That's not what 23 meant. He was referring to games people played, their roles in being heard, their attempt to help influence a series positively.

23 actually enjoyed Live 10. I still remember that. Like most of the level headed guys here, he will pick the best game. Publisher doesn't matter.

You CLEARLY didn't read his posts. The discussion between he and Pared had NOTHING to do specifically with the quality of Live or liking 2K. All they talked about was having an open line of communication to the devs and feeling as if they are being heard. And you come with this? Really? Did you just join to make an ignorant whine? Many of the guys on this thread are (at least former) Live fans. They want choice. They also want to not be ignored. That's it.

Let's just say there were some devs that didn't want any part of us being there and didn't consider taking ANY of the feedback we provided. Those who were there with me, know the couple I'm talking about, because I called them out.

Then there were those who were actually taking notes, giving us realistic answers and letting us know where they were headed. I talked with a few of them leading up until debacle that happened. A couple even made me aware of what was going on (the cancellation and ultimately the move to Tiburon) prior to it being made public.

It all starts at the top though, just unfortunate that EA is in this position. They have no one to blame, but themselves unfortunately. I want them to succeed. Not because I want them beat 2K or have a better game, just for the simple fact that competition is good and pushes everyone to strive for perfection.

You arent calling me out, but what im calling you out on is coming in here posting off topic and trolling.


You have yet to comment on the video, or anything that has to do with this game, but if you want to play this game go ahead

The next post you make needs to be on topic... this is your only warning

violate the TOS and its on you, but what we are not about to do is go on coming in threads with hurt feelings with no intention of even posting on topics
 
# 965 23 @ 08/29/12 07:14 PM
...and just so you know because I know you saw my last post

I wasn't suggesting you call anyone out. It was merely advice for you to just address the specific post you have a problem with instead of jumping in the middle and throwing generalizations out there

Im pretty sure you were probably too lazy to read through the thread before throwing out an accusation so you missed the substance of whatever you thought someone may or may not have been doing.

....but anyway if you have issues with me you we can take it to PM

No need to come in the thread posting off topic anymore

The worse execution of a game of basketball evar.
 
# 968 verbalhologram @ 08/30/12 05:32 AM
I know many of us seem to be on the same page that this was not a pre aplha build but just a very poorly developed game that at times actually looks worse than elite(which is hard to believe). What I cannot understand is EA knew they had messed up teribiliy last time and pulled the game which is nearly unheard of .In that space of time the competition put out two games and continued to raise the bar,how was EA not taking notes on things to implement ,how did they not realise that Live 10 was universally seen as a good building block by us the fans,and how after years have gone past are we back waiting for information with only a month remaining to confirm that they will again cancel the game.
EA I really cannot understand how you have let it get to this point

I think its only worth a $20 arcade game download if that video is indeed not an alpha build.

Definitely disappointed. The games looks ok but plays horrible. I really didn't expect this, plays amateurishly. I wasn't expecting flawless game play, but this is another level of horrible.

I'll most likely still want to try it, if it comes out.

What I don't do is go on their boards and demand videos, info and call peoples opinions garbage when I've never enjoyed the game in the first place.
And what makes you think others here aren't trying to do the same thing? We don't have anything to discuss except a leaked video. That's embarrassing. Basketball video game fans deserve more, just like football video games deserve competition.

But... but... they were a member of the Canadian basketball team!



I had to endure that for three years.

...and I agree 100% on your post. Im just saying, if you want to discuss solutions, we can do that...but when you're breeding ill will, its on you

and the people defending that garbage are the ones making it worse than what it is initially
Here's the thing - I don't know anyone from Tiburon well enough to write them off before any sort of interaction.

Maybe I'm just a sucker... but I am willing to work with anyone that wants to worked with. Again, we get a better game as a result.

LOL Pared. I didn't name names, but you just singled someone out. Classic.

This looks AWFUL.
The gameplay looks like something from the ps2 generation. Terrible A.I gameplay, Awful animations. WOW. I was hoping Live would provide some competition for 2K this season as 2k12 was such a dissapointment to me. oh well.
 
# 975 bumpyface @ 09/01/12 09:50 AM
This game looks awful! WTH has EA been doing for the past 2 and a half years? SMH. This game looks like it was made a decade ago. Seriously EA? I guess I can go ahead and pay for my copy of Nba2k13 cause this game looks prehistoric lol.

this will be competition to 2k with sales. because when the kids see the 20 dollar price tag on the game and buy it, and the game goes gold or better 2k knows they have to comeback with groundbreaking features ,so if Ea releases the game cheaper next year they can have a a bigger reason to spend the extra money.

Uh, an inferior product to what 2k is doing isn't going to be more successful overall just because its cheaper. 2k doesn't have to do anything groundbreaking considering their game is already leaps and bounds ahead of this in all likelihood. Just continue improving as they have consistently shown the willingness to do. I don't imagine the masses will go to Live just because its 20 bucks.

Wow you might be right... I originally thought no way, no matter how bad we think Live 13 looks, it definitely couldn't look as bad as last gen.... But....

I swear some of the stuff that gets thrown around in this forum lol. Dudes act like just by having the game available digitally and because it's 20 dollars people are going to automatically buy it no questions asked. Like people download games off a Scratch-N-Sniff basis or some ****. Competition to 2K with sales? Do people even know how many sales downloadable games normally do?
 
# 980 achieveduser @ 09/03/12 04:33 PM
Ouch those game play animations are so bad.

I don't see this product doing well at all EA!

Why don't you just focus on NBA Jam and sell us some DLC featuring more legend players... reggie, charles, iverson etc...

I would certainly pay you 10 bucks for that type of DLC but not for this poor looking game. Sorry.
