[atlwarya]

Wow Ive been playing 2k11 for so long that I forgot how responsive nba live's controls are. And how much control you have. And im talking about nba live 06 on the pc people using my logitech controller.

Re: Responsiveness and control

I was the best player on NBA Live 06 PC. lol. That was a fun game even if it was kind of arcade. I liked that it gave you the tools to stop almost anything if you knew it was coming.

I still remember all of the dicks on that game that would lag your free throws by taking screenshots or edit rosters to make their players better. Good times, though.

Re: Responsiveness and control

That's what NBA Elite was trying to bring back. It's also the main reason I could never get into the 360/PS3 versions of Live 08-10. I felt that I had to anticipate everything and could not rely on any split second reactions to create or adjust on the fly to what my opponent was doing. Add online lag to that and it becomes unplayable to me.

That's what we get when we want the game more realistic looking, though. We don't understand that all the foot planting and extra animations that make the game smoother and realistic are the cause of that delayed feeling.

Re: Responsiveness and control

control vs content is a long standing debate with no true winner IMO.....

basketball and football gaming has this debate

and so far in both these 2 areas in football and basketball( i never played hockey or baseball) in next gen EA has been lacking in the content area

control will only take you so far....

Live controls great, 2k offers great content ----- which is more important to you?

i dont think footplanting is the issue, 2k animation philosophy seems to be exaggerated animations for every aspect of their game, whether thats realistic is subjective, their football games does this as well ever tried throwing on the run in a 2kfootball, game same feeling as playing man D in basketball
