NBA Live 15 Fans Getting the Short End of the Stick

12:59 PM - August 30, 2014 by Steve_OS

We had our first glimpse of NBA Live 15 way back in April, then in June we found out the release date (October 7th) and read an open letter from Sean O’Brien, which promised a lot for NBA Live fans to be excited about. Here is a direct quote from it.

Quote:


	We’ll start sharing gameplay details in July, and will continue to provide in-depth insight through August and September. During this time there will be plenty of content popping up here on the NBA LIVE website, as well as hands-on previews from your favorite sports and gaming outlets. We know we’ve got a lot to prove this year, and we’ve got a solid plan in place to provide you with all the details and take the first steps to making NBA LIVE 15 a game you’re excited to play.

Looking back at July, gameplay details were not revealed. In fact, the only real information that we had in the month of July was that a demo could come earlier than expected and they placed the @NBA Twitter handle on the basketball. Maybe the loss of Scott O'Gallaher sent them scrambling? Who knows, let's move on to August.

This month has been filled with screenshots of various arenas and a late Damian Lillard cover announcement with a few more screenshots of him sprinkled in. Not exactly the "in-depth insight" fans were expecting.

While there were some hands-on impressions in August from GameInformer and MMGN, as well as a podcast from our friends at NLSC, no other site has written anything else about the game.

So here we are, almost in September and we still don't know what to expect from the game. What modes are there? What gameplay changes have been made? What are they hiding from us?

NBA Live fans deserve better.

Maybe they have a schedule set to talk about everything up to the trial being released and then letting you judge the game for yourself mid September. I'd say the 16th if they plan on releasing it earlier than usual. But it could be the 23rd.

Y'all need to stop with this kind of stuff. As much as people post bitching about people "bashing Live no matter what" and all this other stuff, I don't ever see any of y'all posting anything to curb this kind of excuse making. There was more than enough wrong with Live last year to fill up two months worth of content. If they did an insight a week from August 1st to the end of September with these dumb *** arena shots sprinkled in the days between they'd have been good and anybody complaining about lack of info then would have just been needlessly bashing.

This is the exact reason I read and never post. If you have a problem with my post, message me. Watch who you're talking to kid. Thanks. I'm not in agreement with how they're handling the info release, but it's annoying to keep saying they need to show this and that because they have something to prove. That's the obvious. They'll release stuff when they do. It's just MY guess on why they're waiting to release info.

They are not going to show that gameplay footage until they are much closer to that Oct.7 release date. This is why EA access was created, because if some of their games like Live don't do well when released, then they can still make some kind of profit off the EA access subscriptions for letting you try it early for only six hours. Smart but sneaky business tactic by EA.

They NAILED Damian. The scowl at the end is perfect. And his dunk animation is spot on.

For future reference the internet tough guy act never works. Kid? I'm probably older than you man. If you feel I disrespected you, then just say so. But miss me with the tough guy stuff.

I'm semi confident Nba Live might be back. And really fun again.

Hopefully, EA STICKS with the video route.
