Really? You're not going to get passing much quicker than that in real life.

I think the passing in Live is very responsive and most animations allow quick movement.

It's the lack of controllable bounce and lobs that hurt it (as another member here mentioned, that control was in 14...).

There's faster passing than that in the game itself tbh, I just don't know how to do it consistently....probably not the best example I could've posted but shows that long draw before releasing. For example, Look at how fast the ball travels when you do a jump pass...that's how all passes a lot the perimeter should be IMO

It's a bit worse in motion where it can be a full second and half before making the pass....I feel like open opportunities are missed b/c of it

Is that happening with good or bad passers? ....or both? I tend to stay vanilla with regards to passing with certain players.(76ers).

One of the things I've noticed is that the battles for the loose ball are happening more often, like sliding on the floor/diving for loose balls, and multiple rebounds and put back attempts /misses for CPU (with good defensive position) and user.

Seems like it happens across the board...I can post a better example when I get home..

I mean I actually had a pretty good game this morning, and like I said the spacing was nice, especially after pick and rolls...the passing just felt so slow it was bothersome...I feel like I missed out on a lot of cool hockey assist moment because by the time it got to the man he wasn't open anymore.

I'm just doing a quick press of the X button...is there a better way to go about it?

I agree on the loose balls, brings some unpredictability to the game I felt was lacking before.

They have touch passing. Just press X/A while ball is in air. It's actually pretty functional

Operationsports team,
Can you please ask the NBA Live developers if there will be a fix for the arena sounds glitch that effects all the arenas for example, sometimes the arena music plays and it doesn't play at all for the Lakers, Knicks, and Magic are just to name a few where you hear little to no arena music in the background at all. There are no defense chants, boos etc for hardly any of the arenas. Can you please ask the developers if this will be fixed in a future patch? Thanks if you look at this topic.

Yeah, I was testing it out a bit yesterday... I guess its just not going to be as 'snappy' as I would like....I'm assuming its designed that way to keep everything under control....similar to not being able to swat on command....It's cool though, just annoying.

After I read all the comments about the updated game I decided to play the demo of 1.05 and I was impressed. I played a lot of 2k16 and I haven't had that much fun. Had a nailbiter in the first game and won it 103:99 on the road in Chicago with the Cavs. I had such so much fun. I'm almost 30 now and I played a lot of live back in the days, so I want this game to succeed. 2k gets a little old and I have to be honest, it is too realistic. I'm working almost 10 hours a day, have my own little family and in my spare time I want to have fun and don't want to set up hedge options so that I can survive on defense against teams like the 76ers. Live 16 is a lot of fun now so I purchased it again in the PSN store. It is really enjoyable and it understands itself as a GAME and not as the reality. I hope that EA will develop the game from this point on and will make it even better. Post game and animations are still an issue but the overall fun is so great! Looking forward to the next patch AND of course Live 17!

I agree completely. I have fun when I pop in Live. I enjoy the gameplay and feel. With the other game I get bored with it after 2 weeks every year.
