NBA 2k14 Not Really Responsive

[KingDarealHD]

I love the new Dribble controls on 2k14 but it really is unresponsive. Your dribble is really delayed. May not seem really delayed but that split second messes up your moves. I have done a ton of moves for open shot then it gets ruined by a late move and then the defender is riding me again. Also the spacing still fells cluttered. AI i thought was suppose to be smarter than last year but it isn't by much. The flow of the game is better than last year but not really like real life. m hoping next gen they can fix this.AI should be smarter but i dont know by how much. 2k has talked alot about graphics and my team but arent showing the game-play improvements. Right now they arent trying to distract you from that at the moment. More gameplay info will probably come out by the last week of release. By that time everyone will be sold on getting it just based off of graphics and game modes. Gameplay is key hoping they blow our minds in that last week with the gameplay. This current PC game is getting tired out really quick. Same game as last year but with 10% improvements that you will like for the first 2 months. Not enough to keep playing for the whole year. Share you guys opinions on the gameplay aspect of this year 2k and what you expect for next gens version.

I'd say that's the current gen engine showing its age. I too hope that isn't the case with next gen.

I noticed the same thing, King. It's weird because I don't think 2K12 had this issue at all and gameplay is pretty much the same.

Easy to bypass any delay,just change speed & quickess sliders.

That changes the whole game not just delay. Makes the game feel like its fast forwards. After playing the game some more The AI is freaking retarded especially in My Player. Its really un-enjoyable. Players block you and bring their man towards you. Players wont shoot when open. Players cut from a open spot to a clogged area right when you press the pass button. But when the other teams play they play like nba gods. Passes go trough you body and you my player gets sucked in somewhere allowing the AI to go to the basket open. Almost broke my PC because im so mad at it. They really need some different pick animations. When i call for a pick my player should go into a lower dribble and tighter, not just burst around the pick. 2k15 they need to focus on the gameplay aspect. Graphics will be dope all ready. Point Guards needs to be able to keep defenders on their hip when they get a step in front. Needs to be a lot more body contact and momentum moves. I wish someone like Chris Paul or Curry can sit down with the developers and really go in depth about what it feels like on the court. i dont even want to mod anymore because the game is so boring right now.

I have to agree that it is boring. There is something about the AI this year compared to last year, but I can't really put my finger on it. It might have something to do with the buggy broken play AI where a player will just hold the ball, but I am not sure. If the superstars got more involved in dominating the touches and shot attempts, it might seem more fun. I am having trouble editing the sliders to get the stars more involved, too.

As for the control, I talked about it when the game first came out. It's more responsive in certain areas than previous games, especially with quick players, but it is also a bit more heavy when it comes to changing direction, making it harder to cut on a dime or recover on defense after being beaten. My main gripes are with the responsiveness of block attempts turning into a hopstep swat that happens late and becomes a goal tend, and the psychic pro stick when receiving a pass on the move towards the basket. If you want to perform a dribble move off the catch or stop and pump fake, good luck, because that is turning into a shot.

I really agree with you Pdub on superstars not being more involved. That's been my concern ever since like, 2k9? Superstars just doesn't feel like their real life counterparts. They don't attempt much, they don't do their goto moves. I specially feel this with russel westbrook! I don't remember him scoring more than 10 points against me or shot more than 10 attempts, if I don't allow him. I hope this is not the case for next gen.

the only I dont like is when I do a pump fake then get stuck on the player in the air and not running by him or he knocks me down that #@$$@$
