Good post trade deadline update, that was quick......as it should be.

Maybe this will fix the roster updating practically every other time I boot up the game. That gets old real quick. Sometimes it even adds the last 3 updates. Ridiculous.

For those not aware, they also finally included the beautiful City courts with this latest patch! Surprised this was not mentioned in the patch notes!!

Great job being on top of this....since Live has been back it's taken almost a month to update after the deadline.

It appears we also now have in game injuries. It can be toggled in the settings menu.

Well since they are putting so much effort into this game now so late, it is safe to say there will definitely be a NBA Live 20. Just wish they did all this stuff on DAY ONE.

So will we finally now see players actually getting injured in game. where a player rolls his ankle and we see him limping up the court with the injured symbol next to his name. Or is it still the same when you sim through a game only to find out a player is injured on your team without actually witnessing it in game. That's what I hope they mean by in-game injures.

This forum is so dead that people don't even realize what just happened. Real in game injuries are now in the game where people clutch their ankles or legs, etc. in game. Twitter videos have confirmed.
How are the rotations looking? I bought 2k just because Live wasn't updating rosters or rotations

Live is taking the I'm going to sneak up and punch you write in the throat approach. I gotta admit this game is definitely getting there.
I dont think it is people just watching more behind the scenes now. I know I am.

LEEETTTSSS GOO!!!
Thank you NBA LIVE Team!

The rotations are still kind of wrong, especially with some teams. The canned animations are still there. Jump pass steals is too over done too. Some players jump high and far to steal a pass. It is literally the same animation that happen in Madden 19. The defender don't be near the player you passing to, but they warp over there and jump high up to snatch it out of the air like it is an interception. There seem to be more instances of phantom blocks and fouls on driving layups. You watch the instant replay and there is no contact. But yet a block happens or a foul is called. Had me scratching my head like how ??

Had Jimmy Butler in the 4th quarter driving in the lane for a layup and got popped. He kind of flipped over in the air (I've never seen this animation before). He gets up grabbing his shoulder.
A box came up and said Upper Body Injury.
He was automatically subbed out and Ben Simmons took the FTs in his place.
I looked to sub Butler back in but his name didn't show up.

Wow! Have the footage by chance?

So I haven't played Live in a couple of months. How's the gameplay looking now? Safe to assume they never added any animations?

Gotmadskillzson 02-12-2019 03:36:47 PM (EDT)

The gameplay is still the same. Only difference is you can get injured in game now. But the offball movement and floor spacing is still terrible. The fast break dribble animation is terrible and cartoony looking. The over the top blocks are still in the game.
