So what happens if the trailer that drops this week apparently is like this one last year.

Well at least we know the graphics, lighting, and body types will be better...All I care about is the gameplay being solid...I wonder if we get any info tomorrow even though it's Labor Day?? I'm surprised Live fans haven't been protesting in the streets the way EA has treated you the last 4 years. Ya'll super loyal..

That actually made Live 14 look almost okay imo, probably because it was such a tiny snippet. But we all know how the gameplay turned out overall. I guess the lesson is people shouldn't take too much from these cinematic type trailers but instead make up their minds from playing the demo. Or at least watching a few possessions of an unadulterated, raw gameplay video with someone who knows how to play the game.

To everybody saying 2k hasn't shown anything as well...you're kidding right? They have actual gameplay videos from gamescom on this very site and on youtube. SMH

Honestly even if we do get a cinematic type trailer, they are usually not that hard to dissect.. It wasn't hard to see Live 14 wasn't going to be any good. So if the game actually has improved by a slightly less than dramatic amount, any type of media released could still result in gain.

But in the trailer you can tell that the defense was terrible..Look how easy Kyrie blew by Felton with a simple crossover..And then that ugly layup over Chandler...Just show me buttery smooth gameplay..I feel like WTF knows the gameplay is good, he justs wants us to see it for ourselves...That's why he says be patient..O'Brien said we will get our fill of info this week..Let the floodgates open..

Marketing may suck but the product is definitely improving.

Did you just state that the game was improved from a screen shot when one was taken from a trailer and the other from who knows, if you want to claim graphically fine but how are we to know this is how he will actually look when we play the game there is no other players around to determine this could just be a marketing photo.

I don't think any of these are trailer shots...

Lol "wait and see"

Isn't that what we've been doing for the last few years? Taking a "wait and see" approach? What good has done them?

And then every year, the same thing is getting repeated by the same people about this game and then we eventually end up to threads like this popping up every year. Because if the game was doing what it was supposed to and what EA said they would do, this thread wouldn't even be here.

Re: NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

I hated the game at release last year PPM. So if you're referring to me saying the same thing every year, you can drop that. It wasn't til after the patch that it was playable.

They made several strides last year. They followed up on their word by sending out several big updates to the game. Was it worth the $60 last year? Depends on what you're looking for.

The team that is in place right now, at this moment, moving forward has a chemistry from working together on prior titles. That can't be understated.

Regardless, some guys have their minds made up. They'll release a demo, and information is getting ready to start dropping. If you look at it, and it's not for you, then pass. Nobody is forcing you to preorder. Take a wait and see approach.

O'brien said on twitter this morning that they're working on the ps4 version of the demo right now. EA Access will be there for x1 guys. Play it. Make your own judgment based on the game, not on what marketing has or hasn't provided.

For those that use twitter, go check out @seanobs . He's answered several tweets this morning,.

Re: NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

I don't understand how EA's marketing works. Knowing last years failures they continue to be 'soft' and going behind 2k moves. No trailers, no gameplays....

Re: NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

The trailer is coming this week. That was posted by OB in one of his twitter conversations I believe.
