Giannis looks insanely good. As does Lebron. I took a few pictures. Draft viewing is accessible in franchise, I dont remember if it was last year or not. No editing within franchise. Bird rights are also in franchise mode. So, let's hear it. Thoughts on the game?

Looks like they made some steady changes to franchise. It looked like there were daily progression now on the options for franchise now as well.

I see many use the word "fun" with live but is the retail nba game simulation or a live mix of lives signature arcade/sim gameplay ?

I still can't play the full game? I'm on XBOX one? Maybe midnight?

Do you have EA Access?

Found a pretty significant issue. Playing first game in franchise against the Cavs and George hill fouled out but he didn’t get subbed out and was able to finish the game. I checked the settings and foul out was indeed on so it had to be a glitch.

I guess in the old sense of the word, it is an arcade style game.

But to me, it is pretty similar to the modern game of basketball. Lots of threes, not a lot of defence on the ball, lots of iso and pick and rolls.

And regardless, it is extremely fun. The players control as well as any game I’ve played, great weight and fluid movement and it’s fun to both shoot and drive.

And miraculously, EA has finally listened and removed almost all of the weird ‘Live’ animations.

Great game.

Just hope they add the normal maps and lighting to the players...
