Hello Everyone,

In our communication to all of you before the launch of NBA LIVE 09, we said that NBA LIVE 365 would be “Made Fresh Daily.” This will certainly be the case, but I wanted to update everyone on our current status, because there are lots of questions being asked around the community concerning NBA LIVE 365 and when it will officially “turn on.” Last night the NBA season officially kicked off. Six teams played, and the NBA LIVE 365 information was received and is ready to be pushed in-game for all of you to enjoy, but in order to accurately reflect what’s happening in the real NBA in NBA LIVE 09, we need the data from EVERY NBA team once they finish their first game.

The last NBA teams will play their first game on Thursday (10/30). To accurately reflect what happened for every team’s first game in NBA LIVE 09, we’re going to turn on NBA LIVE 365 on Friday morning (10/31) for everyone that input a code on the insert inside the NBA LIVE 09 packaging. Once every team plays their first game, you will see your daily changes as promised.

We’re terribly sorry for the inconvenience, but we really wanted to update the community on what our current status is. We thank you for your overwhelming excitement and continued interest for this feature, and we promise that you’ll be pleased with what’s reflected in-game based on the real NBA season. It’ll be a long, enjoyable journey for all of us to enjoy!

Thanks,

The NBA LIVE 09 Team

I would say it works about 70% of the time and the games usually take 1-5 days to be on there. I don't know if they have said why, very possible though considering steph and some others are on here answering our inquires a lot.

Steph, Base......

The rewind games have not been working for the past couple days now. Are you guys aware of this ?? Nothing loads up ??

They are aware of the situation. The response I got was
"As for the Rewind games, I'm checking into that now. Thanks for bringing it up Maddog!" That was 12/5/08.

Hopefully they'll get this working very soon.

The following was originally posted 12/5/08 under Ask the devs a question thread.

"As of this posting, out of the last 10 Bulls games, only 3 are in Rewind. (12/2/08, 11/30/08 and 11/21/08).

Games that are missing are 12/3/08 (Bucks 97, Bulls 90); 11/26/08 (Spurs 98, Bulls 88); 11/24/08 (Bulls 101, Jazz 100); 11/23/08 (Nuggets 114, Bulls 101); 11/19/08 (Trailblazers 116, Bulls 74); 11/18/08 (Lakers 116, Bulls 109); 11/15/08 (Bulls 104, Pacers 91)

That's only 30% of the last 10 games available????? And this is just for 1 team????

I can accept the rewind games on any given day backlogged by say 2 or 3 games. However, in my example, what happened to the Bulls games between 11/21/08-11/26/08??

Dev, will these games that are missing from Rewind ever be available for us to play or are they lost forever because your servers can't handle the volume?"

With no 365 or no gold/silver xbl account you only have last season's playoff games. With 365 and if you are connected, you get everything.

Nope I have gold and there are very few rewind games but it doesn't bother that much. I really just wanted to play the Celtics lakers game.

If you have gold, and you have the 365 code you should be getting all the games in Rewind. You need to be connected and on the EA servers when you go to the play now screen.

I am sorry that I am asking this, I am sure it is posted somewhere. Do you need a gold membership to use 365? I am thinking about purchasing the game, just would like to know first. I have 2k9, getting bored with it. Always purchased live back in the day over any other game. Hearing some good things about the game and I am tired of adjusting sliders to get 2k9 right for me.

Thanks..

Silver is ok too.

Why does Nenad Krstic look like an Ethiopian with alopecia?

lol!

It's because he wasn't in the league originally, and isn't in our game. However Synergy has added him to the Thunder, so our game automatically made a generic Nenad. We will make him look better in the next manual update.

Makes sense. Appreciate the quick response.

How often do you all do manual updates? I didn't even realize manual updates still came out. I assume they are included as part of the 365 download?

About once a week. They include accessory updates, adding players, and ratings changes. They download as part of 365.

Real quick, Amir Johnson of the Pistons has not had Braids in his hair for over a year, can you change? ( Dont worry 2k has him the same way) and Jason Maxiell does not look like his digital counterpart.
