E3 2013: NBA Live 14 includes BounceTek for dribbling, live roster

4.6

Adding to the list of jargon terms applied to the tech in EA Sports games, NBA Live 14 includes "BounceTek" physics for dribbling, which apparently improves ball physics, instead of merely expressing them as part of the player character's hand motions.

More immediately understandable is the way the basketball game handles roster updates. In-game stats will be tweaked in near real time, "an hour after it happens" according to EA's E3 presentation. From indefinite delays to instant updates! That's a big promise for NBA Live.

imgur I can't see this competing with the 2k series.

I doubt that it will be able to. 2K series has such a large fan base.

That is so cool, I hope they put the real time roster changer in more games like NHL 14 and NFL 25.
