NBA Live 15 and First In-Game Update Available Today, Post Your Impressions

[WTF]

http://www.twitch.tv/wtf_os/b/583251671

This is the game I played last night against the Clippers. Ignore the 2 times I accidentally press Alleyoop from full court. I was in the midst of pressing circle to double team in traffic, didn't realize I had the ball I'm uploading the youtube as we speak as well. I just re-watched the first and part of the second quarter, and not a post play was called for DeAndre. Blake shot some fadeaways from the post. I'd rather them have been face up and shoot type of shots. I think once Synergy updates based on their play this year, we'll see some even better results.

I personally am finding 2K hard to play due to the rebounding issues, but also due to the fact I am playing FIFA 15 a lot. After you experience the physics in that game, it is hard to play an 'animations' based game as they don't feel organic at all / feel likes I am going through a set of pre set animations. So, even though LIVE is not even close to FIFA's level, its had a big impact on my upcoming purchase.

Man, I just have to ask: what 2k forum are you visiting where issues are being ignored? I'd like to go there for a break from the madness once in a while, seriously lol...I honestly only see that kind of stuff here, where some of the harshest 2k critics are mum on Lives issues....

I really hope the LIVE team can reach 'FIFA level' one day as it is clearly light years ahead of anything we have for basketball at the moment in terms of physics and being organic.

The physics aspect is what keeps me coming back. I was going to post something regarding physics. I've been trying to go back to Ncaa football 14. It has the infinity engine., which is a early physics engine. Needless to say I can't really enjoy it, after playing Madden 15 for the last few months. I'm very big on the physics movement, and I truly believe all sports games should be physics based. I think Live is a solid game and I just can't play sports games that don't have physics. I see a lot of guys here trying to justify their purchase of Live. You don't have to guys. It's your money, do what you like. Screw what other people think!!

A Tim Duncan 19' jumper. I don't like the back to the basket pivot he did real quick, but did like the fact that he shot from here.

I don't have time to sift through my hundreds of videos, but as 24th will tell you, I've got the good copy of Live

You know, I'm not a big basketball fan when it comes to watching it on TV, I do enjoy playing it, and enjoy However with the 6 hour free trial from EA Access... I thought to myself what the heck, I'll check it out. I was impressed. Visually I think the game is fantastic. I had a bunch of fun playing it too. Although the controls were a bit too advanced for me to just pick up and play like I wanted to, it led me to struggle a bit, but once I settled in I had fun. Again, I'm not a hardcore basketball guy, and I only played a game and a half, but I enjoyed it. I thought it was fun, it looked great, the presentation was nice, the commentary was good, once I got a hang of some of the basic controls, I had a good time with it.
