Re: Hype dying down

This forum has always been like died. The thing is the other game is just a lot more popular and even compared to other sports games live is not that popular. In general nba live forum and nhl forum have less activate then like the rest of this website. I think the problem with live is because of its past it has a lot of like catching up to do and the fact that its franchise mode is basically broken hurts the game a lot. Had nba live had a working franchise mode I would have gotten it but when you have a franchise mode with out in game injures, no CPU trades, beyond terrible sim results how can you really play the mode?

For what the game offers, it just doesn't compare to NBA 2K18. I mean 2K has it's own issues but mostly that's online. I have both games and at first I was playing Live 18 hard. But that was mostly because it was new and something different but less than two months after release I find myself exclusively playing 2K now.

As stated previously, with limited & broken game modes and no roster editing there is not much longevity with Live 18. And basically after the season the game will die fast as we have to rely on EA to update everything. And you already know there will be no updates after the Finals.

It's the main reason in my personal opinion why they are discounting the game so early.... Cuz they know after the season sales will die. It's simple business, they're trying to save face.

But you might see a slight spike in activity around Christmas when people buy new consoles and they grab NBA Live on sale. It'll be buzzing again for a minute around that time I bet.

I also play both games even though 2k has live beat as far as gamemodes and a deeper franchise I'm having more fun playing live.

No it hasn't as far as popularity goes this year I'm really enjoying the gameplay and I'm having fun. I also like playing 2k I'm just having more fun with live.

I hear ya...live just leaves me with a ton of want. Just edits alone crushed my expectations. Live was the original roster edits king. Its pointless to have all the shoes and not have the freedom to edit. Truly took me out of the game.
