Too many suggestionz

[malice_05]

A lot a Y'all are never EVER satisfied with NBA Live final products are you?
For live 2004 I've read some unneccessary suggestions. Crowd Cam? Fines? Cheerleaders?!!? C'mon y'all. You ppl are asking for everything. Do you realize to put in all dis stuff would mean some stuff would have to be removed??? Wut y'all want next? See the players arriving at the arena in their limo, then seeing the limo driver drive off? Or a locker room cam?
Or how about in-game interviews with the players' wives?
Y'all really asking for too much. NBA Live is a very realistic game to a lot of ppl and you ppl are almost asking for a live NBA Broadcast like wut u see on TV.

We want it to be more fun and as real as it can be. If NBA 2k3 can fit most of the stuff we want than it can be done. We know it can be better.

lol, I don't think anyone would be satisfy with a game. There will always room for some type of improvement or some type of new thing to start a trend.

I'm not really against any of the suggestions but i'm actually leaning more forward to the opinion of malice cuz these elements are in a lot of ways unnecessary, take for example player's interviews and cheeerleaders and stuff, they would all get ennoying after a while and too much of the same.
They would take too much time away from the game and becuz of the repeating get really boring, and now honestly you all, after a while u would all be complaining again that the stuff is irritating, just like with the cut scenes, its a nice addition but after a while u get kinda tired of them.
Now after reading all these ideas and suggestions for a while, i can only decide and conclude that the best thing is, put EVERYTHING in the game thats been said, and make everything optional or with sliders, cuz its seems to be the only way to satisfy everyone(which already is virtually impossible)

Also ppl are forgeting what Live is about and thats a very intense,competitive basketball sim. A lotta folk want a lot of commercial things put into Live and if EA ever listened to every single suggestion( and put it on 2 discs), how much In-game BASKETBALL would be left?
I'm not sayin the suggestions are dumb or stupid or wutever, but I'm just saying Live will stay the same Live we all kno and(most of us) love if EA didn't put in these suggestions n concepts. I can understand NBA 2k3 having those interviews n stuff because they seem more like the promotional basketball video game franchise with the ESPN-like effect.

I'm probably saying that improvements should focus more on gameplay and not on desires.

I can only speak for my own posts, but most of the topics right now are more along the lines of "I hope (whatever) is in NBA Live 2004", as well as speculating what some of the features might be (improvements in Dynasty Mode over the old Franchise Mode, for example).
