NBA Live 10 Q&A: Round Two

Check out our NBA Live 10 Q&A: Round Two.

Quote:
Operation Sports: "Playbook questions: Can a developer confirm the total number of plays available in the game (and/or note that it might change via DNA updates)? Steve mentioned in the Operation Sports preview that 392 players were available to the Lakers in the demo, but is that cumulative? Including variations? What is the average number of team-specific plays available? Can we assign the Bulls playbook to the Spurs if we wanted to?"

Mike Wang: "There are over 500 total selectable plays in this year’s Live, and most of the plays have branching options within the basic sets. There are around eight team-specific sets for each team, with several play options within those sets. And yes, you can mix and match plays from one team to another. The best thing about this year’s plays, however, is that they’re TRULY authentic. In the past, we derived our plays from watching games or looking up stuff on the web. For Live 10, we partnered with actual NBA coaches and scouts to get REAL plays. I can’t stress enough how unprecedented this is. When I first laid my eyes on the playbooks when they were sent to the office, my jaw dropped. Really amazing stuff."

Platform: PS3 / PSP / Xbox 360

I'm satisfied. I'm glad they'll be patching the J.R. Celebration animation. Demo Sept. 10th people. Can't wait.

Can't wait for this game this year, Mike Wang is a real genius in virtual basketball knowledge!!!

P.S. I love this:

"We integrated NCAA’s post game into Live 10 and refreshed the animations to be more NBA-specific. Functionally, it’s very similar to NCAA though. You can do the following: pump fake and go left/right, up and under layup, up and under jumper, Spin move left/right then branch to layup or dunk, dropstep left/right then branch to layup or dunk, post jumper, Post fadeaway and various hook shots."
