Pros:

1. Footplanting
2. Defense fronting the post
3. Boxing out
4. Change of speed
5. Dribbling seems smoother

Cons:

1.Offensive players standing around (Hasn't been fixed)
2. Hard to guard on-ball
3. Still stiff animations
4. Animations from 14 still present
5. No help defense

how can you tell it's hard to guard on-ball from a video?

Forget 3 weeks!.. From this gameplay I just watched they need 3 more years..

The harden play looked ok but the rest was pretty bad imo. They need a new engine! Not a extra 3 weeks. On next gen systems I refuse to lower my expectations sorry live.

#TheirTimeStillHasNotCome lol

Actually it looks the exact same as the screenshots, probably because they were taken straight from the game.

Dear Chest Pass,

How have you been? Haven't seen you in awhile. Should I be worried? Miss you!

Sincerely,

Fundamentals

Can't put my finger on it, but that Harden drive looks weird to me.

NO SLIDERS IN NBA LIVE THIS YEAR....

The LeBron dunk was pretty smooth
 
# 169 SageInfinite @ 09/08/14 08:13 PM
Not as bad as I thought it would be. Definitely animates better than I thought it would. Graphics look pretty good. I liked the bench reaction on the Bron dunk, but something was off with the dunk. I don't think I like how stiff the hand looks coming off the rim, wasn't bad, just awkward looking. Still something stiff about the game, not as bad as 14(just an awful game imo), but still could stand some improvement. Liked pretty much everything about the Harden play. Didn't notice anything off the bat that was wack. Lebron pull up play was ok too.

Something about most of EA's sports games since last gen, they just look stiff to me. Fifa(NHL is decent too) is the only one where I'm pretty amazed by the movement at times, everything else is just stiff, goofy and awkward mostly.

I wouldn't mind playing NBA Live this year, not enough for a release day purchase yet, but if I got it as a gift, I definitely wouldn't mind trying it out.

Wait what? No sliders? They don't have the tech for sliders? Wow! They do know it's almost 2015 right? You gotta be kidding me lol. I can't even begin to take this game serious smh. It's just getting sad at this point. I almost feel embarrassed for them.

Looks better than live 14 to me
 
# 172 Hassan Darkside @ 09/08/14 08:19 PM
Looks much better than any other Live offering in recent memory but the animations still live a bit to be desired.

Pathetic news though. There's really no excuse for this same song and dance again. For every step forward EA is taking, they're taking 2 steps backward.

And when I saw the thread title, I was thinking we'd at least get a quarter or half of gameplay as a consolation. Instead we get 50 seconds of video.

I'm stunned by all the comments in an hour. I literally figured nobody cared about this game but apparently a lot of people are begging for competition against 2k. So are people really sick of 2k? I am but that doesn't mean much.
 
# 175 CBfromCU32 @ 09/08/14 08:25 PM
& Im not the guy to bash and throw shade on the game but I get so frustrated when I watch bad gameplay, read the threads, and still see "looks good".. Like wtf? That didn't look good at all to me..

But that's just my opinion so it doesn't really matter. One thing Live did do tho was push 2k to make the best game possible. Always good to have competition

I cared I am buying my first basketball game in a long time this year. I liked how the previous trailer looked but these videos were pretty underwhelming. I will still hold off on buying any game until after Live comes out but right now I am def leaning in the other direction.

I love 2K, a lot more than some people seem to since I play it nearly daily. That being said, I would love another basketball game to change up the spectrum. I'm sure 2K themselves would like it too because it would challenge them and you know they'd rise to the occasion.

Here's the thing about the release date. You as an individual Live fan can say "It's okay, they're refining the game." I'm sure it is okay to you and it may win some people over playing the game eventually. The problem is that a forum of three or four dedicated fans isn't going to make this game money. Breaking promises after already putting out a not good game last year is only going to make people hesitant to ever give the game another chance. You can only be burned so many times before you just get tired of it and move on. I feel bad saying this because the team involved HAS been active on these forums. I'm sure they work hard but it sounds like an organized mess on the Live side of things and that leads to broken promises.

Why can't people just be interested in an alternative? You don't have to be sick of a game or series to be interested in what else is out there.

I hate what the lack of sports games has done to gamers. Games can't coexist, we gotta pick and choose sides. That **** is wack.

If this is true, then I'm not buying.

There's absolutely zero excuse for a sports game not to ship with sliders.
