NBA Live 10′s lead gameplay designer Mike Wang has mentioned plans for the first patch on Twitter. The patch is slated to release the first week of November. In order to meet that timetable it will probably be submitted for certification by the end of next week.

Rather than put the patch out right away EA has decided to hold back a bit to incorporate more consumer feedback. So, as I did with my impressions, there is the opportunity to express your thoughts on issues and possibly see them acted upon.

The manual backdown mechanic has been confirmed ready for the patch. Hopefully there will be some adjustments to the contact animations when shooting in traffic and improvements made to fast breaks. Feel free to discuss what you would like to see in the first patch for NBA Live 10 in the comments.

    I don't have to much trouble with posting up, you just have to be gentle with the joystick until your player starts backing down, but Id welcome a a manual post up control. I really have a gripe with the amount of contact on drives to the hoop. I feel its IMPOSSIBLE to get an easy layup, which is both a good and a bad thing. Additionally with the amount of contact on drives to the hoop id either like to see more fouls called or defenders not make so much contact on the shooter.

    Pasta, I know this is off topic, but do you have any info on the 2nd Madden patch that is supposed to focus on gameplay fixes? Is there a possibility that it doesn’t come out and we have Madden’s finished product for this year now?

      As far as I know they're working towards that patch. Haven't heard expectations on when it'll arrive.

    its minor…but the Lakers dont have that type of shot clock anymore( the 4 corner), they have the new ones, like boston, and chicago do. and the PLAYOFF logo on the floor, why is there a WHITE background??? there is no white behind the lettering. this is minor stuff, but, the realer, the better.

    I got some in the online game I was playing, probably due to user error leaving lanes open, but offline everything seems to end up in those contact animations which is the issue I have.

    There is some thing where when big men get the ball, they just randomnly lose handle of it, but besides that everything seems fine so far. Every exhibition game is not a playoff game either. I want to play in a regular atmosphere online sometimes. Its a great game, so far though. Complaints are minimal.

    Play a couple of games online and have already seen a BIG cheese exploit. I would love to see the off the ball player lock while on offense taken out of the online games. In 2 straight games I played my opponent would take control of Lebron James off of the ball, run towards the rim, call for a pass, and either dunk it or lay it in….. I tried mixing up defenses, hanging out under the hoop with a big man, etc, but in one game out of 39 1st half points, Lebron had 36, and 34 were scored in the paint…..NOT FUN

    I saw some pretty crazy simmed scores (really high, and really low) in Dynasty mode and have heard that there's some crazy A.I. trading going on in Dynasty as well. Have you experienced any of this? Just got a chance to play a little before going to work and did see some simmed scores that were really high 140-130 and really low, but that was just one night of games. Wanted to know if the forums are popping up with any other Dynasty issues that could be fixed in a patch.

      Anthony was traded to the Cavs for LeBron.

      I was shocked seeing it and i restarted Dynasty -_-

    Seen some odd hicups here and there…when in the replay mode mid game…the game locked up and i couldn't exit…only hide and unhide the menu…had to restart. (only happened once so far)

    Also playing from the HD twice its gotten fudged up and was pausing every 2-3 seconds and again had to restart to fix it….actually just did a rematch and it went away.

    I have no problem backing defenders down…not sure what the complaint is on that? I have noticed I can't get through the lane without getting knocked around and on several attempts a foul should have been called but wasn't. The CPU seems to cut through the lane without any problems so I'm not sure if I'm just not adjusted to this years game or not.

    Lastly, the cpu makes all the contended shots while i can't make some of the easy jumpers…again the game is a bit different and the release point of the shots is different but the contested shots all fall for the cpu with contact…if I have contact….forget it….not going in.

    I am liking it better than 2K though….and I have a lot of issues with that game….still like it a lot…but actually liking live better this year.

    Doesn't everyone cheese in EVERY online sport game? If you don't play someone you know you're pretty much bound to run in to cheesers constantly. That's why I stopped playing sports games online a long time ago unless it's with someone I know. Why people feel the need to cheat is beyond me.

    I'd like to see the instant replay indicator back, so I can just click the right trigger stick.

    Game speed needs to be slowed down a little so the animations branch out better and you see less herky jerky motions.

    There needs to be more stats in the game itself. If someone scores, or has been scoring a lot, a stat should show up telling you how many points he has.

    On the player of the game indicator, show his current statistics for that game.

    Commentators are drowned out by the arena and music volume. I had to readjust this, but still, there are still some instances where the crowd is too loud to even understand what the commentators are saying.

    Too many blocks (can be adjust with sliders) but still, there are too many out the box, even though it feels good getting them, but frustrating getting blocked from behind by Jason Kidd when you're slamming it hard with Andrew Bynum

    The early anticipation rebound is still slightly evident (not like last year pre-patch) but if that could be tackled more than great.

    Less little injuries in the game. They are too frequent.

    sim stats needs to be touched up. scores range from highs of 120+ to lows of 60 per game. the AI needs a better trade logic….I don't want to see the cavs trade LBJ during my franchise

    Hello Pastapadre.
    Can you confirm if a fix for player lock will be in the first patch? Thank you.

    • padua5

      Seconded. The player lock feature being broken is hugely dissapointing.
