Re: NBA Live 15 Twitter Chat with Executive Producer Sean O'Brien, No Sliders Confirm

Pro Evolution Soccer doesn't have sliders, and never has. It still plays a better game of soccer than FIFA and it's sliders. Even at it's low point of a few years ago PES played better than FIFA.

I for one welcome a game without sliders, but only if the devs can deliver. Truth is you can have all the sliders in the world and the game can still play like crap.

As for using sliders to "customize" the game, customize what? You can't customize the NBA in real life. You can't stop the game and say, okay now all you guys shooting threes you need to start making more of them. Nonsense.

In the end it's up to the devs, sliders or no sliders. If I were a dev the only reason I'd add sliders is to give some leeway for potential balance problems that might arise. Because it'd be a shame to ship out a game that was close to the real thing, only to have it undermined by something small, something that could be tweaked for the better with sliders. That's the only real argument for having sliders in a game.

This is the argument that everyone has been making for sliders. But either way, if I want to make every single three I take, I should be able to. Again, not everyone wants to play the same way, and sliders/roster edits make that an option.

Great point! I only want them to stop The points in the paint and adjust foul frequency. Seems as if fouls are being called this year from the lebront n stat line in the vid

And it's a flimsy arguement at best. Devs can still screw up a game, sliders or not. Considering the game isn't even out yet, how 'bout y'all stfu?

Now was that necessary?

He can't make a simple statement without you going off the deep end?

Consider this a warning
