NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

Re: NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

have you seen the changes the other game has done? the roster
updates, bug fixes etc. i know for a fact that the last couple of years the other games hasn't addressed a single game changing bug, post release and their roster updates was as bad as live's is now. competition.

the lack of support and addressing real issues with live 14 is another talk, which I'm sure we can agree on.

but the fact the live 14 exist, is the only reason why the other game has supported their game after release.

I just recently played rewind in NBA Live 14 and the rosters were somewhat updated. They had Jason Collins on the Nets and Ryan Kelly on the Lakers, even though Kelly hasn't been apart of the regular roster update since Live came out. The only thing that was missing was players traded at the trade deadline, even though they did get rid of the players that were traded off the team, no Steve Blake on the Lakers no Jason Terry on the Nets. Even though Live is doing a horrible job updating the rosters, we should be getting on 2K too for using Euro League players and lesser known players to update theirs. There's two other players besides DeAndre Liggons using his face, if you don't believe me check out the free agent pool. It's just pure laziness on both of their parts.

We get that 2k needs to be criticized too. That's what the 2k forum is for. The truth is though one company put out a solid game that has bugs and needed patching. Another company put out a beta version of their game and charged you 60.00 to be a beta tester that they really arent going to listen to.

Re: NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

Dudes spend entirely too much time trying to justify EA's crap by bringing up what 2K is or isn't doing. 2K is irrelevant to EA getting you to spend 60 dollars on their product with the lure of full, updated rosters within an hour of each night's slate of games and yet you're excusing them for having roster moves from over a month ago. Again, dudes were in here over the summer pushing how great them updating the soundtrack with new music was going to be as if that was a game changer and they aren't even doing that ****. But you want to give that a pass because of what another game is or isn't doing.

Also, Nima you lose all credibility by saying that 2K hasn't addressed any game changing bugs in the last few years, a lie. Then saying the only reason they're doing post release support is because of Live 14. So I guess the three different patches a year we've been getting for every years' game suddenly doesn't count as post release support so that it fits your narrative? You dudes are exactly what's wrong with EA Sports and the NBA Live franchise.

I would assume some people from EA watch these threads and complain about the bashing. Oh well. Stop charging 60.00 for an early beta copy of your title.

Re: NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

King, I saw the same issues and bugs in 2k, year after year, and for the first time this year they actually addressed some of those issues. That's what I'm referring too.

What's wrong with us? We buy a game that doesn't deliver and we're trying to be vocal with our frustrations and the issues with the game, so the devs can get it fixed.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with anyone, besides the devs not addressing real issues.

Re: NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

I'd disagreed there. Unless I am misunderstanding you.

They've addressed plenty of bugs over the years....some successfully, some unsuccessfully, some even resulted in new bugs.
There are also some long standing bugs that haven't been addressed, granted. Point is, they put out 1-3 bug fixes a year, and have for the last 7 years, as have many other sports games. The point is that Live didn't address ANY. Not one complaint in the Bugs and Glitches thread. That's crazy to me.

If Live has tried, my attitude would be completely different.

No there is definitely something wrong with a lot of people. People voicing their frustration and calling them out on things they were supposed to be doing being met with people like you coming in talking about getting on 2K's case too is a problem. First, this is the NBA Live forum, not the 2K forum. If you have a problem with what 2K is or isn't doing, go over there and post about it like the rest of the OS community. Nobody is over there talking about how it's DRM and VC is cool because at least it's not the problems Live has and rightfully so, it's the 2K forums and even if Live is around or not, it's a problem that needs to be addressed. If 2K Sports curled up in a ball and died right now and never released again, NBA Live is a turd of a franchise at this point in time. It's flaws will still be there. So bringing up 2K everytime someone calls out a problem with Live does absolutely NOTHING to correct that issue. The only thing that strategy has shown to accomplish is that you'll continue to get crap served to you for 60 bucks a year. Harsh? Possibly. Truth? Absolutely.

If EA knew anything about marketing, they'd sell Live 15 for $20-30 on Release Day like 2k did with 2k5.

I can't even imagine what Elite and Live 13 would've been if Live 14 was an upgrade that actually released.

No offense man, but are you serious?

[BiggD]

All I wanted was to be able to adjust the roster and ratings.... It's 2014, how the hell do you leave an option like that out of a sports game!!!

Re: NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

I was fortunate to go back and play NBA Live 10 today, and all you can feel is dissapointed when you compare it to Live 14. They degraded Live 14 so bad its not even funny! The damage they placed on themselves is irreparable IMO. I don't know where their future stands with their basketball franchise.

NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

I think at this very moment the biggest letdown for me is yet again I feel abandoned by EA ala NCAA Basketball 10

A few months back EA producers/Dev were on here chiming in and now that we have SERIOUS CONCERNS, questions about features/bugs that haven't been addressed they go MIA and I'm pretty confident we won't hear from them again until Live 15 and I'm not even holding my breath that Live 15 is gonna happen now after yet another abandonment.

I love competition between titles but hell this ain't competition. This is comical at best

At the end of the day my "Word, Commitment" on different life's encounters with people means everything. No matter how big/small it may mean to someone. If I give you my word I follow through and if I can't you better damn well believe I'm gonna contact you ASAP.

Re: NBA Live 14 Is Barely Updating Its Players

Another thing that dissapointed me was the lie they said about this being a new team. Well I checked those Live 10 credits, and its pretty much the same guys with a few new guys added for this Live 14 project. You cannot buy all the excuses or pleas these companies are trying to feed us. The company and team have been lazy with no true work ethic or vision for this game's future.
