No NBA Player or Roster Editing in NBA Live 16 Confirmed

[MavsManiac4Life]

Been reading this thread since it went up, I guess I'll put my two cents in. The game will still sell without a doubt, a majority just want to "swag out" their players as shown earlier. But for the usual person that goes on OS? Roster editing being a make or break makes complete sense. That is pretty much this forum's bread and butter, the great rosters put out for 2K, Madden, MLB etc. I only play with custom rosters in all of my sports games, only do little test runs until the first custom roster drops.

I definitely wouldn't pay full price for Live, even if the gameplay is good, but that's just me, my sports gaming lives off the roster files made here. Don't think you can look at somebody on here crazy for thinking that way. OS isn't for the average sports gamer lol

Relying on Synergy means that if a player starts the season injured, we can't have that player in our dynasty mode until he comes back from injury.

It blowed last year and yes, it kills any sort of realism and immersion.

Editing ratings, gear, etc. should be standard in all sports games.

Online modes are cool but dynasty gets the shaft once again.

Customization is a big deal to people bro. EA fails to realize this over and over or IMO they just don't care. Although I do agree with your last statement...

How can they do worse and worse every year, is insanely shocking to me...sometimes I wonder if their job is to just finish the game regardless of people actually play it or not, they just need to make the game and they get their money, so that's why they take away the most basic stuffs in the game so they can get the game done and get off work early

To me, the agenda posting is coming from guys that feel people should buy the game despite a feature that they want and enjoy not being in the game. For what is it? The 3rd straight year.

Not a lot of people in here are saying they won't give the game a chance at all; that's what the demo is for. They're saying just not gonna spend their $45+ on a sports game that's lacking a pretty basic feature.

Depending on how well the demo plays I may or may not buy this game, but if I do, it will not be a day 1 or full price/new purchase because of the inability to edit rosters/players if I so choose.

ROSTER MANAGEMENT IS REALLY WHAT'S GOT ME AS A NO BUY ...CUSTOMIZATION IS GOOD AND ALSO IMPORTANT...... BUT I CAN DEAL WITHOUT THAT .......NOT BEING ABLE TO MAKE TRADES OUTSIDE OF DYNASTY MODE OR EDIT ROTATIONS AND MINUTES IS WHAT KILLS ME THAT SHOULD BE STANDARD IN ANY SPORTS GAME I SHOULD BE ABLE TO RE ORDER ROSTERS ADD PLAYERS THAT ARE MISSING WITHOUT HAVING TO WAIT FOR A DUMB UPDATE ...ON TOP OF THAT I SHOULD BE ABLE TO EDIT JERSEY # AND ACCESSORIES EA WE NEED ANSWERS !!!!!!!

I wanna see Live succeed but they keep doing things like this which hold them back against the other game

no roster editing
no online assocation

roster editing should automatically be in the game, we shouldnt have to ask for it.
