NBA Live 15 News Post


The waiting is over.

EA Sports is planning to do a gameplay live stream of NBA Live 15 tonight on Twitch. An official time has not been announced yet, but it's likely the EA Sports NBA Twitter account will be where the announcement is made.

UPDATE: Looks like they are almost ready to start, tune in here or watch the embedded stream above, as it starts. Once the archive is available, we will update this post with a link to it.

UPDATE #2: If you missed the stream, you can watch the archive here.

Are you looking forward to our first look at NBA Live 15 gameplay?

Yeah, I really wanted to see the post game. Also, doesn't seem like they are excited playing it. I don't know why they decided to go with the "oh well" attitude. If you are releasing a game and showing it for the first time, you should show some excitement, in my opinion.

Anyway, would love to see user vs cpu video.

BTW the jerseys are AWESOME, might be the best jerseys i have ever seen in a sports video game.

Why isn't automotion on by default?

they can improve on passing animations. graphics actually look pretty decent

What's people's beef with the passing?

I.E. turning on automotion, making sure it's on the higher levels that will solve all the woes that you're telling us the higher levels solve, etc.

I'll still be downloading Tuesday and probably hunting for ebay sales or friends that may pick it up and later look to offload it for cheap later on. So I'll definitely find out for myself, but right now it just doesn't make sense to me.
I don't want anybody to buy the game based on my word. I want guys to try the demo.

I just want them to ship the game with Automotion enabled, but apparently statistics say otherwise. We are in the minority. Guys like to isolate and try to drive to the hoop more often than not, and don't want guys randomly cutting allowing other defenders to collapse. Take the 10 seconds upon getting the game and turn it on.

The difficulty definitely affects the amount of contested shots that go in, as well as the defensive aggressiveness both on help defense, and on the ball. There seems to be a lot more bumping, knocking you off of your path to the hole.

Again, I don't want anyone to buy a game based on my thoughts. I do want guys to try it, and formulate their own thoughts. If it's not your cup o tea, then at least you'll decide not to buy it based on it's own merits in your hands. Not from a video that, in my mind, doesn't do it nearly the justice that it deserves.

Even Connor and Santos both stated that they play on AllStar during the feed... yet they were playing on Pro in the Stream.

When 2K waited to the last minute to stream their game and all they did was run isolation and pick and roll plays the entire time did you complain then? Cause most people thought the game looked completely different from the footage Czar was showing which Mike Wang even acknowledged in 2K's stream that day.

This is the Live forum....

I think that if they finally decided to get rid of the tiny steps players are taking whenever they're moving, some day this game will move so much better. It doesn't matter what speed they are running, as long as they keep using those tiny steps it'll never look/function right.

That should be the first thing on their list for Live 16.

Glad they are back with a game and not canceled. This is what live means to me after watching the gameplay. I will play the demo but looking forward to 16 more than 15. They need to get a new player animation tech and work on passing

Ea makes games so bad that when they make a little bit of improvement everyone goes crazy.... It looks ok I like the body and the jerseys everything else no thanks but definitely a step in the right direction, I'm not sure if Tiburon developes this series or not but I have little to no faith in EA because how bad Madden is..would love two great basketball games to choose from though.

I don't agree with the "little bit of improvement" because there is definitely noticeable improvement.

However, I agree with you that the game is measured by how bad things have been inside the NBA Live world. Every feature/mechanic that they didn't have last year (and possibly in any of the cancelled titles) but had in Live 10, suddenly seem amazing. But this is how Live is being measured, in my opinion. Not vs. the other game or any sports game, but by comparing it to their last good (their best) effort - Live 10 and/or to their recent not-so-great 14. Even things that have been in sports game for a few years now (even in their own previous titles), when they are finally included in a next-gen NBA Live, it's like WOW!

This is so much better to watch than the official Cavs and Raptors videos.

But still not up to scratch compared to any modern sports title. I was really hoping that somehow they had snuck Live 10 back in there with a new paint job. That would've been great. But this is nowhere close to that level. This is still in serious WIP stage..... Not wowed......

I think it looks just like Live 10.
