NBA Live 16 Gameplay Videos

That durant jumper!

Where's the app tho!

CPU Defense = absolutely terrible. Who on earth leaves Durant WIDE open to clog the paint?


Same stuff as last year, where the "spacing" everyone talks about was often just dumb CPU AI.


I am strictly USER v CPU...really hoping this is not a sign of the new "help D".

Re: NBA Live 16 Gameplay Videos

AI still needs work. What was number 8 doing on defense in the last clip? On a simple pick and roll play, he just leaves Kevin Durant wide open one pass away. LOL.

.

This happened non stop in LIVE 15.

looks good. there is something not right with the way the arms and hands are..they tend to look like too stiff sometimes. like always in an L with the hands pointed. like old 64 graphics on perfect dark. however, it does look really good otherwise. like the playcalling system with multiple direction indicators.

If it makes you feel any better, I went into triple overtime against the CPU on All-Star, and was handed my rear end on a silver platter against the CPU on Superstar. They'll play much better defense, and the rotations are on point, but not psychic.

I think you'll appreciate what they've done this year once you play the demo.

Hoping so bro...and will get the demo the moment it drops.


That help D is worrisome though. Last year they seemed to simply 'help' no matter who was on the perimeter. I don't mind them helping if Rondo is all I have on the perimeter and they leave him open.


But last year (and in that video today from 16) they left open Durant etc. I used the Hawks a lot in 15 and I'd penetrate with their PGs and the cpu would collapse and just leave Korver wide open all day.


Will be interesting to see if they have a 'help D' slider this year, now that sliders are in.

[WTF]

Re: NBA Live 16 Gameplay Videos (Pro-AM/Tip Off)

Yeah, once the defense starts adjusting to your play, it gets to be a challenge. You'll have to constantly change things up, going with different attacks. Sliders make a difference, and they're functional.

Looks good. I am glad we have two basketball games. This is how the 90s was with multiple sports titles. I hate the rhetoric from either side that downs either game. It is possible to buy and play both and that is what I will do.

I really want Live to comeback and compete. I want this to be good. It looks good. 2k seemed to get lazy, but with all the upgrades coming 2k is going for the jugular this time. I think Live is probably a year away from really being competitive.

I do like how smooth it looks when running a play with the multiple options and how quick it transitions. Movement still looks stiff to me though tbh.

Here's the thing with this game, it doesn't look bad but it looks like something that shouldn't cost more than 30 bucks.

It has this really arcady look to it, the player movement, player faces & visual displays for calling plays is really well done but everything else is lacking. Still have gumby bodies & looks borderline cell shading

Re: NBA Live 16 Gameplay Videos

Happy, to finally get gameplay... With that being said, I think I have seen enough to know that this won't be a day one pickup unless the demo blows me away.... Will purchase the game, but only at discounted price, what I have seen for me isn't enough to warrant a $60 dollar purchase.

[TreyIM2]

The movement looked pretty good for the most part to me except when yellow tank dude was dribbling in place before going to the hoop. Noticed that Live stiffness there but, still, the movement of the players looked pretty good for the most part.

I see a few people who say they wish that they did it in real game format, but I'm fine with how it is. When me and my friends play pick up games we don't have someone running the clock for us lol... We go to like 11 or 16 and that's game. I wouldn't mind then having an OPTION of NBA set up or game to 21 that would be cool

You saw 1 possession and you are freaking out. That wasn't even a minute. Chill out and play the exhibition mode on all difficulty levels and then reevaluate what you just typed.

Also, when you double team or the offense executes a play well, they will have a man open. Just ask Kyle Korver, Klay Thompson or any other snipers for that matter.
