Presentation

• Abuse that ESPN exclusivity license. Use every crew that calls a game. Jeff Van Gundy, Mike Breen, Jon Barry, Chris Broussard, Doris Burke, Hubie Brown, Mike Tirico, Dave Pasch, Dan Shulman, Mark Jones. Make it so that each game feels different. There shouldn’t be two games played in a row with the same crew calling. Make sure you get in JVG epic rants. Coach Hubie Brown breaking down the game in the game.
• Use Magic, Wilbon, Bill Simmons, and Jalen Rose as pre and post game analysts with them doing a halftime break down as well.
• Have crowd differentials. Like Bobcats and Hornets games will never sell out like Lakers, Knicks or Bulls games. Have Miami Heat fans not show up til halfway through the second quarter. Try and get the super fans in there like Spike Lee, Jack Nicholson, Jay-Z, Billy Crystal, Mark Cuban(I know he’s an owner but he sits in the stands).
• Give coaches the animated personalities. They don’t just sit there. They get upset with bad calls. Add in bad calls, make it authentic to the real NBA. Add some human element make players and coaches get upset
• Put in authentic celebrations. James Hardens 3 down low, Melo banging his head each time he makes a 3, Kobe fist pump, Kyrie Irving staring at the crowd, Kevin Durants stare down the opponent, Russell Westbrooks put the guns in the holsters.
• Give techs for excessive celebration or too much arguing

I love these. All EA really has to do is add more presentation than the competition. That's all it's really about these days. The game plays will always be somewhat similar while having distinguishing bugs but presentation is what separates the two ultimately.

I really hope EA doesn't take out online chat rooms. In fact, their online setup was always really good. Big mistake by 2k taking their chat rooms out and making it painful to meet good players. At least with EA you can check out a little info on the player, their W-L, their DNF, what not. You could maybe tweak it a LITTLE bit, but keep it true to the old style. Madden's was good this year.

Re: NBA LIVE 14 Wishlist Thread

Use the NBA Live 10 engine. I read in an article that Mike Wang has the rights to that engine so EA SPORTS can no longer use it...

These things amaze me for a couple of reasons:

1. That anyone would believe this to be the case.
2. That a forum post would morph into an "article" over time.

I'm not criticizing you. I truly am not. If you felt you read this in an article of a legitimate site, I could see why you would think that it may have some basis in reality. It's just interesting how misinformation in forum posts can get morphed into "truth" sometimes.

Nice wishlist, btw.

Re: NBA LIVE 14 Wishlist Thread

As i wished for in the Live 13 wishlist,

Dunking - More sig dunks and being able to hang on rims and cop Tech fouls!
Tech fouls - see above and also if your character is aggressive being able to press a button to react to a foul or non-call.
Spacing - agree with everyone else, 2k spacing sux!
ESPN ESPN ESPN

But most of all, too have this game release!!!
