NBA Live 17 Wishlist

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. For all star game and dunk contest zoom in on a fan giving that holy ish face, the what did I just see face with their jaw hanging down ala kg face after a highlight play


2. Have different crowd animations for all star game and dunk contest than regular games. Have the crowd amped up standing on their feet jumping up and down during highlight plays


3. Guys with big hands like kawhi leonard, lebron, jordan would sometimes post up holding the ball out with one hand to pass to cutters in the lane


4. Bring back the option to wave the ball around in the triple threat like putting the ball in the defenders face or behind my players back or over my players head ala melo/jordan/kobe


5. Right stick defense should be exclusive to hand movement instead of foot movement when pressing left/right on the stick. So when I press left/right on the stick my player will stick his arm out to play the passing lane in either direction that I press the stick too. For example when I press up he'll defend the lob pass above him or if I press right he'll defend the post entry pass to the right of him


6. Jumpshots and and1's need to be replayed makes no sense why they aren't


7. When a key player is injured on the bench have the commentators and doris burke discussing the injury. Have a camera close up shot of the injured player also during the discussion


8. Record some interviews when players are smiling/laughing and have them doing it to match the recording. It needs to look/feel more human

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

3. Have an animation when you grab a rebound where your player auto protects the ball like a football runningback. Also taller players should hold the ball by their chest or above their head


4. Players getting whacked accross the face when driving in for a layup/dunk you should actually show the player touching their face wincing from the contact. Also sometimes the player will sustain an injury to their orbital bone from that contact animation (The Little Things)


5. For Draft Combine let us do the vertical, bench press etc


6. If your Risingstar sustains a leg, foot injury in Mycareer have him walking around in crutches or walking with a limp ala kevin mchale


7. For Franchise we should have an option to incorporate billboards to woo big name freeagents or retain superstars on roster

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. This might already be in the game but have the coaches pacing back and forth on the sidelines, 'coaching' his players on the bench. Have different coach pose positions arms folded and bending down in the coaches box watching the game.


2. Make pregame, halftime, postgame shows more in depth with the keys to game and what adjustments need to be made and what was the difference in winning the game.


3. Have a in-game ticker that shows scores, trades, signings and injuries in Franchise and Risingstar modes.


4. NBA Shrine or Trophy room, a place to showcase our winnings, achievements etc. Where we can create our own home customized by us for our team. Using our snapshots to create posters, a photo history wall of our seasons, have a computer where we can watch NBALivetube a knockoff of youtube that has all our game highlights saved on it, then you have your twitter where we can communicate with other players,fans and the media.


5. For rivalry games something will click in the ai where the games would be much dirtier with more flagrant fouls and ejections. Referees will swallow their whistles more allowing the action to play out and be more physical. Players will play more dirty by hand-checking offensive players. Holding cutters from freely moving, using moving screens and blowing up defenders with picks. Just like real life rivalry games do get chippy so if where trying to mimic an NBA simulation this has to be in it.


6. Remove the invisible wall between the players and the crowd. Fans should brace themselves when players dive for loose ball out of bounds. Players should give fans a high-five between a change of possession. Also players crashing into bench full of teammates, players jumping on to announcers table etc.


7. When the fans are going crazy and the arena is rocking, the controller should slightly rumble. Also have a decibel meter pop up on the lower right part of screen showing you how loud the crowd is from time to time. Get the crowd seriously involved with the plays on the court where they boo at refs for "bad" calls and boo during dumb plays and hard fouls.


8. When you pick a play have a small picture in picture window pop up that shows the play diagram run the play once. This feature would be very beneficial to users who don't have time to study the plays in practice but want to know how a play is run quickly without needing to pause the game. Give the user the option to turn off this feature as well.


9. Give elite post defenders the ability to poke the ball away from behind as the post player backs him down.(Might Be In Game)

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. The little things have legends and celebrities sitting in the crowd during All Star Weekend

4. I want a dunk-on animation where the defender lands flat on his back and the dunker lands standing right over him giving him that mean mug

5. I know there isn't enough buttons on the controller to implement this idea, but see if you can give us control of the defender doing the swim and roll moves to escape the screen

6. The little things manually able to perform a hip-check on an opponent to create a little space when going up strong for a layup/dunk would be cool

7. The little things hearing players yell phrases in a Generic voice like it was on Ps2. They could say " and 1" or " he fouled me ref", and after they jam it they yell "AAAHH....Lets Go....Lets Go". Or if they block a shot/layup they would yell " Get it out of here". (MIGHT BE IN THE GAME ALREADY)

8. The little things when a player is on a fastbreak about to go for a layup/dunk if there's a defender behind him, that players head would be on a swivel looking left/right and maybe slowing down to gather himself before the layup/dunk

9. The little things when you have an offensive player backing down in post position when you double tap the turbo button, you can have your post player dip his shoulder into the defender creating separation sometimes being called for the offensive foul. Could be a player specific post move

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. With the picture in picture box window during timeouts you guys can be creative with it by having 3 picture in picture box windows. One picture would have in game highlights another picture would have cheerleaders dancing. The third picture would have animated commentators maybe discussing the highlights or going through the stats of the game. While on the big picture would be the players huddled up with there coach


2. When you guys implement Coach Mode we should be able to use a headset to call plays, call timeouts, talk to players individually to boost player morale, argue with refs receive technicals, get ejected for using foul language etc.


3. On fast break players should kinda look back as there running to make it look like there looking for a pass (The Little Things)


4. The little things when player gets subbed out for foul trouble or for poor performance like turnovers that player would throw his towel down in frustration or flick the towel towards the bench (The Little Things)


5. Selecting who you want to inbound the ball. You might want to go for the game winning shot with Dirk, but too bad he's inbounding the ball


6. On the road late game free throw shooting screen shaking when game is close to mimic nerves. Of course not by user input just have the game do it, also let us have an option to turn it off and on in the option menu


7. Great defenders should be able to body up ballhandlers in triple threat. Meaning that if a player has the ball and hasn't used his dribble yet, the defender should be able to get in his jersey closing the airspace and cause the ballhandler to have to protect the ball. Once this animation is triggered there is a risk/reward where a good ballhandler can blow right past you


8. We should have control in the locker room. We get to substitute at will, and call the plays, but we can't motivate the team through a pre-game/halftime speech...etc. We should be able to choose whether to speak positively or chide players for a sloppy half. Certain players will be affected positively by our remarks and some negatively depending on the players personality type which can infact affect their play on the court.

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. Referee Crew Tendencies like MLB The Show does with their umpires, I believe have 3 different fictional referee crews that ref the game and that have their own personalities of how they call the game by the book, tight or loose. Give them names so we could use it as a scouting feature. This will allow us to know what type of game to expect


2. Flashy Moving Ball Fakes where you pass fake and continue dribbling afterwards. I know there's already moving ball fakes in the game but we need a variety of flashy ball fakes like the chris paul between the legs ball fake or rajon rondo behind the back ball fake


3. Crowd during freethrows trying to distract players at the freethrow line like maybe have a fan dancing and another flashing his beer belly (The Little Things)


7. Continuation Fouls the defense should not give up or freeze once the whistle is blown. The defense should be able to contest/block the continuation shot (Might Be Fixed) if not fixed put it in the game


8. For Proam trash talking should be a key component just like in real life for example a player might say "Hold your ankles dog" after a nasty crossover or he might say "Cookies" after a steal

[Crunky]

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. New game mode sort of like jordan challenges this mode will be called NBA Legend Challenges. For example Magic vs Larry Legend, Willis Reed coming back for the knicks game 7 championship, Isiah vs Magic, knicks choke against the pacers, Iverson vs Kobe/Shaq, Duncan vs Kobe/Shaq, Dwade vs Dirk etc. Why not utilize the classic teams and make a game mode out of them. You guys can also emphasize on a specific era for the next few installments


2. When a camera shot pans over to the coach after a foul on his player you should hear the voice of the coach, could be generic say " Are you kidding me? That's not a foul! No way! " Also have many different phrases for different situations and scenarios


3. In RisingStar you should be able to create and name you own shoe then import it to Mycareer. You can then manage the money and success of your shoe as you become a superstar the shoe can become a name brand


4. For RisingStar the ability to request player only meetings when you become the star of the team. This will boost player morale and give a temporary ratings increase


5. Stat overlays should come up when shooting freethrows and not only freethrow stats


6. Cheerleaders should be shown waving their pompoms behind the camera man, behind the basket ( Might Be In Game )

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

2) Little things animation post players arms get locked up and both are dragged to the floor player z gets called for offensive foul or both recieve technicals

3) the little things animations where player gets tripped up in crowded paint or losing balance and still getting a layup attempt up

4) close out hand in face animation where player puts hand in offensive player but doesn't leave his feet

5) the little things teamates coming over to help you up after falling on the floor during hustle play,hard fouls and trips

7) players limping up the court grimacing asking to be subbed out of the game holding the injured area for ex for back spasms player y is shown bent over touching back and for cramps player y is shown clutching hamestring

8) Have Steph Curry turnaround before made shot celebration trigger rarely and only on perfect releases

9) Show Steph Curry pregame routine dribbling two basketballs at the same time

10) For dunks and ankle breakers teammates bench need to be amped up standing and celebrating (Might Already Be In)

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

. Have an animation when you grab a rebound where your player auto protects the ball like a football runningback. Also taller players should hold the ball by their chest or above their head

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. Bounce pass alley-oops make it possible with a trailing teammate in a wide open fast break


2. If a low post big or strong player like lebron for example is running the floor on the fast break and doesn't receive the outlet pass to the basket, he should seal his defender down low near the restricted area


5. Players that split pick and rolls can have badges and also tendency rating to split pick and roll


6. Have the ai utilize the slip screen, as I am aware they don't run the slip screen



8. When your playing in the early rounds in the playoffs and your one of the late games that day you should have interruptions during the break in between quarters showing you end of game highlights of games played earlier in the day

9. For first step explosiveness for players like Russell Westbrook maybe you can steal an idea from NFL 2k games where you have to first lull the defender to sleep with the right stick than you tap the right trigger repeatedly, the faster you tap the more explosive your player will be to get past defender

[Crunky]

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. Add this to loose ball fouls Impeding Progress which means when a defender impedes the offensive cutter, this foul is not called in the game


3. We should have big blocks added to replays, just imagine blocking a layup and sending it into the stands it will make the game feel more alive


4. Update the reviews referees can make such as goaltending blocks and charges by replay for within the last 2 minutes and in overtime, for charges checking to see if the player was in the restricted area or not


6. Make all star weekend mode available online where players can select their favorite all stars and go head to head


7. More explosive dunks where the dunker rises up so fast that the defender doesn't have a chance fast enough to contest the dunk. Also add more extension arm out facial dunks where the dunker uses his length and wingspan to throw down the dunk to avoid getting blocked like the terrence ross dunk on kennieth faried (Might Be In Game)

[Crunky]

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. Implement a quick change of direction crossover maneuver when cutoff facing the help defender. Only a handful of players will have this quick change of direction crossover badge. Players like kyrie irving, james harden, steph curry, russell westbrook etc. This shake and bake move will freeze up the help defender helping you to avoid the charge or the block. A combination of the ball handlers quickness, speed and ballhandling ratings will determine how fast/quickly the ballhandler can change direction after being cutoff


2. You should add a new tendency called "Signature Moves". Increasing the tendency the more likelyhood of seeing that player utilize their signature moves


3. From time to time when defensive players miss their rotations on defense have a replay breaking down pausing or slowing down the replay showing which key player missed their assignments that gave up the score, like a real life broadcast would do by circling one player here lining up where he should've been there etc.


4. When your RisingStar becomes a star player you should be able to select a signature pregame ritual for example lebron chalk toss


5. During dunk contest NBA players should be seen sitting courtside and wearing casual clothing. Have the cameraman panning over to there location showing them getting hyped up over nasty dunks


6. Have a tendency for players who play through injuries vs those who sit out because of a strained pinky



8. NBA defense is played more by riding or shading the ballhandlers weak hand to force him into the help defender

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. The little things when a player fouls out or is ejected from game the away fans chant the goodbye song. Na Na Na Na heey goodbye Na Na Na Na. Or sometimes they sing "Hit the road Jack" by ray charles

3. See if you guys can add more touch fouls in the post for when fighting for position

4. For the NBA draft have a wrap up show of the upcoming rookies showing highlights of their college games for only the teams you've got

5. The little things when saving a loose ball from going out of bounds you should have the ability to throw it off the other team

6. The little things add yelling by the offensive player when he drives and is trying to draw the foul call

7. First person view mode maybe you can add a radar like soccer video games have. So this way, you can always know the exact position of all 10 players, even if they do not appear on the screen

8. Chant Creator just like recording your own commentary lines you guys need to be ahead of the curve when it comes to this

9. The little things in real life sometimes big players will box out or block defender so there is room for a shot by the smaller player

10. Add these ratings to the game first step rating, jump speed, hand in face shooting, off-ball offensive movement and lateral quickness

11. Post player specific animations/signature I know you guys want to give us more control but not at the expense of realism. I shouldn't be able to pull off shimmys, post fakes, up and unders with every big. It should be more player specific packages for post moves

12. The little things in the final 2 minutes of a close games you should show a cutscene of camera shot of all fans standing up, chanting and going crazy

[Crunky]

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. Fouls on jumpshots where the defender hand touches the jumpshooters arm making contact, have the commentaters talk about it while replaying it (The Little Things)


2. During pressure situations let us feel the pulse of the players heart beating from the vibration of the controller


3. Use text to speech idea for RisingStar player or headset for it too. With both you can answer questions from sideline interviews with doris burke, press conference answers, teammate interactions and more using this automated voice or your pre-recorded real voice


4. With the commercials between quarter breaks that show you so and so is playing whomever in the upcoming game you should show real life snippets or highlights to hype up the matchups even more


5. For auto playcalling there has to be a way to start a play without having to get to an exact spot on the floor. Maybe once players are set you could press R3 to get the play and players in motion

[Crunky]

Re: NBA Live 17 Wishlist

1. Crowd Details fans eating, texting, walking up and down stairs, facepalms


2. Have the ai in the low post switch from faceup to backdown and vice versa


3. There needs to be an option to select who guards the inbounder on defense


4. For Coach Mode your CPU gm can trade and sign players without your input (or the more successful you are the more of an open ear they may have to your suggestions). You would get demands from higher-ups to play certain players more or less. Players would demand more plays run for them or more minutes. How you deal with the GM'S/Players request can affect your standings as a coach. The only thing you have control over is line-ups and coaching strategies. Star players may get upset and drop in ratings overall if they feel they aren't being used properly. You may also have to deal with two superstars on the same team complaining about their lack of touches, playing out of position, etc.



6. Include Olympic Games into Franchise and RisingStar for every 4years players on your team including your RisingStar player could be selected to the U.S team or foreign teams and you would be able to play in the tournament for the gold medal
