They do playtests now and then at EA Tiburon and they were doing a lot of them in January for the game but once it officially got delayed, they've stopped.

Just imagine if NBA Live devs spent this years dev cycle to focus on the gameplay and the gameplay solely including tweaking animations. That right there is what they need to focus on not the features but the gameplay making it as ultra realistic as possible. Put all the resources and manpower for 1yr behind gameplay and animations that's the key.

this launch will be the end of Live, (no really) for good or it will bring back the franchise to the glory. They've had plenty of time to make this game good. And they have to launch it before 2K's game if they are confident in its greatness. Even if it's good, if they launch it AFTER 2k is released, they will not have a chance. Regardless of how good it is.

It's truly do or die now. This is it EA. Show us what you got. One last time.

NBA Live needs to go back to NBA Live 15 player movement animations because they've regressed on NBA Live 16.

They also need to reintroduce ball tangibility they had in NBA Live 14 and 15. In NBA Live 16 it was removed the ball was yo yo driven smh in NBA Live 16 another regression.

*sigh* I can't even remember the last time I was in this forum. Has to have been over a year ago and here we are. It feels like Groundhog Day. Same old same old out of Live. I guess we're fortunate that this won't be the death of Live and neither will it not dropping in the fall either. Cause if there's any certainties in life, it's Death, Taxes and NBA Live delaying/cancelling a release only to have a specific group of fans okaying it as a giving more time for improvements letting EA know they can keep pulling this mess. It's an inevitable cycle of Charlie Brown thinking he's going to kick that damn football.

Gameplay, animations and features will be the most important things they must improve on. All those ultimate team extra stuff should be worked on after they tackle those three things first. I just don't see how they can win over customers with ultimate teams without fixing those big three first. I understand Ultimate team is all about generating revenue but if they put most of the emphasis on that before gameplay and animations it wouldn't make sense. The reason I say that is because why would you want to take ppl's money but you don't deliver on the core gameplay. It just wouldn't work. You ever hear the saying if you build it they will come? Well I can assure you ultimate teams isn't the stadium, its more like the concessions or cracker jacks.
