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.

The last NBA Live game I played was NBA Live 09.

Does this mean things like ball pressure can be changed to affect gameplay?

I can't wait for this. I love NBA. This seems like it would be a huge improvement to the game, probably positive.

I have not played live in a long time. I can't wait for this game to come out.
