Some nice info there. Definitely worth checking out, but a quick recap:

  • The development team has scanned faces for around 70% of the league, and are planning on scanning the rookies during the NBA Summer League.
  • Currently, the team plans to scan more faces during the 2015 season and push them through along with their other content updates.
  • Specialised character artists have been tapped to create the faces for players they haven't been able to scan yet.
  • Player body types are being completely re-done.
  • Much attention has been paid to improving gameplay, including the core systems and responsiveness on the sticks.
  • Three big areas of improvement in NBA Live 15: visuals, gameplay, and onboarding (teaching users how to play).
  • More screenshots (and video) coming soon. No exact word on when just yet.
  • Jerseys and accessories will be improved (also being scanned). Scans do not affect cloth physics; two different systems that work parallel to each other.
  • There's a new approach to lighting in NBA Live 15, which has helped improve the visuals.

This sounds like a great thing, but it was also an advertised feature for 14. Did anybody notice any new updates midway through the season?

None that I can remember offhand. Quite possibly, it was shelved due to them scanning faces for NBA Live 15 and working on the patch for NBA Live 14. I believe missing players that were added received them though; a few certainly received portraits, at least.

Can't wait to hear about the game. I'm glad about "onboarding" and hope they give heavy tutorials. If only because it's my little theory I like to tell myself, if they include lots of tutorials then there'll be lots of depth. And hopefully visuals include animations... I'm worried about contact. Hoping for something new.
