NBA LIVE 07 To Feature All-New Dynasty Mode
NBA LIVE 07 To Feature All-New Dynasty Mode On Next Gen NBA LIVE 07 will introduce its deepest and most complex Dynasty Mode™ ever and the fan-favorite feature will debut on Xbox 360. Dynasty Mode allows you to take charge of your favorite team by becoming GM and experience the challenge of managing team chemistry throughout the season. Scout players, propose trades and investigate rumors to keep your team on track from the NBA Draft to the NBA Finals. The 25 year long Dynasty Mode reflects the complexity of running an NBA LIVE franchise and includes a complete pre-season, regular season, and post-season. Dynasty Mode™ has been in the Current Gen version of NBA LIVE for several years, maturing into a solid and deep game mode. It is one of the game’s most popular features. This legacy will debut on the Xbox 360 with a Next Gen look and feel, and with a number of new features for 07. “The goal was to put as much depth in this game as one year of development would allow us to, and we are extremely happy with what we have been able to accomplish,” said NBA Live producer Tim Tschirner. “We truly feel that this is the best Dynasty Mode in the history of NBA LIVE.” Here are some of the top new features of Dynasty Mode in NBA LIVE 07: Team Chemistry: The Team Chemistry logic allows you to build and maintain a roster where players get along well on and off the court. As a GM, you can monitor their satisfaction level in all critical areas, and make the necessary changes to ensure that they do not want to leave the team. Having high Team Chemistry has a tangible impact on Gameplay and on the Simulation engine, so all your hard work will be rewarded by more wins. The Assistant Head Coach: The new staff member was added this year to help you research team-specific rumors and schedule off-day events. Researching Rumors is critical because it allows you to time trades and free agent signings. You now have the ability to investigate whether the player you are interested in acquiring or signing wants to be traded and what impact he will have on your team. Off-Day Events: There are four types of Off-Day Events that your Assistant Head Coach can schedule: Team Events, Press Events, Team Practices and full days off. These four events impact your player satisfaction directly. You will have to find the right balance to keep all of your players satisfied, and thus increase the team chemistry of your team. The 2006 NBA Draft: You have the option to start your Dynasty Mode by re-living the 2006 NBA Draft. For example, if you have chosen Chicago as your franchise and would really like to have Adam Morrison on your team, now is your chance. Cross your fingers that he does not get drafted before it’s your turn to pick and select him to be the next big Superstar on your team.Source: http://www.ea.com
