    New NBA LIVE Community Manager

    Hey guys,

    I figured before I start posting away on the forums that I should introduce myself. My name is Yaw (pronounced as "yao" like Yao Ming) and I'm the new NBA LIVE community manager.

    I've been following these forums for years so for me to be acting as a link between the forum community and the dev team is an incredibly exciting opportunity. I hope to be able to answer any questions you may have about NBA LIVE (well those that I can answer) and to be active with the OS community.

    A bit about myself, I've been with EA for two years. Before becoming a community manager I was a QA tester. Sports and gaming are my passions so linking the two together is a dream opportunity. This is a new challenge for me and I hope that I'll be a useful source of information for everyone here at OS.

    I hope this is the beginning of something cool between all of us and I'll try to be as informative as I can with regards to any info coming your way from the LIVE team. Talk to you all again later, peace.

    Yaw.

              I pretty sure he's legit, because he was on the NLSC forums.

                    So you were a QA guy?

                    Now does this mean we can ask you any question in a respectful way and you'll try to answer it to the best of your knowledge without some company line being a response?

                      Well there are certain questions that I may not be able to answer as it can be an issue with marketing/PR. However, any game related questions I should be able to answer most of your questions.

                          BlackFlash83,

                          I have been having serious troubles getting to the free throw line in the demo. When ever I draw contact down low I rarely get the call. I'm probably as sim as you can get and when I finally get a lane to the hoop I often get cut off mauled by Gasol or someone else with no foul. I understand that the mechanic was implemented to keep cheesers out of the lane, but the lack of foul calls is quite annoying. Do you have any tips on how to get to the line more often? Is the final version of Live different in this aspect? Thanks

                          PS.
                          I raised the foul sliders but they seem to only affect how often the CPU gets the call and maybe gets me 1 more call game.
