No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

05:21 PM - August 13, 2015 by iLLWiLL

EA Sports has confirmed on their official Facebook page that NBA Live 16 will not feature NBA player or roster editing. That means, no accessory changes, no player rating adjustments, no changing jersey numbers, etc...

Maybe it gets patched in later? Maybe not, but this is not a good sign.

This was a deal breaker for me last year, and a huge deal breaker this year. I will not buy the game. EA has yet to grasp how important customization is to us, or they just don't care. It shows in Madden and in Live. All my excitement for this game is gone, and once again EA has me in "wait till next year" mode, like always...

Exactly.

To go even further than that, sometimes you just want to make your own changes, regardless of what happens irl. What if I wanted to remove Kobe's arm sleeve? Put back LeBron's headband? Change my rookies' shoes? I can't do any of those.

I traded Melo to the Nuggets last year and he still had Knicks-colorway shoes. I couldn't change it.

I'm hoping that they could at least patch in roster and player editing inside Dynasty (and Rising Star) mode this year.

At the very least they should add player editing to dynasty mode imo.

Keep the feedback going guys, i am tweeting this to the NBA Live guys. At least they can see how much we want it back.

EDIT: If you are on Twitter, please take the time to RT my tweets to them. My twitter handle is listed below.

The fact that they hired a renowned tattoo artist just for created players, but we can't simply change an accessorie or attribute on the actual players shows their priorities.

Why has the NBA side of the game taken a back seat to the online created player stuff? I mean they have talked about the dribble hand off addition so much so far I am thinking is that the only gameplay eye candy we will get this year no mention of the low post game besides we are still working on it, that doesn't sound too promising, but we are supposed to be fine waiting another year just to possibly get the edit player feature back.

For me, it's not even worth trying. Again, those that do and enjoy I'm happy for them. It's just too big of a missing feature for me.

Don't have the link bro. A few guys on twitch were talking about it a few days ago, but they think ea is just trying to keep it a secret.

Apparently there's some hidden legend you can unlock in pro am n ppl think it will be mj.

Like I said, don't think pro am is the only big announcement because that will be a bit underwhelming. Think these guys got more heat just wait for the oops to show their hand.

Thought they had countless people working on this game? Roster editing is an old school feature. I'm very disappointed . The question is why not??? I will accept this if the gameplay is awesome. So it better be.

I sure hope that is true, because Live fans deserve more. I'm just not holding my breath for it.

Sorry wrong thread

# 231 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 08/16/15 11:40 PM

Honest Question . How many more sells do you guys think this feature would bring to NBA live ? Do you think it's worth EA leaders investing time and resources in right now ? Just wanna know some viewpoints

I would think it brings in at most 5,000 new buys. Like I said in my post in the petition, it's like editing draft classes in Madden. Most people will use it if there is a share feature tagged along to it but they probably won't use it on their own. And at where they are right now, I don't think it's worth it for at most 5,000 new buys. And I am being conservative with the 5,000 buys.

Cause I believe most of these people in here are highly overreacting using this as an excuse to say they not gonna play or purchase a game they never had any intentions of playing or purchasing in the first place. Agenda posting is real heavy on this board IMO.
