October 18th Official Roster for NBA 2K14

A new official roster update for NBA 2K14 has come through, accurate as of October 18th, 2013. It appears as though coaching profiles have been corrected in this update, after being reset in the first roster update that corrected the problem with generated rookie ratings.

The update should come through automatically as long as your PC, Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 is connected to the Internet. PC users may also choose to make use of this offline update pack, which contains a copy of the latest roster and online data files.

NBA Live 14 Official Gameplay Trailer

EA Sports have uploaded the official gameplay trailer for the upcoming Xbox One and PlayStation 4 launch title, NBA Live 14. The trailer mashes together many different players’ moves in a 5 on 5 gameplay setting with the only real editing done to the video being camera cuts. Kyrie Irving, Carmelo Anthony, Deron Williams, Steve Nash and Dwyane Wade, among others, all make appearances.

The trailer does a good job showing off dribbling moves, basic player movement, and the overall art style for the game. You can check it out below; if you can’t see the embedded video, you can catch it here on YouTube. After watching, share your thoughts in the comments and in our NBA Live 14 Forum.

The Friday Five: 5 Features Basketball Games Don’t Need

It seems another week has gone by, so it’s time for another edition of The Friday Five! For those of you who are checking out The Friday Five for the first time and are wondering what it’s all about, this is a feature that I post every Friday in which I give my thoughts on a topic that’s related to basketball video games, the real NBA or another area of interest to our community, either as a list of five items or in the form of a Top 5 countdown.

We’re often talking about the things that we want to see added to basketball video games in terms of game modes and features. As with any gaming community, there are a lot of good ideas being thrown out there that developers would be wise to keep in mind. It should also be said that basketball game developers certainly come up with some fine ideas themselves. However, every so often a suggestion is made or a feature is introduced that just doesn’t seem like a good idea. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion of course, but these are five features that I just don’t believe are needed in basketball video games.

  • The athlete lineup for NBA Live 14 has been announced and some new screenshots have been posted, so naturally we have to analyse them in minute detail.
  • Speaking of screenshots, the first proper screenshot for NBA 2K14 next gen has come out. Is the ball texture as impressive as NBA Live 14?
  • The big social media feature of NBA 2K14 has been announced: Locker Codes. The panel goes mild.
  • Andrew finally has NBA 2K14 on PC, so he can offer some initial impressions. We also finally have closure on the Saga of the Pre-Order & NBA 2K13 CD Key (sort of).
  • A few NBA topics are discussed including the Celtics’ new gameplan and some other preseason impressions.
  • We wrap up with a listener mailbag, in which you give us your thoughts on NBA 2K14 so far.
