NBA LIVE 11: Dynasty Wishes

Ok, I noodled around in dynasty today and man it stinks like a monkey.

we need an overhaul.
one year style.

its sooooooo boring and disconnected.

But thank god [wang and the crew] for dynamic season and the awesome core gameplay.
this game Plays like a dream.
but step in dynasty and its a nightmare.

what is there to do? lol
its funny both games have the tmobile sidekick annd somehow 2k managed to make THAT look ten times better.
big orange background with a basketball in it, it looks like a sidekick does in terms of the menus in it even.

it even has the jingle.

Ea's has the usual black and silver death look.
am i being harsh?
small details go a long way.

no its elegant, but has no life to it.


changes need to happen.

- hiring/firing coaches

- bring back legends!

- cutaways to the bench during games [i wanna see that pensive look on Coach D'antonis mug].

- crowd shots [like a guy in the crowd sleeping during a blowout and the announcers saying something bout it]

- nba2k style stat overlays. these ones in live are horrific. truly. this is 2009. whats with the drab black strips? how bout a nice box style overlay, slim and unobtrusive, but bold.

- scores of other games during your game.

- actually to narrow this down, and this sounds like a madden presentation request for years, steal everything from 2k! lol

- fix sim stats

- add a new color commentator and UPGRADE that commentary. They sound so sleepy, man. wow. trade them to tiger and give us van pelt.
zzzzzz

- redo the menus for dynasty, the black and silver is drab and non engaging.
use the espn colors and graphics.

- add highlights/pre post show like madden 10. add a hot chica.

- in-game injuries

- ability to see other box scores from games and view other games.


actually let me cut this short.
in a nutshell, go rent 2k10 look at what they have, and do all that.


play an association game and weep.
its friggin unreal.

simply amazing the presentation.

nothing more to say.

talk of upcoming games, WITH players stats.

TONS of seasonal pop ups.
on and on and on and on.

i wonder how Ea fell so far behind in presentation.

lets get it done guys.

my ea mantra.
you got me back with gameplay, keep me here with presentation.

Like Coolio, lets go all the waaaaaay Liiiive.
