I really like the movement overall and the presentation is looks great as well. Looks pretty good to me.

It's not just more than one pivot in real life.

In video games tho, the player is going to slide, so it should be called a travel if he moves...Maybe not every accident, but if it's user input then they should have someway to detect that and I think they do now.

Regardless, what I'm saying is Tim Duncan traveled. If he did that in real life the ref would have called travel. Thing is Tim Duncan has good footwork so he would never do make those pivots in real life. Lol

Cheese or no cheese I've always said that's a travel in the game and I've seen people do it in the park and in quick games. It seems that problem is solved.

I'm all for more sim and less arcade stuff, so I'm hype about this, lol...

I liked that fact that he pumped faked...then proceeded to drive the lane

I agree that is a travel and it's cool to me as long as its not completely random. My thing is, is there something the user did specifically to cause that? Does it always happen if you pivot more than once(I hope not because its a legit move)? Because if just happens when it happens how do you prevent it from happening? I am questioning the control here, not so much the realism.

I keep pitching this idea fam.Simultaneous to Gamescon on just before it release a few possessions of a dev playing the game for comparison sakes. LOL. PLEASE!!

I haven't watched the video yet, but since 90% of the comments are just "that dude sucks at the game!" I'm assuming it looks promising.

Agreed. If this build is any indication, it doesn't seem they struck the right chord with that yet. They need to go back to having several types of frames for players, particularly a normal build for guys who are neither skinny or especially muscular.

Maybe he thought, the taller a player is the closer he is to the basket from long distance ? LOL
