I hope I am wrong but I think there is going to some major "growing pains" this year. But I definitely think the future is bright.
I agree. He made it sound like this is not Elite's year, but promising for the future.

I think we sometimes forget that reviewers are just as human as us. we have heard much praise for elite this year and some that dont believe in the hype. i think that in the end as with us, with them its just a matter of which you prefer.

elite has made many changes and could cause worry because it may seem unfinished. but we also have to look at 2k and how they have gone against their old way of doing things. i like to think that was influenced by pressure but in thought they want to follow suit and stop canned animations.

this could go bad for them because up till now 2k has relied on canned animations.

in the end both will have flaws and both will have shining moments. its up to who you wanna shine with.

Re: NBA Elite 11 Preview (IGN)

elite flite has a point. It really is up to the consumer this year. I commend what ea has done because they're really trying hard to make a solid game. 2k on the other hand is known for the past few years as the number 1 game.

I think that with them trying to change their game around, it will be a very different game...for the better or worse, i don't know. Can't wait for the demos to come out

Why not show it? We have nothing to hide.

There were many great things in this build of the game and it was also a great opportunity to get feedback from outside people.

People who review games for a living generally understand what a work in progress is and can see past the things that we clearly haven't finished yet. So having them see a build without particular player ratings or areas that simply haven't been tuned shouldn't really be a concern.

There are lots of great features much closer to being complete in the game that weren't mentioned in the preview, but the feedback he and others gave us at the event was useful and in the end will make for a better final product.

I wish I could like the Elite (Live) series because I used to play Live 2002 like crazy but since 2K came in with just a better game overall I've been playing it instead, especially with the Jordan Challenge in there now. If Live didn't look so much like an Arcade game I'd get it, but I'll be sticking with 2K.

I love this way of thinking. to take any feedback and listen to it is great. add to the fact that you took major figures from the sim community and had them add the feedback early on.

The guys who know our concerns most. and on top of it all to show them the gameplay without all things factored in it makes me believe that there is so much more to come.

Yeah, it's still a wait and see/play for both games right now.
