn a spot.
Amazon still can't find a copy for me so I might not get it until around the 19th or something. Or I guess I could pick it up if it's in stock at walmart tonight when I pick up the ps4

I can groom you into the great player you are destined to be
Some of us have lives bro.
5 games a week plus 12 minute quarters? I give the league 1 week lol.
Yeah no way i'm playing 5 games a week. 2-3 is fine.

Played the game offline a bit
We mightttt have a Madden 06 on our hands here...didn't spend much time with it but right off the bat I noticed no total control passing option in the menu. Nor did I see the dedicated screen control button from current gen versions...
There are some graphical inconsistencies that are pretty odd. Like okafors model literally hasn't been upgraded at all but then you see Lebron and you're like wtf.
There's animation jank that doesn't exist on current gen either. Best way I can explain it is there are some jumpers that look like they came straight out of live.
Im concerned that the analog has awful dead zone issues judging by Killzone..but need to test further.

Welp
I'll see first hand in a hour or so. Madden 06 though? You realize how bad that was right?

I wouldn't take too much from my comments given I've played only one exhibition match of 2k14 current gen and I only played one match of NBA 2k14 so far. The install time is of a length that I haven't seen on any platform ever. It's honestly unacceptable--but at least its a one time thing.
Most of it is me probably trying to get used to the control layout. I'm interested in your take as someone who's got extensive experience with 2k14.
I can say that I thought defense felt solid.

Waiting on that X1 league.
The default control scheme I'd estimate takes a minimum of 5-7 games to get used to. Longer to do complex moves. I hated it at first but it grew on me. Defense is improved this year. IMO one of the better defensive efforts they've put out in awhile, you can do quite a bit. I just got my system so I'll be ready to go in a few.
My friend is buying a PS4 controller just to have so he can have two when he gets his PS4 later this year. This is good news because he and I will play what we like to call '2k drinking game' all night long. It's a win-win situation! I'll become familiar with the controls while I drink!

good luck
I was literally holding my breath during the update process. I think there's a lot of bricks out there.
I'm not bothering. There's nothing to be gained with their control swapping. They literally added nothing with the new scheme that couldn't be done better with 2k13 controls. In that game all you do is tab RB/R1 to bring up icons and then flick the right analog in whatever direction for the passing. Simple.
Zero reason to fucking destroy shooting/isomotion for the sake of a dedicated "cool pass" button when 80% of rosters can't pass.
I switched it back to 2k13 controls, but unfortunately the RB/right analog passing functionality is gone.
I'm doing it via USB and not rely on PSN, so hopefully that helps. I downloaded the update last night and it's installing on the PS4 now.
you did what
Download the firmware update from http://us.playstation.com/support/systemupdates/ps4/index.htm. Follow the directions and put it on a USB drive.
Then install on your PS4. That's what I did so I didn't have to worry about the update via PSN freezing or some shit like that.

getting the update isn't an issue, its the installation
once it goes to restart, some people can't get it back on again lol
I think the USB thing is irrelevant

stream?
just play a match and let us know how similar it is to current gen 2k14 first.

2gbs?! Any word on what's in it?
2k14 on your PC is 2k14 on 360 and PS3. There is no difference graphically.
You can mod the shit out of it, you can make it look next gen!
But you don't get LeBron's face scrunching up
They have graphics mods for 2k14? Damn I didn't even know that. I been using these crappy graphics.

where the fuck are smokeys impressions?
i only played a single offline game and one online game
The foot planting seems to have changed the feel of the game. 360/ps3 versions of the game they players felt lighter and so you could lunge for passes, blocks etc. Can't really do that here, or it's not as exaggerated. So it kind of feels janky or clunky because they have some decent amount of weight to them.
The shooting was about the same. DS4 feels good. I didn't have any problems outside of not knowing how to do certain things because I've always played on xbox. In terms of gameplay though the controller felt good.
