NBA 2k14 Press event video gameplay

Am I the only one that seems to play this game using 2K camera? I don't really like playing the game on broadcast camera..

Many people prefer 2K cam. I have been playing the series since it began on the DC when there was no broadcast cam. I adapted to the broadcast cam over the years, not necessarily because it plays better, but because it really looks like you're watching a tv broadcast.
 
Much better narration. The guy mentions how everyone came away impressed.

Seriously, alot of people in this thread are writing off the graphics based off what they see on a lousy video player when everyone who was in attendance wholeheartedly say that it looks great up close, even in gameplay,
 
These videos are giving me Fight Night Round 3 feels.

Don't normally buy basketball games, but this looks like its going to be worth a purchase.
 
Alright, even with the garbage Gamespot video player, it's IMMEDIATELY clear that the next gen version looks leagues better than the current gen one. Model quality, physics, animations, lighting, reflections, all far, far better.

animations and physics sim look to be the same.
 
With their heavily compressed garbage, how is anyone supposed to tell anything about improved visuals:

Tons of detail is lost up close, so it's no wonder it looks like blurred nonsense from a far. Similar reactions happened in The Order thread until Gamersyde screenshots showed up...

What's up with the different tattoos?
 
I used to play with the 2k cam but one year it was asstacular and I switched to broadcast and haven't been able to switch back. Plus the freeze and swivel after every basket sucked
 
So bizarre. Game looks waaaay better during gameplay with the pulled out camera, than it does during cutscenes. Face and hand animations need a LOT of work for those high scrutiny shots to work well.
 
I thought the gamersyde one was super recent too. Like couple of days.
Could that mean that they're actually two different versions (platforms) here then?

they originally based their tattoos on their previous player models of LB. They see LB had recently got some additional tattoos, so it was added to their game.
 
Next gen continues the trend of poorly modeled white people hair. White players in this game look like they fell out of NBA Live.
 
Not enough of a leap in my opinion, they went overboard with PR speak, which is always the first warning shot. The player jerseys looked great on the trailer and then on gameplay vids you can see them hovering right over the skin, like always.

Meh.
 
i wonder if at some point in the next gen we will see people with dynamic flowing hair. all the white dudes look like they have a wig pasted onto their head
