    Who has made their mind up re purchasing this game?

    After extensively playing the demo...I have decided NOT to buy the game at release.


    Reason = too many bugs / late game AI issues remain / no mid range game / no real team styles.


    Could I change my mind later? Yes...but will need EXTENSIVE patches / patch notes clearly explaining how things have been addressed.


    Most critical aspect in possibly buying it later = I need to see team styles / mid range game.


    What is everyone else's purchase / not purchasing status?

      The is better than last year that's a fact but it's just not there yet. My copy went on Craigslist last night with hopes of getting full retail value back. I will repurchase it at some point around the $25 range

          Probably the smart thing to do is wait but I'm just out of patience.

              I am also waiting till Vault. It's very fun, but I'm in no rush to play it at that cost. Even $25 holiday special is too much.

                I'm going to be on the lookout for community feedback regarding the day one patch and the impact of Synergy once it get's going before purchasing...just want to make sure some thing's are addressed if I'm buying at full price.

                If not, ill wait for a sale, they had some great ones last year....I cant resist building up my Pro Am center, lol

                  Yeah, i want to see team differences, mid range game and late game AI. There will be full games on youtube i guess, so I will wait.

                  I got burnt with Live 15.

                  Right now, I can't justify two NBA games. I am kind of tired of 2K, but it offers a lot more reliability. I am going to buy one NBA game and FIFA.

                    As a rim protector you see first hand how broken rebounds, loose balls, no contact animations and general rim protection is. Also the midrange game mixed with no real modes outside of pro am.

                    If basketball fundamentals were solid this would be a day one buy. I won't jump on the bad animation bandwagon because I believe 1 game has the same issues but execute them prettier.

                    I had a blast with pro am but even the point system is broken. I've had 14+ ppg, 10+ reb, few blocks and play legit defense/set screens and end up with 65-75 team rating. Already punished by being center.

                    All in all not worth the price tag at this point. Can't even see how even flight can defend this game. And now the game changers have hyped the day one patch that it will probably be a huge disappointment.

                    Sad part its not about the money at all. But after honeymoon period what am I suppose to do.

                      Yep. I'm sold on the demo. Got it for 53.99 on EA Access. Quirks aside, I think it will have enough content to have me get through an entire season. I hope we see some nice patches along the way.

                        Lol ok.

                        All we've said is that we don't have full patch notes yet, but we know certain things have been fixed based on what we've seen. We'll know better this week.

                            I'll be buying Black Friday or whenever i find it for $20-25 dollars. Not willing to pay more than that for it. It does some things nice, but it does somethings bad, and i mean very bad lol. JUST my opinion, its fun, but the fun factor isn't worth my $60. When i get a complete game, ill pay a complete price. So its on my Black Friday list, or my Christmas list.
