You have a thrilling game with the Bulls going down to the wire (assuming D Rose doesnt turn into an alen) You hit the game tying shot to go into OT....then the game just.......ends.

This isnt a "John Salmons doesnt have a headband" issue,
...Its a part of bball. Sure, the devs know about it...but I certainly cant fault posters for being upset about it everytime it happens.

NEW RULE:
gotta win by 2 when there is a goaltending call lol

i hear you

so is this the patch we been hearin about?

anybody remember how in 2009 live when you dribbled toward the basket you would just get sucked into an animation and the ball handler andthe defender would be stuck together as you performed your dribbling moves i know it wasnt like that before the patch but i noticed a video on youtube after the patch and i saw that once or twice, is this now like the old live cause 09 was garbage and 2010 without the patch was amazing to me except i noticed even on the hardest difficulty it was so simple to cross your man over and get to the hoop everytime

is EA waiting to release the PS3 patch to fix the problems from the 360 patch? Or is this totally up to Sony now, when to release the patch?

I havent downloaded the patch yet. I was wondering based on the patch impression thread whether the improvements that were made could simply be reached w/slider qnd global player edit changes. For example, supposedly the patch has helped to stop some of the herky jerky animations. I lowered the agility slider and have reduced the herky jerkyness of players. I also lowered the vertical attribute so that the dunks look realistic. I lowered 3p shooting tendency to cut down on the 3's so that temas average about 18 per game. I also lowered game spd to make the pace a bit more realistic. I tinkered with fouls to get realistic results as well as alter hands in post and perimeter. Note that I predominately watch CPU games. At this point is there anything that th patch can offer me to make it worth downloading?

thats a tough one, for me personally i love the post button because i was getting ripped alot waiting for it to trigger automatically, the movement change is subtle unless you are a animation buff who pays close attention, subtle changes all around i cant remember the entire list, oh the fade away 3's and the ability to do floaters are manual, if you can live with out these roster edits can hold you over IMO until a fix, but a post button goes a long way to more control

I know its not sony's fault. I guarntee EA is to blame. They probly just lied and said they released the patch the same as 360s.

EA is shaddy as it gets.

That's an ignorant comment to make.

Lay off the company bashing or you will be gone.

Well, the past few days I've stepped down from "Superstar" difficulty to "All-Star" difficulty. This move was definitely for the best.

Prior to the release of the patch, I had been regularly crushing the CPU opponent on the "Superstar" level, to the point where I was beginning to become somewhat bored with Live 10 (as much as I love the game).

Post patch, I played continued to play on "Superstar", but it was just too annoying sometimes... almost to the point of where I began to feel like no matter what I did or how well I played, the CPU was going to defeat me. (A feeling I'm familiar with after playing NBA 2K9 all last season)

Now, on "Superstar", the CPU just seems to gassed up, especially when playing the best teams in the league. I'm fine with superstar opposing players lighting me up, but when Daniel Gibson shoots a step-back 3 on me when he's in the Cavaliers center logo (not an exaggeration), and kills me going to the hoop on the pick an roll converting numerous and 1s, I think it's only natural to become frustrated. I played the Lakers (lost by 8), Cavaliers (won by 9) and Celtics (tied; overtime bug occured), and felt hopeless at times in each game. It also seems like the amount of missed dunks which occur are an overdose, as when I stepped down to "All-Star" there were a ton of the same scenario dunks which I cleanly made that would've clanked off the rim had I still been on "Superstar".

I believe I'd also previously said that the CPU's shot selection is questionable at best, but again, this seems to be exclusive to the "Superstar" level. [Ex. Gibson step-back from close to center] On "All-Star", the CPU's shot selection is more realistic, rater than draining numerous, well defended, low percentage shot like I'd previously experienced.

So... now that I'm done with playing on the "Superstar" level, I'm absolutely in favor of the patch... pending the fixes on the few bugs that came along with it.

It definitely, without question, makes for a better basketball game.

So a word of advice for any fellow "Superstar" difficulty users on the PS3 who may find the game frustrating. Take the step down to "All-Star". The CPU will play much more realistic, while still giving you a challenge, unlike the "All-Star" level prior to the release of the patch.

Honestly, I don't think I'll ever go back to the "Superstar" level, unless for whatever reason the things I was experiencing are corrected with the DNA updates. (I don't think they will be, but we can only wait and see)

Cliff notes:

- All-Star difficulty for most realistic basketball experience
- Superstar difficulty can make you feel hopeless at times (Can provide further explanation if need be)
- Patch does indeed largely improve Live 10
- Once the bugs get ironed out that came came along with the patch (No overtime, no points awarded when CPU goaltends user, CPU fouling when leading by 1 in the closing seconds, CPU dribbling out the ball in OT when losing, no points awarded/CPU inbound on partially blocked user dunk attempts the still end up going in), Live 10 is the best basketball game on the market, hands down.
