    Re: Xbox One Random Thoughts

    Also the my career gameplay is so much better than 2k14 on last gen. I don't know what went wrong . I really enjoyed mycareer in 2k13 but the player awareness took a huge hit in 14. It is almost unplayable on 360. On next gen the gameplay is so fluid I find myself playing both mycareer and MyGm a lot and finishing games. In the past I would sim as much as possible.

        I'm very tough on 2K because I feel like their product has stalled since they had no competition. But with this version, I'm super impressed. Once the server patches up, this has the chance to be the best basketball game of all time.

        I advise everyone who normally skips playing associations to give mygm a shot. You have control over EVERY NOOK AND CRANNY of the organization

          Yeah, 2K14 is almost as frustrating as 2K12 on the 360. Teammate AI is just the worst.

          I catch all the Chris Smoove videos on YouTube for 2K14 on PS4. Game looks much more fluid. Still have some dumb teammate AI where they won't shoot when wide open. I really don't like how things are scripted into the game. That bothers me. Especially about earning a starting spot. If you are one of the top picks, you should freaking start right away. Scripting missed FTs, have a bad game just so you can have a cut scene is ridiculous.

          Smoove had a game where his team was up 15 at the half. He didn't play but the last few minutes in the game and his team was down 12 and had to lead his team back. I can understand if he was in and they started to lose, but it was scripted that way. If his team wasn't up 15 at half, he might have been played sooner.
          First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.

                  I will be joining you guys shortly. My Xbox One has been ordered.

                  I got AC4 as well as I have been dying for anything that resembled a open world pirate game.

                    I read a tip that if you press A exactly at the "17,000 hours" part of the intro, it works, and you'll be able to navigate the menus. Shockingly, it did.

                    2K says they have a patch coming this week that will address this.
                    I'm now facing this same issue. I quit, launched again, pressed A as the video begins, then pressed it a few more times for good measure, and it didn't help. Am I supposed to press and hold A, am I supposed to only tap A one time and then wait?

                    *edit* I got it. I powered off my Xbox, and when I turned everything back on a couple minutes later, tapping A once and then letting the video finish without doing anything further seems to have done it.

                      This patch ****ed up everything. I can't get into MyGM. I am not going to even load my career I don't want to **** it up.

                        it appears to have fixed the menu freeze, though.

                        It wasn't about being the team everyone loved, it was about beating the teams everyone else loved.

                        Division Champions 1955, 1956, 1988, 1989, 1990, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
                        Conference Champions 1955, 1956, 1988, 2005
                        NBA Champions 1989, 1990, 2004

                          The game was perfect for me before the patch. MyGm and MyCareer were working perfect. Now every time I enter myGm it takes me back to the main menu. I just don't get it. They better fix it fast.


                          I am not going to be able to play the game until they patch this. Not a big deal, but I had some free time this weekend so it is kind of a bummer.

                            Just got notified mine is on the way. Anyone have Uverse set up with their system? How easy is the setup for the TV interface.

                              You just have to go through a few steps telling it what your equipment setup is, your provider, that kind of thing. You can have it so that turning on your xbox (by voice or otherwise) automatically has the kinect turn on your TV, your Uverse box, and if you have an audio receiver that too.

                              My provider isn't listed so I don't get the full experience, but I think in your case you'll likely be fine, and if so once it knows your provider, your specific box, and your local channel lineup, you can just use the xbox for everything, short of perhaps DVR functionality, but all the means is grabbing your usual TV remote for that part, which is what I do for all my TV stuff after I tell the Xbox to go to TV.

                                Thanks for the info. The media integration is what really sold me plus some of the exclusive games.

                                Cannot wait to sail the high seas and kill Templars.
