      First, as a Bulls fan, i can't stand Taj Gibson face. Also the rookies McDermott and Mirotic. Really bad faces. Any word if EA will update more gamefaces to the game?

      Yes there will be several player updates throughout the season. I know McDermott was scanned, I think I saw a picture of him. The others, I can't say for sure, but I'd assume they'd get them in
      Second, how the roster updates and sinergy are going? Is it working?

      For this one, just check the impressions thread here. I think everyone is very pleased with how the game is evolving daily in the gameplay department. If Not daily, then at least weekly. Synergy (or something) at work.
      Third, is this trial version exacly like the full version? What's the differences/improvments if any?

      The demo doesn't have the In Game update, I'm not sure about the day one patch. The In Game Updates help the flow of the game, I'm seeing new animations, different ball/rim interactions, just a lot better flow to the game.
      Well, i really appreciate any help, as a lifelong live and EA sports fan, i really want this game to succeed, and they're almost there, but really needs some improvments. With that said, i like a lot of things, that's always makes me come back.

        So idk what happened but a total shift of power has happened over the last few games.

        I was destroying teams early on in my Mavs franchise but now teams are shooting lights out and I'm in a shootout every game. They shoot the three ball lights out, I'll even contest the shot and it still goes in.

        L 88-77 vs the Sixers (Just a bad game offensively)
        L 88-87 vs the Timberwolves (JR Smith missed a game winning shot)
        W 97-94 over the Hornets (Dirk hits a game winning three with 0.1 left)
        W 95-92 over the Wizards (Jameer Nelson sanked two free throws late to win)

          Well, i keep coming back to live. I think when i watch tv, the sound and the graphics of live looks more like the real baskettball. The other game looks more like cartoon to me. I love live atmosphere and especially ball/ rim physics and sound.
          I'm almost ready to jump in this game, despiste it wasn't in my plans. But i really want to known some things, please anyone who can help i appreciate.

          - Not sure if they will update game face's they may.
          - There was just a roster update couple days ago, Synergy updates everyday.
          - The actual game version is different from the demo, as there was a separate game update when you launch the actual game. It's not as easy to score as it was in the demo even though it is relatively for me to score on Superstar in the real game.

          If your a Dynasty Mode player though this mode is not deep, but gameplay wise it can be fun. But the physics in the paint needs ALOTTA work collision wise.

            We need a tips thread stickied.

            Here is mine, still experimenting with it though.

            When you are on D and the ball is in the air (a cpu shot has been taken) press B to double team. What this seems to do is make more than 1 or if you are lucky, 2 players go for the rebound.

            Its like your players try to double team the ball during its flight so you almost "awaken" your rebounders to follow the ball to the hoop.

            Now it gets a bit weird if you have already hit B to double team with the ball on the floor during the cpu O possession. By weird I mean the game seems to ignore the command if you give it again with the ball in the air. Its hit or miss.


            I am sure we have all seen how pathetically passive our rebounders are in general. This B button discovery was because after once again suffering giving up a rebound because my 85+ ovr players in lut stand there passively watching the cpu grab a rebound, no boxing out, no fighting for positioning, often not even jumping...well, i just started hitting every button in frustration, then I noticed B made a player on my team hustle to the basket and made another player actually jump without me manually doing it.

            So there, try it out. Lets hope it works more than just the second half in my last game.

                  Feel free to PM me if you have any questions and I don't get back to you. I didn't see your earlier comment. I try to at least respond to everyone who comments toward me directly.

                  Enjoy the game.

                    EA has added in face scans.

                    And yes, the magic synergy/game update box in the left bottom corner is always up to something...who knows what but yeah. The game seems to be improving each time you turn it on.

                    The physics in the paint just need to accept that height and weight and positioning do really matter. Then it would work.

                    Maybe somebody can find a video on youtube of trey burke forearm pushing roy hibbert backwards 6 feet and then performing a basic layup IRL and we could all watch it and enjoy it and then agree that was a one time thing and wont ever happen again.

                    So why does it happen 7 times a game in Live?

                    Honestly, I can forgive a lot with this game but that smaller player on an animation path of destiny that I cant interrupt is pure garbage.

                        I don't believe so for this year. Injuries during the game were never a part of patching in I don't believe. It's on the list for 16 currently. There are some nice "stumbling" animations in there already, so ankle injuries, etc should be fairly easy to implement. A few times I've seen guys go down that I knew was a knee injury or something, but then remember no injuries.







                        I recorded a game that somebody had 7 fouls. First time I'd seen that glitch. Noticed it after the game was over, went to see why he didn't play much, and saw 7 fouls

                        Thanks WTF for answering our questions. I'm a big dynasty mode player in whatever sports games I may be playing. This season I'll probably be playing mostly "the other basketball game", but I'm not ready to give up on NBA Live going forward. I like the direction they're taking and I'm confident they're about a year away from putting together a fun dynasty mode! EA excels in atmosphere in their sports games, which is what keeps me coming back. Their detailed arenas are second to none!

                          More of a suggestion, but things like this would make the game a lot smoother. Here, Cody Zeller is late getting back and due to Lance driving to the basket, his man is engaged in helping...here Cody has a clear lane to cut to the basket and Lance spots him...he starts to cut and then suddenly cuts off his drive allowing his man to get back in front of him...



                          this happens quite a bit on cuts to basket it seems...is there something I'm doing wrong? Maybe there's a way to lead pass I'm not familiar with? I iconed passed and pointed the stick toward the basket here..

                            Each time I play this game I feel like it is improving. The field goal percentage at the rim appears to be decreasing. I have seen more missed layups today than all the games previously played combined
