Did anybody else notice that, on the website, they changed the patch release for the Xbox from tomorrow to "coming soon"?



I really hope it still drops tomorrow.

Nooooooooooo....

Yeah, I intentionally missed two free throws at the end of the game to keep it a three point game. Highly disappointing.

Pendjng the situation, that's happened plenty this year. I had the exact opposite just happen. I'll upload shortly.

For all those who didnt read ...

We also received some questions from fans about how the update is affecting rosters.

Synergy tendencies have always been a part of making NBA LIVE play like the real deal, and today we’ve added some new features to make the integration even better.

Synergy feeds us roster data every day so lineups reflect the real world:

- We reflect the last game played. That’s sometimes that can be two or three nights ago.
- All players are always available in Dynasty, Rising Star and Ultimate Team
- If a particular player didn’t dress, he will not show up in the lineup when entering Play Now (Both Offline and Online)
- If a player DNP but was on the bench, he’ll be available (unless there were 12 active players who played in the game, then DNP won’t be in the lineup).

This allows us to be in lockstep with the NBA, and always reflects the actual starting lineups on a day-to-day basis.

Some of my main complaints were addressed. Thank you!

Love that the field goal percentages are no longer sky high in every game I play.

Props to EA for addressing a lot of the concerns the community had! A lot of things were smoothed out, sadly, some were not. Random tidbits:

The game has a smoother feel to it overall...from the movement to the shot releases and it makes a HUGE difference in the feel of the game, great job there. Like how good the pull up and step back game is now...

The pick and pop game is now there! I don't know what tweak was made to make this possible but it is definitely alive and well post patch.

I like the misses from 3 and inside...but unfortunately, this has made the A.I a complete non challenge. They have nothing for me now that they miss 3's and can't spam points inside. I haven't won a game vs. CPU (SS/6 min qtrs) by less than 12 in 5 tries...and that's not to brag, they just don't have a way of scoring.

If they were going to nerf these other aspects of the game they should've given a boost to the mid range game. That probably would've helped balance things out.

In the worst news, the late game A.I, (as well as the post up glitches) are still there. Tested this in my 6th game. A 2 was taken down 3 by Rose...

Thanks for the detailed impressions....that is a huge letdown re the late game AI.

As you know, it has been there for 14 and 15...and the fact they have not fixed it basicaly means they can't. Which means Live 16 and any other Live using this engine is stuck with it also. Late game AI broken = worst possible game killer in a sports game. It just does not get worse that the cpu taking a 2 down 3 as the buzzer sounds....completely ruins the experience.

Re the difficulty...I know WTF uses the Cavs and you use the Spurs...and I have wondered for a while how on earth you both could possibly be having close games etc. This game was too easy using the Knicks even as Melo is bacially unstoppable and can spin off and dunk at will. I had to switch to the T Wolves to get decent, close, games.

[WTF]

Re: NBA Live 15 Title Update #2 Available Now For PS4, Tomorrow For Xbox One

I use the Bucks mostly.

[grodbetatted]

Anyone had a chance to test the late game AI? The patch notes mention it, but they also said the out of bounds stuff was fixed and that is simply not true.

I am glad they have at least acknowledged it though.

If anyone has a close game and the AI plays appropriately, please try and video the last min

I don't see taken a 2 point shot with 10 seconds left necessarily a horrible act of AI, if they try or try to foul on the inbound. Meaning the two was the good shot at that point in time, so they took it and to prolong the game they foul to and see if they can get a better 3 point shot on their next possession or pray for a missed free throw. Hmm maybe my basketball logic is messed up, but that sounds right to me

Those saying that at end of game 2s are taken instead of 3s how much time is left? If there are 7-10 seconds left I think taking a 2 is ok...if it's occurring with less time than that or at the buzzer that's a problem...

If that was the logic, yes....but....

That is not what happens bro...they take the 2 down three even if it is the last shot of the game.

I.e. 3 seconds left...down 3....they drive for the lay up 2.

One second left....last shot...down 3....they take a 2.

The issue is that the cpu has no idea about the score or time left.

... they just call a random play like they normally would.

And 95% of the time that random play is a 2. If they are down 3 with 4 seconds left and the cpu sees the lane open they always drive and take the 2 as the buzzer sounds.

I have had the cpu call a time out down 3 with 7 seconds left....call a post up play...post up their big, who backs down and shoots a hook shot as time expries.

Down three...and they post up a big for a last second hook shot 2.

Nah man, lol

This isn't the CPU trying to get a two for one...they are just simply brain dead down the stretch. Walt pretty much described what happens a lot of the time perfectly. I also just had the Grizzlies inbound the ball down 53-48 and they ran the clock down to the buzzer to launch a 3 with C. Lee. Will upload it shortly.

Something's just wrong with they way they are programmed to execute in late game situations...

Re: NBA Live 15 Title Update #2 Available Now For PS4, Tomorrow For Xbox One

I don't think they focused on fixing it for this year. I guess all they had time to do was graphics, animation, onboarding and presentation. If not this year they definitely have to fix it next year along with deeper modes and customization.
