Re: NBA Live 16 Gameplay Videos
My Impressions
The Pro-am courts are nice, i like the realism there, nice addition EA.
When it comes to gameplay, i still don't like the stiff look, and there is a good amount of warping and sliding going on. Before you guys jump down my throat i said this on the other games videos too. I know its very hard for a game to have no sliding or warping im ok with some if it, as long as it doesn't cause you to feel like your being cheated.
The blazers vs OKC clip i think its Ibaka who sets a down-screen for Durant to come up to the 45. The PLAYER guarding Durant...maybe Aminu, fights the screen but then warps a good 4 FEET around the players in a way to get into a better position. I would have much rather seen him have to fight again to get back into that position.
As for the AI - Westbrook comes off the pick and passes to Durant. The player guarding Durant is watching Westbrook as he comes off the screen, as Russell passes, the defender reacts AFTER the pass. He sees the pass coming but leaves Durant anyway. At regular speed you still notice but at .25 speed it looks like a WTF moment. Westbrook also doesn't cut into the paint or show enough that hes going to attack for Aminu to leave Durant, but i don't know what the defensive settings are in place for Aminu to react like that.
I don't have a problem with the tip-off animation. I don't feel like im being cheated there.
Game is getting better no doubt, this is a tiny sample I KNOW I KNOW. I Just got into the habit now of watching gameplay vids in slow speed to see things in regular speed that gave me a pause.
I plan on getting this game when its discounted too, by Christmas time ill know if i want it or not.
