Yeah, call me skeptical... that has to be the total amount in the game, including variations. Good call fellas.

Devs? Steve? Care to comment on this bit? Very interested... I'm of the belief that it's 392 for the Lakers alone including variations simply because they said that each team has authentic sets that that's what was available in the demo to Steve's Lakers. But it does seem like a staggering amount were every team to have even close to that amount... some elaboration would be helpful.

We'll have to wait and see. Who knows with Synergy what they were able to come up with.

I bet the easiest team to do was Cleveland though.

Their only plays are Iso with Lebron, or pick and roll with Lebron..haha

It's great you can pick which side to lay up on but if defenders warp towards you there's no relevency to picking a side. The defender should pick a side to jump to and if it's wrong no block and no warp.

you make the decision to finish to a side based on where the defender is playing you.

Im loving all them small little details!!! I also like how boxing out is sounding. You could fight for position and rebounds look smooth too. Really nice.

Hey Steve did you see guys with new and improved jumshot animations?? (Rashad Lewis, Gasol, Kobe leaners, etc..) Thanks.

Re: NBA Live 10 Demo Hands-On Preview

It could be around 11 to 12 plays per position with 7 variations each play...

Something like that.

It's like when a developer says we have 15,000 sneakers... but it's really 15 sneakers with 1,000 color variations... not really the same thing.

**authentic24** · 08-21-2009, 12:38 PM

"the lakers have 392 plays to choose from and alot of them have variations" he didn't say the lakers have 15 plays to choose from with variations that total to 392 plays, come on people let's learn how to read.

Re: NBA Live 10 Demo Hands-On Preview

I'd imagine a vast majority of the 392 plays are shared with every team. Say each team has 30-40 unique variations tops.

Well, given that they've said that each team has their authentic playsets, I assume that it's 392 including variations (the same play run for a different position). Doesn't sounds too crazy to me -- if you have 40 plays with 5 players on the floor and each one could end up with the ball, that's already 200 'plays'.

But yeah, I'd like some explanation/clarification on that too, as it's almost too good to be true. I want to know how many plays the Cavs have... I'm guessing 5.

A lot of teams run simular plays out of sets like horns or floppy(which wasn't in live last year==single double screens) so I would bet that a good majority of those plays are in everyones playbook. Would only make since.

On games I have captured and broken down I have seen 6-7 teams run the same play on occassion. just for different personnel
