Sliders that don't work are the worst thing. In my opinion, if they work they are great.

If lowering dunks in traffic makes them happen less, good sliders.

But using Madden and NCAA, if raising pass interference makes us feel like it backs off coverage, or lowering roughing the kicker makes LB's play better, bad sliders.

How in the hell are you guys scoring so many points ? I play on 10 minutes and the CPU nor me have even cracked the high 80s yet. But you guys well above 100 ? What the hell are you guys doing running and gunning, playing no D ?

I always did wonder what the L1 button did because EA sure as hell don't say what it does in the controls. Does L1 do anything on defense too ?

Anyway I played Miami using Nets at 3am on Superstar as usual. Got out to a huge lead in the 1st half. Then came 4th quarter all my guys started missing shots that they were making in the 1st half. I'm talking wide open, solid green for range, solid green for release shots.

I am a really starting to believe Synergy prevents players from scoring more then their current season average for points per a game. It is like the Synergy is over riding ratings. Ratings say yeah you can hit that shot, but Synergy says you average 12 points a game and you already at 12 so we going to make you miss that wide open jumper.

Sliders that don't work correctly yes.....

But to me, this game right here without sliders is frustrating as hell because it is too many wonky BS things that goes on in this game that could have been easily fixed with sliders DAYS AGO.

# 564 dubplate @ 11/02/14 02:49 PM

The more I play the more useless playing defense seems to be. Contested shots should increase the chance of a miss but it seems to be quite the opposite. Don't get me started on three pointers.

How in the hell do you stop the CPU from scoring?!

# 565 magicman32 @ 11/02/14 02:50 PM

Well. That's it for me. Lol. Deleted this garbage from my hard drive. It's a complete waste of space. Ea has been making basketball games for too long to release this type of product in the year 2014. I'm being kind by calling live 15 "mediocre". I hope ea brings nba street back.

Doing a CPU vs CPU while watching football and I see igoudala bringing up the ball

I've seen backdoor and almost near half court lobs

Things ppl are complain about happen on live, just don't happen enough.

# 567 nick_sr @ 11/02/14 03:05 PM

Really love the addition of the breakaway cam!!!

Live seriously needs to patch in dunk packages because everybody thatcan ddunk is dinking the same smh

The first few days Iwas seeing ddifferent alley animations but now it seems as if its the exact same animation every time

Sliders have become a bit of a cop-out and forced users to waste their time doing the devs work. Plus, for online ranked players sliders aren't an option, so sports games need to ship on-point. The devs are the ones with all the stats and data available to them, they know exactly how often or how hard/easy certain things should be, so it's on them to make sure everything translates properly into the game.

Beat the Cavs on Superstar by 10...pretty good game.

Just those same nagging issues...they we're 7\10 from 3...wished Top Replay worked so I could capture some of what they were hitting.

Here's a good example of steals\FB's being too easy:

Rio strips Irving, then dunks ON Bron

That was ugly looking. If Bron just turned completely around, he would have stopped that. It was almost like all 3 players were stuck together by how close they were running together down the court.

# 571 dubplate @ 11/02/14 03:26 PM

Ugh. That was one of the most frustrating experiences I've had with this game. Felt like no matter what I did the CPU was there to say, "Screw you. Guess again." I had to double check to make sure I wasn't playing 2K.

Something changed recently and not for the better.

Also, has anyone noticed that your player pulls up for a jumper instead of driving the lane for a dunk or layup? It really pisses me off because those opportunities are hard to come by and when it finally happens my player pulls up for a jumper, which they miss 95% of the time.

Yeah I posted that, I hate it too.

Then I read your post and think hmmm...was it only varied rim interactions with misses? I know for certain I haven't seen a ball bounce around the rim and drop on an and 1. Every one I have witnessed has dropped out for a miss and 2 FT shots.

I've actually seen a bit of variation lately. I think someone posted a video where the ball bounced around the rim on a three and went in.

I think I'm gonna trade my sealed copy of Madden 15 for PS4 for this. I don't know what to do with that game lol.

# 576 pdawg17 @ 11/02/14 05:04 PM

Anyone know what the resolution and frame rate is? Just curious...

Still holding out hope that EA fixes the issue with the QB's in Madden 15.

I don't want to trade it in because it looks gorgeous but at the moment QB decision making keeps the game from being playable long term.

There are plenty of sports games I've played over the years where the experience was ruined simply by the gameplay I was witnessing out of the box.

Some of us want sliders in sports games to customize it to our liking the way we would like to see the game play....for those who don't like sliders I don't see how including sliders would ruin the game for you since no one is forcing you to change the sliders.

To each of their own though....
