DNA/Dynamic Season Correction Thread

[GSW]

Is there anyway to play defense or are we just at the mercy of the DNA?...that was my main question.

Will the percentages go down because of number tweaking...or will in game defense be a deciding factor...thats all i really want.

If a guy is hot in real life hes hot.. but if im double and triple teaming him...thats another issue.

if hes launching up 39 shots with no ill effects....thats an issue as well

I just want to know hwo youre going to adress the issue?

Ooh la la. Interesting, are you referring to Patch 2 or the next roster update?

Agree with all this, definitely one of the larger issues with Live 10. Many times the user D feels irrelevant outside of cutting off driving lines and blocking shots. Crowding/pressuring a guy on the perimeter so he wouldn't even consider shooting a J is non-existent in Live. I've said many times that the primary factor in determining if a shot goes in is a player's DNA and not the defense - it gets annoying.

Very true. Defense just doesn't count in this game.

My solution? I am using Phoenix now.

NBA Live's post game sux...but that doesn't matter as so does the Suns post game.

NBA Live's defense sux...but that doesn't matter as so does the Suns D.

They are pretty much the perfect team to use...the perimeter game and movement in LIVE is great and that suits them.

The post game and D needs to be addressed in the patch though...hopefully EA have got a nice surprise in store for everyone

A simple "shots now fall less because we lowered the ratings" type patch will be dissapointing.

Legit gameplay =

That's exactly why I enjoy using the Knicks so much. Live's issues aren't as relevant because the Knicks have no post presence and play no D.

I don't think Live's D sucks though, the only complaint I have is the contact issues in the lane and contested shot...which is more a DNA/CPU Offense issue.

Re the D...yeah, some parts are great. The footwork + anticipation.

But there's no real way to lock anyone down...you can't really get in a player's face and pressurise anyone.

I got really frustrated using the Jazz due to the lack of post moves + I couldn't on ball D anyone with AK47.

Phoenix though.........no post players....no real on ball defenders...lots of PG play and kick outs....are great fun

You have gotta be kidding me and everyone here playin live 10, are you insane while saying live 10 defense sucks? I read what you write down here and saying ok he has got point on is own no need flare anything, but from now on i really do think you either don't know how to play live 10 or you're saying things on purpose without objectivity. This game is all about basketball basics and D is just in it, that has never been before in any bball game, all right post game is limited, but it doesn't suck at all it's pretty good balanced letting both offense and defense to make their moves.

I use Utah, Milwaukee, and even Raptors i'm doing pretty good job on d; and if i take teams like Blazers, Celtics, Lakers; my d is all over. I really couldn't understand the statement of yours up there.

See my post above...and, yes, it's not that bad.

I am talking about locking guys down on the perimeter...physically forcing players to go in different directions...and your actions actually affecting their shot %.

At the moment, all you can really do is put a hand in a shooter's face...and, as everyone has pointed out, the DNA and ratings have more of an effect on whether that players shot is going in than the D you just played.
