The number one goal for us as a team is to make the best hoops sim on the market. I wouldn't be here otherwise.

KG might be out for the rest of the season.........if that's the case, the Bulls have pretty good shot.

The Raps might have done the Bulls a favour by running them off the court last night....LOL.

Re: Ask the devs a question

Beluba please tell me you guys will have a SIM ranked lobby. I'm fully aware that you guys "need" or "want" to make the game "fun" but would it be too much to ask for a sim lobby? One that requires some thought and not just going nut with a star player. I don't know how this game plays now as I'll admit that I haven't played it beyond the 09 demo but assuming it isn't quite all the way sim could you guys make a sim lobby?

Beluba...One of the biggest issues for NBA Live is the lack of animations...Since NBA Live 09 had a limit amount of animations, players would do a certain animations that was incorrect for the situation because there was no animation for that situation which then would cause a herky-jerky animation...so my question is, can you give us an estimate on how many new animations will be in Live 10.

LOL, you're a hard one man. I've never been anything but "honest."

As for the team play glitch, it looks like it needs patched which is something we can't do at this point.

Why do you want it Interlaced ? thats what you meant by 1080i you mean 1080p I gather.

I have a 1080i only HDTV. If a game doesn't support at least 1080i resolution then my game gets down-scaled to 480p. Its a flaw in the PS3 hardware since it doesn't have its own capable built-in HD scaler. Developers have been able to work around that (if they so choose) by physically placing upscale ability in the actual software (Uncharted and Killzone 2 are examples of this). The Madden devs confirmed in their forum that they will indeed support 1080i this year so I'm hoping the Live crew does the same.

Re: Ask the devs a question

How's that team defense logic and implementation coming along, Beluba?

My dream is to one day penetrate, kick out to a shooter and swing it to another shooter in the corner for 3 while the defense is collapsing and then rotating.

Have yet to see that in a hoops game. Is it in Live 10?

We're doing a lot of very cool things with the AI this year... both on offense and defense. Novell, one of our producers, is spearheading our AI work and he really knows his X's and O's.

Most of you guys know animation is a huge passion of mine and we recognized that a massive facelift was needed in that regard. As for a number... I don't have an exact count off hand but it's easily in the thousands with more being added every day.
