yes, and I agree(above question you asked). That's one of things I think you will like in this years game. You won't feel that "suction" when getting into the lane. The game is really free and you feel like you've made a play on the ball/or got that basket rather than a elongated sequence playing out. Those elongated sequence look much better but don't feel great, especially when you're 25+ games in.

I totally agree. I'm also looking forward to how this translates to pressing the ball handler in iso situations out on the perimeter.

Sticking with the animations theme, one thing Live 10 did really well IMO was capture off ball activity and motion. How has this been improved upon? Will this new physics based engine effect what we see transpire upon certain plays. Will players with less momentum be more susceptible to being caught in a screen longer than someone who was quicker and more agile?

Am also curious to hear the answers to bigeasts questions as well. I hope some of these animations are more context sensitive and situational so were not seeing a dunk fest.

Gotta say it's cool that this dude is coming on here and discussing the game 1 to 1. It's easier to give this game a chance when there's a face to the company. Alot better than being left in the dark.

Hear hear. Love it when the devs engage in real discussion with the community. Usually only happens with Indie game devs in my experience.

"It's been rough being a Live supporter on the webs the past few years." - I totally get it! I would be saying the same thing. Like I mentioned earlier, it's easy to come on here and bash EA basketball but that does zero for the community.

btw i think each company's goal by the end of this generations cycle should be to have a game with real-time physics that's very fluid. combined with astonishing graphics.

OG you said that you hardly use the dribbling moves?

....one of my issues with Live 10..for all the control that was said to be had, It felt like crossovers were mandatory for getting by your man....

so would you say you can take angles/ use simple bursts of speed to get by your defender in this years game?

Ogsports I asked this question plenty of times and never get a response. Is it possible players can lose the ball if it bounce outside the contact cage and what happens if I move from one move before the ball touch the hand?

I hardly use the dribble moves in Fifa. You can go by your defender in all kinds of ways. Hesi's, stutter step hesi, in outs etc. With the new loco system and physics dibble system, it's a nice balance. You have to take more realistic angles when defending the ball. Depending on when you branch, you will get different first step speeds as well.

No, they will just be slower in respecting the LS. If you try to move while it's on the ground the hands and feet will adjust to whatever you're trying to do next.

Can you answer any questions on Rising Stars or will we have to wait for some more info on that?

Re: NBA Live 14 Signature Styles, Controls, Coaching Strategies, Adjustments & More

Hey OG will you guys have a hangar or something similar to that in this years game? I loved that about Live 10.

Re: NBA Live 14 Signature Styles, Controls, Coaching Strategies, Adjustments & More

More questions..

Are there Specific Inbounds/last sec shot plays and ability to call plays during a timeout?

Do you feel you were able to implement/improve all the great features and little things from live 10?

Can we get the live 10 servers back on!?

I asked a similar question about practice mode. I loved that Hangar idea and getting different guys (Rooks, Adidas, etc..) in there to play with.
