Just like the other game, we still can't apply head bands to players. Hmmm. This always perplexed me. I always wondered if they removed the ability to remove headbands in b'ball games because the headband would affect the new updated hairstyles of the players and they didn't want to deal with that with the coding or something? Again, this was a staple in most all b'ball games of the past... Just too time consuming? Just thinking out loud...

What happened to the Cavs black statement jerseys? There’s no yellow outline on the numbers of the jersey anymore it looks ridiculous i don’t get how that could’ve happened

I noticed the same right away! Hope it's addressed soon! Does make you wonder how that was impacted.

Players like Westbrook, Harden, James etc. that drives in real life are the only one on the team that will drive to the basket while being guarded.

I was playing against the Bucks and had Greek Freak was the point while their 3 point shooters just chilled outside. When I helped out on Monroe or Greek, they passed it out for the open 3. They did that all game.

Also, they go to the post, pass out of double teams, pick and roll, take the open shot if you sag off etc.

I wonder that the sliders is making the CPU play a totally different type of game. For example, if you upped the foul sliders, then the CPU know they can drive to the basket more because more fouls will be called.
This is correct in regards to the impact of the sliders and is the same as it was in Live 16. I also found that returning to default sliders (Superstar settings in this case but certain it applies to other modes) yields the best results, unless perhaps, the slider adjustments are made carefully, with precision and balance. Let's just say that is not easy to achieve. Basically, I've determined that the devs have optimized or fine tuned the game for only default sliders. I implore anyone that has adjusted sliders to revert to default sliders and test the game again! Really like what I am seeing especially after this latest patch in terms of balanced play from the cpu, particularly offensively and defensively....to an extent. You couple that with the user truly playing more effective defense and not allowing the cpu to exploit space, and you can have some really good outcomes here!

I’m gonna try it. They’ve fixed enough of my pet peeves that I really need to give this a try before I totally give up.

Again, I give EA a huge amount of props for them implementing s huge community request. Live is taking huge steps towards becoming a complete experience.

I just wish I could get into the 5 on 5 gameplay. I have been really digging into the game these past couple days. It just feels as if every thing is so 'boxed in'...I don't feel there us nearly enough movement from my offensive teamates or the CPU in general. The stickiness on the perimeter limits the amount of space to operate in...which is what the NBA game is all about. I find myself getting frustrated with the general sluggishness of the game when I play.

I dont remember the initial game feeling quite like this...
