    Re: NBA Live 16 Gameplay Videos

    Animations looked improved, but considering this is a new camera angle, I won't be able to give final judgment on animations. I will have to switch to traditional broadcast to truly see how the animations play out.

    Absolutely loving the fact that shots don't automatically go in perfectly swish. The ball hitting the rim is music to my ears, very organic and natural. Everything would go in swish in Live15's demo.

    One thing that still sticks out is the dribbling mechanics, especially during a crossover. The ball always moves so far away from the body while the legs are spaced so far apart. I believe Kyrie was motioned captured a couple years back doing dribble moves. Maybe that's the problem because the way Kyrie handles is unique. Not everyone dribbles like Kyrie. Would like this to be cleaned up for Live17. Get a few NBA player to motion capture sessions with of dribble mechanics.

    Not going to put too much stock on the AI based on one or two plays. I know MrPrice addressed the Durant open three already, and I can see why that played out. But I would have preferred to see the defender stayed a tad closer towards Durant for the possibility of ball getting kicked out by the driver. We'll see come demo drop.

    That's been acknowledge. The tipped ball will always go to the point guard. Unfortunately not going to be fixed for Live16 but they're looking into getting a fix for it in future Live iterations. At least that is what I read somewhere online.

      As for gameplay, I just can't stand the passing. It's just too floaty. Hopefully there are sliders that can tweak it.
      Agree Pro am looks fun, we need some zip on those passes tho and Im praying its not like 15 ... Drive Drive Drive ... Dunk! If they can reduce the paint spamming and give us weekly challenges to do in the coop mode in Pro Am then this game may last a full year for me.

        I'm trying to helpfully point things out where I can and help nudge y'all lol.

        Some fun Kevin Durant stats...shot 44% from that spot on the floor last season, and shot about 16% better on wide open (6+feet away) 3s than he did on average (56% wide open vs 40% overall).

        44+16...what does that equal? Huh...weird. I've seen a number really close to that before.

          good recognition and rotation leading to a drive and kick....FINALLY. Did the Tiger Woods calm fist when I saw that....

          and Pro Am looks fantastic man...love the atmosphere....I'm ready for Tuesday....the dunk and traffic was ehh but we'll see how it shapes up in a couple of days

          Screener was Serge Ibaka. Possible he's playing him tight on the pick and pop.

            Just the smallest of nitpicks with Live but i hate the fact that the benches are so empty. Where are the fans and assistant coaches at?? Other than that looks very promising!

              They're not playing "tight" on Durant yet, as the game just tipped off. If you hit 2 or 3 shots, you'll see the Defense adjust.

              On ProAm, you'll see 2 or 3 dunks per game, not a ton unless you're just poor defensively.

              Also, the tip off game looks to be on Pro. You all will see what I mean upon demo release.

                I agree, I mentioned it often. And as petty as it sounds, I want to see kids in the stands too, in both games. But the bench stands out big time to me.

                      I liked the OKC video. Nice play for an easy score (I thought Westbrook was supposed to be the scorer, but I guess it created more options for others to score). Passing isn't great, but hopefully that doesn't mess things up too much.

                      I still don't understand why they don't release longer gameplay videos.

                        in the brooklyn video....why is the sound of them catching each pass so loud? I was trying to figure out what that noise was for a good 30 seconds
                        Both jump balls looked odd to me

                        Durant jumper looked good going thru the rim for sure

                          Agreed. I was completely off of the fence. But that Pro Am video lured me in. That camera angle is mean. And the chatter...I have to give props.

                          I'm starting to think 2K for my franchise/dynasty, Live for my multiplayer/online.

                            Wait til you play with the camera angle. I didn't know how it'd work, bringing a Live 95 style camera into todays technology, but once you have it on your screen, and are able to see the entire floor, and spacing, it's phenomenal.

                              Never noticed until you guys mentioned it. Just went on youtube to check out some live Thunder home games and there should be front row seats for fans. Man, each team's coach look so lonely on the bench without their assistants. Never realized, now can't "un-realize".

                              WTF, also consider bringing this up if possible in one of your sessions ... cosmetic but it'll improved the over look and feel to the crowd. There needs to be fans eating and drinking, leaving their seats for the concessions, returning with food and drinks in hand. That would be a nice little touch to both games.

                                I'm not that impressed on the chosen clip. I wish they would have upped the difficulty and showed some solid rotations, and having to break the defense down.

                                There's nothing more fun in this game than breaking your defender down, having the help d rotate over, kick it to the open man, to have another defender rotate (see where I'm going?) and eventually have a crazy mismatch. I love taking advantage of the mismatches.
