^^^ Agreed. It is one of the exploits used by cheesers online due to the high success rate of long passes.

I hope that long passes in Elite 11 will be more difficult and will have a very low success rate when there's a defender guarding the receiver.

I think ea copied 2k's shot stick controls but this is still decent looking. This years race wll be close.

Somebody said,

2K = Timing Batting
Elite 11 = Timing and Zone Batting

This version looked like it was a little more polished. Seemed alot smoother but still didn't see any sig shot types or any rim movement on dunks so I imagine it is still a real early build. Plus was hard to tell what the graphics looked like from that distance but didn't look bad.

Re: 7 Minute NBA Elite 11 Video (Gamespot)

That was an impressive video imo. If they can work on the sig animations we could have something special on our hands here. I don't want to get too excited yet because I need to try this out first, but what I've seen and heard so far has this game on my radar.

Could we finally have an EA basketball game that lives up to the hype? We'll find out soon enough.

That might open a potential for other problems and unrealistic gameplay with artificial hot/cold streaks. The problem is, if Fisher is open then he SHOULD be shooting, and he does in real life. Obviously it's not going to be 30 times per game, but if the User is constantly leaving him then chalk it up to bad User controlled defense.

Wasn't this the EXACT problem we all saw in the Live 10 DEMO? When Fisher wasn't closed in on, he shot it.

To me that's a problem.

And it's the same kind of logic that causes the "Mo Williamses" to go nuts in Live's past 2 games or so.

Live needs player tendencies for every player in the league.

I don't know if they already have it but if they do, it doesn't play like it.

Derek Fisher should not shoot the ball 15+ times in a game. He's in an offense where he's rarely closed in on, so technically he's "open". Doesn't mean he should shoot it if he's not closed in on.

Elite needs to find a balance for this.

Controls look like they can be amazing. Looks very responsive too.

Re: 7 Minute NBA Elite 11 Video (Gamespot)

Yes, this is looking very promising.

I have a question though, will you guys give us more of a deeper association with more features, like a whole lot of features?

Can you guys tell us some of the new features in Elite 11, like maybe a my player mode of Elite 11?

I cannot answer any questions about game modes at this time. Sorry.

More information will be released in the near future.

hi rEAnimator

i am a little concern with the clear path fouls e.g i dont want to have a game were i have 15 fastbreak opportunities and i never get to finish none of them because they will abuse the clear path fouls, please limit the clear path fouls to like 3 a game because if u dont trust me we will never see fastbreaks get finished with a nice dunk,

another thing can u guys change the online to 6 minutes per quarter, because it will give it a more realistic score specialy with these new controls

the rules are rules, man

cheesers will always exist...i don't want the devs artificially trying to change that by affecting gameplay or the rules of basketball.

We didn't change anything about how easy it is to commit the foul, we simply added the rule to discourage people from doing it.

So this change should only make things better.

Re: 7 Minute NBA Elite 11 Video (Gamespot)

not even going to front as I am a 2K head, but this video looked amazing with the crispness of the controls. I was intensely looking for any suction, or two player anims, but alas, they were true to their word and in actions. Looking forward to the demo with great interest.

I'm really glad to hear that you like what you saw.

Couldn't agree more. I think this year will be the best year in a long time to be a basketball video game fan.

Re: 7 Minute NBA Elite 11 Video (Gamespot)

Love the video demo!!

One concern of mine is, will fatigue and player and team momentum (hot streaks) also affect sweet spot/release points? same goes for defense.

I already envisioned cheesers iso all day with Lebron/Kobe/Wade crossover and spin moving to death. So if one uses that player all the time in real life that player has to tire out soon enough and should affect his shooting and defense overall. Also, say someone has nailed down the shot release point of a player (Mo Williams, Nash) on a certain spot/angle in the court (common cheeser tactic finding a glitch where shots drop all the time) doesn't mean he'll make the shot all the time, so if he's been shooting 50 times already with the same player that player should tire out and affect his shooting aspects.

Again if a team is on a roll and hot from good plays or after a good defense, transition baskets (used to call it momentum on! back in the NBA Live days) it should affect also there shooting, also good ball movement finding the open man rewards that player (SIM Player!!) a nice sweet spot for the open man.

I would love to have FATIGUE/MOMENTUM (Team/Player) in there implemented as well not just in the shot control but in whole gameplay. Or at least assign SUPERSTAR level where fatigue is a factor which would cater to hard core SIM PLAYERS. Or bring back the Simulation / Arcade gameplay options on the main menu which applies to both offline/online games.
