NBA Live 14 is expected to bring some new things to NBA gaming in the fall of this year. They have already released BounceTek, new technology that is supposed to change dribbling within an NBA videogame. Another new feature EA Sports is introducing is CourtQ and, if done properly, this feature could really help EA Sports who is trying to rebuild the NBA Live Franchise.
According to EA Sports.com, CourtQ is “the brain of NBA Live 14.” The website says each player in the game is made based upon more than 70 stats and tendencies identical to the scouting reports NBA coaching staffs receive.
Additionally, according to “NBA Live 14” Executive Producer Sean O’Brien during the game’s presentation at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), the stats and player tendencies will be accurate up to the hour.
If EA Sports is able to pull this off—along with respectable graphics and fluid player movement—“NBA Live 14” will help EA Sports on its way to rebuilding in the NBA gaming market. Regardless, the potential is there.
Imagine you are following the NBA season and you notice that Derrick Rose is beginning to get hot from the right corner three,or he is shooting the floater from the right block more often. It would be amazing if you are playing against the Chicago Bulls in “NBA Live 14” and videogame Rose has also changed his tendencies to match that of real-life Rose.
Court Q is just one of the ways NBA Live could improve itself but gamers still have to be cautious. EA Sports has not announced a release date for the game as of yet. Also, NBA Live’s track record—the game failed to exist three years in a row—does not incite trust in fans.
If they are going to make a comeback, the game has to deliver on everything the developers promised.
