NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

[Cusefan]

Is anyone really upset by this? I just have a hard time believing there is anyone out there who loves this series and is really bummed out by the lack of news. The only person who could possibly like NBA live are video game hipsters who like because everyone else hates it. I can see them now with their stupid hats.

Calling this franchise a dumpster fire is unfair to dumpster fires. From now when I see flames shooting from a dumpster I will say "Oh look at that NBA live".

Forget gameplay details, we need to see Live moving. Not sure if you remember, but last year, before releasing the first trailer, EA released a teaser for that trailer, showing, if I remember correctly, Steve Nash dribbling while moving etc.. Some of us here spotted the bad movement already from that few second piece of trailer. It was pretty obvious already then.

As far as gameplay details, they have already said they had made 500 core gameplay improvements. That's all you need to know (which is basically...nothing). Live needs to show players move/behave like human beings before telling us "we improved X, Y, Z". This has not been shown, hopefully NOT because of obvious reasons.

I don't think that asking for players to move/behave like human beings is too much to ask for in 2014. Especially that they seem to be able to do it for other games (and if it's because different studios are making different games, then Live's studio is way behind the others, and EA isn't really concerned about that.).

Why don't they use the awesome nba live 10 engine and tweak that with next Gen graphics and be done with it?

I don't know. Some said Mike Wang had some rights on it or something, but I don't know. It seems by the info released, though, that they are trying to go back to some Live 10 elements.

[WTF]

Why don't you all wait and see what's in store for this year's version, as opposed to comparing it to last year?

I believe that those who are open to judging this game on its own merit, versus the recent history of the Live series, will be pleasantly surprised.

The development team is set, and they're a very talented group of guys.

[WTF]

Also, for what it's worth, they deserve this thread, because if you make marketing statements, be ready to stick to them.

However, the devs aren't the ones that make those promises. To call this group lazy, or untalented isn't appropriate or correct.

WTF, come on man, I know you must have seen some assets or played the game. Spill the beans man, haha!

I'm excited for the game though, give it a chance guys, this week should open the flood gates and we literally just got the first 2K trailer last week....
