NBA Live 15: Is the Delay a Reason for Panic or Optimism? (Roundtable)

[ProfessaPackMan]

I'm sorry but blaming the community is nothing more than a cop out.

If you're going to blame the community, blame the part that would defend Live even if they announced that they wont be using actual NBA teams next year

As far as the delay, I don't think it's necessarily a reason to panic, but it worrisome based of the series history.

I still look forward to checking it out myself.

No need for panic yet. I seriously doubt EA would cancel the game unless it's worse than Live 14, which it won't. EA has been delaying a couple of big franchises lately that have competition in the genre. Madden, NHL, and FIFA are lone wolves and don't need to be pushed back because they only compete with themselves where as both Dragon Age and Battlefield were both delayed by a couple of weeks in Dragon Age's case and to a couple of months to Battlefield's case. There is no need to call for the death of any game, if you don't like, simply don't buy it. I never understood the need to bash a game and try to get the game cancelled. Try out the game and if you don't like it, don't buy it. No need for pitchforks and complaints if you were never going to give the game a fair shot in the first place. /End Rant.

Nahh. I think the game is basically ready, just want to tweak the kinks. It's not a bad sign.

[GisherJohn24]

I would actually support a delay till late November if they wanted to make it even better.

nba live kickstarter campaign! i hope this game does not get canceled. ea must have gave them a very small budget for this project. if it does not get off the ground they should consider crowd funding.

You really believe that? Guess you guys like to ignore the negative things I have said about live.

Who wastes $60 on a game just to not give it a fair chance? I think most of us(talking about the regulars that have been here for a while)have always intended on giving Live a chance just like we have the last few years.
