Is it just me?

Or does live seem to complicated now why does they have to put some many different things in the game like you have the lockdownstick,Freestyle Air,Freestyle Superstars flicking the analog stick for different moves it just seems you have to do so much.

Personally, I think that having all that extra Freestyle Superstar stuff is not needed. The game is getting unnecessarily overdone in my opinion. Still, I'm not really into the Live presentation of basketball so I really shouldn't make a remark. I like the older way of doing things where if you are skilled to do it, it gets done through the calculations of your attributes and all. It's cool though for some. It does help to decrease people who don't have the skill to not be doing things out of themself. It's dependent upon what you're looking for.

It is something that that crossed my mind for the all around players, but hopefully its set-up to become second-nature. I think that when all-star dunk contest came out, some wanted the ability to have those dunks mixed in with gameplay and EA took that route. As long as I can play the game without having to learn EVERY type of stick flip for everyday baketball functionality I'll be happy. I love both EA and 2k's basketball games, each for different reasons. I dont think EA is going to make a pure sim type game, they could have gone any route after last year if they wanted to match 2k's style of play, I just hope they dont make it too complicated. If you take EA's graphics and atmoshphere and add 2k gameplay IMO....... wow

Co-Sign. It was kool last year the way they had the freestyle superstars on current gen. It seems like now they've over complicated it but not in a realistic way. Its just not needed IMO. Just vary the animations enough to make it realistic.

I would only do those cool dunks using the analog stick on a fast break. Which shouldn't be a problem because there seems to be a lot of fastbreaks.

i hate all the HUD taking up the screen with all this crap. 06 had the ability to tuirn it all off, including the 'circle player indicator' making it more like a tv style presentation. here's hoping the trend continues.
