Gameplay????

Tue Oct 24, 2006 2:32 am

Is it me or is the gameplay of Live 07 the worst. I mean you can not dribble the ball without the game controlling you, doing automatic crossovers, bumping off of each other everytime you get close to someone, doesn't responding very well to the actions you give them, the lean in lay up is the most dumb move they put up here, you can not try to steal without them calling a foul, in-air collison is one of the worst, the double tap quick pass doesn't benfit anything cause sometime they do not do it....and I mean there is more to it. Oh don't forget the new one, if you try to freestyle dunk or lay up they jump over the defender and fall on their face. If I am the only one who feels this way please let me know but I will like to hear others comments on this subject cause NBA Live series use to be dependable but now they are falling.

read around my friend, you'll see we've addressed alot these things. It sounds to me however like you're looking for an nba jam caliber game....ill take your points one by one

Umm, what are you trying to do when you dribble? Drive the lane with marko jaric? I feel this is actually a more realistic version of the game compared to earlier years. Dribbling in real life, even for NBA players, isnt necessarily "automatic" It takes position and thought to be good at.

Yes the lean in layup is retarded

You can try to steal without them calling a foul. If you go for a steal and smack a guy on the back, its going to call it, step back a bit, think about what hand you're using and then go for the steal. (be careful, the game is much better bout burning you on missed steals this year)

In air collisions havent been good in live for awhile, try jacking up your sliders if you want more calls

yet to try this feature so i'll take your word for it

And you are wrong sir. You are not supposed to be able to Freestyle THROUGH people. I dont care if you're lebron, kobe, Shaq, d-wade or whoever...they needed to tone down highflyer/power impact, so they did. watch an NBA game sometime...Lebron doesnt dunk from the FT line every play like you could in '06

This is my take, you dont have to agree...i just feel you're expecting an arcade game but playing on sim settings or something
