Lopez is 6-9 currently against the Cavs, mostly on 12-footers.

If people saw Lopez making those shots on Live, they'd say it was unrealistic.

A few bugs from online. Some apply offline
It's pretty easy to shoot 100% from the FT line regardless of the shooter
Using the touchpad to call TOs only does 20 sec TOs
James hardens euro step is literally unstoppable
The skip button sometimes doesn't disappear in the bottom left corner

Just played a horrific game, 76'ers me vs pistons cpu

Gah. The 76'ers are god awful.

0-12 from 3. 0 from 12. Zero. Yes, zero.

The pistons fouled me 15 times. Why? I have no idea. The FT line was the only thing that kept me in this game.

What is starting to really piss me off is the behavior of the forwards and centers of the human side. They do nothing, absolutely nothing. I started watching the cpu forwards and center. They work in unison to prevent penetration while mine spread apart to allow it (not just this game, all games).
The cpu will also auto box out with 2, even 3 players while I can only pick one player to control and hold LT to box out, they also dive under my players and always establish better positiong for rebounds on both ends of the floor.

Its bad programming to make the user do everything when they can only control one of five players.

Anyway here are the awful stats to an awful game. Not NBA live, the pistons 76ers, that is the awful game.

Man if I could make player like LeBron miss to two shots at the rim in Live by just being present in the lane like Kaman did in this CLE/POR game that'd be awesome...lol

# 725 BL8001 @ 11/05/14 12:31 AM

And points in the paint isnt the problem. Points right under the basket, that is the problem. I would be thrilled if the cpu cut into the lane and shot one from the elbow or just inside the ft line. Its all put backs or passes to someone low right under the basket.

# 726 pdawg17 @ 11/05/14 12:49 AM

Here's my game vs Pistons on SS. 3-point numbers look great. Probably 5 of those CPU misses were wide open looks. And 1 of the makes was a full court shot at the 2nd quarter buzzer by Drummond! Otherwise they were 1-10.

Btw are other people seeing way too many half court or longer shots made? I've maybe played 15 games since launch and have seen 4. Way too many...

I'm liking that this game doesn't reward cheese

One thing though
Some awkward post moves seem really hard to prevent from going in.

In other news I'm beating a guy who is 44 and 5 by 30

I only say that cuz I played a guy last night who was 28-5 and was all Lebron. Almost beat him but thought maybe he had made his way to another 15 wins since then LOL.

# 731 Moses Shuttlesworth @ 11/05/14 01:25 AM

I love this game but a couple times I was awarded with 3 free throws when fouled shooting inside the paint lol

You playing on SS Level right?

# 733 stormdrain @ 11/05/14 01:34 AM

Had no idea you couldnt change your settings in Ultimate Team, I hope they patch that. Is it just me or has the CPU got a lot better and the Human players got worse? They NEED to fix the timing on shots, free throws are too easy, regular shots, too hard. And those CPU 3s are still going in way too easy. The CPU still can't be stopped in the paint, if they want to score, they WILL score. Here is hoping they are working on a big patch (like UFC).

# 734 Moses Shuttlesworth @ 11/05/14 01:36 AM

That thing where a big will be in the post, covered tight, then disengages and drives in for silly move that usually goes in seems to happen a bit too much.

# 735 pdawg17 @ 11/05/14 02:05 AM

Don't know if I'm getting "lucky" suddenly after 25 games or so but I'm starting to see more variety in rim/net physics on made shots. I've had a few FT go in softly "toilet bowl" style and a couple of made 3's that "rattle" in a bit. Looks great...

# 736 Moses Shuttlesworth @ 11/05/14 02:05 AM

When cycling through subs the player who plays that position should be first available not last.

Timeouts should be lowered under 2 mins

I saw a guy bank in a 3.

If I'm in practice mode shooting around I shouldn't have to quit in order to change the practice situation to 1 on 1 or scrimmage.

# 738 zmoney117 @ 11/05/14 03:01 AM

How do you do a floater? It's not L1 and square anymore right? I been trying that and nothing.

# 739 The 24th Letter @ 11/05/14 07:44 AM

Did they tweak blocking? I know some were worried about getting too many...seems like it after a couple of games....

Issue is, seems like now you have even less of a chance against guys down low....and the success rate was way too high to begin with..

Yes. I may need to go pro? And do the defender "lock" thing?
