Re: NBA Live 13 Canceled
This statement is, sadly, SO true. Whenever anyone mentioned the probability of this happening, some folks went into immediate defense mode and denial. You either hated EA or was just trolling. At some point, people have to stop thinking with their hearts and use history as a teaching tool. This thing played out SO much like Elite, it truly is not funny.
This IS sad news. It's sad for the folks that hoped to see another quality title being available.Comment

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
That's what I've been saying, 2k has been competing against themselves for years now, that's their only competition, to prove that they can make the next product better. People are assuming 2k will turn into EA, if Live is cancelled. We don't know what 2k basketball will be like when or if Live is cancelled, so all of this competition talk is just a excuse to buy a terrible game in my opinion. Competition has it's place but I don't think we should assume, I mean EA has tried to buy the NBA rights from 2k and they tried to buy Take-two. Competition is terrible either way because a giant like EA will just buy the competition out, and we are stuck with their product.Competition for the sake of competition doesn't benefit anyone...at all...especially when one company has proven they can put out quality games without it, and one to this day still can't...
It's all about quality...people don't laugh at things worth caring about..Last edited by jersez; 09-27-2012, 05:45 PM.ARE YOU LOOKING FOR YOUTUBE CHANNELS DEDICATED TO THE SIM COMMUNITY CLICK THE LINKS BELOW, AND SUBSCRIBE FOR ALL SIM CONTENT.

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
No, I don't think so. 70 is alot for a team that has just been assembled together with most of them not knowing the game engine or where the direction of the game is going. EAC sent probably one or two guys to tiburon..which is not really not doing much. How many of those people would you say are experience in game design? sports design? we don't know the specifics. EA said it themselves that they are bringing in more people to revamp the series to hit the ground running. They threw that number out there. Had they continued with the regular staff, I think it would have been a much better product. A small team, 2-3 years would have gave them live 13..vs hiring 70 people and starting in 2012 to create live 13..Last edited by yungflo; 09-27-2012, 05:48 PM.#dairyfreeComment

Right. Because they got plenty of money in order to get over this. But this leaves the question why a company, that rich and wealthy, remains unable to produce one single game in two years. Other smaller or poorer companies have good reason to fail here and there. But in the case of EA it's just inexplicable and also inexcusable...Comment

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
Well, I agree with some of your finer points and questions. But a 70 member team can get it done. You just have to know how to manage it. That's all I'm saying.No, I don't think so. 70 is alot for a team that has just been assembled together with most of them not knowing the game engine or where the direction of the game is going. EAC sent probably one or two guys to tiburon..which is not really not doing much. How many of those people would you say are experience in game design? sports design? we don't know the specifics. EA said it themselves that they are bnring in more people to revamp the series to hit the ground running. They threw that number out there. Had they continued with the regular staff, I think it would have been a much better produce. A small team, 2-3 years would have gave them live 13..vs hiring 70 people and starting in 2012 to create live 13..
Your point about no direction and experience is 100% valid.Comment

Re: NBA Live 13 Has Been Canned
Could you imagine if EA was our only option and we were stuck with Live 10 after all these years? Thank God for 2k Sports and their willingness to listen to the fans and adapt and admit when they've made mistakes. They aren't perfect, but they are damn near close.Comment
