NBA Elite 11 Video: Real AI

[Young Murder]

I think EA has built a great foundation for Elite 11 and I think Elite is about to become something great just like the NHL over 3 years.

The tutorial and practice mode have gotten my attention. I actually liked the idea of the NBA academy in Live 09 it just screamed depth gameplay. Even though that game was lacking it though lol!

Hopefully this years game can bring that extra layer of depth. Besides I really like going into the academy and working on different aspects of my game was cool to do.

This time around it may actually be a key to success too with everything being so skill driven which is exactly how I would want it to be anyway.

First let me say I am very hopeful about this game. I enjoyed Live 08-10.

I could be wrong here, but I really haven't seen any physics in this game. Every video we have seen has shown sliding where there should be physics, or no effect on a players momentum when there should be.

Did I miss a video where the physics were more apparent?

I agree with this. Somethings not right... not a single gameplay vid.. just snippets of non gameplay? Call me skeptical.... but this has that Live 07 feeling to me.

Check out quick clips #3 and #5 on youtube, they are definitely not the greatest looking things though but they do display the physics engine in the game.

I guess we are going to have to wait for either the demo or an extended 5on5 video to see how much of an effect the physics can have on the game though..

IMO EA has yet to show anything that I would consider real physics, it's impossible to say okay this will only happen once because nothing is scripted yet only show us one example of this happening wont it be more beneficial to show a bunch of video with the same situation to show us how nothing is scripted.

Yeah, I like that Idea....

Will check those out. I am hopeful that the builds we are seeing are early and don't show off the true physics.

I will say that even if they aren't great this year, I still applaud them for going this route. Its definitely something they can build on, and the direction sports games should be going.
