NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

Re: NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

I'm referring to anyone who thinks that comment applies to.

And yes, they followed up on their word to release updates AFTER they were catching flak from people for not doing what THEY had promised/told us. And I see they learned their lesson from that mistake because they're not doing it this year, which is probably a good thing.

As for if I think the game was $60? I don't think any game that limits or basically removes user customization is worth $60 and you'll be hard pressed to find anyone that disagrees with that sentiment.

Don't care about what they say they're going to do at this point. I don't even care about getting any new information or any new stills from them because that's never been an issue. They've done enough talking over the years that it just goes in one ear and out the other.

Just release a demo/game and we'll go from there.

Wait and see only works when you can trust the person behind the product and in this case the company, EA has to earn that respect back from the consumer, I respect your opinion WTF but we are a little more than a month from release and less than that before someone gets the game early, we have to see something soon before EA loses all chance to control the source material and not like last year when they claimed that their trailer was 100 percent gameplay and it clearly was not.

Truth be told man, I think that could be the best thing for Live right now.

The old days are fading away because everything is about cheap product and getting an huge return on your investment, (that's normally a smart business move, but not when you have a lot to prove to the community).
They should have released trailers, asked for the community what they are looking for as far as inprovements because development cycles are small. We should ve had all the info from the start. It just looks like EA lied.

Not sure about that, their are a lot of people out there that can make a great game look ugly.

Re: NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

No disrespect videlsports, but that's what I do now for the OS NBA LIVE community. I gather constructive feedback, ideas, and other information, and work with EA to help the game along.

The big issue with that, is that last year there wasn't a ton of constructive criticism or feedback. If guys continually say "this game sucks", that doesn't help. A lot of what made OS into what it is today, was the constructive criticism, the long winded posts about what can be changed, how it can be changed, or why it needs to be changed. If it sucks, post why it sucks and how you'd fix it.

EA values the OS community, which is why I'm doing what I'm doing now in being a Game Changer.

There's a trailer coming this week. If you see stuff that you don't like, let me know in a way that I can get it in front of the right person. If you see stuff that you do like, post it.

I care about making this game a great game. There aren't a lot of titles out there that grab me personally, and make me want to play. I want this to be one of those titles. I saw a lot of things last year that was a big step in the right direction, things that I personally look for in a basketball title. Now, the rest of the game is catching up and going in the right direction.

I have a feeling tomorrow will be a huge day for Live. Most games, news, and trailers release on Tuesday for some reason..I wonder if 2K will try to counter EA by dropping news???

No need to counter since it's just scheduled news as you speculated...

Every tuesday at 4pmPST. And yes, it takes two to tango and we want to tango.

Re: NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

Can I just say maybe the fact that they're so heavily invested in making the game better from a money and time standpoint that the Marketing budget took a Hit?

Re: NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

You'd think the 2k fan boys would want a second great game to make their competitors better. For me better is a good thing

[kels85]

Live fans love to damage control. Face it something is not right and some of youare saying they are holding back to polish the game really? Said that last year and look how that turned out. 2K at least showed a a couple of trailers hell even a off screen gameplay video. It wasnt mind blowing, but they are showing something and gave details on this year game.

These are my sentiments exactly. Your reputation determines how your product is viewed. I remember rolling my eyes at the stuff Rex and the other Madden diehards were saying about Madden this year because, "I've heard it all before". Madden released, and the game is awesome. It still has a few issues, which the devs have acknowledged. And I am cool with that. I don't expect a perfect game. You give me some solid core gameplay, and I'm there! I have probably logged more minutes playing Madden 15 than I did the entire year with M25. Now, I am a believer. Next year during the buildup to Madden 16, I'm gonna put way more stock in what those guys say because they have delivered to this point. NBA Live has to get credibility back first before they can be given the benefit of the doubt.
