Agreed. I posted this in the video thread, but it's an example of the CPU making extra passes and not just charging to the hoop as well.

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
Really playing well at the moment...
Team styles are so much better now also. Curry plays like Curry, Draymond Green plays at times from th top of they key...Drummond on the Pistons completely different to Draymond etc.
Really promising signs.Comment

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
Actually you see that nightly from the Warriors, IRL. (Synergy evidence?) Nice D to force the rotation, Nice job EA on the counter AI ball movement, and nice video capture.
On SS the CPU takes that drive path (least resistance) because its easier, and it can react faster than you can for the most part. Mixing in the occasional zone will force this type of movement on SS at times, but over use of the zone, against CPU, with non-elite defenders, will get you shot out of the gym fast.Currently playing:

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
This is correct. The cpu has the ratings boost so they react quicker and what would otherwise result in cutting off penetration in Pro or All Star, becomes an open lane for the cpu on this level. I just switched to playing on Superstar so still adapting to the way the cpu plays. Have to strategize. Also, to make matters worse, and with this understanding in mind, there are times when the game operates at near supersonic speeds outside of Synergys influence. If any one recalls I had the same problem last year (though less pronounced this year). I have noticed a correlation to room temperature fluctuations when this phenomenon occurs. This is one issue, amongst others, that leads me to focuse on the Ps4 ( or perhaps MY Ps4) as being the culprit. As is, when the game is operating this way, the cpu players (though not restricted to the cpu since all players on the court, including the human team, move at the same quasi warp speed) can zip around the court almost unimpeded leading to more instances of subpar ball movement! You mix this effect with Superstars boosted ratings and well, you get the picture.Last edited by Calvenn; 12-16-2015, 02:23 PM.Comment

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
You ain't lying. I usually regard the highest difficulty levels of any game like this....
up +down +up +down +left +right +left +right + B +A + Start....
Seriously though, on SS, if you plan out the attack on the basket similarly, (pre-plan your attack sequence/moves instead of reacting) it helps to keep the animations + difficulty boost from being awkwardly displayed as warping animations or the having CPU pressure that is too fast to adjust to without resorting to the cheesy driving/defensive tactics.
I've also suggested this "approach" in the past for those who fail in succeed in using the the various post contextual moves(yes, more needed), or unable to pull off branching stick moves.Currently playing:

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
If your looking for a comparison, the folks here in the Live forum will obviously suggest Live...
There's a bunch of patch impressions in the patch thread.....the last 2 pages in this thread too...my suggestion is to just look over it- some pretty good stuffComment

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
Comparisons aren't allowed in the specific forums for Live and 2K. Look in the Other Basketball forum where it has been asked already in other threads. I answered someone else earlier although I'm a casual fan. If options and full customization are important to you then Live probably won't be for you. A lot depends simply on how much you like the player movement and controls. I really enjoy Live for that reason. It plays a solid game of basketball on the court imo.Comment

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
What is everyone position on the offensive tempo? Push would probably help me get 100 plus since I only play 10 min without shooting more than 50% but i dont want a team like San Antonio running fast breaks all the time.
Would a team like GS show that high powered offense on balanced?Comment

Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
Last year you couldn't make a j while being contested and now this year you can have 2 defenders on tge face of a shooter n it's going in no matter what smh.
I've always questioned if the defense adjustments work because I'm constant pressuring shooters but for some reason guys are always open for a 3
Has anyone ever blocked a Steph Curry layup? Smh
Gsme feels soo much better since last roster update but we gotta get better player movement and more realistic jump shots.@KingTate84 on twitter.Comment
