OMG this better be like a mega early build and that is so not Steve Nash shot in that video

People are saying the build is like 2-3 weeks old. With the demo dropping in like 2 weeks there is not much they can do. They gotta get it sent to Sony and Microsoft for approval.

Was the vid where boozer dunked from the free throw line removed or something, or am I just blind?

In any case, overall I am not impressed. Visuals are below average, foot planting is nearly non existent, and player specific shots(some of which were perfect in live 10)are off. I'll wait for the demo to make a more in depth judgment.

Wow can't believe that Boozer almost warped and dunked from the FT line. Was the game speed increased? Also, the players were jumping too high. I think I'll wait for the demo.

At first I thought elite would be better after seeing this video i will be getting 2k instead

[themostelite]

You go into 2k forums and live forums and post the same thing. That's usually called trolling. BTW, I see you joined three days ago, coincidently right around the time these videos came out. Hmmmm.



I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin.

Wow, when I first saw it I had to lol. I just played live 07 a couple of days ago, and I thought the dunks in that game were unrealistic. Beyond the obvious unrealistic distance of the dunk I see a couple other things that need to be improved imo:

1. Momentum. Nobody can take two short steps and fly like that, not MJ, not VC, not Nique...not anybody.

2. It didn't look like a jump, it looked like he elevated awkwardly, warped through the air until he got the basket, dunked, and then fell back to the ground. Players should go up gradually, dunk, then go down gradually.

3. Collisions don't look like collisions. It looks like one person jumping in the air, and moving the person they are attacking backwards in a straight line. Simply put, watch a couple some posterized vids on youtube.

If this is what real time physics translates to, then I feel live 10 had a better foundation. Prove me wrong EA!

You know there really isn't much attention for detail when Mike Miller still has the long hair.

I don't mean to sound fussy, but anyone who played with the Bucks in Live 10 will know that EA doesn't give a damn about Carlos Delfino.

Just sayin' EA, just sayin'.

However, the thing that I do like about the gameplay is the ESPN presentation, which I'm not going to critique just yet because we can't even here Gundy, Breen, or Jackson voicing their opinions!!!

i still like the looks of some of the guys jumpshots. not real sure on the movement of the players when they're handling the ball though. looks...weird to me. even though the videos were 'spastic' at times, nobody can get a good sense of how the game plays until they play it.

Game doesn't look that bad at all. I'm digging the direction this game is moving in. Looks like a fun alternate experience.

But that's the issue, the Elite staff could quell all of this nonsense by just releasing 1-4 minute snippets of game play by the developers who are familiar with the control schemes. You've got guys like Czar/Pared/Playmaker etc, who will give you guys open and honest feedback. Use the community.

I don't think anyone is opposed to the direction that Elite is taking. Its just that Elite's game play alone is going to have to justify a full purchase price for this year's iteration. That's a heavy hat to hang.
