The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

I can't get past the 1st 3 minutes of the 1st qtr so I feel your pain. I'm having the exact same issues. Pretty close to giving up as I vowed to stand by EA early on but it's the same thing with EA time and time again. I'm just tired of buying their products and it never works as advertised out the box. Always a patch is needed. What's even crazier now is Co's are telling us that Patches are coming out even before their games are even released and I still buy it. Silly me on that one.

Both on 360? Clearing the cache is the best thing I can suggest. Not a Dynamic Season issue... games are no different there than elsewhere. You may also want to go into settings and turn on save replays to HD. Seems like bad HDs start to fail saving highlights.

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

Same thing is happening to me with the Lakers. This needs to be corrected ASAP.

Change the lineups before the tip off, seems to work for now...I'll wait until they sub in and back out to be sure.

EDIT: It worked

well hopefully it will be fixed soon. maybe its related to the problem downloading the recent dna.

it's definitely not cache related, as i've cleaned that multiple times and it still freezes (seems a lot of us have with no success) ...

and it's not a hard drive problem as my hard drive has numerous items on it and has never showed any signs of problems whatsoever ... not with any other game, nor with any content ...

it's happening to more than a few people ... so hopefully they'll take notice, and get it fixed

as mentioned above cache cleared multiple times (by others as well with no success) ...

not sure what you mean by adjusting settings to save replays to HD ... everything is set to auto save ... but i didn't see anything in settings called save replays to HD or anything like that ... can you maybe be more specific where that is so i can check it?

notwithstanding ... hopefully you guys figure this out as people are complaining about freezing in various threads throughout the board and on other boards ... so it's definitely a problem that should be checked out and fixed ...

great game ... but if you can't play it ...

I think it's in 'visual settings'.

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

Can the Live team look into the generic PA announcer for Denver games in DS? In Play Now games you get the custom calls but in DS, it's a different announcer and the calls are all generic.

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

I own both NBA live 10 and 2k10, and i try to play at least one Dynamic season game a day from each game....my question is "what is so dynamic about the dynamic season other than the DNA statistics in Live 10"? Like when i play these games I dont get the feel that i am playing a reg season game, it feels like any other game that i could have quick matched myself. I have yet to notice Marv and Steve kerr say anything relative about the current nba season. Now when i put in 2k to play there NBA today mode i get stats, socres, and convos about that teams last game. Will someone correct me if I am wrong but wasn't Live 10 suppose to have dynamic commentary and stats??

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

The "storylines" talked about at the beginning of the game is it really I think. Wish they made more sense, they always say "two of the league's best players going up against one another" and it's a Chris Paul and Dwight or something that makes no sense as a "matchup". Or they just talk about the team's leading scorer and then never mention it again.

Big disappointment on the "dynamic commentary"... it's pretty weak in Live so far. Who knows if more will get unlocked or activated via DNA as the season goes along, but I'm certainly not holding out any hope for it.

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

Yeah that is a Big disappointment considering what the comp is putting out there. I think they need to scrap their whole commentary and start from scratch to be honest....its definatley stale and not really as exciting as it used to be. And I really like Marv (my all time fave) but its time to move in another direction. I hope they can add more commentary for DS via "DNA update"

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

I've only played 2K10 in exhibition games, I haven't tested out NBA Today yet.

Does it merge the real-life stats into the mode and then change according to the games you play or is it something you just pick up and play? Do you ever save your "NBA Today"? Is it like DS where you save it as a file and continually play it throughout the year and you are basically changing the real life NBA in Live? So if you play Cavs/Celts in NBA Today and win with the Cavs does it overwrite the C's real-life win? Does it also include rewind games and accurate rosters/DNA for each game?

The Rewind thing is huge for DS, I'm obviously not going to be able to play every game in Live 10 the day it happens in IRL so being able to go back and "change the past" is great.

From my experience I can say "no" NBA today does not save every game that you play so I dont think that u are changing the fate of any team during the course of the season. What it does do is tell you about current stats, road trips or homestands that a team has. So yes it does merge current stats into the game. It also highlights upcoming games on the nba calender and the commentators talk about it. Also Cheryl Miller will have her interviews that make it sound like they had a real interview with a player or coach about a previous game. They (2k) has current player DNA in those games too, they also record all game stats so you can go back to find out what the score was to any game during the course of the season and players stats for that game. It also has how a player is trending on a day to day basis, So 2k held it down in that regards. DS is basically a stat keeper for you that will record the game you play and add it to the current data they have. They(2k) have a lot of in-depth ratings for their players and it looks like it chg's from day to day (ex. Ron artest had a 90 rated 3 and now its a 84 or 85 i believe)

I do have one question not sure if its been mentioned before but what if in Live 10 you play a DS game and lose, then rematch and win does it take into account the first game you played and lost or does it just go on by the last game played? How does that affect the teams record?

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

So basically the commentary is what's cool about NBA Today but besides that you're just playing an exhibition game with updated rosters?

[Pared]

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

Yup. You play an NBA Today game to live in the current moment. It's pretty much everything Dynamic season was touted to be aside from it saving your win/loss, stats and Rewind DNA.

It doesn't even make sense to play regular quick games anymore, since you can do that within NBA Today.

Dynamic Season has lost its luster for me with all the "incorrect" DNA comments.

I tried to play a game the other day and that alien thing happened. Maybe I'll check it out again in a month or so.

Re: The Dynamic Season Thread: Dyn-O-Mite!

Yeah the whole presentation is whats cool about NBA today....they lay it out like your watching a real game on tv....I dont get that feeling when playing DS, which is why im a little disappointed in Live's feature. But its still early, ill wait to pass final judgment until we get into the season more.
