Creative director for NBA Elite 11 David Littman, who has made the NHL series at EA a huge success, said that, "Now, if someone makes a shot from half court, you can't get mad because it's entirely skill-based.

Men how much does this guy know about basketball ?

I loved the previous direction of Nba Live now its elite which isn't even a term in the basketball vernacular. A now this gentlemen who made Hockey a hit is the CREATIVE director ? This is the NEW direction ? does anyone else who loves BASKETBALL see any thing wrong with this ?

In an effort to sell units will they sell their basketball soul ? Elite 11 ? come on family. That is not inline with the culture of the game!! Heres to hoping I'm wrong but I think the basketball will suffer. It'll probably be a lot of fun for the first 2 weeks though.

Does anything EA do at times make any sense Da_Czar?

That's like asking a Baseball Guru to discuss Football on Sundays

But hey maybe the hockey guy is flexible

Czar, as I said in the other thread you said exactly what I attempted to say. I share your concerns as well as nervous optimism.

lol that comment is pissing people off but its definitely true and I could take you to my gym to prove it. That being said the same could be said by soccer fans for lives producer moving over so I don't think it matters much.

I know you have to Rock but you have to admit when the creative director is saying things like this....

Its not looking good fam ! This is coming from guy who stood up for live when it was not popular to do so.

Its starting to become clear why some of last years team are no longer present. Skill based half court shots... a new feature...

So the person setting the creative direction for a franchise doesn't matter much ? is that your point ? Seriously ?
