    I understand, I just thought the human player Season/Dynasty would reflect/mimic the true NBA season. I thought if a team had a really off night I thought whenver you got to that game in your season your team would struggle that's all. Even if you were 10 games into your season and the Real NBA was at game #3 it would at least use the DNA from up to that point. Just a misunderstanding on my part that is all. Love the game just feel bad that I did not take the time to read everything before my purchase. I still would recommend it to potential buyers. Peace!!!

      Pistons.com lists Hunter as a FA, but McDDyess is added and will be in the first-day season update.

        I thought in franchise mode, tendencies do change, not in accordance with reallife obviously, but with whats going on in the game.

          Im sure that this is the case Reuben. I know what guys are saying but for a first year implementation and asking something that only makes sense to a degree that miniscule in the scheme of things is a little crazy imo.

            I understand that some sort of season mode without trades linked to daily DNA updates would be cool, I just don't know exactly how that makes sense.

            I'm just trying to understand what everyone expected exactly, because I just don't quite get it I think.
            This is how I thought it would be.


            Lets say Chris Paul in real life is a penatrator and all he did before this season was drive to the basket in real life. Now lets say in 2008-9, he develops a great 3 point shot and shoots from there much more often. In my franchise, the game will still base Chris Paul off of last year's tendencies and he wont//shoot or make 3s often.

              Not crazy if you thought thats what they promised. I just dont get the hype for a feature that only matters in exhibition. I mean its cool but how long can exhibition games intrest you.

                Re: DNA updates

                I hate to keep this going guys, but I am still confused about one aspect.

                I UNDERSTAND that the game does not update during franchise in accordence to what is happening in real life.

                What I want to know is once I start my dynasty, can I (by the way I play the game) influence a players progression or "DNA" in FRANCHISE ONLY????
                If I make Rasheed Wallace more of a downlow player, will the FRANCHISE make Sheeds tendencies (in FRANCHISE ONLY) to be more of a low post player?

                Again, I understand how DNA works, I just want to know if the game will adapt in franchise/player progression to your personal tendencies with certain players.

                  I agree with you to an extent but did they promise this?

                    KDRE I can't find where it was promised but by their explanation I feel we where led to believe this was the case. Read the back of the box and it offers these features. Grant it they did not say it was for Season/Dynasty/ nor Play Now. How hard would it have been for them to say by the way it is for Play now games? It's still a great game and I can't take that away I feel it is a great purchase but I would have liked to know what exactly what the features did. It's not just gamers on this site but other sites were thinking this was going to carry over. As Pared summed up my feelings. YOU MAD!!! Hopefully something like this can be implemented in future versions of the game. Peace!!!!

                      Now that the disappointment has settled. I think I am gonna keep it and wait for DNA to kick in when the Season starts and go for it. I just love the way the game plays. Thanks for all who helped me understand this. Peace!!!!

                        Re: DNA updates

                        unless there was a realtime dynasty mode feature, i dont see how that would be possible. it really defyes common sense imo.. imagine hearing that Randolph gets injured in real life. youre the knicks playing, they will have to either replicate the injury happening or say he was injured after you play... what about tendencies and ratings.. imagine youre chris paul and you CONTINUE to drive during the entire franchise mode, but in real life, he developes a three pt shot.. It just doesnt make sense what they apparently were offering to us

                          Yeah, that's why I don't completely follow. I know it'd be cool to have some sort of season mode where it just used the current DNA, but overall I just get confused with what people actually want.

                            YES!

                            With what YOU'RE doing in that mode. Seperate from what's happening in the NBA. You guys are even confusing me !

                              "Play Now" or exhibition is the most used mode in NBA LIVE.

                                ye what the USER is doing.
                                but what about the opponents players. they won't change.
                                like i said earlier, nate robinson never changed last year in 5 dynasty seasons.

                                i didnt like all that.
