After watching again...

I try to be objective as possible...and I want Live to succeed, I really do...

but how do you have this much "jerkiness" in. TRAILER? You can clearly see animation translations in the Rose/Melo clips..

It's a trailer, You're supposed to at least try to cover these things up...

Leads to me ask: is it that prevalent in the game they couldn't find clips without it?

The ball physics seems weird - like it's only a few grams. Of ball movement seems to be lacking. One of the biggest selling points for EA's next gen sports titles was "Living Worlds", where the atmosphere would really come to live....

The game was trash to me.

I'm not gonna lie to myself and praise a finished game for having a couple innovative features when the real meat of the game is garbage.

Im sorry but this just looks like current gen compared to what 2k showed.

Well I just watched it for the 5th time and I want to know, what in the world happened to Rose's defender? And why is this guy in the NBA? He makes no reaction to Rose at all, he just stands there and Rose blows past him. Normally when someone gets beat to the basket it is because they get juked out for go for a steal at the wrong time, in this trailer the guy is just standing there arms extended and Rose goes by him.

Does it look better? That is subjective. I will say the dribbling overall looks better because it has signatures in it. The player models are not doing it for me though. If I zoomed in on the players in 2K current gen it would be a push. Live has better faces but lacks fluidity. Do I think it will play better than current gen? Too early to say because this is a trailer.

Most likely yes.

Also how the Nash clip makes it into the trailer? It's just ugly. How was it the trailer's teaser too?

i think it goes the other way. if they hit there sales it means they made the game play good enough. then they can start workign more on the graphics and animations instead of having to redo the dribbling again. or it could go the madden route and they deceide to redo everything every year no matter what it looks like

Negatives: That Steve Nash clip still made me hurl. The net physics are still lackluster, but not enough to take you out of the immersion. No, the PS2 like dunk animations where the fingers don't even connect on the rim do that for you. That last dunk was bleh.

Edit: Looking back at some of the dunks...there was 1 nice dunk, and that was the D-Wade dunk. Everything else was meh. It's like there was something missing from them. I think it was because I could only get a sense of ferocity from D-Wade's dunk. The others didn't have enough force IMO.
The trailer was good, and I will be getting live on release AT THIS POINT. The animations still are live 10ish. But the game speed looks more realistic, and if this is a cleaned up version of live 10 then 14 will be good for me. I am more of a game play guy and this trailer showed alot of gameplay. All I want is a game that values basketball strategy as opposed to a video game turbo/dunk fest.

As far as the actual gameplay goes, it seems really stiff. Paul George going through the lane and then throwing up a floater just didn't look fluid. Once I see more actual gameplay, rather than speed up and slow down trailer footage, it might seem different though.
Pretty much agreed. Not that the 2k trailer was perfect but there were a couple places in THAT trailer where I was like HOLY COW! -- for instance, the Lebron block or the dunk and reaction of Anthony Davis.

I am not ready to call the fat lady just yet. They have some positives in there. They have something they can build off of for the future. Dribbling looks nice and intuitive, and the atmosphere looks good. Animations can be cleaned up and the player models can use more polish. The sweat looks a bit off. The ball and net physics could use a little more polish too.

I am happy that another basketball game is on the market!!!!

"Competition is Good" In my Gordan Gecko voice.

Looks like Live 09 with next gen textures. Dunks looked awkward save the windmill. Dribbling looked pretty good. I also wish EA spent more resources on the area surrounding the court. I wanted the baseline to have more characters as well as the bench. Coaches probably still don't sit down. I just wanted the atmosphere appearance to be better. The crowd looks good though. I'm sure it sounds great.

I think until EA gets rid of anything that is tied to the ANT system, its going to continue to move like hot garbage. All of these players moving and dribbling like they swallowed half a bottle of caffiene pills is ridiculous.

I still see how they purposely tried to hide stuff like how the game looks in real time zoomed out. Rose's dunk was awful, and the defense seems dumber than rocks in the paint.

Just like Felton did, Amare disappeared on that layup (what the heck is up with players disappearing) and overall the movement makes the already bright colored players look like puppets.

The dribbling was cool, but I was doing similar stuff in Live 10, and the worse part about that is, you can only do stationary dribbling stuff, none of that stuff can be done while moving to throw the defender off.

I see ALOT of legacy issues in this game which is what I was hoping wasn't true, and all of the people saying that Steve Nash clip was an old build because of how it was recieved, do you still think it was an old build?
