NBA Live 16 Gameplay Video (IGN)

Nice, but they still need to work on passing animations. Passing still looks "floaty". Size up animation looks unnatural for some reason.

[The 24th Letter]

Love the pass by LeBron on the P&R, but they HAVE to fix that transitional animation from Mosgov....I was hoping all that was cleaned up...

Everything else looked good....but that stuck out like a sore thumb....

This is not a 1080p 60FPS feed, so the fluidity of the animations are obviously suffering. That's why when the game is stopped, for instance during replays, the quality of the visuals flourish.

Having said that, I'm with some of you guys: some legacy issues still present. But I'm seeing way more positive than negative and the fact that the game is being shown this early (and already playable) only means they'll have more time to iron things out before release.

I love how they implemented a new shooting system/meter. It looks polished and simple to master. Also, the AI off ball offensive movements seem ever flowing. Those two in my opinion, change the game for a more simulation feel. Lastly, I like how they also added a defensive man guarding, spacing line to whoever you defend with.

This game immediately looks better than last year's, and the year before. But (at an initial pop, playing something like 6 possessions) it still doesn't look like it's in the same arena as 2K. I'm listening. I'm interested. I want to know more about their modes and how the game is actually going to be played. But, day one? I'm leaning 2K until I see a reason to do something different.

Even releasing at a lower price point might be enough, like NFL 2K5.

I just played a game of Live 15 and I see zero difference between that and this.

Would love to see a side by side because besides the couple of things mentioned in this thread.... i dont see the big jump people keep saying

[ThaLiveKing]

I can already say this game is improved...That jumper was crazy fluid. the way you can come out of dribble move is way more controllable, floater looked nice. Bounce passing off the pick n roll, looked way better cause of the spacing.

I see some of the same celebrations but:

*I REALLY, REALLY HOPE THEY TOOK OUT THAT CLAP DANCE AFTER AN AND1. One of the most annoying celebrations in the history of videos game lol.

Also, they got the All IN CLE shirts in the stands

Edit:

Some of the dribbles are too slow, but that may just be the animations, they really got the lighting down pat this year, I'm watching this on my 50 inch off my Xbox One and it looks amazing
