Lol! wow that's a quick turnaround..

Was this something that was easily put in the game due to the new tech or just something yall have wanted to add but couldnt until now?

If it's any consolation, shooting the ball is one of the most fun things in the game right now because the ball reacts to your input. You've heard it already, but miss left it goes left, miss right it goes right. Every little change to the motion of the stick will result in a change to the ball path and how it interacts with the rim. It really does feel like shoot a real basketball. So while the ball/rim physics system hasn't been significantly changed since last year, how we use it has been completely revamped. I hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply.

I must admit the new shooting mechanic does sound promising, I look forward to giving it a try.

I have a simple question, if I am not mistaken, the turbo/sprint button is gone, am I correct???

If so, what is the thought process behind it???

Shouldn´t you be able, to change gears, in for example, a fast-break play, of-course having an affect on the fatigue of the player, but if you want to play an up-tempo game.... will the game allow you to do it???

With the new defensive controls (you can see Connor demonstrating the moving steals) we needed to redo some of the hit detection on what was considered a foul. I had to wait until that was in before I could then look at when a foul was commited, where the defense was relative to the ball carrier.

Long story short the guys doing intentional fouls and steals did the hard work, I just had to connect a couple pieces.

I was wondering the same thing, if right trigger isn't turbo/sprint, what is? Or is turbo/sprint a thing of the past?

But for now... I don't really care about turbo... I'm just hyped for Elite 11. Controls have always been my biggest concern when it comes to video games. That's how I felt back on SNES, and it's the same on 360.

So I think this is just the perfect direction for Elite to take. If I want 100% pure realism, I'll either go down to the court or watch a game on TV. Trying to weigh down a game with "smooth" animations in the hopes of appearing realistic was never an approach I appreciated, and quite frankly largely ruined next-gen bball for me.

What's funny, is one of the things rEAnimator said really excited me, but probably upset a few other guys... the part about trade offs, trading control for the way things look at times. I'm all in favor of this. Obviously, there has to be a happy medium, but I'd much rather err on the side of great controls than great animations/appearance.

Thanks for all the info!
