Okay, so I've seen a lot of talk in the threads about animations that need to be removed or altered, and I'm making my own list, but crowdsourcing feedback would allow me/us to get as many of these as possible listed for me to present to EA.
So, that being said, this can't be a place where you come in and shout "animations suck! 16 bit rawr rawr!," because that doesn't help anyone. What I need is this: if you've gone through the pre-release footage/played the demo and found an animation you think looks particularly bad, link the video in this thread along with a general timestamp and a short description of what I should be looking for like "#3 is under the basket and does a hook shot without looking at the rim."
I will then review the footage, chop out gifs of the offending animations, and collect them all in an imgur library for us to present to the devs. I'll link the library here as I build it for everyone to review so I can make sure we're getting the right ones, and we'll use this as a place to point out the biggest offenders. I cannot guarantee that this means that ANY of these will get fixed, as that is something that is beyond my control, but it will get to people whose job it is to handle this stuff.
I'm going to have more threads like this for more things in the future, so please don't clutter this thread with other stuff. There can be some light discussion on the examples posted (I do want this to be collaborative), but long diatribes about EA or why can't they do this or whatever will just be deleted, so don't waste your energy.
I'm fighting for the sim heads in here, and I know there are a ton of you who are concerned with animation quality, so thanks in advance for making yourselves heard!
I'm working on the imgur album now, but the following has already been posted to it: https://youtu.be/cEqgoFbiEHA?t=5m22s
The layup attempt at 5:24 has no foot planting and no awareness of the basket. Here's the gif:
The album has now been created. It is located here.
