You don't like this scan?



I actually like it quite a bit.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Damn.. graphics are looking proper... good job EA! LBJ and Russ are the best of the lot in my opinion... really digging the details/definition

Visuals looks good. But when Live transitions to the Frostbite engine, I expect a jump in visuals and graphics

That's the best angle I've seen of him for sure, but in general I don't think he looks good. Just my opinion of course.

I think as far as the skin tone/texture goes this is probably the best a basketball video game has looked. I'm diggin it.

Is that a Paul George impersonator? I think his name is Pol Jawge cause he don't resemble PG13 at all lol!

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18

That's not supposed to be Draymond Green is it?!? Good grief

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Can someone please tell me how to take screenshots and post them here on XB1? I'm so used to PS4 and have only had my xbox for a few months.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

i was thinking the same thing. His previous scans in Live 15/16 were better. Must have to do with 2K having him as the cover boy now :tongue:

Some players can use a little work

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Press the home button. The option should come up to press Y for screenshot or X to record. It should upload to your one drive and you can download and post from there.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Nice stepback from Kyrie. Spacing appears to be key in this game.

I love this scan. I don’t see how people don’t see kyrie. Lives skin textures are amazing.

Thanks. Went there and my screenshot was there. Didn't have anything on my Onedrive.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Yea appears you have to manually upload it there. Thought it was done automatically.

I love the emotion the players show.

Get that weak stuff outta here.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

I love the gym lighting in the crawsover league....dope pic!

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Damn... live 18 lebron is soooo dope... him and Westbrook have looked like the best digital versions of themselves, for both live and 2k... other face scans/likenesses are Meh, but I really have to give props to the live art team, for being consistent with how great the color/lighting/textures/details are for the whole game, and for players all across the board

Getting some practice shots up with Bron and learning the controls. I'm very happy with the visuals of the game and the overall product. Hoping player editing is in, either way I plan on picking up Live for the first time since Live 10.

Live 16 had better player models

This is absolutely not true.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Lets see some pictures of some signature jumpshots...oh wait nevermind. In all seriousness, big improvement over the last live but sadly the robocop animations ruin all immersion.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

The signature jumpshots' forms are actually close to spot on... it's just, the hitch/delay in timing sorta f*cks it all up. Dribbling and movement is OK too.. didn't play live 16 so I have no point for comparison. Been such a longtime 2k gamer that I'm programmed to find that Dribbling scheme intuitive, but in keeping an open mind about live 18 Dribbling, I sorta see how this stuff could work good... needs improvement, it's a ways from 2K, but definitely a step in the right direction.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

If you go to your created player and to the store to buy animations you can see every signature jump shot the game has. And 90% of them look nothing like the real shots.

I don't get how they actually got worse. They were fine in 16.

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

I'm not gonna front. I honestly can't tell most of them apart outside of KD's

Re: The Photographic Side of NBA Live 18
 

Lebron, Westbrook and Kyrie are distinct, along with KD's.. but that hitch really kills the realism
