Any news about NBA 2K15 for PC?

[shadowgrin]

BREAKING: 2K dev just zinged Live 14's graphics.

[cramsiaca]

Incorrect argument. The simplest example - NBA live 14 (same iginte Engine as Fifa) - 9 GB, NBA 2k14 NG - requires 50GB. It's not about content - cause in the engine.

It's all in the art assets.

Shots fired.

Wanted the MyCareer mode was equal in ps4 ..

I was talking about how much space code takes up compared to the game's art.

My gun is well holstered.

Oh, sure. I forgot that.
Maybe on October 7, you'll use all your ammo.

I'm French, and Leftos is almost always talking with enigma. It's such a problem

Yall don't need similar skin textures of slightly different skin tones. All you need is a gray scale texture and an RGB or HSL color mix attached to a slider. It's bball 2015. Time to improve over the standard 5 skin tones. Especially since the code for this would take less space.

Yup, this should absolutely be standard by now.

It's been standard in WWE games for 10 years, I don't get why sports games feel the need to restrict customization like this.

WWE games are the same since smackdown vs raw 2008 (yeah I exaggerates a little). Hope that 2K will do some news for the next, or the one after (and can't even hope of a PC version)

It should be Saint's Row personalisation, if I want a green player, I get one

[Hadley88]

Not really. Last year, we knew that we were getting a 360/PS3 port, owing to the price tag and the release date.

Prices are irrelevant. Amazon for example lists the PC Version for 29.99€ and I guess some other Stores have it at 59.99 right now. Its the same with Release-Dates, Stores just guess it to have something to put up.
All this talk about size of the Game is just stupid, it doesn't mean shit! There are Games that are just not/very bad compressed (Titanfall for example is 50GB because they did not fucking compress their Audio).

PC Versions are mostly made for EU/China, because most Americans play on Peasantboxes I guess while the rest of the World plays more on PCs. Thats why there are no Madden/Baseball/Ice-Hocker or Wrestling Games on PC.
The mahor point why 2K would port the PS4 Version is: Its probably even easier to port from PS4/Xboner to PC than from XBOX360, because the new Consoles are basically Low-End PCs. So I doubt it will cost much more to a PS4 Port, depends on what 2K China is able to do with it.

The release date was confirmed fairly early last year, first for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, then PlayStation 4 and Xbox One after the launch date of those consoles was revealed. There really was no ambiguity as to whether or not the PC version would be next gen; it was clear for a while before the game came out. Some people opted to hold out hope in the face of overwhelming evidence that it wasn't going to be a next gen port, then were disappointed and angry that 2K didn't deliver something that they never promised in the first place.

This year, we have a bit more ambiguity.

Developers always share news with us when they have something good, if they're not, if they're waiting, we can be pretty sure that it will be same old 2k13.

[JaoSming]

Developers only share news when marketing says they can.

uhm sry, my post should sound like this:

Marketing share news with us when they have something good, if they're not, if they're waiting, we can be pretty sure that it will be same old 2k13.

[JaoSming]

Or that marketing has a specific plan for the next two months that has historically provided the game with a lot of hype and exposure on Twitter and other social media.

Either way, its all speculation at this point. I'll just stick to my "odd years are great years for 2K" and "hopefully this year breaks the even year curse" until we get actual information.

[Patr1ck]

2k has always been like this. They wait to see what EA is bringing to the table, then give out little pillows to cushion our jaws when they drop while viewing the trailers.

[ColumbusBobby23]

Does anybody know how long they have before the release date to work on the game? Basically how many days before the release date do they have to turn in the final build? I'm guessing a week or two?

Leftos maybe you can answer this question?

[ThePointForward]

I believe it's about a month for getting ratings and ms/sony approval plus some time (week?) to get physical copies ready and shipped.

Meanwhile devs start with bug fixing and rebalancing, because day one patches are pretty much usual now (and that isn't necessarily a bad thing).

[ColumbusBobby23]

Sooo...Nobody knows for sure?

The translation sais the pc version is identical to the console, but which one? Do they mean a fully featured last gen or current gen?

Here translation of comments under article by basket4rap with article author.
Basket4rap: Where can I find confirmation of the information and to make sure that the version of NBA 2K15 actually on the PC version will be the "next-gen" and not a port of X360/PS3? Because I understand that the author in this sentence "Even so, the PCs 2K15 version is now identical to the release of the console ..." was just about the fact that the PC version this year will be such as to XO/PS4;>
@ Basket4rap:
This information comes from one of the representatives of 2K Games and was transferred to the official demonstration game for the press, for which I had the pleasure to host. And yes - the PC version will be exactly as on the PS4 and XO

Let me doubt of it until 2K say something official, hope that 2K will say something before the end of summer..
