NBA Live 10 News Post

Lead Gameplay Designer, Mike Wang, has just posted another NBA Live 10 blog. This one featuring dribble moves.

Quote:
"Today we’re going to talk a bit about the Dribble Moves in NBA Live 10. As you saw in Jeff’s blog, we spent a lot of time working on the ball handler’s movement this year. So as you move around the court and make hard changes of direction, your player will pull off contextual crossovers and planted turns based on which hand he’s dribbling with and where he’s trying to go. But everyone loves to pull off ankle breaking crossovers and spin moves so we had to beef up what was formerly known as “Quickstrike Ballhandling.”

So let’s start by talking about size up moves. Whenever we’re in mocap and we ask the talent to go 1-on-1, the first thing these guys always do is pull off a series of stationary dribble moves before starting their drive. These moves, or size ups as we call them, are the first step in creating space for yourself as a dribbler and getting your defender off balance."

Yep. It's one of the things I like best about our new dribble system. You can mix and match, go back and forth seamlessly between right stick moves, locomotion, and size ups. It's a pretty comprehensive move set and you can pretty much recreate anything you see on tv.

This sounds so amazing!

Will there be tutorials in the game that provide an in-depth look for things like this? Just curious..

Those are big words sir! Statements like that on OS come under fiya ya know?

LOL, I'm sure Da Czar appreciates that.

I LOVE the idea with the arrow for directional passing and how you described it (seeing their weight shift).. awesome. That should make defense and offense nicer -- you can fake them right then cross left, and it'll still help the defense sometimes, especially if you start to know their patterns (humans... unless DNA tracks this sort of thing... eh eh?).

I think he is saying the that the idea of how size-ups work in the game are flawed in regards to how they occur in real life bball. "in no way does sizing up longer give you a better chance to get to the basket in real life." I don't think he is a troll; just someone who really wants a sim bball game.

and noone said that it does...matter of fact he said it would get you ripped, and we've seen it happen so that comment was off base
