Only thing that looked good was ESPN. Too bad 2K can't have that instead.

WOW, I'm very upset, I think the game looks worse then ever, I mean LIVE was building a great foundation on what they did last year, only little things needed improvements, it's like they just forgot about last year and made this mess called elite. Very disappointed EA.

Exactly how i feel. I felt they were on the cusp. Played at least 300 games on NBA Live 10. Now, i'm just disappointed.

Have you ever played Kobe Bryant Courtside on N64, because the game looks like that at times.

classic example right here thank you lol.

Concerning the gameplay and nothing else, what concerns me is that there isn't anything going on that makes you really appreciate this new direction EA has taken. In fact, there are a few instances where it looks extremely awkward. I actually enjoyed Live 10 and felt if they could loosen the animations up and correct ball physics the game would play out nicely. Especially with the great job EA does with team play, the Live series was fun to play.

My only problem with Elite is that, IMO, NBA Live 10 was the first time in a while I could say that the game improved from one year to the next. Then they say they're building a brand new game. I think they should've just added things to the Live game and improved what they already had laid down.

4real what I wanted them to improve from 10 was the footplanting, locomotion, post up, and more sigs. I'm still gonna try the demo but the vid look dull, I'm kinda sad cause I have a feeling there gonna get killed In sales smh will see what happens.

This was the most uninspiring gameplay footage. Players move stiff, and they hardly do anything on offense (off-ball). I thought I was watching a PSone or early PS2 basketball sim. I wonder what Live and 2K has to offer. This game will not be close to competing with them.

You do realize you can change the view to broadcast, right? I do wish they had shown the clip in broadcast view though...

With a complete animation overhaul this game should be quite solid.

You guys are the most nit-pickinist, over-analyzingist, never satisfiedinist group of video game spoiled brats I have ever encountered. The 45 minutes I have spent reading this post are gone forever never to be recovered. In this time I have narrowed the consensus to this;
<o></o>
<!--[if !supportLists]-->· <!--[endif]-->Too generic looking
<!--[if !supportLists]-->· <!--[endif]-->Not pretty enough
<!--[if !supportLists]-->· <!--[endif]-->Poor animations
<o></o>
All the info we have received up to now has expressed what the dev’s were focusing on this cycle, still all I read was how “disappointed” everyone was with the video. The Dev’s have been saying all along “You gotta play the Demo,” know what, I am going to wait and play the demo. After that, two possible outcomes; I like it and buy it, I don’t like and don’t buy it.
<o></o>
Why don’t we all take this approach instead of dissecting every little nuance of a 5 minute gameplay clip ad nauseum.

Live = Elite = footage you were just watching. Just to be clear.

Ok everybody be quiet and don't talk about the game until the demo comes out.

Re: NBA Elite 11 OS Exclusive Video: Milwaukee Bucks @ New York Knicks

My final rant on this game and it's future of series. Being critical on a game due to previews or video, it's really hard to make 100 percent accurate statements.

But I think primarily one of the issues with this game, is the fact that the camera angle sucks! And I mean sucks!

When previewing a game, you are to showcase it using the primary camera angle that everyone usually uses! And that is broadcast, I'm sure that 95% or more of the consumers play on other camera angles, than the one displayed in this video. A couple of things I'm also looking passed, is the lack of presentation. Seems they turned the replays or something off, because I didn't see one during gameplay!

Also looks to be on arcade mode or something, lack of drawn fouls or anything that seem like pro-basketball. I'm also going to have to just except the fact, that the Electronics Arts doesn't care about accurate animations, because as in the football titles, there is always something that just gives the player models awkward movements and stiff movements. And Elite 11 is no exception, jumpshots, layups, crossovers, etc. Have looked the same since Live 06 and in 5 years haven't progressed at all.

But every year, I supported them hoping for the best! If not for Marcus Stephenson, Joe Stallings, etc. Over the past years, I wouldn't have stayed around this long. Also I think Blackflash, and Stepsix intentions are great and I know the guys want a good game, but keep overlooking a few elements are highly important to basketball. And the key to all hoops sims / games is player movement and fluidity.

And this game just lacks fluid movement, everyone is so stiff and their bodies don't move like real ball players. I know if this game has been motion captured, there is no way anyone moves like that, somewhere in animation transitions, shortcuts are taken and it's ruining the overall look of the game.

Will I buy Elite 11? Most likely because I've bought every game since the beginning. But as a consumer and long-term supporter, I must say this will not get a next-year and not right now pass from me. This is getting a fix it in a later patch even if it's 2 gigs....add in elements that scream basketball. Or I'm officially done!!!

Killing off my NCAA Series for this type of advancement to the NBA is absolutely heartbreaking to me right now. I apologize for being so harsh, but everyone at OS, knows how much crap I took from 2k fans and guys that were bashing EA into the ground for the last few years, and I got kicked the teeth consistently backing you guys up and trying to waiver support.

But even now, I'm at a sigh* on where to go from here. For now I'm disappointed. Just seems like you went backwards, when Live 10 was almost perfect.
