NBA Live 10 Blog: New Faces, New DNA
 
Check out the new NBA Live 10 blog, featuring new faces and DNA.

"Now I know what you're thinking, "Is this the first official gameplay blog?" Nope, not yet! You get to hear from me once more until we get into the meat of our game (presentation, visuals, gameplay and menus). What's the topic for today; new rookie DNA and overall ratings. You're probably wondering why each year we don't show screens of the rookies in their new uniforms and show off their overall rating like Madden does. Well, the fast answer to this question is because the NBA Players Association is very different from the NFL Players Association. In the NFL, when a player reports to the combine, they're officially part of the NFL Players Association. However, in the NBA a rookie isn't part of the NBA Players association until they sign their team contract. We aren't allowed to show anything (screens, ratings, etc.) until a player signs on the dotted line. With that said, we CAN sign a player for marketing purposes, and this year we did just that.

If you were watching the NBA Draft last week, you may have seen the "EA SPORTS" medallion once or twice. That's because we were the official sponsors of the NBA Draft. We signed Blake Griffin, Hasheem Thabeet and Stephen Curry. In today's blog I'm going to reveal what their collegiate DNA does for the Clippers, Grizzlies and Warriors respectively, and also show what their team's DNA looks like without them in the starting lineup. I'll also reveal their overall ratings for you ratings junkies."

Now this DNA blog, IMO, is a gameplay blog, as what we see here is vitally important to how the game plays. Good stuff indeed. Being a greedy SOB, I'll ask, can you guys comment on how players will play in transition as it relates to their DNA profile.

IDK What to say Steph........ Jus a gud azz blog lol. It was very informative. Man i just love how the Team DNA will change depending on who comes in. So what about the Player DNA changing??? Im not 4sure if i seen anything about that. Other then that was the blog so far. ( Also, cool thing that i seen was the DNA Strand instead of the block bar like on live09. lol. Good change:wink:).

We're changing the overall ratings scale BIG TIME in NBA LIVE 10. Last year, an 80 rated player was not really that good in our game. We think that's crap, so the average players will be around the 75 range, and 80 rated players are pretty damn good! We think you'll really like way we did this for NBA LIVE 10.
This isn't going to turn out like 04 is it? :y6: I think it was 04 anyway where there were guys in the 20's and really good players in the 70's.

The DNA stuff is sounding good anyway.

Thats what im wondering. I like how the players pretty much average out how the team plays, but Im not seeing how a coaching style affects them so maybe that has alot to do with the decision on whether they play transition basketball or halfcourt set plays
