I don't use the ESPN camera because it is arena-specific, and some of the views are really poor on certain courts.

I just leave it on the EA Sports camera, though even that view has some issues with the bottom of the screen getting blocked by fans and by the score overlay.

Live really should have implemented the custom camera feature from FIFA or EA NHL.

Also anyone know what the action camera does?

Turning on the "action" option will make the camera move around dynamically to follow the ball. I don't like it very much, so I just leave it off.

No, the ESPN cam is the default camera.

I'm impressed with the foundation EA laid this year for future iterations of NBA Live. There are a lot of positive things I'm seeing and I'm happy I read the impressions section because I can validate now a lot of the things you guys were seeing.

I purchased the game also because I was impressed by O'brien's open letter and his commitment to improving the game and the first couple patches did just that.

Now on to what I like about Live. The court spacing, court size, rebounding, difficulty, and strategies are all first rate. I've never seen court spacing this good in a basketball game. In the NBA if you get past your defender you have options. If lebron gets in the lane, there are so many possibilities given his athleticism, skill, and vision and this game really mimics that well. If you beat your defender in this game, the defense will rotate, and all you have to do is find the open. It's a very nice feeling to break down the defense in this game and it's not a good feeling when you do and can't hit the open shot.

Rebounding has a really good feel to it. If you have your man boxed out, and see where the rebound is going, more often than not you will grab that board. It's not iffy anymore and doesn't seem like a dice roll in whether you get the rebound or not. Nothing more frustrating than playing great defense, box your man out, get a good bounce off the rim and somehow the ball goes to the offense. This game really gets it right.

Excited to start a fantasy draft dynasty. Should I build around Paul George or Kevin Durant ha?

Well there goes my game atmosphere again. Really making me frustrated because I like the playoff atmosphere option.

You can view my thread I created about it but basically my game atmosphere option has completely disappeared. It reappeared yesterday but then as my last post says, it disappeared again today.
