Re: NBA Elite 11 Videos and Impressions From the Boost Mobile Elite 24 Event

I didnt say nodody could voice their opinion. Its just the same thing over and over. It dont do any good to keep saying the same bad things over and over.

And i mentioned 2k because if you are going to bash elite over and over and you dont like it then leave. People act like this is the only basketball game. There is another basketball game out there. If you dont like macdonalds you dont sit there and complain about how nasty the food is. You take your a** to burger king. Im pretty sure ea wants your 60 dollars but can care less if you dont give it to them because they will get it from someone else.

AMEN to that homie! lookin forward to playin elite 11. And to all you 2k fanboys and ea ******, like my man said if you dont like it then dont buy the muthaf*cka!!

haha i was trying to defend elite too from all this hatred but my post got deleted because it wasnt about elite according to the mod who seems like a fan of 2k but hopefully elite turns out to be a good game

Re: NBA Elite 11 Videos and Impressions From the Boost Mobile Elite 24 Event

dam i think everyone has complained enough. The same people are saying the same thing. I probably seen like 8 different posts each on the boozer dunk, the jumping, skating, or movement. I think we got the point after like the first 2 or 3 post. If its so bad then go to 2k forum. like i said before i always been and will be a live/elite fan so hell developers send me the game cause i will happily play the hell out of it.

And why shouldnt shaq be able to do a fadeaway. I can go on the court and try to do anything that nba player do or try any shot. You mean to tell me that in real life it is impossiable for shaq to try a fadaway. Thats like saying shaq should not be able to shoot a 3 on the game. Weather the ball goes in is a diffrent story

I feel you on that!

Oh my lord. I just seen Tyson Chandler dunk from the free throw line with a quick skip. I'm sorry Elite but this aint gonna cut it. This is not simulation basketball.

And the replays look horrible again just like the last few NBA Lives. Its like the replays are shot from a camera angle in the nose bleed section.

Man i don't know if some of you guys are being sarcastic or up front in this thread....

Having said all that I'm not really comfortable with this game from the information I've been reading.

I don't think i've ever skipped a year without purchasing Live or the College basketball game by EA. One of the options got canned so i can't but that game either way. But the Pro option isn't looking to good and i just can't see myself allowing the game to frustrate me if i see things that were a problem since Live 07 still being present 4-5 years later.

fatleg what's up Fam. I was a big proponent of live last year pre the patch of doom, But one thing that I kept repeating is that those who have an issue with the game should not be silenced. They should have an equal opportunity to say what they feel is wrong with the game.

It can be a tough thing but most in here are only voicing their frustration because they really wanted to be able to get into the game this year.

I don't know how long you have been gaming ( no insult here I really don't know) but some of us have been waiting a very very very long time for live to get their stuff together.

Along those lines this is a LEAST their 3rd attempt at a 3 year plan. No kidding. So for some of us we have heard this all before. EA has broken more sim gamers hearts on so many occassions they are really going to have to show and prove. Guys are tired of hearing the same old lines with consistently sub par game play.

They have been saying this is a revolution etc etc etc. DId that look revolutionary to you ? No it didn't so people just feel duped again. That's all it is. Now I have been saying and continue to say that until we play it or at least see 2 people who are very good at the game play it you really won't know because of how much control they give the user.

Having said all that the MOd's will take care of the trolls but lets not immediately dismiss negative thoughts about the game as being some sort of 2k conspiracy all the time. Most are here because they are or were excited about the possibilities of what they were talking about.

I refuse to believe they spent all that money and time and what we saw in these videos was what they had in their heads when they said " this is great, this is revolutionary" Can't be.... LOL

I hope not after 5 years....this can't be the final product for NBA Elite 11

Re: NBA Elite 11 Videos and Impressions From the Boost Mobile Elite 24 Event

It took me a minute to post and try to keep my comments clean. I defended Live 10, and til this day absolutely love it.

Elite 11, has better controls from what the videos and write ups are telling me. From every video I've seen, I haven't seen anyone use any of these better controls, not as crossovers, dunks, post moves or anything.

Am I disappointed from what I've seen in the videos?

Absolutely, from a gameplay aspect, I absolutely hate the stiff jumpshot animations and the crooked elbows during rebounds, etc. My only complaint is the players joints are just crooked and stiff during shooting and so forth. This has been an issues since Live 06, and has never gotten corrected in 5 years. That is what I'm disappointed about.

Last years graphics were nice, player models need work on faces, etc. Arenas and courts were nice! Only thing this game needed to change was presentation and animations. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the controls.

With ESPN and 3 man commentary - presentation is improved and fixed.

But those terrible animations haven't been looked into or fixed, and the footplanting from Live 06,07,08,09.10..looks to be messed up, I see sliding now! Something that hasn't been in a Live game since Xbox and PS2.

Still work to be done before release....fixed these things guys and the game will be okay!

Thanks for sharing 23, and everyone else, can't wait for a final release or demo.

Re: NBA Elite 11 Videos and Impressions From the Boost Mobile Elite 24 Event

like i said before i always been and will be a live/elite fan so hell developers send me the game cause i will happily play the hell out of it.

No offense, but THIS is the mentality I think fans of either game can't stand. What's the point of competition making each game better if it doesn't change anything?

Re: NBA Elite 11 Videos and Impressions From the Boost Mobile Elite 24 Event

exactly, wait for the demo guys.

to supplement czar's great post. david littman HIMSELF said that the game had to be played, not seen. he was basically intoning that vids aren;t goinjg to make this game look good. its playing it that will give you that sensation he keeps talking about.

so lets wait till the demo before writing anything off and see if he is right.

I was serious. lol. But I have gotten almost every Live game too but this year, I'm so disappointed in what Im seeing on these videos. The only thing that I like is the ESPN stuff. I have been complaining about these animations for years and they never fix it.

Ppl are complaining bc they want to game to be good game. You act like ppl want Elite to be a bad game and just talk sh** about it. Ppl want a good basketball game and are not gonna except anything. If ppl didnt care, then they wouldnt say anything and just let Elite do whatever they want. But I wanna see improvments and so Ima am going to voice they opinion.

Re: NBA Elite 11 Videos and Impressions From the Boost Mobile Elite 24 Event

I will try the demo and make up my mind then but, seriously, nobody is going to convince me that the overload of bad animations that we've seen in the videos is going to magically disappear if you know how to play the game. I do believe that the chaos will be (alot) better if you know the controls and flow of the game, but still, there are ugly things in there that have been in for years and they seem more noticeable than ever.

Also the '3 year plan' shouldn't be an excuse for not releasing a good game. I'd rather have them not release a game for 2 years and come with a great one afterwards.

[rhein77]

I watched the vids and it is looking bleak. I play a basketball game for aesthetics as well as gameplay, and their are glaring issues I just cant get past. I too bought live every year from lakers vs celtics to the year that D-Wade was on the cover. I think the glory days were when they released Live 95. Hell... I remember being addicted to Coach K basketball for the sega genesis where you can break the backboard lol. It hurts me to my heart because I was an ea fanboy. This is disappointing. I will play the demo but it looks like 2k has gotten my money this year. It clearly looks like the FAR superior product.
