I totaly agree dynasty is not that important right now they need to focus on their priorities gameplay,graphics,physics and presentation, most likely they gonna focus on that next year after they get the important stuff out of the way

I hope most don't agree! Without a decent dynasty mode it's just a game more suited to versus. Who would want to play user vs. cpu exhibition games repeatedly or single seasons but never get anywhere. To me of the things you listed graphics is the one that can wait.

to be completely honest, dynasty mode is something that i play every single year. That mode is very important and i hope that it would have been made over into something that is more realistic and fun

Me. I don't even care about dinasty mode. I don't have time to complete even a single year, because I don't like to simulate games. And I like to play with most of the teams, so I end up just playing exhibition games...

Obviously, I want all modes to be great, but it's not a big deal for me if this year they only improve gameplay and controls

Actually I've never completed a dynasty myself, LOL. It's because you can't shorten the season down to 20+ or 50+ games and I too hate siming. One of the improvements I'd like to see is to be able to adjust the number of games played. Still, to me exhibition is pointless unless I am playing another human and the appeal of a season to me is to take a bad team and build them up so single season doesn't work for that. What I have done is sim'd the first season of dynasty and played the second after make roster changes but the recent live's gameplay is so repetitive that I usually quit that too and go to a different team to get a new experience.

That's why I play exhibition games, lol

LOL, I thought about that when I typed that last post! Really I could stand about 20-30 games w/the same team and if the playoffs then post season broke that up I could continue. Another problem I have is I am not a true fan of any particular team I just like... love good basketball, that keeps me from sticking to one team just because I want to make them better than they are IRL, so with the repetitive gameplay I just can't bare a long season. Fix the number of games part and that's no longer an issue.

Thank you, that's exactly where I was coming from. I'm not suggesting that controls and physics aren't important; far from it. I just think that to be the best it can be, the game should be a well-rounded product and deliver on all fronts. Granted, I'm also a Dynasty geek so it tends to be one of the first things I think about but my concern was "Can this be addressed as well?" rather than "Can this be address instead"?

I'm definitely not unpleasable nor biased against EA's basketball offerings. I wouldn't be running an NBA Live/Elite fansite if I was.
