    How would you pull it off with just using the shooting button.

    Thanks!

              With the stick shooting disabled, just LS down and shot to do the step back shot.

                Thanks for clearing that up WTF. Hopefully this is something that can be patched in. I don't see why the developers would remove a gameplay feature from previous years.

                Like others have noted, it seems like they have completely gotten rid of bounceTek and the "rag-doll" physics collisions from Live 15 and 16. Most of the animations now are these long canned two man animations which look nice but players are losing a lot of control in the process. The reason I play Live is so I don't have long drawn out animations and want more player control, but that seems to be going away towards a more 2K route for animation heavy gameplay. I prefer if the focus was on fixing and improving collisions/reactions between two players rather than simply play a predetermined two player animation.

                    I'll say it again in the warriors vs Cavs play now the game looks so lifelike with the baseline low camera angle.

                    I definitely encourage you guys to try it .

                      I finally got some live run games in and its extremely laggy. If it performs like that, I won't put time into it...

                        Can someone explain to me how will EA Access work for this game? I have preordered and it releases the 15th Sept, but will it be available early for EA Access or preorders?

                        Thx

                          I've been having lots of fun playing Cavs vs Warriors, but blocks are way too frequent especially on Superstar. CPU,'s Durant blocks like Wilt and Hakeem combined. In one game he had 12 blocks against Lebron. He was blocking dunk attempts, lay ups, euro steps, everything. Also, when I press the shot button while driving towards the right side of the basket and closely guarded, the last move that I wanna do is a left hand finger roll.Lebron finished with 3/18 with all missed attempts being from blocks and I lost in overtime. I understand that it's Superstar difficulty, but shouldn't Lebron be successful even a few times at what he does best, which is attacking the basket?

                            Not liking how quickly the camera cuts to the ball handler when they call a timeout, it cuts off the ending of a shot taken before it. Sometimes those are big shots.

                            Love the crowd reaction when said shots are made though!!

                              I asked pretty much this question on Twitter to Connor Dougan, the Creative Director of Live 18. Here was our exchange:

                                I'm farming several of centers archetypes and I'm having a hard time in defense with post scorer.

                                All wings scorer who know what they are doing just climb on me for dunk. I can't do ****. I try to take them sooner, wait them on the paint, jump, not jump, contest, not contest. They just put their balls on my nose every times.

                                Any tips? Or it's completly unbalanced ?
