Hey Steph or anyone else who can answer this .... when the DNA updates through out the season do i have to quit my Franchise to get the latest updates?..or will the DNA update during my Franchise as well? i hated starting over whenever there was a trade or something new developed

I don't get how this would work. You don't want to have trades happen during your franchise? Let's say someone like Dwight Howard gets traded to the kings (just an example) and you are controlling the magic, but you already traded him to another team. What would happen?

Jose dunked twice last year....both very soft dunks as well. The 3 prior seasons with the Raptors he never dunked once and that last clip is when Jose was much yonger. When Live 09 first came out Jose would dunk waaaaaaay to much. Then, Steph went in and fixed in a manual roster update.

I think the only way it could be done is to have a "DNA Franchise" option...

You would play your franchise mode as normal. But trades and all that stuff are turned off.

You're franchise simply follows the daily DNA updates.

I know it has it's short comings but I think it would add a bit of continuity that exhibition games just can't give you.

I for one would love the challenge of having to deal with the trades and form slumps that inevitably arise. Mainly because it reflects real life and is not just a made up scenario.

What if you were to use that "DNA Franchise" option, and simulated like 2 years forward? Shaq has retired in your game, but maybe not in real life and he got traded.

nice news...... i already had an idea had the dna work but its good that you guys cleared it up for the people who didnt quite understand how it works..

glad to see little bit of info each week... it keeps people tuned in and it keeps you safe from leaking out too much info to the competition

cant wait to play nba live 10 demo!

Yeah, that's the problem with the idea of a "DNA franchise".

It wouldn't really be a proper "franchise" mode would it.

I still think it would be a valid and fun way of incorporating DNA into the single player portion of the game. Certainly better than just isolated exhibition games.

Yes but the point is he CAN dunk so having him NEVER dunk is also incorrect.
