It has to go through the certification process so it's a matter of weeks not days. Also, we want to wait til the game is in more peoples' hands so we can fix as many gripes as possible before locking it down. It will be worth the wait though.

Thanks man...you are a godsend for us Live fans

Yeah that's probably the best way to go about it... To ensure that everything that can be fixed, will be fixed. Thanks Beluba. Appreciate the response.

Not sure you're familiar with this particular gripe, but the Off-Ball Direct Player Control is getting exploited online. A lot of guys are using it to place big guys in optimal positions for instant dunks and layups.

Works wonderfully in offline ball, but I'm wondering if you could possibly disable it altogether for online play (much like how auto double teams isn't a selectable option)

Congrats on your success though, I'm playing the hell out of your game!

Even if you manually guard the offball player? You can't intercept the pass or anything? We can try something... but it'll be risky.

We haven't published specifics of what the patch will contain but I'll post something when we get closer to its release. But yes, the postup button will be in it.

Great news

Re: Manual Post to be included in a patch?

lets not take this for granted. I know that the devs are always on the site but lets really say thanx to OS and EA for the interaction that we have with them. You really feel like they want their game to get better which is why i dont understand all the EA bashing in other places. Keep up the good work. And MIKE thanx for bringing basketball back to EA and competition back to the marketplace

Thank you
OS team and EA Team

Try jumping to deflect the alley-oop or jump to block after the player has caught the ball.

I know it's early, but I'm going to try and keep at it to find workarounds to fight it. But with the individual play momentum, it's hard to keep up with the Kobe's and Odom's of the world when they're weaving through the defense while I get caught up in the traffic.

As far as I'm concerned, just putting this on your radar is a win for me. Between you and Marcus, I'm sure you'll know very soon whether this is a huge problem. I'd hate for this to be the new pick 'n roll scenario at this year's Live 10 national tournament. :wink:

Re: Manual Post to be included in a patch?

I was wondering why i couldn't post up in the demo,lookin' on this

Re: Manual Post to be included in a patch?

This is great news. The lack of a manual post up button was the only reason I wasn't going to buy the game. This changes things now.

I second this. The past 4 years I've had no respect for NBA Live, they've quickly re-earned my respect. I'm hoping this translates to sales though, because ultimately that's all that matters.
