Re: NBA Live 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

The cpu defense has reverted to playing a bit loose again since yesterday ( able to successfully use the quick first step move to get around my defender and attack the basket). To be clear this issue is more evident with speedy players in the 90's range. Even though the games are lively, I am witnessing more up and down games that result in higher scores and fg% s. If one is able to beat a first line defender off the dribble with such a move, I would at least like to see the help defenders react quicker to clog and protect the lane/basket. Also still seeing low 3pt rating bigs like Noel and Okafor taking 3pt shots during games. My observations on Superstar level. The game is very fluid otherwise though which is always nice to see.

Your opinions go back and forth a lot. It has almost nothing to do with patches or updates.

It is Synergy blending with the game AI and sliders. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I guess the positive is that no two games are the same and there is always potential for a team having a horrible night, or going on amazing runs, stars to go for 50 or role players breaking out.

3 months since release, I'm really enjoying the game. Lots (lots!) to improve on but damn the game is fun to play.

That is absolutely my point. If you have followed my posts I have referenced this ( your premise) several times. The objective for posting my findings is to mainly assist the devs in addressing Synergy as needed ( If they read the board) and to assist community members in some capacity. Would like to ultimately see more consistency with the Synergy updates and tweaks. I would be remiss if I didn't say that the consistency has improved especially within the last 2 weeks and we are witnessing more player tendency accuracy as a result of this. In sum, Synergy is working way more often than not at this juncture!

Honestly, the game has been responding extremely well to user input and is very engaging at present!

It's good to see Synergy finally play a role in how the game plays, they finally figured it out. This simply hasn't been the case the last 2 years despite belief....good ****

They just need to clean up some things like bigs attacking form the 3 point line (his is where editing could help)....but overall it's a huge step forward for the series...

Just got the game. I'm trying to do the big moments. I keep hitting game winners at the buzzer..but the challenge isn't becoming completed. Any ideas why?

In addition to this, these same bigs are executing eurostep type nimble moves (not saying the frequency is high but concerning nonetheless) on their way to the basket from the 3pt line or other spots on the court. I wouldn't expect Greg Monroe to be able to pull of such a move but I just witnessed this in a game played earlier. I am also seeing bigs like Noel and Okafor hoist 3pt shots. Mind you, I am playing the game on Superstar difficulty, however these occurences should be addressed. I continue to be impressed with the overall feel and direction of this game!

Sorry for little OT guys. So, has anybody succesfully unlocked "We Are LIVE" achievement on Xbox One??
I tried to unlock it when Big Moments challenges got finally updated, but nothing.
