well, us PC users won't have March Madness, so I hope there is a way to edit upcoming rookies before the draft so we can see real names.

One of the early IGN previews mentioned in-game injuries. If you attempt a dunk in traffic, you stand a chance of injuring your player.

NBA Records

Postby alexlive on Fri Sep 26, 2003 3:26 pm

In dynasty mode, is it possible to scale the NBA Records to different quarter and season lengths? For example, Chaimberlin's 100pt game record in 12 min quarters will be a 25 point game in a 3min/quarter season. So can I break the record with a player scoring 25 points?

Thanks,
Alex[/img]

No point in doing one now. It's too close to the release of the game, so anything we find out from the interview we'll already know. Besides, a lot of people found last year's interview uninformative and even described it as being "patronising", even though the questions were taken from the community.

Really, I remember that interview--you opened this site with that. I thought it was a great addition! I just wanted to know what the differences between the PC and consoles were this year? Oh well, we will find out soon enough. :wink:

I doubt it. That way, I can just get my guy to score 10 points in 1 min/quarter game and it will be counted as 120 points

Yeah, I launched the new design with the interview. To be fair, it probably didn't ask as many "big" questions as it could have, but I was surprised by the negative feedback given that I asked questions that were submitted by the community.

i just hope the ea sports ticker isn´t as lame as it is in nhl 2004. it only has the most basic info, no details at all and takes forever to read. in nhl they also got rif of trade/injury summary screens and box scores, which sux big time. so my hopes are with nba live now.

Personally, that doesn't excite me - March Madness isn't available in Australia, so I can't take advantage of that feature.
