Re: Wish list NBA live series

The most needed thing in next year's game is realistic ball on rim physics. What I mean is more of a variety of missed shots(some should rebound long and others short like most are now). This would solve the fast break situation by having long rebounds and also the offensive rebounding situation.

Re: Wish list NBA live series

The drop-step needs to be dependant on the player position resulting in more offensive and defensive fouls, due to contact.

Pro-hop needs to be tone down. It is normally use to get separation from the defender, but it's seen MOST of the time on fastbreaks, Kevin Garnett does not pro-hop all game long in half court situations.

Fix Marv Albert always saying what defense the opponent is switching to, this defeats the purpose of the defense catching the offense off guard. Also stop him from saying the offense calls for a pick or a post play, etc... Defeats the purpose of using strategy.

Fix the in-bounds situation, im tired of being pushing out of bounds by the defense when im trying to inbound the ball; causing me to be out of bounds when i catch the ball therefore turning it over. Being pushed especially excessively should be a FOUL on the defensive, please fix this.

Fix the Height of the rim to the height of the player ratio. It's extremely hard to defend Yao Ming or Paul Gasol when there inside scoring rating is so high, added to that there height makes them right at the rim and when you try to block there shot almost everytime its a goaltending, fix this please. Higher rim and backboard.

Please make online ranked games more of a simulation. I want fatigue to play in as a factor, reach in fouls should be higher, ranked games should be on Superstar level. No more shooting threes with Dirk the whole game and it doesnt matter whether theres a hand in his face or not because its ALMOST ALWAYS going in. Adjusted shots go in way TOO MUCH as well. Please fix this. Offer a seperate catergory if you have to with ranked games for SIMULATION STYLE and ranked games for people that want to play ARCADE STYLE.

Even better Al. Too many 3 pointers being shot by the CPU. Lakers have Kobe Bryant coming down the court taking a three way too much. Shaq doesnt get enough shots. Took only 5 shots one time i played them. Better Al of team tendencies and offense play sets that suit them according to how they play in real life. Utah should run pick and roll, New Jersy should fast break, Detroit should be a strong defensive team, etc. It's done pretty good this year but could be better. With the setting on Dynamic for the CPU, the offensive sets seem to be the same to me. What makes it seem realistic is that players do kinda play like real life, I see gary posting up small guards alot, and Jason Kidd looking to pass the ball alot. But implementing real team offensive playsets would make it even better.

Double teams need to be fix. CPU and Human teams double team way too much. This could be the reason for so many threes because it seems like the CPU Al was programmed to take alot more threes than mid range shots when there open. The double team animation may need to be scrapped and redone altogether. Only superstars should be getting double team, unless a normal player is having a GOOD GAME, this would result to the CPU adjusting to double teaming that particular player because there scorching them.

More career stats, more awards in the dynasty, players of the week, highlights of games during the week, just more stats and awards in general. Along with the hall of fame. Better Fan Al. Better presentation during the regular season and especially during the play-offs and championship games. Different celebrations and ending to the NBA finals would be good too because it would add alot of replay value to the game.

Ok, im gonna stop at this moment, just had to vent More ideas to come soon

Re: Wish list NBA live series

The ability to back down a few steps and then goes fade away on both left and right (we can control). Just like MJ.

Players like KOBE and T-MAC should have more mid-air time when taking a jumpshot or fade away.

Offensive rebounding
Don't make it anything like ID 2003 but increase the number of offensive rebounds for both the CPU and HUMAN. If you play games where about 80 shots are taken on average, the average number of offensive rebounds should be 11-14. Some games more, some games less. This obviously needs some more 10 man motion capping.

Mid range game
Just cause this isn't the 80's anymore there still is very much of a mid range game in the NBA. So Live has to have it too. Many shots should be taken from between the paint and the 3 point line too.

These are two of the biggest complaints this forum has. And apparently only these two serious flaws have stopped Live from being a near perfect sim. Considering this I have big expectations from Live 2005 to be the best sim available.

This would make the death of Inside Drive acceptable. Let's hope someone from LIVE's development team sees this.
