    Re: 4 days until PS4, and no real gameplay? I'm done...

    People are jumping on others because of their honest thoughts on this game, seriously what do you expect?

    We have a NBA series (Live) which ended on a good note with (NBA Live 10)

    Messed everything up and trying to start over with new gameplay via Elite 11 and Live 13. And haven't released a title since 2009. Almost 4 years!!!

    Now they finally have a new game NBA Live 14, with the worst marketing in the history of the franchise and video game overall. Every NBA Live game was marketed to death with gameplay trailers, tutorials, etc. Before the game even came out, months before! It's 6 days from release and we haven't gotten one gameplay video!

    But we have numerous bull**** blogs with images of the menus and talking about stats and ****!!! When the most important thing to any sports game is the gameplay!!! You know that thing we've seen zero of!!!

    What makes it worse is they showed us amazing CG footage of fake models and renders, even released renders of the cover athlete and he looks nothing like them in the so called gameplay trailer, which all that was rendered too.

    So don't jump on someone for speaking their opinions and thoughts, a lot of us are just really disappointed fans. And in all honesty it's very disrespectful by EA's NBA team to not show a damn thing to us, but want to market stupid banners and posters, with reserve today on them.

    What am I reserving the menus in game, the stat info or the cover athlete? Because that's all I know about the game or have seen of it. Oh yeah!!! John Wall will be there too, SMDH!!!!

    We are upset, disrespected and disappointed! There is nothing wrong with that, it does justify why a lot of us have canceled our reservations. We came in with the announcement of it's return, with optimism and respectful support. Yet this company, has done nothing to keep our fires going.

    We wanted two games, you fanboys turned everything into a 2k vs. EA war!!! A lot of us wanted both of them and was going to buy them both, because the adult and mature levels of us gamers, have learned to respect them both for their differences. And honestly play them because they are so different.

    At this point, we can honestly forget about any type of gameplay and just choke up the fact it's not going to happen.

    - Peace

    And game on - OS Vets and Newbies.

      Well, since it's 12 months until the next game I see we have at least that time to read reviews, play a demo, get impressions and watch videos. We don't need to buy it on release?

      It's up to a company to give information, yes, but you don't need to buy anything. It's up to you to seek out information if there's a product you are interested in.

I never understand why people always feel bad for EA when we compare them to 2k. I mean people compare lowe's to home depot, McDonalds to burger king, moes to chipotle, and no one complains, its part of the business of competition, if the devs cant stand the heat, then...
        It's not that man. The problem is that the comparisons are SO subjective, you get the ENDLESS back and forth that goes nowhere. And this is all the time. You get guys arguing over the most inane points. They end up in circular arguments linked by things that are totally unrelated or unimportant. Then, it eventually leads to the threads being closed down.

        And i don't look at it as ripping the game apart, I look at it as constructive criticism, the community is giving valuable feedback to the devs, and we are voicing our opinions, which we have the right to cause we spent out hard earned cash and would like to have an enjoyable time with that game.
        Well, technically, no one has spent a dime on Live 10 outside of maybe a pre-order. With that said, voicing opinions is one thing. But, we all know, you'll get folks jumping in and they will start to go off. "This is broken" is cool. "This is broken because EA doesn't care" is too much.

        Back on topic, normally when there's no films, or demos playable yet, it's not a good thing, and imo, i think they are still trying to fine tune multiples things, and are going to release a first day patch. That's just my 2 cents, but nobody knows but ea.
        I actually agree with you. It does concern me. But I'm not ready to throw EA under the bus just because I don't see a gameplay footage. As I said, I would understand them not wanting to release 5v5.

        SO, where does this leave us. Everyone should make their decision based what they already know of the game. We've been told to not use history. Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on what side you stand, all we DO have is history. It's up to EA to guide it's potential customers.

          I need to see some gameplay
          they are following those guidelines. i dont see anything in there that says the company must release information before the product is released. im sure the box will have pictures features etc. there will be a full-featured demo on launch day for those who dont want to buy it without seeing or trying it. and this magical thing called the internet will allow you to see gameplay from other people who do buy it.

          now if they come out and advertise something thats not in the game then you have a case. but just because theyre not giving you exactly what you want before its even released doesnt mean they are depriving you of your rights.

            This is just ridiculous. No legit gameplay from Live 14, and the PS4 comes out in 4 days. Just give up EA.

            I'm far from a 2k fanboy, but if EA isn't confident in their product, i wont buy it, simple. ill try out the demo, but i wont buy this game regardless.
            I know the anticipation of seeing the gameplay was important to you, and it makes the whole situation frustrating. I also wanted to see gameplay badly, but I will try the game out when it releases. Now if NBA live is fun to play I will purchase it without hesitating.

            I'm not going to cheat myself from a fun experience, and you shouldn't either.

              The fact that they have had to scrap 2 nba titles prior.
              The fact that 2k scanned EVERY player in the NBA and Live did like 6.
              The fact that you can't edit players
              The fact is, that when and if they ever show the 5 v 5 gameplay, it will have to be scrapped once again.
              This way, they don't show gameplay, they can release the game.

              EA sports, it's NOT in the game.

                    Whoa wait. Ya'll sat ALL summer and all the way up till now to be patient with the 2K release of a gameplay footage (or say ANYTHING about Next-Gen) and ya'll were ready to get it from the jump. But Live has been dropping trailer after trailer, gave ya'll ACTUAL GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE, a couple of dribble videos and an in-depth video on their Ignite Engine and just because they didn't drop a full gameplay video ya'll are ready to give up on Live. Typical. Just come out and say that ya'll are die hard 2K fans. If you are then stay on the 2K boards. Why come here and spew disappointment after you've been given so much information? Over GAMEPLAY? Gameplay. We talkin' about Gameplay. Not a video, not a video. We talkin about GAMEPLAY.

                        2k has several trailers, screenshots, and gameplay vids, not sure what you are talking about. Live has screenshots of their coverboys, a demo of bouncetek that we have seen hundreds of times, and arena screens. To me it's kind of dumb and horrible marketing for them to not have shown any type of gameplay vid when they only a week or so away from launching. I can't recall any game, sports game or not, that didn't show gameplay so close to launch. EA is such a horrible company, they make very lazy products that are either horrible (Nba live) or average (Madden). And when they do have a franchise that dominates because it's the only offering (Madden) they are lazy and do little to it because they are just collecting checks. No offense but you don't see a company like 2K doing this, I wish 2k got into the NFL game mix just so it sparks a fire under EAs butt. I'm only looking forward to their UFC but even with that game I'm losing hope, especially when the developer says the game runs best at 30fps, I mean this is next gen right and we are still taking about 30fps.

All people will do is rip it apart. And this isn't because it's Live. It's because that's what people like to do nowadays. They will do it to Madden, 2K, FIFA, The Show. All of the sports games. So, now, I'm to a point where if they don't release gameplay footage, I applaud the move. That's just my opinion on the matter. Doesn't mean I don't want to see it, mind you. But I get why you're not seeing it.
                          Haven't seen anyone rip 2K, fifa or the show. People rip product when it's the same as the previous year or just poor. I'm looking forward to Madden because I didn't play the CG but it's also disappointing that people who have played it say it's only a slight upgrade over CG. Madden at least has several trailers and gameplay vids.

                            honestly, the lack of gameplay is very concerning and i've made the decision to not purchase it this year unfortunately. maybe the demo might change my mind, but I doubt it.
