Yeah me too i got Choops 2k7 this past Sat after selling it initially.

I'm playing MM07 now and am starting to like it

Gameplay

Current camera angle:
Classic
Pitch 3
zoom 10(or all the way up)
contrast setting:
(which helps with the framerate as the more brighter the game is the more you see of the crowd and that just adds to how much the engine has to render along with the court action)
Brightness 4
Contrast 3

I HAVE to turn ANY CPU defending down as I'm constantly fouling and always giving up shooting fouls. Not good so i tweaked those to zero(for now)

gameplay is starting to feel better. theres not that many moves or anything but it's a either a goodbasic run/gun and shoot/defend game.
Passing is kinda wonky. YUP WONKY. I mean the passes are usally just plopped into the players hands so unnaturally that when you post up it's just this mish mosh of animations. Some are cool some are bad. this game is actually played best by just slowing down YOUR/users playing style to amore strategic as the run/gun just because a race back n forth.


The sliders are pretty scarce though so any tweaks have to come from the editing of the players individual stats(ARGHH a pain)

The game feels much more sim than i thought it's just that the moves are basic. Every jumper only has about 3 animations. the fall back the off balance and the str jumper. layups have more variety and the dunks are nice but it's not like it is in CHoops 2k7(then again i wasn't expecting it to be and NEITHER was I wanting it to be)

Third, his impressions were only that the ball physics weren't up to par and the camera angles were lacking. Then Tomba went on to say this before i could even have the thought about my Visual Concepts comment: Framerate issues: yes, but there are other things that make it not so cool. Multi player franchise: I don't know. Simmed games. I don't know (these are like un gameplay question though that you have to go and specifically tryout) It makes me wonder if the guy even has the game or is just bashing the game for the sake of bashing it b/c it's either an EA game or just not College Hoops. If you don't like my posts, then don't read them. I'll offer my impressions when i get my copy this evening.

No worries, with an attitude like that, you won't be here long enough to start stuff. Keep on keepin' on brother.
