NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360, PS3)

[Court_vision]

Re: Patch 1 Impressions (360)

Uptempo teams, definately try to get into their offense quicker.

However, for anyone (like me) who is looking for the fastbreak game to be MUCH improved via this patch...you will probably be VERY dissapointed.

Just finished a full game against the Sixers and the AI is still passing up on fast break opportunities to set up the halfcourt offense, very similar to pre-patch.

I'll play more games but, it's not looking good in regards to the fastbreak issue.

Damm...

Can anyone else confirm this? How about rebounding?

I don't know why Beluba hasn't been able to fix the transition game in LIVE...he had a decent mix of full court basketball way back in Inside Drive 2004. Maybe the DNA just doesn't allow the CPU to attack in transition?

I had high hopes for this patch.

Is rebounding improved at all? Does the CPU now kick the ball out and re-set it's offense at all?

i played my share of games, the % in the game has nothing to do with it. its the slider for online play % thats maybe too high it has nothing to do with the dna ratings

maybe the overall shooting % for online games is too high but what you are asking for is an dna update, thats like someone playing on pro and asking for a dna update to make the game harder its the sliderssssssssssss

I really don't care what it is, whatever it is they need to fix it.

PM me what 2k sliders you're using. I want that same experience.

Re: Patch 1 Impressions (360)

CPu is much more focused and aggressive with the basketball this stands out immediately to me. They are also using even more iso's for perimeter stars.

Again I don't know if that is a patch thing or a dna thing but it feels and looks good. In the post guys seem to shoot a different turnaround more also. THat one that everyone uses is still there but does not get triggered everytime for the bigs I have used anyway.

To me the game feels more polished and the cpu appears to be a better opponent.

Lebron ran the offense and controlled the ball more than I had seen before. With the cpu being more aggressive depending on who your playing guys who didn't approve of the cpu taking quick shots may not like the update. However slower teams did slow it down more but even then seemed to push when it was there.

That's good to hear Czar

the fast break issue seems like a dna priority issue, everytime a fast break happens right i pause and go look at the dna and ratings and its starting to become a pattern....

guys who dunk and finish at the basket and have a high close shot % run the break well 6/10 times, guys who can dunk & like to run the floor but also like to spot up go to thier fav spots for the open uncontested pull up

still an issue

So online fatigue is broken. The fix to make it work also flipped the default for online games to OFF and nobody caught it. Flame away. It's a failure on 3 levels: programming/QA/Production. That's all I can say.

So what happens now ????

Is this just how it's gonna be ???

Will it be fixed in patch # 2 ???

It can't just be left at that.....

Re: Patch 1 Impressions (360)

It diffiently feels more polished.. played against the C's and the TRUTH was killing me with ISO's(especially when he had a mismatch) I loved how i had to adjust my defensive focus. Well done EA

Re: NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360 Patch Only, PS3 to Follow)

Initial impressions:

pace seems a bit faster

foul animations added/new contest animations added (is it me?)

definitely more fouls - even on Pro

default settings seem perfect

more variation on cpu's part when attacking

protect the ball dribble anim looks natural and nice

blocking seems better

rebounding feels crisper

passing more crisp and tightened too ( there seems to be a new two-handed pass animation that looks gorgeous

so far so good

Good impresions

Alot of free-throws!! I just got the game but I like it. The stars are the ones you must stop or they will abuse you.

I played 1 game and the cpu does run fast breaks. I wish I would have remembered how many points they got that way but it was more than 14.

(I was Blazers vs Bulls btw. 7 min quarters)

Same thing happens to me I'm trying to get used to it and it doesn't help that I hate the R2 L2 buttons on the PS3 remote.

Re: Patch 1 Impressions (360 Patch only, PS3 to follow)

Quick impressions of this patch:
A) A freeze I've never had before. The game just stayed stuck on my player bench. I could go into the menus and what-not, but the game simply refused to get off this scene (49 seconds left in the 1st quarter). I had to quit the game. Very annoying.

B) CPU now taking too many circus 3-point shots. In my game against the Cavs, they took 7 first-half 3-pt shots from idiotic spots, including one shot by Shaq! None of the shots came with shot clock winding down. They simply took bad shots. This was on all-star default.

C) I noticed more fouls, but 75% were against me, not the CPU. That could be the all-star cheat just kicking in

D) Game froze right after I installed the patch. I needed to restart it again.

E) Didn't notice any psychotic dunks after cpu offensive rebounds, but they didn't kick it out to set up a new offensive play either.

Dave...I was looking specifically for your comments as you are pretty much the biggest LIVE fan on these boards and have made a lot of good posts on the game for two seasons now.

So...to read of all those problems + crazy 3 point shots + no kick outs is kind of dissapointing.

Everyone seems to be saying the offense is now way too quick, 7 seconds and less stuff like the Mike D offense...is the game really this bad? Your opinion is pretty similar to mine on this game on most issues.

I've already mentioned a few times how to get the CPU to attack the basket in transistion.

It's just like it was in 2k10 they put some kind of code for all players at zero for layup vs dunk aggresiveness. You got to go in and change it on your own or waite for EA to assign an actual rating for all players.
