Thanks for taking the time out to answer questions man. YOu rock!!!

Quick question to anybody who would know. How do you pump fake??

I read somewhere that you flick up on the right stick.. And to shoot is more of a hold a release so it sounds like they are going the 2K route with it.

Yes, absolutely. Adjusting mid air isn't just something you do to show off. It is a tool to use to avoid the block or draw the foul.

Shot blocks are a physical simulation of the hand and arm on the ball so you should see all kinds of different things happening.

And I can 100% promise you that you will not see any slow mo alley oops. I know what you're talking about and that will not happen.

Will there be adjustable game speed? The game looks kind of fast in that Durant vs. LBJ video. If the game will be slowed down, then great.

rEAnimator, and all other devs posting in this thread/forum; I appreciate all the responses and I'm loving the direction the series is headed. The video posted in this thread, in my opinion, was great. With that said, I have a few questions, that if possible, i'd like answered.

1. Fouls

In Live 10 it seemed as if a lot of the collisions that should have been fouls, weren't called, especially against the CPU. In fact, in games against the CPU, it seemed they'd get all the calls while the players hardly got any. Has player/cpu foul ratio been worked on for Elite 10, and will collisions that should be fouls be called?

2. Dynasty

Will there be an actual full fledged dynasty mode this year? A dynasty mode was severely lacking in last seasons iteration.

3. Presentation

Have elements of presentation been added to the game, giving the game more of a "broadcast" feeling? Stat overlays, halftime shows, etc?

4. Sneakers/Jerseys/Gear

One of my favorite things about the Elite/Live series is the sheer amount of sneaker, gear, and jersey, options in the game. Will this continue to be a focus in the series, and will more shoes(Jordan's especially), jerseys, and gear options, continue to be added into the game? Also, in Live 10, when players like Durant and Melo would wear socks over compression sleeves worn on their legs, it'd come out glitchy and funny looking during the game.

Furthermore, and this is just an idea, I think it'd be a great if compression shirts, sock color options, and an option to choose which shoes are worn with alternates and throwbacks were added.

I apologize, I'm a big "gear" guy.

5. Game Speed

In this above video, the game speed seemed a little extreme. Will this be tuned down, or will there be a game speed slider?

A couple of follow up questions rEAnimator:

GAME SPEED:

• Most games (i.e MADDEN) these days IMO seem to have game speed issues (too fast)...Some of the posters already commented on the speed of Elite with things happening very fast. Can or will the game speed be toned down?..I ask this because at a slightly slower speed I think users get a better opportunity to enjoy the subtle nuances you guys put into the game but when players are hyper speeding all over the court its likely we will not see much of the detail work you guys put into animations etc...Your thoughts on a slightly slower game speed?

ONLINE PLAY:

• Any plans for online league play? (web support/32 teams?)
• Online use of Multiple Camera Options?

Yeah, we all think the game is too fast as well. Not sure about the game speed option, was it there last year?

Anyway, things will change as we introduce player ratings and start tuning locomotion speeds. Everything is tuned for the fastest, most explosive and agile player right now. So keep that in mind when you watch the videos.

I'm not going to promise that everyone who's complained so far will like the game speed we settle on because it may very well be faster than real life to make it feel more responsive, but everyone here on the dev team thinks it's too fast right now so it won't stay as is.
