Can someone PLEASE! show a close up pick of Allen Iverson. THanx

It is possible to do that, I believe. Someone requested that the mod put up a screenshot of that on the other board. If he does, I'll paste the image here.

Why is everyone obsessed on giving Yao headband ?

Personally, I want to see Yao with cornrows and a few "Thug Life" tattoos.

Mr. Luck is doing an excellent job with his answering of questions. Too bad most people are asking questions about player models and shoes, I'm more concerned with gameplay issues.

If he drops anything worth noting I'll make sure to relay it to everyone here on this thread.

FYI Operationsports just released 5 new GAMEPLAY videos.

It's looking good. im as big of a sim fan as the rest of you simheads..

Thanks WallyHopp, I'm really enjoying these gameplay vids. I still can't believe how much has been changed, improved and overhauled in the span of one year.

That dunk contest challenge was absolutely bananas! Man, I'm dying of thirst over here, need........game.........now.......

I really feel sorry for the mods at that board. It's like a Hooked on Phonics nightmare over there. Good God.

I would be able to you a pic of yao tomorrow.

I'm going to paste some of his answers to the questions here. Hopefully, that's cool with the mods from both sites:

so far I haven't used an existing NBA player's name, but they don't say the created player's name, just their #



I played a couple of 5 minute games, and the cpu didn't sub as much as I would've liked it to....of course, I need to play with the sliders and length of quarters before I can give you a definitive answer.....and it was after the first FT



I didn't check this in the box scores yet, will get back to you on thatI checked this out, and the bug still remains, blocked shots dont count towards shot attempts (Luck)



This year the amount of charges has been toned down it seems....instead when you try to take a charge, your player flops, but I rarely saw a charge called....this left the opponent with a clear path to the basket.....this bothers me a bit because, yeah they fixed it, but they might have over compensated for last years problem....more on this later



Yeah I saw that vid too....this year rebounding is done a lot better, but it's still not perfect.....I didn't see the block animation as the player went straight up for the ball, but sometimes the controls weren't as responsive as I would like it to be....but still, it's better than last year

1. Cant release players from Legends teams.

2. No West again, no idea what the situation behind that is, im sure its licensing.



You can make your player look his age....so older players will look "older" and vice versa.

I've looked at the legend teams, and some more omissions: West, Olajuwon, Jordan, Barkley, and Stockton.

It's all good, though, because we got Spud Webb this year!

Excellent work fellas! I have a few for you:

Thanks!...we love your site as well

1. Are the "frustration animations" still in the game? EX: You go for a dunk, miss and it seems like you have ample time to get the ball back for a second try.

But instead your virtual baller is stuck in this horrid "post-dunk" animation where you lose control of him for 3-5 seconds! It also happens on the defensive end after blocks: FRUSTRATING. (The easiest way to check this would be in practice mode, go for a few dunks and see what your player does afterward.)

Sadly yes, they are.....I didn't get a chance to experiment with the dunks, but when my guy would get his shot blocked, he would stay there like a buffoon and not go after the damn ball....it was only a split second, but enough to piss me and others off...I'll post a little vid to illustrate what I mean

2. How are the "dribble bumps"? I found this frustrating as well with '04, sometimes you'd have, say, 6 seconds left on the clock but after a wretched dribble bump or two you can't even get a shot off.

This seems to be fixed for the most part...it happened to me once or twice but not nearly as much as last year

3. Drawing charges on big men in the post was incredibly easy, you'd simple press the "take charge" button while being backed down and they called a foul every time. Is this fixed?

This year the charges seem to be taken out altogether....lol....instead my man flopped and the ball handler would have a clear path to the basket...so they seem to have fixed that, but maybe overcompensated for it....see the vid

4. Any new dribble moves or ball handling animations?

Not any I noticed, pretty much the same as last year

5. Last year blocked shots didn't count as shot attempts, is this fixed?

Didn't pay attention to the boxscores, will get back to you on that

6. You eluded to the fact that there is an auto load feature in an earlier post. Specifically speaking, what gets loaded? (Fingers crossed that it's user profile and settings!)

No user profiles OR bio......bummer EA...I don't have any rosters saved so I didn't see anything specific loaded

7. In one on one mode are there any new play areas besides gym and street? Also, can we finally choose a new opponent after a game without completely leaving this mode?

Nope, same as last year....Urban & Gym...you have to leave the game for a new opponent

8. Rumor is my boy Kareem has made his official debut in this game, is this true? Also, is it possible to get a list of all the legends team by team?

Yep, he's in the game....peep my screenshots for the list

9. Lamar Odom for the past five years has been given the complexion of actor Wesley Snipes, is this finally fixed?

LMAO....yes, but barely...lol...see the screen shot

10. In CAP mode, do they now offer a greater assortment of tattoes? Also, can we edit player's hairstyles and socks? (length, color, etc.)

See screens Luck posted

11. Is it true that the primacy rating is now unavailable for user adjustment?

didn't check, will holla back on that

12. Are there any new defensive animations?

Nothing that will make you go WOW

13. Can we have more than one user-controlled team in Franchise mode?

Nope, only one team, 25 seasons

14. For the fantasy draft portion of the game: Can we now add legends to the draft pool?

Unfortunately no

It looks like the highlight this year will probably be the dunk contest. For those of us who's number one interest is the basketball part, there are some improvements, but still plenty of annoying stuff. Shot blocks STILL don't count as field goal attempts! Is it really so hard to fix?

Mr. Luck is doing an excellent job with his answering of questions. Too bad most people are asking questions about player models and shoes, I'm more concerned with gameplay issues.

Is MrLuck's sn "MrLuck"?

Sounds like EA fixed the major bugs, ignored a lot of the minor ones, added the All Star weekend, tweaked Dynasty mode within a year. Fair enough I guess, but some of these minor ones shouldn't be that hard to fix or ignore.

yeah its good they fixed the major bugs (as far as we know), the smaller ones will nag us till 06....hopefully 05 is a base to build on for future versions

What up Brooklyn, Holla! I pm'd you over on your site thanks for looking out for the NLSC like this. ONE.

Could you make a movie of Kobes specific moves or dunks ?

most of the questions people have asked can actually be changed using the sliders, i.e. charge frequency, defender bounce off frequency etc etc so you can tweak these how you like, but it sounds to me there still loads of gripes that were in 2004.

So EA are telling me they didnt add any more freestyle moves? how about dunk variety's, passing animations, alley hoop animations etc?

and WTF have they left stockton and olajuwan out the game?

So EA are telling me they didnt add any more freestyle moves? how about dunk variety's, passing animations, alley hoop animations etc?

my guess is that they will have diffrent freestyle dribbling animations for different types of players. like how they gave some players this year different shooting styles. then again they might not ... i really don't expect much for next year but i do have high hopes for the LIVE 2007.
