Live 06 Bug List

Talk about NBA Live 06 here.

Minor but slightly wierd bug:

When playing against the Spurs in the playoffs, Tim Duncan picked up an injury (broken foot). His injury status was out. And yet when I started the game, there he was on the court!! Its was TD, except on the stats, and when he got the ball and his player indicator came up, officially he was Nazr Mohommad. And I'm pretty sure he played to Nazr's ratings. The next game, everything went back to normal, and Timmys injury prevented him from playing, and Nazr from wearing a Timmy mask.

Like I said, pretty minor, but for about 5 minutes I was wondering what the hell was going on!

Is there some sort of secret to shooting that I haven't figured out in this years edition? I have the NLSC roster update so naturally the shooting attributes have been decreased (or so I'd imagine, didn't even bother to check the EA ratings before installing the update) to make gameplay more challenging.

What bugs me though, is now pretty much any and all scoring I do is from posting up, free throws and fast break dunks. Mid-range jumpers and threes seem impossible to hit, evn with decent shooters (eg. Nash, James Jones, Paul Pierce, Dirk). Granted I've only played a couple of games so far of this years edition (on superstar though), live and learn & so forth, but it seems to me that CPU defenders always find a way to challenge shots even when they don't seem very near until just as my player goes up and the shot ends up poorly released. I tried decresing the poor shot release slider but even that didn't really help. On the other hand, the CPU doesn't seem too bothered in hitting shots when I'm challenging.

Putting up 100 vs. Dallas (with Phoeinx) in my first full game isn't necessarily bad, but having avidly played the previous NBA Live games as well I'm having a hard time understanding why it's suddenly so hard to hit even open midrange jumpers and threes with good shooters. Of all my points, I hit only one midrange jumper and one three. All the others were free throw and dunk/layup points. Is it just me sucking, or has EA once again had one of it's brainfarts and decided "instead of making the AI better, lets just make gameply more difficult by adding new controls!" like it's done with the NHL series and Madden.

Is there suddenly something more to basic shooting than just holding down the shoot-button and releasing? Or do I just suck and have to stick to dunking?

I dont have much of a problem with mid-range jump shots and 3 pointers. Of course I miss the shots where a defender is in my face but if I run a screen-type play, go around the screen pull up and shoot, it goes in most of the time because I'm open and my player's a good shot.

If it's you sucking, then when you're shooting, hold the shot button until the guy reaches the highest point of his jump and then release

this never used to be a problem before, but actually I did notice that I let the shot button go a bit early. Gotta chalk this one down to not playing for many months, since it's not like I'd never plyed Live on superstar and NLSC rosters before. Still bugged by CPU nailing more contested shots, but I'll live.

Turnovers

Postby writh_ziden on Tue Dec 27, 2005 1:46 am

I am really surprised that turnovers still occur for the team that deflects the ball out of bounds while on defense. I'm even more surprised that since Live 2005, blocks out of bounds are now a turnover for the defense again. In 2005, blocks were not an issue, though the deflections were. Sometimes I wonder if EA keeps putting bugs into the game so that we go out and buy the latest version just to see if they fixed the previous year's bugs. They certainly haven't fixed all the bugs from even as early as NBA Live '96

Commentry :

1. Anyone noticed how they keep saying that a "bench player" is coming off the bench for the first time, when its really his 2nd or 3rd time off the bench....this bug was still there last year...and no one noticed it ?? WOW ! do they ever play the game once before sending it to the stores ??

2. They never say names of Rookies after the 1st year's dynesty...I heat to hear them being called "Number 13" , "Nuber 99"...this was there too last year, and they didnt fix it...i mean come one this is 2005....

I MEAN COME ON..DOESNT ANYBODY COMPLAIN ?? DOESNT ANY OF OUR VOICES EVER REACH TO THEM ?? OR THEY JUST DONT GIVE A FUK ABOUT US ?? COME ON...WE ARE THE ONES WHO PAY FOR THE GAMES....AND THATS HOW THEY GET PAID....

^^ :lol:
Try posting in EA/Live 06 forums so the game creators can directly read that rage post of yours. :lol:
The complaints and gripes do reach EA (somehow). It's a mystery on what they do about it.

For 360 TD waterhouse looks like MSG. Its look like it could be a development glitch, because the court says TD waterhouse and the announcers say the name but the likness doesn't resemble the building.

PC version - anyone noticed that when a shot is blocked it often counts as 2 FG attempts in the stats.

ive been playing nba live since 1995 and i always find a weak point in the ai of the computer...i dont really knw where to post this one so chose this ..oh well..try this move on a player with a pretty decent fg or 3pt rating den do a very quick o pump fake before the shot and the computer will not contest the shot..a pretty good move but maybe ull find the game boring if u do this too often coz it makes the game very easy.. u guys think its a bug??

Still has a bug like 04 and 05 and it is: When the ball goes out of bounds, the out of bounds decision won't be decided immediately. If u touch the ball out of bounds it says "out of bounds" after for 3-4 seconds. It's very stupidly...

I found a bug for the ps2 version of the game. After you create about your 30th player, when you go to type in the players birthplace it always says Cancoun and you cant change it.

How do you get to that streetball mode?


Anyway, I just had that overtime bug where the view goes way out like in the stands and stays there. I ended up beating the Clippers, 117-111 in OT, but it was really really annoying. I was like 1-4 from that view, and it was a jam by Amare. The other points I got were free throws. But I couldn't see a damn thing on the other end of the court, so i just kept hitting the jump button, hoping for a rebound :P

i had some bug in an online game using the sixers against the rockets where the speech id was all screwed up. yao and korver were announced by jersey numbers, t-mac was announced as greg ostertag, iggy was announced as jon barry, and dalembert was announced as james cotton (who the hell is that). maybe its just something that goes on in online play.
