Ask the devs : Controls (Offense and Defense)

Re: Ask the devs : Controls (Offense and Defense)

Can you walk the dog in Elite 11?

No you can't.

I was just going to ask. Why not? It is a part of the NBA and crucial for last second plays. Could this be added by an update or patch? And will players who have their sub called, finally get off of the bench and head to the scorers table? Thank you!

I wouldn't say crucial. I think the player I see do it the most is Rondo and I thinkhe just does it a lot to be flashy. That said. Man it would be cool.

My question about inbounding is can we make it were point guard (like Nash) will actually be moving up court right away before the pass? In 10 the PG always seem to come back and want to catch the ball at a dead stop.

Re: Ask the devs : Controls (Offense and Defense)

if it can be incorporated, i would love to see that included in the game. It may be flashy but yet it's still something that would add a touch of realism to the game.

Don't get me wrong, I think it would be a great feature and would love to have it.

It's just with all we're doing this year, features like this just didn't make the cut. We had to draw the line somewhere.

Could it be in a patch? Yeah, but I don't think it will be (although we haven't really started planning for that yet so who knows).

Personally, I'd prefer do leave it until next year and add it with a bunch of other cool inbounds options or something, but again, the plans haven't started for that either, I'm just speaking what's on my mind at the moment.

I really appreciate the honesty. Last question, I promise. LOL. Will we finally have players get injured during the game now? It was nice to add the subtly injured animations last year, but nothing at all would happen to the players. Will they now be able to miss the rest of the game etc.?

Re: Ask the devs : Controls (Offense and Defense)

Right now, no. I've discussed this a couple times, and it was also something brought up in one of the preview write ups and at the community day.

At the moment, pro hops/gathers and eurosteps cannot be slowed down or redirected by the defender. Every other move in the game can be.

This is something we plan or fixing before we ship. Gathers/Pro Hops and euros are being looked at in more depth in the next 2 weeks.

So right now, no. but it is in our plans and if everything goes smoothly I hope to come back and change that answer to a yes.

Has this situation changed for the better?

Yea, cause it sounds like it could become an exploit if nothing can stop the eurosteps

OK, good...I was trying to remember what the original question was based on my answer. Now I know

I just added this fix yesterday.

If you do a pro hop or running gather directly into your opponent and you collide with him in the first part of the animation you will be deemed "out of control" and will be called for an offensive foul.

If you are traveling away from the hoop, either by steering into a euro step or doing a pro hop to the side or back, you're safe and cannot be called for the foul (unless you do it into someone who is taking a charge).

This seems to fix the problem quite nicely.

What's the deal on the injuries?

Sounds like a good fix .. I just wanna play an exploit free game, don't know if its completely possible but I'm hoping Elite brings the competition back to online gaming

Re: Ask the devs : Controls (Offense and Defense)

rEAnimator, now I know that when moving towards the hoop that pushing up on the stick requests a player to dunk, but is it possible to limit this?

eg: I'm a Hawks fan, and we all know (and so do the player ratings) that Joe Johnson has the ability to dunk......... but he doesn't do it. I watch all hawks games, and I've probably seen him dunk say, 10 times or so in the last 5 years. NBA Live 10 does not reflect this very well. Any chances of fixing this in Elite?

Re: Ask the devs : Controls (Offense and Defense)

rEAnimator, you guys still did not add assistant coaches on the bench? These benches need to be filled out more, and maybe even have a second row like in real life!

Nothing new above and beyond what was in Live 10.

Very disappointing. I mean it really is a necessity to have this. Players get injured in games, so this really does not offer a full NBA experience. Eghh, really thought it would be a lock this year.
