Check out the vid on Gamespot. The producer of NCAA 09 mentions a patch will be coming out next month for Live to fix some issues. All he said was next month so lets be patient.

I think we've been more than patient thus far with Live 09. I don't know about you, but my patience is starting to wear thin. It's starting to look like Live 09 was an unfinished product that was rushed to production. The fact that they still used the same player ratings since Live 07 suggests incompetence and laziness on EA's part.

Also NONE of the issues that the patch is suppose to "fix" should even have been in the final-released version of the game. Some of the stuff we're seeing are things I expect to see in a beta phase of the game.

Don't get me wrong, I like this game (after doing gameplay settings editing)....but it still doesn't excuse EA for another year of half-assing it with their NBA game.

Speaking as a long time customer (18+ years).....unless they (the NBA Live Team) change things next year, they're not getting my $60 anymore.

Thanks for the update though. I've just had it with the excuses from EA.

ncaa 09 may be better since it had extra developement time

Forgive if I am late to the party but what is the patch going to fix? I have not spend a lot of time with Live 09. I have played random games here and there so I am not as familair with the bugs or problems with the games as others are.

we already know that the patch has been submitted as stephenson has told us this and that its out of EA's hands at this point.

It took PS3 users to get the demo 3 weeks after the xbox version dropped.

We'll see what happens but if its out of EA's hands what can they do?

thanks for the update KD. Any idea when it was submitted?

Not exactly pinpoint but its been within the last week or so from what was said that we've known about it.

(shrug) Nobody knows - apparently it's some sort of big secret.

The EA Developers who routinely post on here (and we appreicate that very much) for some strange reason have not said what is in the patch. (Or if they did mention it, I haven't seen it).

I have no idea why they can't divulge the info. My guess is that it doesn't addess the main gripes we have had, and they don't want to open that can of worms. I couldn't blame them if that's the case. I'm sure that's not their decision.

LMAO!! They can try doing it right the first time around!!

It's a good game of NBA ball though...better than 2K in some aspects but more attention to detail is needed within the ranks of EAs NBA team & with a few upgrades/minor fixes I'd say we'll have our ULTIMATE NBA game next year coming straight from the studios of Electronic Arts!!
NO KIDDING!!
I really think this DNA is the future of
SPORTS GAMING!!

I'm addicted...

...want to or not, the worms will be opened once our PS3's begin the patchs downloading process!!

...& if it doesn't address the MAIN GRIPES we've had about this game than the folks at E-Arts are a bunch of turkeys/ostrich that should keep their heads buried underneath the sand where it's been for the past 4 years!!
