I can't find it but from what a few youtubers said they were told by the people at EA, they claimed that there's an all new dribbling system that you have all the control in. To counter that ,the defense has this timing system where if you time your moves right (I think they're alluding to the angles), you can negate the offenses dribbling moves

They also said they reworked the post and that there much more moves. Emphasis on size and strength as a factor in the post

Something to do with signature moves for players. That's probably for the bigger names. If most or all of the big names have signature moves that would be cool

That's about all I can remember them claiming

Thanks for the info. Im pretty keen to see more of this game, and I havent said that about Live in over 10 years.

Looks good to me. I look forward to playing it early through EA access.

Those are graphics engines. Frostbite engine comes from the battlefield series. Ignite was/is the engine certain games were using to start this generation.

First of the big EA sports games to crossover to Frostbite was FIFA 17. Madden 18 will be using it for the first time this year.

It really only effects the visuals. Gameplay of FIFA 17 for example was not much different from FIFA 16 which was on ignite engine.

Honestly if they put work into the defense and post game im sold. Spacing is the biggest pro with nba live. Bring some type of Franchise mode and im good to go.

Online play actually works and I had a blast playing online. Something I havent touched since Micheal Redd was in the league.

I hope it's a good game this time. The last Live wasn't terrible but it just needed polish. Hopefully this year it's gets the polish.

See, I'm a old school sports gamer back from a time when their were multiple sports titles and non of the flaming nonsense.

I looked forward to all the titles if they were good. I hate the toxicity of "2k sucks " or "Live sucks". Cut that out. You want both games to be good and do well. I have no problem buying both.

Ok if it's just cosmetics I don't mind. With or without it.

Especially when the same people been ragging on Live since 09 every year about animations when a live clip is released. After 10 years maybe you just don't prefer it and are biased against live.
