Ultimately there’s a ton of content in NBA Live 18 for basketball and NBA nuts. The WNBA is also isolated in its own separate mode of play, so checking that out and seeing how the balance is tweaked oh-so-differently is a must. You have the Ultimate Team mode that makes appearances in other games such as Madden, which lets you build a team with collectible cards as you play, as well as a more traditional and stats-y Franchise mode. Doing those same actions upgrades those abilities and they definitely impact your game.īeyond The One, you have several other play options at your disposal, most of them familiar to EA Sports veterans. Abilities are separated by League and Streets, and unlock as you complete various actions. Here you unlock more customization options (mostly sneakers and animations) and gain percentage-based stat boosts.
You get two at first, but unlock more as you go and get points to spend when you level up. Your player’s core skills are based on the “class” of sorts (Playstyle) you pick from the get go. The skill system is neat, and ultimately makes NBA Live 18 a lot more smooth as you level up your skills and subsequently your OVR rating. Based on how you answer, you’re rewarded differently, but otherwise it’s fairly dry, inconsequential writing that doesn’t really read like actual humans communicating, save for the occasional emoji. Also notable is the conversation system, which bridge events together in the form of text messages with your friends, agent, and other players. Considering you’re customizing two different sets of clothing (League and Street), getting your character set seems fun at first, but quickly becomes a drag. In the full game, the prices have increased a few fold, making the pace of new unlocks agonizingly slow. One particular snaggle point is that the NBA Live 18 demo, released a little while ago, had the loot boxes pretty affordable and constant. Each one shows you what comes in it, and they cost an in-game currency you earn by playing games. Everyone’s favorite loot box system makes an appearance here, and there are a whole ton of them to choose from as you level up. The two forces behind the campaign modes are the skill trees I mentioned earlier and a loot system that lets you continue to work on customizing your character as you play in assumed perpetuity.
