    What happened to support?

    Ever since the last patch that delivered roster editing, support for the game has really gone down. We haven’t gotten a roster update in a a couple of weeks and numerous issues that have been raised haven’t been fixed. These issues include:

    - Accessory colors for most jerseys are wrong
    - Many players are missing from the game (Maxi Kleber on Mavs, Darius Miller on Pelicans, Royce O’Neal’s in Jazz, Cj Williams on clippers ect)
    - Editing rotations is broken. The game always resets the minutes to how they were no matter how many times you change them
    - CPU doesn’t trade in franchise
    - Stat overlays in game are showing last years stats and announcers talk about last years games as if they are most recent
    - Online matches frequently end due to errors during the first half
    - Teams now have 2, two-way contracts and thus can carry 17 players, but the roster limit is still 15
    - Medium socks are incompatible with many knee accessories even though they weren’t before the update.
    - Some shoes (Jordan 31 ect) show up as the generic EA shoes on players.
    - Player likeness updates have been shown on the official Ea account (Lonzo and Lebron) but haven’t came through to the game yet
    - Online head to head shows last years records in team select screen
    - in the play now screen, changes to the starting lineup before the game starts aren’t reflected when the game starts
    - The socks used in online games are not the new Nike ones. They are the NBA ones from live 15, which is a huge eyesore.

    For a game that’s trying to get back some market share, I would think they would be more on top of stuff like this especially since the game had been out for months now. Hopefully they fix all this

    The support for the nba live as always been like this, but you’d think update would be more persistent since there’s more people on board playing and like the direction of the game but it’s not, live event updates every day with shoes I already have or don’t care for, don’t see why lay ups, dunks, shooting farms and free throw routines and players update can’t get the same kinda love.

      Definitely not true I remember live 09 & 10 they where on the ball with roster and accessory updates, there was even a Dev on here taken suggestions. I have no idea what's happened since, kinda ridiculous especially now that they have a solid game that you can build on. Hopefully there busy working on 19 if there going to be a Live 19.

          My guess is that the next support patch/update will be around the All Star Game. Probably the ASG jerseys and court/venue, as they still have last year's adidas unis and the New Orleans ASG venue in the game. The addition of All Star Weekend activities would be pretty nice, too.

          Hopefully they will also update accessory colors, as I cannot bring myself to use the Bucks' City Edition uniforms with the bright red accessories they currently are paired with.

            I'm going to assume they're close to the next patch, probably the last patch and then we'll see normal roster updates.

                They've not, but I wouldn't expect new modes etc. You'll get the AS jerseys and court, and a player likeness update but I wouldn't expect too much more.

                  I wouldn't expect much more. I was happy to get 3 on 3 and roster editing. I hope they learned from their mistakes , hopefully 19 will resolve the major issues.

                    Hope they change the CPU guards always forcing their way to the basket

                      I know this is random but what camera angle do you play on? I was playing EA cam and getting the constant driving. One day I was trying different camera angles and settled on ESPN. I felt like cpu moved the ball more and the game/players seemed to move slower but it felt much better gameplay wise 🤷🏾*♂️

                        100% agreed. I love the flow and feel of Live. But playing the cpu would be so much better if they
                        1. Did not force drives into the paint so often
                        2. Did more stop and pop shots when driving in the mid range.
                        3. Post players NEVER use the triple threat in live 18 for some reason. CPU post players need to face the basket more often and sometimes pull up facing the basket from the post

                        Update these things and I will be satisfied until Live 19 releases.

                          I think all star weekend is where we will get some good stuff.

                            unfortunate that I have to play the other game to play head to head with my brother and friends.

                            Why...why the hell is there no h2h invite for friends...madden has it...and pretty much every other damn sports game ever made...WTF EA...so stupid.

                              What about the teams that have the City alternate courts? I wonder if they will add these in the game. Stats and commentary still showing last season will never get fixed. Have they just moved onto 19?
