+1 never the same quality as playing on ur tv. Man check dem socks on the player in yellow @ 10 second mark. The dunk in traffic looked good IMHO. He dunked between 2 players, no on the if ur looking for the contact. He sounds are tidy also. Bring on the 15th!!!

The game looks good, BUT I absolutely hate the fact that EVERY jump ball warps back to the point guard. No bounce, no variation in the trajectory of the ball at all. I'm no developer and appreciate what they do, but how could they miss that?

Looks great. Like the camera angle too! Still looking forward to playing the demo

1080p at 60fps it looks really good. Much better than the youtube quality. The lighting and skin textures are much better than 15, as is the sweat.

Ok EA I can dig it. It's definitely night & day compared to last year. Still noticed some typical NBA Live legacy issues (animation stiffness, floaty passes, ball warping on dribbles, etc...) but you can definitely see that these guys are trying. The gap isn't as wide for the competition as it once was that's for sure. I won't be getting Live 16 mainly because I don't have time for 2 basketball games in my life lol. I will say that I'm impressed with what I saw. It honestly looks better than I thought it would. Keep it up EA & you can get back to your glory days when Live was on top!

If the online works its a big plus for EA. Its most likely never going to out sell 2K and I think EA is ok with that.

Looks ard tho
 
# 90 Poke @ 09/11/15 08:56 PM
Here we go again with the jump shots and dunks. Can we PLEASE see lay ups and post game.

I like the spacing. Not sure about the players.

As always, I worry about it being too easy to get to the rim with Live.

Pro Am looks good, I am just worried about 5 v 5...to 21. With 5v5 I would rather play with NBA rules. And timeouts, man timeouts come in handy if the team you are playing goes on a run.

I am definitely getting the demo to check out Pro AM, online is about all I play.

That a very valid point watching it again both tip off share the same animation tsk tsk

Yes. Hold down on DPad.

All tip-offs are that way. It is what it is.

CPU Defense = absolutely terrible. Who on earth leaves Durant WIDE open to clog the paint?


Same stuff as last year, where the "spacing" everyone talks about was often just dumb CPU AI.


I am strictly USER v CPU...really hoping this is not a sign of the new "help D".

This happened non stop in LIVE 15.

looks good. there is something not right with the way the arms and hands are..they tend to look like too stiff sometimes. like always in an L with the hands pointed. like old 64 graphics on perfect dark. however, it does look really good otherwise. like the playcalling system with multiple direction indicators.

If it makes you feel any better, I went into triple overtime against the CPU on All-Star, and was handed my rear end on a silver platter against the CPU on Superstar. They'll play much better defense, and the rotations are on point, but not psychic.

I think you'll appreciate what they've done this year once you play the demo.
