Re: Ask the devs a question

Will it be all in one button or maybe use the right shotstick? Hmmm..

Re: Ask the devs a question

It might have modifiers to use with the button.

Re: Ask the devs a question

I'm considering switching from 2K to NBA Live, but one of the reasons I did not do it this year was that you charged extra for NBA LIVE 365 for my brother to get his rosters updated in his own account, when 2K did not. As one of the main reasons I prefer the PS3 is that me and my brother can have our own accounts and we don't need to pay extra, will this happen again in NBA LIVE 10?

Re: Ask the devs a question

I dont like this choice as well. I really prefer to decide on my own if I want to make a jump shot or drive to the basket.

Consolidating the shot mechanics into one button did not come at the expense of control. In fact, you will have a great deal more control over how you shoot the basketball in every way in Live 10. I didn't really want to "announce" this change yet because it's really just a small part of the bigger design around shooting... and it will make more sense once I explain how the whole system works.

Beluba...its like eating a pizza, you cant stop at one slice, you gotta have the whole thing LMAO. We are all flipping out now creating our own details of the 1 button idea

We're planning on something for the draft, but what you see in Madden is a bit different than what we can do for a few reasons, most importantly, when players are drafted, they aren't automatically signed to the players union which makes us unable to release screens of every player.

Re: Ask the devs a question

Will dribbling look more realistic in Live 10? In past Live games the players look as though they don't even let go of the ball when dribbling. Like the ball is just an extension of their hand. This is either do to poor ball physics, player arms being too long, or a combination of both.

Re: Ask the devs a question

Oops, my bad for putting words in your mouth, Beluba... I think you responded to a "will you use RS for shooting?" question and said that you're sticking with the button mechanic... that's where I got that from.

Anyway, that's welcome news even though I did get used to the two button system. That just opens up more real estate for other controls, which will be great. If we have more control over shooting and a button freed up for something else, I'm all for it.

Re: Ask the devs a question

how about including retro jerseys for the thunder? they are still the same franchise although they don't carry the sonics name... or how about create a team that allows you to customize logos and colors? just something simple like choosing the text so i can spell out "Seattle" or whatever on a jersey or logo... and make the jerseys green and gold...

you guys should include all-time teams in these games... like all-time bulls, all-time lakers, all-time sixers you know...

i'm looking forward to nba live next year, it's been a while...

Re: Ask the devs a question

Hey devs you do not have to answer if your not allowed to but can you guys let me know where your going with that Be a Pro mode? Is it gonna be taken out? Are you guys just gonna bring back untouched?


Maybe made into an actually be a pro mode kinda like Sony's NBA 09 series or FIFA 09's version of it? Anyways just want to know from a general standpoint where that mode is going.

Yes, Superstar mode is WAY overdue for a b-ball game (Sony's game doesn't count... SMH)... that would be great. Even with the unpolished ones in Madden 08 and whatnot, I enjoyed that mode a lot. It has way more potential in an NBA game simply because there's only 5 players on the court and personalities, team styles etc. are so exaggerated compared to football. There's tons of potential there, it's the clear evolution of the BAP mode we saw in 09, and I hope we see something along those lines for 2010.

Imagine if NBA Live10 OTP had features from the other EA sports games.

NHL 09- Be-a-pro mode.

NCAA Football 10- Teambuilder.

Tiger Woods- Gamerface.
