Am I the only one annoyed with Live's roster management?

jsquigg · 11-02-2009, 05:33 PM

Keep in mind that in spite of my criticism, I do enjoy this game. With that said, I was led to believe that Live's rosters would be accurate to a tee only to find that they get the starters wrong in rewind games on top of getting them wrong in NBA today games. On top of that, ratings again dictate playing time. No matter who starts, if they are worse than a bench player at the same position they will get subbed out at the first dead ball.
Like I said, I enjoy the game and can work around it, but you'd think they could get this right with DNA.

iminurbase said in another thread that the alien players and that weirdness will be fixed tonight (it was supposed to be the 30th but got pushed back). I think that's the first REAL update we've had with tendencies and whatnot.

EA needs to get thigns straight, really need to improve this, the raptors lineup was all messed up, david west is a smallforard, and the secodnary position needs to be fixed too, wtf? REGGIE EVANS A SF? demar derozen is a sg/sg, he ain't a PG, sonny weems? pg?? wtf!/

Like this? I cant lol

But yeah, hopefully everything is fixed tonight...
The DNA is supposed to be the standard in roster updates, If everythings not fixed by the end of this week, id definitely be dissapointed....well see

Wonder how many of you played 09. They are at it the whole year as far as DNA updates. Its the best roster management so far in any basketball game. There are invisible glitchy players running around but for how long? 10 days. DNA updates fix stuff like that where prior to DNA something like that (or changing appearances) would take a patch.

With tonights update being the first real DNA update as well as the roster fixer, things should be looking up. The complete lack of rotation control forcing you to manual sub, well that is different.

I know in 09 the generic players got replaced so I hope guys like Lester Hudson get models that resemble them and Cuttino Mobley gets taken off of the game.

That's my biggest gripe with rosters from NBA Live.

Imo, it may be the best way to handle roster management in theory, but so far, im definitely not seeing it in deed...hopefully this changes...

No one's complaining about who is on what roster, it's mainly about rotations and who plays how many minutes.

Hopefully we can set players' minutes next year.
