I then created 15 of the top missing guys like Zion, Ja Morant, RJ Barrett etc. I got the roster glitch after 19 guys on my first try but I might try to add some few more. Honestly though this game would be completely relevant if not for that dumb glitch. Oh well making the best out of it. Anyways started a new franchise and am having an absolute blast. Thanks for reminding me I should still play this.

That's awesome you went ahead and did that and yes, that glitch messed that up for those of us who're willing to do everything manually.

And you're welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed the article. It's been a semi-hot topic lately so I thought it would be fun to start talking about it again and how fun it was. Thanks again.

Hi there, I am doing the same and when filling in the other players, I tend to pick the best FA who actually used to play on that team, say Lou Will I put him on the Hawks, so that would make all the teams stronger...as no teams have strong rookies since after 2019

And in terms of creating players, I heard that after 5 created players or so there is a glitch, may I ask what exactly the glitch is? Is it all those created players will turn bald or something? I never heard someone is about to create 19 players, that’s a lot and if I can confirm with you that no glitch will occur till then, I will do the same man…

For the franchise mode, do CPU don’t do any trades?

Lastly, what sliders/setting are you using?

Sorry for the many words.

I used to like Live 19, then I started hating it badly. Canned uninterruptible animations like those blocked dunks and other blocks and interaction between ball handler and defender completely ruined this game. That new animation system developers implemented, in my opinion, completely ruined the game.

To me, Live 18 is miles better - far more dynamic, less canned animations, better physics, more responsive controls. With roster and slider edits it played some great basketball. Not even close.

That's what I thought for a while. And then I started to see the issues with the scripted interactions and I felt less in control in general. I've tried to play it a few times since then but could never bring myself to finish a game. Then I would shut it down and go back to 18.
