Re: Patch 1 Impressions (360 Patch only, PS3 to follow)

Subs work now, gotta take it off of auto and put it on manual. So guys aren't subbed right back in after you take them out.

Played a guy just now, he's using the Rockets. Has A.Brooks I'm up on him, have my elbow up against his back as he has his back turned turns around and shots a 3 all in one motion hand all in his face.........CASH!!!!!

Put some albino dude in the game I don't know who he is but he was pulling up with him, Cash!!!!!

I've never in my life seen so many people so comfortable behind the 3pt line with no regard to having ANY type of skill at all since "Double Dribble"

One more chance for me. I'm done until the DNA update, if that doesn't fix things it's a trade in for me. Such a great game but this flaw right here is really a game killer.

i dont think its the dna, IMO its the shooting mechanic i have mastered the entire bulls team and last night i went 13-17 against a dude, now i never play online this was done as a test...

ya'll wanted timed releases welcome to hell, i remember this from 2k7 playing my boy when they used the mavs kidd was 5-5 then he would use the heat wade would hit 3's now anybody knows in 2007 wade had NO jumper

i have hit 3's with duncan multiple times, to play online you have to be a hardcore junkie of the game aka cheeser, casual realistic playing will get you a loss.....

i have edited the dna success to all 0 and still hit shots offline with ease thats not the problem.

I don't believe the people posting insane shooting numbers with the likes of Tim Duncan. When any reputable poster has posted stats, they haven't been far off reality.

Re: NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360 Patch Only, PS3 to Follow)

the issue IMO does not need a patch, different people have different skill levels, some know the game animations better than others....

this dude that has issues is upset because he cant drain shots on cats when he is contested thats not an issue for an update...

get better and better and better and you will make more shots too, no one is using edited rosters some people are better at getting " perfect releases"

i for example cannot shoot with ray allen but i can get hit 1 or 2 with rondo, its just me not getting the release right.

and if you feel the % are too high then you can use that to your advantage as well, pick a team with better shooters and see how you do, i have seen guys hit 5 3pters in the nba who are terrible from the 3...

if they made it absolute then the complaint would be the game is scripted where guys can never peform beyond his abilities.

"You can't let the CPU defend other players. You have to manually contest it. I had that problem and still do. I was just used to playing with 1 position on defense without using player lock and let the CPU contest other shots."

Then why isn't Kobe scoring a ton? Why doesn't LeBron score a ton when I leave the CPU on him? It's not the way I play. Why do I have to do extra to stop Fisher, but not to stop Kobe?

Re: Patch 1 Impressions (360 Patch only, PS3 to follow)

Guess what, all those players you mentioned are deadly from three point land in real life. It's hard to gauge these gripes without video or statistical evidence. Some people have posted shooting numbers complaining about it when the percentage isn't that far off from real life numbers. Without video evidence to see how someone plays, how can people still gripe about this? Whenever someone starts jacking threes on me I trap that player as soon as he touches the rock as well as playing off ball denial defense.
Not trying to say this wasn't an issue before, but I have found more than manageable counters to this style of play.

Listen, it's unrealistic I don't care what anybody says. Yeah those players can hit 3's but go pull up some stats from nba.com where you've saw players shooting 16/25 from the 3 on a consistent basis.

I've never saw anything like this in Live 09 either. I should not have to trap Nelson, Mo Will or any of those players, they are not trap worthy. Takes away from the realism of the game. You post up some footage of these guys getting trapped like a Lebron or Kobe would and I'll retract my statements.

You want stats, I'll give you that. I'll play a couple more games and post up my stats and let everyone see what it is. I've done it before, no problem doing it again.

This game is ran off of stats, In real life theirs no percentages or stats out their on the court, only on paper. I've yet to see Nelson shoot a terrible % especially when you play those guys that take 25 or better attempts with him from beyond the 3pt line.

If Nelson was to take 38 3pt attempts in a real game best believe his % would be in the 20's a majority of the time. But in this game you don't have to worry about that cause %'s play the game, so if you have a 3pt shooter you'll always be in the game.

Wide open, I'll give them that, sure % should be good for those, but if I'm contesting every shot %'s should be really low. And these guys hit far too many contested 3's. If plays were ran and they got them open that would be understandable, but to just come down and fire up 3's all game long with people in your face is another thing. And to add to the fact that fatigue doesn't play a part in any of this. They need fatigue and they also need to add late game 3pt %'s as well because during the course of a game shooters lose lift off of their jump shots from fatigue.

If they would just revert back to how things were in Live 09 this game would be great. Nobody including myself mentioned anything about 3pters last year so why the problem this year????????????????????????????????????????????

i was reading your earlier post so i said what the hell let me play LA on the update, as i type this fisher has 7pts on 3-8 and kobe has 4pts on 2-6 gasol 2-3 and bynum 1-3 odom 1-3 shot in the first Q

i mean it is what it is i just edited my rosters, but i did notice in a test last night i edited the entire LA team off ball awareness by 20.

they ran the offense way better and kobe had 29 at half time, gasol had 14 bynum had 7

with LA the off ball movement is not right IMO so fisher just jacks it, gasol never posts up neither does bynum so fish has no options but when edited they move and get into position fisher had 2 shots

So what about the mpg stats glitch in dynasty? Is this EVER going to be fixed? This patch was huge and no love for dynasty?! I read the fouls were fixed I think. So will that help with mpg? I don't think fouls were the problem. I had games were Parker would play 22 minutes with 2 personal fouls! While R. Mason would log 37 minutes! Come on really? So I hope this WAS fixed because I'm not waiting 2 months for another patch to start a dynasty. I guess I should rent 2k to see how bad the bugs I've heard about are. I know their association is better. Live is a great game but please EA fix dynasty stats.

I Love the Auto point guard switch. Now I can see the entire celebration play out when players make big plays

Re: NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360 Patch Only, PS3 to Follow)

Put everything back on default settings, Superstar 12 minutes and liking it so far, the DNA Roster update is still wrong. But either way, just played against Cleveland with my Lakers and so far the game is much different. Love having the post move back. Also I notice LBJ went to the paint and gave passes to Shaq and even his PG passed the ball around on smart screen plays.

Just 1 game so far, and it's a noticeable change, and the CPU doesn't hit everything anymore.

Re: NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360 Patch Only, PS3 to Follow)

Just played the Kings online.

He started 8-8 from the field with Nocioni. All off the dribble shots, 6 of them 3s. I was up in his face contesting each shot. He missed one after that but then knocked in 2 more, I quit at this point. Not worth the time.

I checked DNA, Nocioni is 18% off the dribble, so HOW is this happening? Before the patch I never saw anything THIS bad.

The 2 games I played before that were great for the most part. Something is still very broken in terms of 3pt % though. Maybe it's only certain players?

Maybe this all ties into NO FATIGUE online. When/if fatigue is turned on for oline play maybe these crazy %'s won't happen ???

I'm not saying this is fact....just a making a suggestion.

Maybe try playing an unranked game online and turn fatigue on and see what happens.

Re: NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360 Patch Only, PS3 to Follow)

Initial impressions:

pace seems a bit faster

foul animations added/new contest animations added (is it me?)

definitely more fouls - even on Pro

default settings seem perfect

more variation on cpu's part when attacking

protect the ball dribble anim looks natural and nice

blocking seems better

rebounding feels crisper

passing more crisp and tightened too ( there seems to be a new two-handed pass animation that looks gorgeous

so far so good
