    Unnecessary Overtime Glitch

    Just finished a tournament game with a friend. We ended regulation tied at 44. Even though we ended tied, one team reacted like they had won and the other reacted like they had lost. Then instead of going to an overtime, the game just went to the end of game menu, where I could look at the stats, highlights, quit..etc. etc. We weren't allowed to finish the game. Again this was in the tournament mode, it was not Play Now or Dynasty.

    I hope this isn't a glitch for all modes.


    We played on PS3

      Don't remember any. But I'm not 100% sure.

      It was for sure a tie score. The game stats showed it 44-44.

        NBA Live 10 has this exact same problem...

        No way EA releases two games with such a massive bug...especially now that the LIVE bug has been well known for a month.

        Are you 100% sure.

        If so...just wow. Unbelievablely poor.

          100%. Does NBA Live have this for all modes?

            Yes...season mode, dynamicsc season...online...one off games...

            There's a massive bug...goaltending doesn't register on the scoreboard.

            So...neither you or the CPU know the score late in a game.

            I.e. if it's 68-68...but there was a goaltending earlier in the game, the real score is 70-68...

            So...even though you see "68-68"...that's not the score.

            You will get games where you lose 70-66 go into overtime.

            You will get games where you tie...not go into into overtime.

            You will get games where the CPU jacks up a 3 (when only down 2) at games end...because the score isn't what you see on the screen.

            That's why you saw no O/T... and a tied game with one team celebrating.

            It's one of the biggest, game killing bugs, I have seen in a sports game.

            EA really don't give a rats about their customers if they've sold you this knowing for weeks now about this bug.

            Almost unbelievable they'd sell this thing with the bug...knowing of all the complaints LIVE users have already told them about.

              This might be different though. I hit quit game, and it went back to the tournament bracket and showed our game as not played. If OSU had truly won they game as they reacted, wouldn't they have advanced to the next round of the tournament after I quit the game?

                  That's the exact same bug then.

                  It makes the score go haywire as it does register into the games computing or whatever somehwere.

                  It just doesn't register on the score you see on your screen.

                  I.e. you think the score is 70-70.

                  The screen shows 70-70.

                  But internally the game has it as 72-70.

                  Basically...at the end of a game, no one has a clue what's going to happen.

                    Unecessary OT Bug?

                    Was playing the second game in my dynasty, coming off an OT win versus James Madison (I am Harvard). So game two, I am playing Northwestern, and the game is tied at 33 with about 35 seconds to go. I steal it and send the pass to the corner where my player hits a 3. I am not winning 36-33 with about 13 to go. They take a timeout. Inbound the ball, miss the three but tip it back, score is 36-35 with 4 to go. I inbound the ball game over...right? no they send the game to OT somehow, and the score was 36-35. EVEN AT THE START OF OT THE BOARD READ 36-35. Then I play OT my starting guard fouls out within the first 20 seconds and i lose by 7.

                    Anyone else seeing this?

                        That's one of the biggest? Really? Becuase I can think of several off the top of my head:

                        - How about in Madden when you knew it was a run or pass for your opponent based on the blocking assignment?
                        - What about in 2K Football when the O-lineman would stand on a pass play or crouch on a run play?
                        - What about the infamous Left handed [lack of] power glitch in MVP Baseball?

                        You see?! You're giving way to much hype to this bug

                          Yes...it's a monster.

                          This is a basketball game bro........and at the end of a game, the most crucial time:

                          The CPU doesn't know the score...

                          The late game AI goes crazy...you are ahead by 3, but the CPU hits a 2 to "tie" the game...

                          Game ends 66-66...but you lose.

                          Game ends 71-70...and you go into O/T.

                          The score is 70-70...and they foul you and send you to the free throw line because the CPU players think they are behind.

                          And a tonne of other scenarios.

                          It's a killer for a basketball game.

                              No disrespect my friend...but I don't see how anyone can claim completely messed up late game AI + tied games "being won", lost games "going to O/T" etc isn't one of the worst bugs.

                              Get back to me after you play the championship game...are down by 3 with a few seconds left...hit a huge 3 ball to "tie" it up. Get yourself hyped up for O/T.

                              And then watch the game end.
