    Re: NBA Live 09 Patch Released, Impressions Here

    I'll try to post some vids for you bls. I jsut played a defensive game out of my mind against this guy who was trying every bit of cheese in the book with chandler trying to get it to him all game. I shut him down and held him to 48 pts. I won 60-48. He was a classic cheeser and he couldnt get out on the break on me. I just run back and protect. It's not that hard. Game ended he shot 43% and i shot 46% adn it was a defensive battle. He was really good defensively as well. It was so much fun even though he was a cheeser because i took him completely out of his game. The AI since they patched it much quicker to cut off the lane and get back. It just needs a little help and you just have to be aware where the weak spots are.

      Well I wouldnt really call them fastbreaks there more just long passes up the court for an easy 2 and if after a made basket most of the time. Im not sure how your able to switch to the closes man and move him because on my game if somebody throws the ball all the way up the court and say for instance Wallace is back ( I run with the Pistons) when I switch to him and try to move over to the person that has the ball going towards the basket I CANNOT MOVE WALLACE. Im not sure what other way to put it. He's STUCK in either one of those shuffling or back pedaling animations. Its like even though I switched to him it feels like the CPU still has him. Theres like a force shield there or somethin nothing at all I can do.

      And even if i just let the CPU try to stop the guy goig towards the basket they dont even bother going over there either, there still looking for there man. Thats the best way I can put it. If anyone or you know of some software I can use to record my games online just let me know and Ill get the material needed to record it and show you.

        Try with the Point Guard, run into your paint and put infront the big man who will receive the pass.
        This can be very usefull, believe.

          Yeah this helps sometimes. But alot of times there big is already down the court before the pg can get there. And it's not possible on missed buckets.

            Then if the user is boring with his style:
            When the point guard cant do it call the intencional foul to stop the easy BIG MEN fastbreak, i know that it is no sportmanship but is a real basketball tactic. (Run the easy BIG MEN fastbreak is not a real basketball tactic)

              I bought the game over the weekend, so I have nothing pre patch to compare it to. Really liking it though and want to keep playing it so that I get better. Right now I am terrible at D, and still learning the play calling nuisances.

              I can easily see myself playing this for a while. It is a little rough in some areas, but very realistic to the real NBA game IMO. With Beluba on board and the Live team getting our feedback, I am very excited to see what can be done in the future.

                  I would rent it first. I wouldn't trade 2k in until after the patch.

                    renting it assures him of no DNA and no patch though right?

                      I know he can still get the patch with a rental because thats through xbox live but DNA won't be available unless you buy it new or over xbox live.

                          I'm playing default superstar 9-10 minute quarters post patch and see very good results. Not sure about everyone else.
