Roster Update Postponed; Progress Report

[Andrew]

Originally I had intended to release a post Draft roster update for NBA Live 07 today, however I am unfortunately going to have to postpone the update due until Sunday, July 22nd. Although I have added all necessary players to date, I am still missing around 15 faces for draftees and undrafted free agents who have signed thus far. I'm also still working on rookie ratings as well as updating some player bio data. I did consider releasing a "beta" update of sorts this weekend and following up with a full update next weekend but I would prefer to utilise the extra week to put some more quality work into the updates.

I don't like to postpone the updates if I can avoid it but at the same time I do not like to release work that I am not satisfied with. I apologise to everyone looking forward to the release but this delay should ensure a better update. Thank you for your patience and understanding, I do intend to continue updates through the offseason and am not cancelling future updates for NBA Live 07.

I think Arthas86 might be sad. Perhaps he should consider how nice of you it is to do all the hard work only for the little bit of recognition you recieve.

I, for one, have always appreciated the hard work you put into this site and the community.

No, I'm not sucking up but it sure sounds like it.

Waiting for the patch. Come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Andrew]

I understand that you're waiting mengyougu, but I'm not a patchmaking robot who can work on roster updates 24/7. It's something I do in my spare time so I'm afraid you'll just have to be patient.

Yes, let us thank Andrew for all the hardwork he done. He only wants the best result. Also since trading is on process. He might also update all the team roster until sunday.

[Arthas86]

Don't worry Andrew

[Anthony15]

Damn it, I can't take the postponement *starts loading a gun* j/k

[panedved]

[lstern]

*also wanted to say that I've never had any real problems with your patches and they always run well, so thank you.

[aussie_playa]

Thanks for all the work Andrew, Looking forward to the release!!

[hawks24]

I am really excited, and will they have Nba Draft Rookies?

[Scofield]

I am really excited, and will they have Nba Draft Rookies?

as i understand yes, they will have all the draft rookies, but only those who signed a contract, or will in near future.

[Andrew]

All 60 draftees plus the nine undrafted free agents who have signed so far will be included. However, due to the fact NBA Live enforces the 15 player roster limit teams that have more than 15 players currently signed will have some of their players in the Free Agent pool. This is something I have to juggle throughout the offseason updates.

[Arthas86]

Andrew, can you include the last shoe patch too

[Andrew]

Sorry, no shoe patches will be included.

[Arthas86]
