Still Positive and Thirsty my Friend.

Lots of Positive action on the Outside and some in the Post. Interaction for body contact before the shot is pretty sweet. Post play, rebounds, passing- Counting on the Patch. Attractive game & flow of players when it's in motion.

Keep forgetting to order ehternet cables....



Now, to my early impressions of this demo after 3qtrs of Thunder vs Cavs - Meh. Looked promising in the vids but the feel and movement is still not there. Frames of animation are still missing causing some weirdly quick looking animations that don't look natural and human, the defense is slippery as hell even with the 'defensive assist' button being held, rebounding is a pain and that steal button just never gets fixed nor are there proper steal animations.

That's all I can think of that I disliked. As for what I like is the look of the players although they can still be toned down to a more realistic look. Still has a caroonish 'tinge' to them they way they look with the colors but still not bad.
I like the crowd and sideline ppl head tracking, or what seems to be head tracking. Subtle but noticeable. Want a broadcast cam, tho. I can't change the settings cuz they're locked and some 18% install is stuck .

The sounds go without saying. Live has been, uhh, live with that for ages, now. Best in biz with that. Paid littlw attention to the commentary tho.

I'll leave it there.
The ESPN camera is essentially the broadcast cam and it is a lot better than the default camera imo. Not going to change your overall opinion of the game but the camera is much better.

I can already tell it's going to get a lot more run from me than '15....I feel like I spent most last year just hoping it would get better, then finally gave up...this time I like the base that is there...if we can iron out some issues we'll be in business. Thanks again to you and WTF for pushing feedback...

Again, I'll give the Live team props...

and now that I have I gotta call em out on one thing...

"Best in class animation?"

Love the off ball movement

Upset the pull-up animations didn't get worked on

Love that the pnr is op as last year so far

Love tgat they listened n other ball handlers bring the ball up instead of the pg all the time.

Cpu throwing more lobs

Post game is nice but the back down needs to be revamped

Too many missed shots at the basket like the other game

This weakass demo is stuck at 19%, so all I can do is play this one game with a horrible camera view. Argh.
