I've never checked to see whether or not fatigue drops based on the number of dribbles or whatever, but I'd have to check later on to be completely sure. It seems like something 2k would implement first, though.

Re: NBA Live 09 - Czarisode 2

czar,
that was pure basketball goodness. don't scrap the rest of your vids man, i need all the help i can get. i was one of those who thought the qsab moves were unresponsive, but its nice to know that EA has added some depth and a learning curve to their games. it makes the simulation experience more true to life. now if they can make the application of these moves more realistic, things will be good. again, quality work, and i look forward to the next. btw, the first czarisode was deep as well. LIVE is going to be a solid sim this year.

Great videos! EA ought to pay you for your efforts because your videos certainly make it harder for me to settle on a choice of a basketball game this year.

After several hours with the demo, I simply find the gameplay more FUN than anything from the 2k series, lately, even though 2k does so many things right. It's EA's new and intuitive play calling system, along with their floor spacing that really drives it home for me. But now 2k had to go and show screenshots of what looks to be an amazing Association mode. Arrrgghhh! I can't make up my mind. If only 2k's isomotion wasn't a broken system and they improved the shot stick (I still can't shoot J's with it) then I wouldn't be as inclined to give EA my money. What's everybody else going with this year?

And no, I'm not one of those people who boasts "I'm buying BOTH!!!!" because games are expensive and there are so many good ones coming out this season.

Re: NBA Live 09 - Czarisode 2

Haha Czar, you are something else man. Great Job as always. I didn't realize the depth of Lives dribbling system and you didn't even cover the explosion animations/Quickstrike A's out of those standstill dribbles.

Great stuff...

Just wanted to say great job Czar. I hadnt even noticed some of the subtleties that you pointed out. Your first video about playcalling had me playing the demo nonstop trying out the variations. Keep 'em coming. These training videos should be in the game because they are much better than the usual EA ones.

Re: NBA Live 09 - Czarisode 2

Man, you make the games look better with your videos. Last year I saw a couple of your vids from 2k8, and they made me love the game even more.

This year, the same thing is happening. I like Live this year too, but with these videos, i'm liking it even more. They help to understand the game better, even if I already know what you're showing.

Amazing vids, and man, seriously, even better music.

Re: NBA Live 09 - Czarisode 2

Awesome video. That video tutorial just opened up a whole new world for me on this Live demo. EA should pay you for that and use it on their website. It really shows off the depth and realism that they were able to accomplish with dribbling this year. Could certainly use that as a major selling point to sim players. Give us more man!
