NBA Live 10: Online Play Impressions

[dat swag]

Mods can we get a specific "Online Play" Impressions thread that is separate from general impressions?...Preferably in this forum since the Online forum is rather sparse on details and info.

I think there are quite a few people who want specific ONLINE details that will include the Good, Bad and the Patchable. Thanks

1. How does Online play Compare to Offline (Gameplay?)
2. Online Presentation
3. Connectivity/Lag?
4. Leagues?
5. Online Options (i.e. Sliders, playbooks, camera settings etc.)??

I am dissapointed that they didn't choose to give web support to leagues

Re: NBA Live 10: Online Play Impressions

I'd like to see more reviewers do a separate review for online play addressing each area thats addressed in Offline play...Just because a game is great Offline does not assure people that the online play is solid.

Its a tad bit concerning that there is no specific ONLINE DETAILS separate from Offline details. Some people never play offline and only buy games for Head 2 head and online

Re: NBA Live 10: Online Play Impressions

I've tried to get online on my PS3 for a couple of games, but I don't think enough people were trying to play at the time, as I couldn't find a game.

It could be the whole "I'm not really released until Tuesday" thing, as not many people have it yet, but I dunno. LOL.

Thank you for starting this thread and hopefully it doesn't get moved because the online section on the Live boards is not very active and the general impressions thread is dominated by offline talk.

Well, my experience with online thus far has been horrendous...Guys double teaming every possession regardless of player and/or situation, running their off the ball player straight to the rim (and unless you guys have experienced this yet, there is NOTHING you can do, honestly) calling for the pass and then throwing down, running absolutely no plays whatsoever and then always trying to steal the inbounds pass after they score.....it really is ridiculous....

Now, with all of that said, I LOVE THIS GAME OFFLINE, and believe it CAN play similar with like minded sim individuals ONLINE also, but it would take the right kind of people. If we would set up a league where we limit the off ball manual movement to the front of the rim (or limit the points in the paint to a realistic percentage of one's overall points) as well as have players that will run some of the wonderful plays that EA has given each and every team, then the game would play wonderfully online....

If anyone would like to give this a shot, my gamertag is selahsdaddy and we could play an unranked 7 or 8 minute quarter "sim-like" game and I believe have a lot of fun.....

Re: NBA Live 10: Online Play Impressions

My boy in NYC has the game and was playing online...While playing online he noted there was no pregame presentation. He did say there was a few cut scenes during the game so I guess he was mainly thrown off by there being no pre-game presentation like we have been seeing in all the videos

Re: NBA Live 10: Online Play Impressions

I don't want any cut scenes online. It's very lame seeing the same cutscenes over and over.

I'm fine with no pregame presentation.

I hate when the skimp the online part, it just so bad.

CPU teammates are useless in OTP as well...they dont shoot or pass without you telling them too....basically its a race to hit A when the CPU gets the ball
