NBA Live 365 Status Update

07:49 PM - October 29, 2008 by stephensonmc

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

No, we can't update current NBA player faces/hair via 365.

Melo is subbing in for the Nuggets on the 365 update as of last night.. He is out for like 3-4 weeks if im not mistaken...

The reason why that is probably happening is because there are more players that are on the IR list for the Nuggets and Melo is the most recent so he's not in the 3 spots reserved for IR.

I'll check and see what we can do, but since we took the IR lock off of players, this may happen in rare cases so you can still play with them if you want in dynasty.

Make sense? Anyway, I'll take a look.

Just a few problems with regard to a player named Jason Smith on the Australian National Team Squad of NBA Live 09 (xbox360).

1. His personal information e.g. His date of birth is completely wrong. It says he was born in 1950 which is not! (He was born on October 20th, 1974)
2. Although he is listed at 193cm in NBA Live 09 (this is a correct part) but his in-game character model is in a wrong size because when you play the game, he is actually bigger than a 7 footer (This is ridiculous. How the heck a 6ft 4inch guy can be bigger than 7ft) Please reduce the height of his in-game character.

I posted about this issue on the EA forum but apparently nobody gave a damn about it so maybe a guy from EA who's been around in this forum can fix the problem.

I have even provided you with a link to the website where the Australian Jason Smith's official personal information is available
http://www.nbl.com.au/default.aspx?s...profile&id=620

Please no more ignorance.

Thank you in advance

definitely happenign to me too and its taking away from my non dynasty experience... especially when other IR guys/ guys who dont play at all for that team are getting run during the game...especially sucks when monta ellis keeps getting subbed in (he has no DNA stats).

oh well i guess i just wont play against a team with hurt players...(which defeats the purpose...)

me personally id rather have the IR spot locked back again

Something about franchise guys not being able to play with currently injured players.

Should be changed back IMO... Most are going to wait for the final DNA to start a season/Franchise...

This wasn't the case a month ago man. All over the community there were complaints. Sorry guys, but the majority rules.

Yes, i remember the NY Knicks, only 8 players to be used, it is not normal, but it was the real.
I think that it would be better, if MELO(T-Mac,...) is injured; Melo must not to be able to play in the game.

# 475 thcchoi @ 01/15/09 05:53 AM

still no response. -sigh-

# 476 KG#5beantown @ 01/15/09 07:01 AM

Yeah I think it should be locked again...yesterday t-mac came off the bench and made 26...not funny...because he is injured at the moment...I think it would be better to play with the players that are playing in real...and if there are 8...than it's fine...it's a competition...

...I would like to have the injured players out of the ingame roster

# 477 GSW @ 01/15/09 12:05 PM

I think its kind of stupid when the whole point of Live 365 is to mimic that teams roster on that particular day/stretch of time.

Kinda pointless to have the IR spot at all when an Injured or non rotational player is being subbed in the game.

With all due respect, it doesnt make any sense whatsoever, it was fine the way ti was before, until people wanted to play a franchise, although it had been said Live 365 DOES NOT get carried over for franchise. So why do they get what they want when the feature wasn't even intended to work with franchise this year?

Double standard there

, and in trying to fix that you just created a problem for the people who don't play Franchise mode, OR who were waiting to play franchise mode after the season when the stats and DNA for the entire season has reached an apex.

so basically you fix "realism" for one and break it in the other... now basically I personally don't want to play against the Nuggets (or any other team with a hurt player) because that player is just going to be subbed in as well as players who dont even get burn on their team and who were using the other 2 IR spots..., might as well just remove the IR spot all together and start Boozer, T-Mac and Melo, Monta, Arenas, and the rest of them.

Do you think that next year you could put a user option in to lock or unlock the list?

I think the 365 not in franchise applies to the updates, but you start franchise with the current rosters. That was where the problem was.

like i said with all due respect to the people who made that decision... it just wasnt thought out very well.

because while its not a "big deal" that injured and non rotational players are playing... the same could be said for them not being available if you were to start a Association... all the Franchise guys had to do is wait for them to get healthy.
But while waiting they could at least enjoy playing quick games with made fresh daily rosters.

Both options arent fair to either party, but the option to keep it how it was is more reasonable because now guys who arent supposed to be playing are playing, and it defeats the whole purpose of Live 365. Rosters made fresh Daily.
