    Re: Simulated Stats...Are they fixed?

    So simple question, it's just a yes or no answer.

    Will I have guys like Kobe and Lebron average 18 ppg?

    Are the stats THAT messed up?

    Will it be patchable??

    If yes, then I will wait a year and play 2k10, if no then I will purchase this game first thing tomorrow morning.

      No.

      You'll get different results. Sometimes a player has worse stats because he's been injured for alot of the season.

      I'm looking into tweaking things at the moment.

        I don't believe in next year because dynamic season is the future, not my future but the future. i don't see dynasty as ever being a focal point because it doesen't have the following of a madden franchise or mlb ownermode. previous games had great versions of the modes and built a following to were companies were willing to make whole games out of that one mode (Head Coach, Front office manager).No basketball game has ever had a franchise mode great enough to build that following(if i am wrong direct me to it). i just wish they would have told us sooner i know its not smart to put the negatives out about your game but there have been plenty of threads on franchise and they were not responded to a simple not this year guys would have done the trick. (i wanna scream) i will still purchase live 10 because im a live fan but my replay value dropped 2 notches.

          Great to hear, so I'll be getting realistic stats?

          Will there be a patch coming out?

          I really want to go out and buy this game because of so much work you guys put into it, it's just I don't know how I'll last without a simable dynasty mode.

          I'm a dynasty guy, and I love what you guys did to the gameplay.

          And also, thanks a lot for responding to my post quickly. Another reason why I want to support EA, because of your presence in the community.

            Hopefully EA brings in a new crew to do the dynasty.

                We did tune the sim engine, trade logic and rookie generation, but it's not perfect by any means. We have some legacy code in there that makes for some awkward situations. We (obviously) didn't focus much attention on dynasty this season, but plan to put more attention on it this coming year. Apologies for this guys.
                Thanks for the honesty. It will save me from buying Live this year. I am sure the game plays great and looks nice, but without a functioning dynasty and sim engine, the game would be worthless for me.

                Again... I appreciate the honesty.

                  Doing the same thing, as much as I want to buy, it's definitely a rent for me. Just gotta wait for next year...dynasty mode is that important to me..and please for the love of God, add import draft classes!!!

                    So nice to beable to talk and have the head guy of Live Stephan talking and responding to us. How far we come in sport video games where we acually can give a ton of feedback and help with the dirction of a game.

                    To be honest though EA is a huge company and I love that Live busted their butts on gameplay which is the heart and soul of a sports game. But you also need great rosters which Live also has. And you need a great working franchise or dynasty which Live fails. Those are the 3 core things for me and im sure most people.

                    I stoped buying Live when Xbox 360 came out and went to NBA 2k. last year I got sick of NBA 2k never improving for the last few years and sick of all the points scored in the paint and no mid range game. I bought NBA Live for the first time for the new systems and it was fresh and I enjoyed the rosters with DNA and a mid range game, but it was too broken still to play alot of and I just wanted to get a feel for the game for next year bc I knew it was back.

                    My point I made earlier about EA being a huge company is they could of had or hired a few more people to work on dynasty and stats, and even real trades. Thats a game breaker for most of the hardcore players that come to these forums. How you miss something like this is crazy. How do you not know what the customer wants. Its not rocket science and we have been telling you for years.

                    I am not gonna buy a game that is broken! Few people even care about a dynamic season or any of that garbage. Its a nice addition but like they say in sports focus on the fundamentals. Game play, franchise/dynasty, Rosters.

                    I love playing a season in my games and I wont it to be as real as possable. I am a franchise or dynasty guy. I pick a team do a fantasy draft and play my season and play every game. I like real stats for the cpu and there games. I want to see accurate stats put up. I dont want to see the best player in the NBA on avg'n 20ppg. And I dont want to see stupid trades made by the compueter that would never happen in real life.

                      Stephan so far you DNA and ratings for Live are the best for a sports game I have ever seen. Best idea ever! I played Live 09 and I dont think im buying Live 10 because of the broken dynasty. If it helps I didnt even consider buying 2k this year. And if I did have to choose I would choose Live. This year though Im not satisfied with any of the basketball games and maybe college Bball game theres still a chance but for now I guess its gonna be along year. first time in like 10 years i have not bought a basketball game on release day.
