While this looks kinda cool whats the point. When i first heard about it i figure they where using IN GAME footage but this just look like something you could just go on NBA.com and see or maybe im not understanding it fully.

In 2013 I would call this an useless feature.

# 44 NoTiCe_O @ 10/31/13 10:53 AM

It's cool when it's seamless like how it was in NBA Live 10, I would just be dribbling in the practice court and shooting around then all of a sudden I would get ESPN highlights of last nights games. I kind of enjoyed that.

If this is something where I have to go into a mode just to see it then I don't think it will get much use from me personally. Yet, if it is seamless then it can't be a bad thing at all.

....Yeah, I don't fully get the point of this etiher. For real NBA, I can go to NBA.com or the NBA TV etc. When I play 2K, I want to be in my own alternate NBA universe. But I am probably missing something???

Agreed. I want to be able to do something WHILE getting scores and highlights. No one wants to sit in this mode when we can get on our phone and just look up the scores.

I'll be the first to tell you, I've been never seen that before lol. Sports bars in my area are not high class, high tech like that. Just a bunch of hdtvs. that's it

# 48 stillfeelme @ 10/31/13 12:27 PM

It looks ok but the font ticker style just makes it look dated, like the 90's. Maybe that is the reason they are looking at hiring some art folks lol. There has to be a better way to present scores. Take a look at how most web apps look for phones.

I'm not a CPU, I don't read bite-code.

# 50 reptilexcq @ 10/31/13 09:51 PM

Can you separate the standings into Division rather than Conference? That'll be nicer.

# 51 Caveman24 @ 10/31/13 10:16 PM

Imagine this with a properly built OA

# 52 CMH @ 10/31/13 10:22 PM

I'm just noticing now there's no indication who is the winner of the games.

That's pretty awful, guys. The design is flawed. Stuff like this should be easy to decipher immediately. I shouldn't have to look and figure out who was playing who and who won.

Right now it's only six teams on the left so it's easy to figure out. Imagine if it was a night with twelve games.

Actually even with six teams I struggled a little bit. I didn't even look at first, then there was a comment in this thread about confusion with the green and the white. I went back and looked and even knowing which teams played and won on opening night, my eyes still wanted to match up the wrong teams.

It's really not as difficult as you're making it sound. Two teams playing are colored in the same font color. In the current day's games in the second column it's fairly easy to determine who plays who at a glance with more than three games on tap. If you see two team names that are the same color, they're playing each other. That's why it alternates yellow, green, yellow, green. It's not brain surgery.

Except I'm color blind and didn't even notice one set was yellow and the other green.

Damn, color blind folk getting the shaft again!

The fact that many people were initially confused and you even have to type this out means the design is fail.

Good designs are self explanatory and intuitive. They need no deciphering.

Wait a min. This is for the real NBA info? I thought this feature was for "MyGM" mode when playing you're game. Meh, not interested. I don't want to see "real" live scores and videos. That's why I have ESPN/NBA.com for. What a waste of code and time.

I kinda agree. I believe it's a very nice touch, but I would have much rather seen something like NFL 2K5 where you seen highlight around the league of stuff happening in your game. It would have been cool just for quick games and NBA today games. But in MyGM Mode, it should be the video game highlights.

Maybe this a step in that direction though. And it's a pretty cool idea. Just hope we see actual video game highlights and stuff soon.

I feel bad now for giving Ronnie and Chris **** over the last month, albeit it's cuz I wanted to see video and get more info, but now coming on these forums you guys complain about the stupidest **** I've ever seen lol I gues I just don't understand wasting my time to write negative but I guess SOME of it could make a difference, I just don't post if I don't have anything good to say, don't waste my time, unles I'm pointing it out like this... NBA 2K14 next gen is gonna be the best basketball game any of us has every played, watch...

And for the record I was able to see the scores and stats no problem first glance... That's why they r grouped in the same colors, green, yellow, etc lol idiots

So. Much. Irony.
