NBA Live 10 - New Team, New Direction (IGN)

Re: NBA Live 10 - New Team, New Direction (IGN)

I thought 09's team was a new team???

The game is good already. Don't make any drastic changes. I'm having more fun playing NBA Live 09 than I ever had playing a 2k game.

They are the new team that worked on 09, but a lot of the guys came in late on the project, so couldn't do a lot with the game due to time restraints. So now they have a full year to work on it together at the same time. And hopefully can come up with a more complete project.

And I agree Live 09 is good and I hope the changes that are drastically changed are in a good way, not a bad way.

i agree totally if they change the NET physics that would be awesome. thats one thing i'd def. like to see

This was one of the first things worked on in 10.

Great read. Much better than the ESPN interview.

So you already fixed it?

In 2K the net physics are great but the rim feels really akward. You know the feeling when youre playing on a real court and the rim just sounds ugly when you miss^^ Hard to explain.

To what extent?

I've heard all this before, but at least they admit that there were some bad things in previous games.

Let's see if they can improve the control of the players (no skating, but responsive to subtle control movements), maybe make the passes crisper, and change some of the other little things... it might be playable, which will be quite novel for them.

On a personal note, I absolutely hate how they list the player names on the crawl. At least add something else so one player's name isn't up there for scoreless stretches.

Live 09 was playable.

Live 09 is extremely playable and what sliding. They have perfect footplanting and really move nicely.

You must be talking about ps2 or something.

Maybe he's talking about 2k9.

I also think it's extremely playable and the only problems I have with Live are rebounding and blocking, which seems like they have fixed.

NBA Live 10 might have a chance to make a run for their money this year, finally. Because I feel that 2k has taken a huge step backward in 2k9. 2k8 was such a better game game-play wise, but so much behind 2k9 in graphics. If only they could gel the 2 together, it would be tough for EA to top 2k for another year. But I guess we'll see in another couple months.

Re: NBA Live 10 - New Team, New Direction (IGN)

My plea is that they don't over do it. I felt Live 09 was a solid game. Not necessarily a better game but, a more fun game than 2k9. The spacing, drive and kick, and pick and roll game are pretty top notch. Also, it is much easier to replicate real life stats (with proper slider adjustments) than it is in 2k. 2k never figured out how to correctly credit an assist.

And the fact that you can pretty much get a wide open jump shot anytime you want. That's what bothered me the most about Live '09, especially multiplayer wise.
