Bennie08 & PS3Owner,

I think that the reason why Live 365 is not updated in Dynasty is because once you use a particular roster update from Live 365, the default rosters, or your own user-edited rosters, you essentially take that roster into your particular dynasty and everyone on your team and the other CPU teams play according to the Player DNA that you used to start your Dynasty mode with.

That really doesn't answer the question. I think they know that but they've been wandering why it is not updated because it would make the game very realistic. Or maybe just per game a update. something like that. like in the play now menu you can play rewind games with the specific rosters of that game.

It's because Dynasty Mode is its own NBA "reality", with the user and CPU controlled teams making trades and developing players. If the NBA Live 365 updates were applied to Dynasty Mode, that would all be wiped. If you've made a blockbuster trade and assembled a roster that's to your liking, you're probably not going to be very pleased if the rosters suddenly revert to the real lineups. Likewise, if you've been developing one of your young players and seeing a lot of progress, the last thing you want is the 365 updates to come and change their ratings and undo all your work.

Furthermore, you aren't necessarily going to play a Dynasty season at the same pace as the NBA season, one game per day and sometimes with a couple of days in between. If you're into it, you might be playing at least two or three games a day and that doesn't suit the NBA Live 365 updates. It would be cool if you could play a Dynasty like that and utilise the updates but that should be an option, not the norm because it wouldn't suit everyone.

Thanx Andrew.
