No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

Re: No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

Yet you make one change to the actual NBA players and all hell will break loose with Synergy according to EA...

If this is really the case, and I'm not sure that it is because Live 09 and 10 had player editing along with EA's Synergy and roster updates, right?

But if this is the case for this gen, then maybe they could for this year patch in roster and player editing inside Dynasty mode (and Rising Star) at least? Because these modes are not affected by Synergy or EA's roster updates, and maybe it's not as difficult to implement it in these modes.

could've missed the post your referring too, but I don't think anyone said or implied that....

I never said any one did. I used the word "IF" but I was responding to the thread topic in a general statement. If I was referring to somebody I would've quoted them ....

Never said that. All this "MY" stuff is what drives your age group. And that is fine.


What i was saying is that by Adding Editing, we could have so many more options to choose from in Rosters, making the Longevity of the game last Longer. We could ADD back Legends/College/High School/Fictional/FIBA Players that USERs, including the Younger Generation would enjoy.

IF Servers go down, what are you going to do with the Game? Having your CORE Modes attached to ON-Line is a Issue waiting to happen. Look at the Backlash when guys cant get on Servers. Basically the game is USELESS.

Trust me man I wish those features were in the game for you guys. Hell I still want an online dynasty mode, a team up mode using NBA stars , old school teams , etc... But I understand EA as a business will dedicate time and resources to those that will sell the game first. I know you ,24th, etc... All know that though. It's frustrating it's like when we kept asking for crew in 2k lol . Hopefully it gets patched in .

Re: No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

You know, I think most of us get they had to make a choice during development. The issue (at least for me) is that this should've been one of the basic things in the game from jump when they rebooted the franchise. Starting from 14 it should've already been in the game, but it wasn't. That game was completely barebones regarding modes and gameplay and we couldn't even get the basics back from pretty much every previous bball game. To me it seems they haven't done it because they want to show their system is capable of all the tendency, ratings, and roster updates. That's a issue waiting to happen though as we've seen the last 2 years.

Re: No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

editing will not lead to more sales than the pro am mode you're kidding yourself if you think otherwise . I've played basketball games with some many people my age (22) and younger and all they care about is park , my team , and quick match

I don't think anyone is saying Editing will lead to more sales than ProAm, the point is it's 2015 & we should have both. I understand the technical issues with coding & what not, but as I said before they should've made editing their 1st priority going into this year especially since they told us it would be back. I highly doubt by doing that it would've taken away from development time on Pro Am. Let's face it, Live 16 is still barebones compared to the competition (no allstar weekend, Euro teams, modes, etc..) so I'm finding it hard to believe that after 3 years they still don't have editing in. Editing may not lead to more sales but I guarantee you not having it in will hurt their sales.

*YOU* damn kids are the problem!!![emoji13] I'm kidding. 2 days later and I'm still upset over this. My only somewhat remotely reasonable hope is that this can be remedied in a patch. But I know I'm better off not holding my breath.

Not a problem for me. Still a day 1 purchase

Yeah the game is definitely barebones offline point agreed. I know editing is huge around here.and I know you guys weren't saying it was a bigger seller than pro am but I really feel like EA made a choice to focus on online modes rather than the offline experience based on time and resources . That's the point I was making . I really do think it would've taken development time away from Pro Am and not a case of them being lazy this time lol

Re: No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

This is sad. I expected so much more from ea this year. I only bought live last year cause it was $15. It'll be the same move for me this year. Ive ALWAYS supported both ea and 2k (football&basketball). I dont give a flying toilet about whose better. I grabbing an Xbox1 for Xmas so I'll cop it then.ea this is a real letdown

Re: No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

I'll say it's a mix of the two, but moreso time/resources/programming. As much as we all want to believe it'd be so simple to implement, the truth is, it's a massive undertaking. I didn't think it was. Thought it should be easy. Sounds simple to those of us who don't do it for a living. But when you're implementing big modes from scratch, those take a lot of resources/manpower. That doesn't leave a lot of your crew to work on this other huge task of custom editing, etc.

Myself, I'd 10:1 rather have editing than online, as it isn't my niche. Unfortunately, I'm not in the new age of creating a youtube series broadcasting my Rising Star/Myplayer or Live Run games. But there are a whole lot of people who are in to that sort of thing.

I'll reiterate, although it doesn't take the sting away from it not being there, just try the demo, experiment with the 6 included teams, and see if the gameplay is something that you can support.

It's not the same game as the past few yrs that needed a ton of editing.

why does everyone keep saying this game was built from scratch... that's so not truth. the game is still built of code of elite 11 and thus far......

Re: No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

So you honestly think that advertising this game with "NOW WITH ROSTER EDITING!" Instead of pro-am would have given it more sales? Really?

I'm as hardcore into basketball as they come, and I think that's ridiculous.

I've put like 500 hours into the competition, and do you know how many hours I've spent editing rosters? Maybe 5.

Not really but you are under estimating how much ppl like to update rosters own their own. If EA keeps everything up to date then these complaints won't mean anything

Re: No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

So.. no editing, but what about cameras? Will we have more options to choose from and more camera angles this year? Does anyone know anything? Not being able to zoom in or out or having just 4 or 5 cameras to choose from is extremely weak.

My reasoning for adding editing: http://theeditorscorner.com/forum/thread-1686.html

I dont want to drive the DEVs away from OS, so feel free to comment there as well, as I am Tweeting the DEVs.
