Season 3 Bug/Glitch Thread

[betaman411]

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Back in the gg days , people said the scores were legit when both users were aware of them.

EA may do some questionable stuff, but that would be too easy to find if it was lie.

also, 37 pts in a 13-24 is nothing extraordinary. In s2 I've had a 26-18 (44) playing with disadvantage and without abilities in my team - https://i.imgur.com/E68Fcvk.png - and would still lose \_(?)_/

+1...I've also had plenty of 40-44 pt quarters. When the margin is greater than 15 though, I start to question the available possession time.

Anyone confirm if the lvl glitch was fixed?

What's the biggest margins u have had this season.. i think I have had a 20 margin once.. Been beaten 21-0 also once

23-0 was my biggest margin this season. Scored 26 once but they scored 5.

I've had a 22-0 in SD.

I believe the Highest margin in LvL was 27-8 in the second quarter of the first tournament, thanks to the shooting percentages that meant guaranteed shots. At least it was the highscore and by far.

I don't think i had scored more than 24 in a Lvl quarter in the whole season 2.

I still have no idea what is the trigger. Sometimes I'm having it. Sometimes not.

It's usually in non-competitive tournaments - i.e. only 1 of five opponents playing the quarters - that I'm getting this.

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

did anyone else randomly get rewarded with 100 Cash today?? I'm not complaining, but I'm certain I haven't logged in 14 days in a row (which is the reward for doing so if you check franchise manager under achievements).

I wonder if maybe they sent them out early to EVERYONE? No way they'd do that right??? Who knows.

My other guess is that even though it says I have 2 more days to reach 14, maybe it counted the days when I tried to log it but it said maintenance while others were able to log in. I wasn't able to start the season until I just happened to check the store for an update. It used to tell you when you open the app that an update was needed.

Everyone should have got 200 with 100 being for no reason and 100 for logging in for 14 days <I>which isn't possible yet</I>

By EA math, Monday at 7pm EST was technically 14 straight logins. The day the new season dropped (9/5) they gave us 2 login credits and then 12 days from there (9/17) gets you to 14.

I'm pretty sure I've been on day 13/14 for at least 24 hours now...according to the franchise manager. I just wanna be able to upgrade Embiid for goodness sakes lol, just trying to add a crumb to my lineup

When you get it, is it the entire match or just certain shots? I know in some of the live events with Trae Young and others it will say the shot is 100%....simply because your teams overall is muuuuuch higher than the opponent. Same thing with the legacy campaign. Their numbers are just so high and the opponents defense is so low it says 100.

It might be similar result in LvL is say you had a 79-82 line up vs a 57.

yeah, my first guess when this issue emerged was also assuming that it was a matter of advantages like in live events, but it shouldn't be the case.

today it was a 80 vs 74. The 27-8 of the first day was a 73 vs 67. So it's not a gap as wide as the live events.

It affects the whole quarter but if your shot isn't good it won't be 100%. In today's quarter I took a contested shoot with Covington and got 50 sth % and missed.

In the other quarter, playing the same opponent, the percentages were the normal ones. and I actually ended with a better margin than the first \_(?)_/

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

As this page is getting longer and longer, our "official EA employee" hasn't been on this site for 13 days.. wonder he knows if there's this many problems/if he even plays this game actually like one of us...?

Glad to see SD stamina finally has changed, but as much as other people talked about saying "it will take more than maintainence" it was pretty simple update. So.. I'm curious why they can't fix other issues "easily"? or what made them fix it so "quick"?

It seems like only more questions come up instead of answers..

at least it's not as one sided and cut throat as last NBALM forum with previous mods..

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Also, the match history for showdown is NOT always accurate. At least, for me and I'd imagine it happens to others. Watch carefully. I have an opponent I faced hours ago near the top along with opponents I played minutes ago.

Match history never had a proper order since the release of showdown in s2. But It would be better if it wasn't as random as it seems to be

Also, while we had seasons with two weeks, at some point some matches wouldn't be listed anymore, I think it was around 8 days after the match. But now that seasons will be only one-week-long, that 'inaccuracy' is gone.

It looks like match history is a recent history but if you close the app or have a bit of time between matches it changes to inaccurate. I've just lost 8 in a row, 3 of which were to the same person (thanks EA) and all 8 were at the top of match history.

I have played a lot of matches today, at least 30 and twice has the opponent been rated at 78 or below. 78 is my rating. I guess it makes sense from EA's perspective. Continuously shovel higher opponents on people to push us to spend more money in the store....while all the 80 and aboves feast on people like me and it's justified because they have bought the mega packs. Right?

If i get to opp many below me and win and maybe get an elite reward, where's the motivation to buy one? Sucks for me though....because I still won't buy the mega packs they advertise. Maybe if I lower my OVR it will help..? I'm tired of getting stomped repeatedly

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Well, decided to spend 200K rep on showdown packs since I figure i'll lower my OVR but at least I'll have multiple fan boost players. Got mediocre gold players, no surprise there. Wasn't expecting elites or anything.

Plugged in the players and lineup went from 78 to 75! Press play and of course my first match is with an 80 OVR. I predictably get destroyed as if nothing changed at all lol. Guess I'll keep donating stamina and wins lol. I still can't believe I played 5 matches and 3 of them were the same person. Oh well. Good luck all

Yeah, I went back to my original lineup after a game. I figured maybe in some way that they make you play higher OVR as you get higher a higher OVR. It might be the higher tier, I'm guessing because I have just consistently been getting 79-81 with occasionally 82. I'm 78.

The scores: Even though I'm usually lower than opp by 2+ points, I usually manage to outscore them by 4-8 on my end. Usually 18-10, 10-6, 16-8, like that. However, my AI usually loses 20-9, 16-11, 18-7 like that.

My team : https://imgur.com/a/v2prAKA

Both big men have the rim protector and I really had hopes that pushing Embiid from 76 to 78 would help somehow, if at least boosting me to 79, but not yet.

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Team looks solid enuf.. but u have to make a choice between winning matches and scoring with ur pg.. u need a tall pg (like Ben) who is weak at manual offence but will improve ur AI scores.. or if ur sticking with Eric u need to improve ur stealing and defence to get atleast +10 margins or atleast +7 to get wins..

Dont spend too much on ur centre/pf unless u use them a lot for 3s as they rarely factor into AI...

I will swap Eric and Rubio, maybe that will help the AI. I'll take any win right now over points by a particular player. Getting steals is one thing I think I'm good at usually, but half the time the AI catches up and forces a crazy shot, or the player misses the open dunk point blank.

Offensive rebounds are killer. I can make them miss the first shot, but the rebound goes to them over half the time, and I can sometimes make them miss the 2nd put back shot, but the 3rd one is usually a guaranteed bucket.

I've alternated between using auto switch and manual switch. I think auto is best for me, defense is usually solid until the rebound needs to be grabbed.

Gonna swap Kawhi to starting and have Ingram on the bench (Kawhi's still at 75, with stats that are worse than Ingram but he's an elite so maybe that will help the AI)..

Both Eric and Ingram can hit a decent percentage of 3's with space, so it helps on my end, but I like your suggestion on changing for the AI's results. We will see how it goes

Do you have any suggestions on how to improve defense/steals/rebounding??

 

[jack_george]

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

First match, vs an 79 all elites. I won my qtr 18-4, they won 8-4. Hope it's a sign of things to come, lol. I'll take 8-4 loss by AI everyday lol,

Eric actually has a higher on ball defense and steal rating but that quarter might have been the best defense i've had in quite a while. I guess having Leonard helped as well. As I said, his raw stats aren't really all that high, in fact lower than my other SFs on the bench but maybe he gets a hidden boost since he's elite?

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

It?s hard enough getting to 1.5m fans in 2 weeks, how are supposed to do it in 1? People have lives, surely that will change. But probably with 4 hours to go before the season ends.

stick with Eric, don't try dunks unless ur completely open.. even then layups are the way to go till we get high elites

Offensive rebounds are killer. I can make them miss the first shot, but the rebound goes to them over half the time, and I can sometimes make them miss the 2nd put back shot, but the 3rd one is usually a guaranteed bucket.

speciality of NBA live mobile.. nothing u can do.. can try for

manual defense is the way to go.. but if ur really struggling with defense then ya autoplay is fine.. problem is the AI will waste a lot of time

Gonna swap Kawhi to starting and have Ingram on the bench (Kawhi's still at 75, with stats that are worse than Ingram but he's an elite so maybe that will help the AI)..

havent played with Ingram, but Kawhi is great at defense and the occasional 3

Both Eric and Ingram can hit a decent percentage of 3's with space, so it helps on my end, but I like your suggestion on changing for the AI's results. We will see how it goes

take most of ur 3s with harden.. Ingram and Eric only if harden is missing or if they are open

Do you have any suggestions on how to improve defense/steals/rebounding??

defense main thing is slow down ur movement.. dont spam the steal or guard button.. try practicing moving with the joystick on defense rather than the guard button.. I find it helps

I appreciate all of the advice. I would like to think some of it will help, eventually. I went 4-11 with the changes. It's beyond frustrating. The computer will take the ball if it wants to take the ball, whether it be offensive rebounds, missing 3 69 % 3's from Harden in a row with space, or whatever method they choose. As you said, "Specialty of NBA Live Mobile"

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Lol computer so overpowered that the only way to win the quarter is to match every one of their 2s with a 3.

edit: won 4 of my last 21 games.....you can have this battle showdown....(and the next one, and the next one, and the next one after that)

 

[jack_george]

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Underrated tip: turn the shot feedback off in preferences. You still have the shot bar, but now you don't have to see it say the computer made a "lucky shot " or you don't have to know that the layup you missed was a "rare miss" or the 70% 3 miss etc etc. it's better, still rage but rage much less
