Thanks for the vids Dre...appreciate it bro

The game looks............man, I don't know. I am not sure what they are aiming at? Sim or arcade? Bits of it look sim / bits look pure arcade. I've felt this has been Live's problem for a while now...they've kind of been lost in no man's land with no real idea of who they are aiming at / trying to get both markets but actually getting none.

Apparently there's way less sliders this year, so what you see is what you'll be stuck with. I may sit out this season of LIVE / Elite. I've bought every one since Lakers v Celtics, but I'm just not feeling it this season at all. Hope the demo proves me wrong.

Everything from the running, passing, shooting, blocking, dribbling, etc. Basically every animation looks so unnatural and quirky. Animations across the board should be a top priority for Elite 12. I'm really, really hoping those rocket dunks are just bugs that can be fixed.

To tough to tell...

From the onset though I feel that the new camera approach is where they based most of the gameplay tweaks off of. So I feel that from that angle the game will look good. When you focus on a game from one aspect that aspect takes center stage through development.

I'm a BIG Live fan thanks to it's customization and through the years have edited everything about the game. here's to hoping that same customization is in and not left out due to this years new approach and outlook by Littman. The NHL series has become a success in the way Fifa has and I can see why they wanted to capture that same success with NBA Live (now titled NBA Elite)

Who dribbles while sliding left to right? The offensive players look like they are in defensive stances while they are dribbling. The movement didn't look good. You can't tell the difference between Shaq and Nate Robinson(except for the height). The players look like they have 50inch verticals. Very disappointing.

Another thing I noticed is that the old..OLD live problem of shaq making fadeaway jumppers is back. They are taking alot of steps back man..

Glad I haven't sold Live 10 (which to me is the most enjoyable bball I've ever played) yet. Looks like I might still be playing that again this year.

The smooth shooting animations, one of the biggest highpoints from last year look long gone and there seems to be more sliding for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if the demo came out AFTER the game was released after these worrying clips.

Maybe tomorrow the Devs can get us some much needed answers. I think the camera angle as Tomba stated has alot to do with it. Its kinda like someone deleted all the animations when they got rid of the two man animations. Elite needs animations, I don't want to run around the court like a robot for the sake of total control. I am really hoping that this is a very old build and the game has made leaps and bounds in the area of overall polish.

How far can you truly take this element of how it "feels". I mean its play is subpar, looks subpar, realism is totally subpar, physics are subpar, signature shots are subpar . . . . but how does it "feel"???? How can you possibly reject 80-90% of the evidence and attempt to base your opinion soley on this ever-alluding concept of "how it feels"? Am I the only one that completely doesn't buy this "well you really need to see how it 'feels'" BS. I want a realistic basketball sim. And regardless of how "it feels", if it looks and plays like that, it's utterly ridiculous to deem this a sim.
