Sig shots/ free throws as far as I know...haven't seen signature anything else...I thought Wades push shot was exclusive to him but I have seen a couple of other players do it as well...

LB/L1 + A/X
Lead pass is your friend, also it is a friend that hates you and will turn the ball over an appropriate amount of times, but it is still your friend.

I like the shot releases now, but it was too big of an adjustment from Live 10/2K without any feedback whatsoever. What bothers me the most is EA's answer to the "How do I shoot?" question with videos or explanations of the different shots in the game. Just say its a quick, natural to real-life, hold of the button and I'll be happy.

Total control passing (RB + RS) leads as well...found that a lot less cumbersome than (LB + A/X) for me personally..

Next year they should make plays flow naturally whatever pass you chose....I see Ginobili flash through the lane he should make a total stop to catch it if I didn't hit the lead button..

This game plays so well when you play the game well. What I mean by that is if you are generally good at the game, then the game flow and animations that trigger tend to be a lot better.

I think I'm finally ready to come off Rookie level. Beat the Spurs 100-85. Been struggling even on Rookie but finally defense is better and I'm winning consistently.

I can't win on pro

Just played the UT tip-off mode. Played against the suns, it gets put on superstar difficulty....I won by over 20. My largest UT win by far. Only got 700 points, and 73 for difficulty (same as fantasy showdown games iirc), and that was with a 30 point game with Curry, Wade over 20, and tons of blocks and steals.

The game was much, MUCH faster paced, but the same blocking and steal timing, as well as offensive strategy (cut cut cut cut cut manual screen cut again, find open person, profit) still worked.

Doesn't matter, had fun.

Jao, have you noticed the late game stuff in UT yet? I was thinking about getting into mine, otherwise I might shut Live down until the patch...cant do 48 minutes just to end in that mess...

i saw this for the first time over the weekend. same scenario: i was down by one or two points and the cpu dribbled out the shot clock leaving about 3 seconds on the game clock instead of at least trying a shot. hopefully that gets fixed quick. luckily ive only had it happen the one time but still an issue.

I've had it happen twice in the last 4 games I've played. I find myself trying not to have a 3 point lead with less than a min left. They really need to find out what's causing this.

Well, you'd be only wasting 20 or 24 minutes. Games are locked 5 minutes (previously 6 minutes before that "reset" or whatever that was).

I have had a couple games go to OT (another 5 minute period...I hate that), I have not had the late-game issue in those situations. The CPU always shot like they should. I don't want to say UT simply doesn't have that issue, but I haven't experienced it in the mode.

Good to hear...maybe Ill do this for the time being..

Yeah, unfortunately it's not limited to that one scenario either as I posted above...sucks!

I haven't had many close games, so I can't speak about the late game AI specifically.

But I see the CPU dribble out the end of quarters and dribble through the end of the shot clock all the time in Ultimate Team.

I would say it happens at least two to three times per game where they just stand still dribbling until the clock expires.

gotta say the more and more I play LIVE the more I like it time, the game does really scream simulation, beyond the looks which aren't bad by any stretch, the game plays like basketball. And what ever they did with the last roster update the game plays better not seeing a lot of the herky jerky movement as I was before. I love the fact that you can truly play 12 minuets quarters and get real to life scores. Love all the ESPN cams to, in a nut shell LIVE is a good game.
