Re: Official NBA Live 10 Impressions Thread

Just played my first game. All-Star, 12 minutes. Don't be shocked by the CPU point totals as it took me probably a quarter and a half to get into the swing of things.

Thunder (me) @ Sixers (CPU)
Points............93-124
Field Goal %.........47.1%-42.5%
3 Point Shot %.....25%-33%
FT.......8/15-15/18 (I bumped these sliders up by 5)
Rebounds.......49-51
Assists........19-18
Blocks.......8-8
Steals........1-17
Fast Break Points......6-20


Thunder (me)
Kristic 10 Points 7 Rebounds 5/7 FG
Weaver 11 Points 2 Rebounds 1 Assist 4/5 FG
Green 10 Points 6 Rebounds 2 Assists 2 Blocks 5/11 FG
Durant 27 Points 6 Rebounds 1 Assist 2 Blocks 11/28 FG
Westbrook 19 Points 2 Rebounds 10 Assists 9/17 FG

Sixers (CPU)
Marshall 10 Points 6 Rebounds 3/11 FG
Kapono 23 Points 5 Rebounds 1 Assist 7/16 FG

is 17 steals supposed to be indicative of a sim?

I would say all of them came in the paint. Same issue with the demo if you fool around too much in the lane, you'll get stripped.

It is what it is.

Umm...I would say if you over dribble, you should be punished. But out the box, this needs to be tweaked. Sliders have to be adjusted for this.

Re: Official NBA Live 10 Impressions Thread

Since I was all over the board wondering about any dynamic commentary in Live I figured I would post my own answer.

Unfortunately, there really isn't any. I played 5 games mid way through season and the only thing the commentators talked about was what was going on in the current game. I was really hoping to hear some more advanced story-lines.

Other than that, Live is solid and builds on 09 very well. Exciting sounds, crowds, and in game highlights. The freestyle passing is a great addition. I was able to pull off some true point guard plays driving to the lane. Keeping some dribble moves on the right stick helps as well.

My only gripes so far, are the body block shots and too often players lose the ball when driving. I know that was to tone down penetration, but it happens a little too often. Maybe I just need to get use to playing.

Re: Official NBA Live 10 Impressions Thread

So, the only way to view the signature shots in motion is to go back to the hanger right?

You can't view them ala 2k right there at the select screen?

Yea, probably right, but was hoping to have it in my own dynasty. I like to create myself and it would be cool to hear the announce say that I am in the MVP race or how I just dropped 15 and 10 on the Spurs (living my basketball dreams)

Re: Official NBA Live 10 Impressions Thread

My next game was Knicks (me) home against the Bobcats (CPU). 12 minute quarters. Bobcats won 101-99. This was so much different than my first game. Very slow-paced. Duhon led us with 20. Raja Bell had around 23 and Tyson Chander had 9 Points and 16 Rebounds.

This game really plays at an NBA-game pace out of the box.

It has alot of polishing to do but it's definately headed in the right direction.

I was playing the Knicks game at MSG and some family came over. They said to me and I quote, "I didn't know basketball season started already."

It wasn't the look of the game. It was the sound of it.

Re: Official NBA Live 10 Impressions Thread

Sorry for starting a chain of non-impression posts...but back to impressions.

Not sure about trade logic I simmed all the way to the last regular season game and notice something pretty crazy. Lebron and Delonte West on the Clippers.

Playoff atmosphere was ok, not exceptional. It seemed like it was the same up and down noise level as a regular season game except with white towels waiving. This was a little disappointing.

The flow of the game is very good to me. I played the game against the Clippers and Lebron but the computer still made him the focus of the team. Its like they changed their plays once he was added.

Animations are improved with the freestyle passing. I pulled off a crazy jumper to around the back pass to Derek Fisher for 3 with Kobe. It was sweat. (Wish I knew about saving replays).

Can't wait to get online.
