    Not feelin y\'all

    I'm not feeling y'all as far as the fast breaks..... after I turn Crash Boards off, on Superstar level, default everything except 45 game speed and 50 fatigue, me and the computer get roughly the same amount of fast breaks.

    I can get them with much slower guys such as Cuttino Mobley, Eddie Griffin, Bostjan freakin Nachbar. Surely if I can get a couple fast breaks with Mr. Nachbar, y'all can get some with AI.

    And the turning off of crash boards for the user can make sure that your players don't even try to get an O-Rebound unless you tell them to. They'll make sure to get back on D, but you can still get a semi-respectable amount of offensive rebounds.

    I'm not blasting y'all, but just saying maybe y'all are doing something wrong..... it depends on when you pass to the fastbreaking player.... pass it too early and the defense will use that "catch-up" logic.... pass it too late and the defense will already be on their side of the court.

    So don't pass instantly as u see the fastbreaking player, wait for him to sprint a little down the court before passing it to him.

      how? cuz when we adjust the sliders we up our shooting and various other sliders more than the cpu. am i right? then we start the game and move our controller over to the cpu side and change their dbl team and pressure options. next, we make them run the offense we think is suitable for the team.

      is that cheating? maybe

      That is terrible logic.

      How can you reason that modifying the game so teams aren't shooting over 50%, aren't getting 20+ blocks a game, aren't prohopping to death, and the many other problems cheating? I don't know what you're messing around with the options for, but I'm looking for realistic games. I bought NBA Street for arcade gameplay, I bought Live for simulation basketball.

      And no, it has aboslutely nothing to do with me wanting to go 82-0. Why is it that I was able to play 2 full seasons of NBA 2k3 and 5 entire seasons of NCAA 2k3 without a problem? Why have I been able to play basketball games since Bulls vs. Blazers without these weird gameplay issues by the AI?

            I think you've missed the point. It's not an issue of not getting any fastbreaks. Shawn Bradley should NEVER catch up to AI on a break...

                  Re: Not feelin y\'all

                  Well I play with the Timberwolves, and im able to get breaks with the slower Wally and Sam Cassell, and the quicker Sprewell. Sometimes I get ran down, sometimes I dont, it all depends on how fatigued they are and WHEN I pass the ball to them on the break.

                  I'm not trying to get anyone upset, just trying to give a couple of pointers. NBA LIVE 2004 is a great game TO ME. Understand that EA will NEVER PLEASE EVERYBODY. It's 100% IMPOSSIBLE. It is just a videogame. People can continue waiting for that PERFECT GAME if they want to but i'll tell you this, it'll NEVER HAPPEN.

                  All of the flaws that alot of people are talking about will probably be fix for 2005. But as soon as that game comes out, everyone will find more flaws that will need to be addressed 2006 and so on and so on.

                  I understand everyone has there own opinion, so I hope that one day everyone whom is looking for that perfect game finally gets it, and I definitely hope it's worth the wait, but in the meanwhile I'll be enjoying NBA LIVE 2004

                              Ea will never change something unless people complain about it and everytime somebody complains about the cheating computer, people always say that in the nba people make runs. The difference is that in the nba there isn't a computer that can all of a sudden speed up and magically get the ball or something crazy like that.

                              If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                                Well I play with the Timberwolves, and im able to get breaks with the slower Wally and Sam Cassell, and the quicker Sprewell. Sometimes I get ran down, sometimes I dont, it all depends on how fatigued they are and WHEN I pass the ball to them on the break.

                                I'm not trying to get anyone upset, just trying to give a couple of pointers. NBA LIVE 2004 is a great game TO ME. Understand that EA will NEVER PLEASE EVERYBODY. It's 100% IMPOSSIBLE. It is just a videogame. People can continue waiting for that PERFECT GAME if they want to but i'll tell you this, it'll NEVER HAPPEN.

                                All of the flaws that alot of people are talking about will probably be fix for 2005. But as soon as that game comes out, everyone will find more flaws that will need to be addressed 2006 and so on and so on.

                                I understand everyone has there own opinion, so I hope that one day everyone whom is looking for that perfect game finally gets it, and I definitely hope it's worth the wait, but in the meanwhile I'll be enjoying NBA LIVE 2004

                                Ea will never change something unless people complain about it and everytime somebody complains about the cheating computer, people always say that in the nba people make runs. The difference is that in the nba there isn't a computer that can all of a sudden speed up and magically get the ball or something crazy like that.
