The WNBA Joins NBA LIVE 18

It didn't work on FIFA where women are at least better ok watch (World Cup) why would they waste time and resources on the fucking WNBA.

Yeah, and I'm sure all 10 of them will buy it.

>NBA2k has all time classic teams, international teams and even the dream team
>NBA Live has WNBA

Boy I wonder who's gonna win this one

>caring about EA niggerball, handegg, and divegrass
This board is real video games, not casualized sports trash.

I can't even name a single WNBA athlete.

I mean, nice PR move and all, but they could have spent that effort into something people actually care about.

I'll probably never use it, but if it's something they add into the game for free how could you complain? If they make it DLC and try to charge for it, it'll be pretty funny to see how it won't sell for shit.

>>386038120
No. If they did they would have their own game, noone will play as the women just like Fifa

That's because they release a new divegrass every year, sometimes 2 in a year if it's the world cup. Just because it sells well and is very popular, doesn't mean it's good.

>>386038661
Its funny when the star players in the WNBA go sign with European and Russian leagues. They get paid more and have a bigger audience. WNBA is a joke. College women's basketball had like 5x the about of fans. I don't think I've seen a sold out WNBA game in over a decade. College games sell out all the time.

the league needs a massive overall. it's not dying because it's women, it's failing because they refuse to make adjustments to make it more entertaining. even the NFL realized bans on inzone celebrations was a stupid idea, and have lifted penalties this upcoming season.

wnba needs to:
-lower rim from 10 to perhaps 8(only a handful of women can dunk right now, this is unacceptable for such a flashy sport)
-lower shotclock to increase pace
-pull 3 point line in some more
-stop making the most manly looking woman the face of your sport
-get a qt that can shoot 3s and ship her the way NBA ships curry
-create fake drama(this works for the nba with certain players have so-called "beef" with each other)
-create better team rivalries
-better ad promotions that don't feature a bunch of 5 foot nothing girls throwing up layups
-get some bad girls that are in the news constantly for doing stupid shit(draws attention to the sport)
-just get a lot more attention on the sport because both good and bad press is reminding people that your shit league even exist
-do a better job of letting people know when games are on tv, and how they can purchase tickets
-schedule that shit better for when people have literally nothing else they could be doing
-get some retired NBA players to coach teams
if they don't make changes, that shit is dead before 2030.

I know this is bait, but I would love to see how long it would take for you to git gud at 2K.

>>386038830
live a shit. the only way it can compete is to release during way earlier than 2k, or way later. either way, it's going to do poorly because everyone wants to play 2k.

>game will probably be 50gb of uncompressed data
>throwing another 30gb on top of that for female shit
EA needs to stop trying with basketball. they pulled a dick moved and blocked other developers from using NFL teams, so they should just stick with madden and forget the NBA exist.

>pirating FM

FM is basically playing as the manager.

You build squads and then rage at your incompetent squad.

>>386059326
it's not bait, more like ignorance. these shitheads likely played a basketball game in 98 or some shit, so they think nba games are on that level.

any random anon from this board would be lucky to score even 5 points on hall of fame difficulty, but they proclaim the game is casual shit.

community wise how are the older games when a new 2k game comes out? can you still get online matches easy. i kinda wanna try one out, maybe 17 if i can get it cheap. i know 18 is out in september but i dont wanna pay full price for it incase im not to into the series.

2. only niggers and white trash even remotely care about NBA games, let alone the SPORTS genre

He should just stay in Cleveland. It's gonna be his team when LeBron starts to noticeably decline, probably in 2 years.

I'm just happy Knicks didn't jump at the opportunity and trade future assets. It would be Melo 2.0 again.

Holy shit, I honestly thought Live stopped making games after like 07.

>yfw waking up to find the knicks traded melo and porizingis for kyrie, shumpert, smith and future draft picks
rocketfag here. I'm sort of hoping melo decides to come play for a season or two, just to see how deep we could go. but I'll be mad as fuck if we give up clint capela. that dude is the future.

just a reminder why live failed so long ago. this video killed all momentum they had.

Not really, no. I live in MN and the team here has won three titles since 2011 and most people have zero clue. The only people who follow them or go to games are turbonerds or guys I know that are pussywhipped by their fat girlfriends.

In all seriousness If Live could come out with a better archetype system and better online play for it then I'll be all for it as long as the gameplay is solid. I don't give a fuck about what meme teams that tack on.

No need to be ignorant just because you're a friendless unathletic NEET who didn't grow up being active in any way. Plenty of sports game are fantastic (The Show, NBA 2K, NCAA Football, may it rest in peace) if you get over your SO YOU BE SAYIN' IT'S THE SAME GAME SINCE 2006?! attitude. I'm not saying buying the same sports title every year is wise but doing it every other year or so is usually a safe bet.

My local team was the Sacramento Monarchs and they just disbanned by the old owners.

It's funny because woman typically miss about 80% of their shots.
