I think it feel better that it's real and not artificial.

That is great!! This will surely improve gameplay!

HI DEV TEAM

my question is, will you guys have the camera angle that you guys had in the HANGAR in nba live 10? i really hoped u guys put that angle in this years game, because u can see the facial features better and it looks so real up close like that, i was dissapointed in live 10 cause they didnt have that cam angle in the regular game. no matter how much i tweaked the camera i couldnt get that angle. i know alot of people agreed so please try to put it in

Somehow, I have seen that already.

And it's the same kind of logic that causes the "Mo Williamses" to go nuts in Live's past 2 games or so. Live needs player tendencies for every player in the league. I don't know if they already have it but if they do, it doesn't play like it. Derek Fisher should not shoot the ball 15+ times in a game. He's in an offense where he's rarely closed in on, so technically he's "open". Doesn't mean he should shoot it if he's not closed in on. Elite needs to find a balance for this.

that last bit is the key right there. If you the user leave a good outside shooter like Fish wide open you should be punished. It's a tough one because if it's done one way you end up with guys like Fisher shooting too much but if you go to far the other way you end up with guys not taking wide open shots which looks even worse imo.

If Derek Fisher was left wide open in real life i think he would shoot 15 times. He is paid to keep defenses honest by knocking down open shots. They'd (the Lakers) be crazy to turn down uncontested shots from such a great shooter unless he was a in a complete shooting funk or something.

They should have 2 separate sliders imo (if they don't already): one for uncontested jump shots and one for contested jump shots.

I think the way that they are doing Jumpshots is a pretty good formula. Every type of shot has a sweet spot; in which you have to match with good timing and precision on the stick. Then defense plays a role by making the sweet spot smaller based on the contest of the shot and the shooter thats taking the shot.

Fatigue also plays a role in the sweet spot, the more tired your player gets the smaller his sweet spot becomes which makes it more difficult to run around a chuck up shots with one player all game. Also the difficulty of the shot effects the sweet spot too, with open shots having a bigger sweet spot then leaning fade-a-ways for example. Not to mention distance from the hoop effects it too.

We've yet to find out what other factors play a role in shot success but this seems like the right way to go in my opinion. Hopefully some other factors like the height of the player make an impact on the sweet spot. With it being easier to shoot over a shorter player and harder over a taller player.


There's my 2 cents on the situation

Yeah that does sound pretty sweet. With so many variable's it going to be hard to get it right so i hope they are putting it through some seriously in depth Q and A this year to iron out the kinks.
