The General Games Discussion Thread. - Off Topic - FM24/25 Update

It took a long time for me to get good at it. Before 2K13 the last NBA game I had was NBA Live 2002 on PC. The tutorials are really good, but going online and playing people when you're new is rough, because you just get hammered. I cheated a little and bought my friend a copy so we could be shit together and get better. I also played a metric fuck ton of Association (which has been upgraded to MyGM, which is looking amazing http://www.operationsports.com/features/1726/nba-2k14-mygm-developer-diary/ ) and MyPlayer (which is just a ridiculously better version of Be A Pro). My online record went from 3-45, at one point, to 59-66 where it is now.

I know it sounds like I'm pushing this hard, but it's just a ridiculous game package. I normally don't care too much about graphics, but the thing is fucking gorgeous. I mean they literally thought of everything and then decided to put it in the game. I mean for fuck's sake, they mo-capped Kent Bazemore's bench reactions:

I'll get FIFA at some point, because... you know, it;s FIFA. But my top two games to get are NBA 2K and Assassin's Creed, in that order.

(Also I'd quite like some friends to play basketball with)

I really, really wish 2k would make an NHL game again. EA Sports have become really lazy.

The NBA game sounds like something I'd pick up once the prices start dropping a bit. Really don't care for basketball so paying full price for an NBA game is out of the question, but a great sports game is always welcome.

Defiantly getting 2k14 on next gen. Enjoyed last years. If a few people got it would be good to play the 2 on 2 or 3 on 3 together if you can get round the no groups bit

Fucking hell. I had to look twice at that still from the video as it looked damn near realistic on this laptop screen

It seems to be having some technical problems. Will be interesting to see how many uses have them on launch day.

Its had a few problems sure but there isn't any console that wont launch with a few units having problems, there was a guy on Twitch who bricked his console but it was his own fault because he did some seriously dumb shit.

Very true. Hopefully it isn't as bad as the Xbox problems though.

Can't plug in hard drive, or stream from network drive. Doesn't even play a fucking audio CD. Definitely waiting until that's sorted before buying it

You're probably one of the only people who will put a CD into a PS4

They've already addressed the media playback thing. Should have a patch comin' out.

Nah, they said they're thinking about it.

Pain in the hole, considering an Xbone until there's a definite patch announced

If it can be fixed with a patch, then they'll fix it with a patch.
Why lose customers over something so small?

Yeah but when will it be fixed with a patch? A week? A month? 6 months?

It was put directly in the FAQ that they released a few weeks back that it didn't have this support so it doesn't seem like they're worried about losing customers over it
