NBA Live 13 strategy fail or smart?

Re: NBA Live 13 strategy fail or smart?

Nobody offended me. And I don't know where did you see I was offended

Not at all. My point was that EA's not saying anything at all, but you (or we) are still talking about Live. Even if we don't know anything, we speculate.

It's not the first time that you missunderstand something I say, and I can understand it, since I know that I don't speak english very well, but seems like you think that I'm a live fan or something... Maybe because I said that I want them to release the game... I don't know, but if you really think that, you're wrong... Now post some gif or cool pic. Back in the day, it used to be the trolling game. At least now it's funny

I tend to forget that you don't speak english well, which would explain your post a little better. My point is, you clearly didn't understand my post because I never once said I don't give a **** about Live and yet that's what your post focused on, me not giving a ****. If I didn't care, I wouldn't be here. But as I've explained time and again here, I wanna see Live succeed, I've been a Live fan for a long time and I've supported them in the past. However I'm not blind and I have an opinion and two perfectly working hands so when I see people in here talking nonsense about strategies and building anticipation for a game that the general public couldn't care less about, I'm going to express that opinion. Not hating, not bashing, not picking on Live/EA, just telling the cold hard truth about what's unfolding right in front of our eyes. If guys want to live in an EA/Live bubble where it's normal for the largest publisher in the world to give one of their major/flagship properties a marketing budget of apparently $100 then maybe not coming to OS' Live forums should be an option as opposed to thinking those of us just calling them like we see it shouldn't be here.

I question as well why so many come here to rip and complain about lack of info...competition..interaction...the crap...the fools....Hate=love.. It's like you are all from single family households and just want your daddy(Live) to come home.

It's not to speculate, as you can see the thread is called 'NBA LIVE 13 STRATEGY FAIL OR SMART' it's too see what other people think of Live not giving out information. We're not talking to our
'single household family' asking if 'dad's'(live) strategy is fail or smart

Almost everybody here grew up playing the EA\Live series, we want to see this series do well. We need the competition.

Its okay... he has zero understanding, no matter how many times you explain things to him

Anyway, Once 2k drops this place will be back to a graveyard

I find your posts painfully honest and insightful, but lately you've been cheap-shotting EA just a tad to much. No disrespect intended whatsoever, because you've been here a long time and have witnessed games come and go, but you gotta be a little more positive. Every post you make on the Live board comes off as if Live fans are rabid animals who'll defend anything, but you yourself are quick to get the last word, and it usually isn't the nicest.

He like most former EA/Live fans is tired of EAs song and dance every year only to be disappointed, that's all there is to it. They need to be trying to win back their fan base and they aren't doing it, hell, right now it looks like they don't even care.

Personally coming from a guy who has over 141 Live series videos on his Youtube (me)

They deserve all the backlash they are getting, not in all my years have I seen a company fail at one title (Elite 11), leave us hanging on another (NCAA Basketball 10), and become completely mute on another after making an announcement of a return.(Live 13)

The whole point of changing the name back, and the announcement and the other crap they showed us, of stars coming in to be captured in the game. Was so we would get excited about the return.

We are 58 days away from the so called October release and there is zero info on the title. No gameplay, new controls, features, graphics, trailers, teasers. I mean absolutely dead silence from the company.

It's insulting and disrespectful, I mean they wanted Live fans, and basketball fans to get excited. And instead we got more worried!

Re: NBA Live 13 strategy fail or smart?

I can't disagree with that logic. I'm in the minority, I really care about Live, but I understand why people would lose patience and hop to 2K. It happens. I jumped to 11/12.

I'm not cheap shotting anyone

I've stated too many reasons why I feel as I do and if you've read my post you'd know that.

The guy you're defending is a poster who is close to being banned ...this has nothing to do with live fans...that's the other problem...trying to seperate fans of basketball

Assuming you meant single PARENT household, that is an offensive post there dude. Are you from a such a home? Just curious.

I think you guys generalize his comments. I've only seen 23 be harsh when he's trying to help the nutty Live fans see that blind faith is just that - blind. Faith is good, but ignoring issues doesn't get them fixed and that's all anyone on this forum wants to see - improvement. It's my problem with Madden, I see people blindly accepting the crap, so EA has NO incentive to fix them. I dislike those types of fans of any game more than I could ever dislike amy game. Progress is all anyone wants to see. So far, folks feel that they aren't seeing any from Live. But if not progress, some honesty. Hiding isn't honest and that's how folks feel.

EA can kill all of this by just coming clean. If you will ship this year, say so. If you're focusing on next gen, then that's cool. Just say so. That's all.

This is either gonna be an amazing thing or its gonna be a complete failure. Its one of the 2 no in between. This silence will either be gold or horse crap.

Man do you ever get tired of explaining things for me to new guys who don't really get whats going on

I dont hate, which is a cop out word for what the truth is in here..... and I would argue that people who wont demand better from EA are the ones who "hate" (dont care for )the series.
