NBA Live 10 Patch #2 Available For 360 & PS3, Post Impressions Here

[dave374]

Only two differences I've seen so far:
CPU drives to the lane more on O.
None of those stupid circus 3pt shots from the CPU for no reason.

Mind you, this was only one game.

Its your own fault and if you want it to stop, quit playing randoms, because they screw the games up making fixes for that. That said how are the contact animations affecting the gameplay? Are teams running correct offenses? Do players still do crap like big men doing step backs and the dreaded Raptor fadeaway Does the CPU still score in cheap ways, still throw up hooks off rebounds over the back of their heads without looking very soft like? Fouls are they evened up more?

the cpu still scores off of rebs BUT i think they weakened the cpu off reb skill in 5 games i have a 2-1 edge on them, what i did notice and maybe its a placibo effect is that animations trigger alot more in the paint so instead of it being a facial dunk you get some contact BUT ITS NOWHERE CLOSE TO REALISM OF THE NBA.

bigs do less nonsense but their animation package is so limited that have no other choice, it seems they are not athletic enough for example at artest was backing down jefferson they battled then artest did a spin off and drove in, the bigs cant do this consistently or at all( i have seen it dont but not enough) they battle for 2 secsond then either pass or fadeaway

but overall non shooting bigs are taking less jumpers thats one of the biggest changes i like

This game needs a boatload of animations next year and that shouldnt even be an option.

Not enough scenarios that can happen and thats probably why people feel its scripted in one of many ways.

after 10 games i feel satisfied with the package that is live 10, the low points for this game still remain after this patch, such as animation lacking, and bad shots at times from role players but i can run a franchise for maybe 3 seasons now with out editing or alot of editing....

if they start live 11 from where this game is today, they may be on the right track, this game does what it does right now very well, it just needs more depth other than bugs nothing should be subtracted.

where are the hotspots from 09 !!! why subtract things!!!!!!

if every team played like the knicks, live would be perfect

I can agreee with this. I don't necessarily feel the "scripted" deal but I REALLY hope EA goes HARD with a TON of new animations, taking into account the different scenarios that happen on the court IRL.
I think studying and mimicking the game of NBA b-ball more closely, adding a buttload of new animations, and advancing the AI should be top and ONLY priorities with Live 11. NO NEW FEATURES, PERIOD!!! Focusing on new features takes away from completely fixing core gameplay but, unfortunately, it's about big business and drawing in new consumers, as well, with new features.
I also hope they can find a way to get at the legacy issues such as steal/rebound buttons being unresponsive at times, being forced out of bounds by the CPU without fouls being called (i can understand sometimes just going out of bounds on your own but not all the time), block animations not being contextual to the ball and players, and "under arm blocks" and such, among other things.
Otherwise, I still love this game and is my only b-ball game of choice, this year.

The big question is ... will this stop the guys that use a scoring PG to run around and launch off balance 3's that go in?
