Re: No News on the Timing of a NBA Live 15 Demo

^ This is exactly what OS has become. Can't even voice your opinion without getting attacked for it. Instead of trying to address me or correct me, members like to resort to insults. I could just as easily say your posts come off as trying to hard to impress 23 but I prefer not to act like a child.

I call it like I see it....

You've once again derailed a thread for no reason...You still can't provide a quote saying what you claimed the article said...and go off and some "I've talked to people off this site that said...." rant when you get called out on it...sorry, it's wack and comes off as trying too hard.

If you don't like what "OS has become" why not leave?

Not entirely true. A demo will determine a purchase or not for some.

I honestly don't think it matters at ALL.

There are the same people here who either said they liked last years game or are going out to pre order no matter if its been seen or not. Some of these same ones are asking for a demo but they're going to buy the game regardless.

I told you the article was edited. The title didnt have timing in it and a few things in the article were changed/added. I didn't screenshot the original article so I can't show you anything.

Why do the "I've talked to people off this site that said" bother you? You aren't a moderator on this site. Those comments weren't addressed to you. Don't argue with me about a comment that wasn't even directed at you.

As far as leaving OS if I don't like what it's become, seriously are you a moderator or something? I can just as easily ask you to leave if you dont like my comments but again, i'm not a child. Let it go and let's move on.

Article never said there wasn't a demo coming out...but yeah...more than happy to drop it, "it" doesn't have a point. Keep fishin though.

Anyway, it would be pretty funny if the demo came out tomorrow and made all of this moot.

Looking forward to test driving this game!

I don't care when it drops, as long as it drops so I can try the game. Last years demo saved me money, hopefully this year's will earn EA/Tiburon some money.

Lol. "Let it go and move on" continued to troll the Live forums for "Live bashing." AKA anything less than unwavering optimism and support of NBA Live.

Hopefully 24, we can discuss the quote i'm about to post below respectfully.

The article was titled "No News On A NBA Live 15 Demo" originally and it didn't have the twitter mention and some of the stuff with "concrete information" and "pre release". Add this quote below and I interpreted it as we're not getting a demo. It still does come off as we're not getting a demo but to a lesser extent.

The good news is that EA Access users will get a six hour trial of the game before release, and its likely at least some media outlets will also have the game soon. Thus, its likely we'll start to find out more about this year's NBA Game from EA soon enough. It just would have been nice for users to get a chance to play some 5-on-5 action before release to make their minds up that way. Here's to hoping the recent trends of no pre-release sports game demos is an unfortunate series of events that won't be repeated next season!

I've criticized Live King B but i've tried to be reasonable about it. Live should be criticized and people should be cautious but not with a double standard. I'm not buying Live without trying a demo.

But I am going to give them a chance to show us what they have this year before I rip them apart like I did last year and with Elite 11. Some people are judging Live 15 based off what Elite 11 and Live 14 were rather than judge 15 on it's own.

The only thing I want to say about that is judging off of previous history should be ok. You either build loyalty to your product, or you build ccriticism. Live over the last decade has taken countless steps that deserve criticism. If you bought Live 14 and were waiting on Elite 11 and Live 13, you have every reason to scrutinize every delay, misstep and attempt to shield the game. Fool me once shame on you.... you know the rest. With all due respect it would take a brand new team and approach for me to give them the benefit of the doubt at this point. But when you promise a demo and other things in an open letter and follow through on none of them, as well as delay a game, it's hard to ignore the recent history as well.

B. Don't ever bother man. Other members and visitors know you're speaking what'sreal. I rosm around tthese forums and can vouch for everything you been saying.

A demo isn't going to change my mind. Just want to see 5v5 player movement.

I know exactly where your coming from. I think you can criticize and be cautious of Live but you can't judge Live 15 itself that way because we haven't even given them a chance to follow through on what they've said.

The bolded part is my biggest issue. Why isn't Live being given a chance to release a demo? They did tweet out earlier today that we're getting a demo. I will rip EA/Live apart if they don't follow through on the promises they've made. But lets give them a chance to follow through on the things they've said before we criticize them.

I even said earlier, it's inexcusable for EA not to let us fans know that we won't get an early demo due to the Oct 28 delay. Reasons like that are why they haven't been relevant in a long time.

As far as recent history, Live has released a demo for Elite 11 and Live 14 so the past actually favors them when it comes to a demo but the past is the past. What they have or haven't done before should not determine what they do now (whether it's good or bad).

Re: No News on the Timing of a NBA Live 15 Demo

According to Live's twitter the game will be platinum by the end of this week so I guess they were planning to deliver a retail-build demo since its delay, trying to avoid any game-breaking bugs (ala Jesus Bynum) which could not convince people to get the game.

Platinum?
