Was an ugly thing to see but that was all user controlled so it was their decision to do it. Obviously the goal is to give Shaq his own set of sig post moves but for this situation it could have been controlled.

So the user could have chosen to use a more "shaq" like move. Its not like last year where that was one of the only options in the post up.

And hopefully with the Real-AI feature we won't see him shooting fadeaways by the CPU either.

Shaq shooting fadeaways shouldnt even be in the discussion man.

I dont care how much control you want to have, thats just too much control.

Its not realistic at all.

Oh yea it definitely isn't something I like to see either, Shaq (and many other guys) definitely needs his own set of post moves.

Giving players the option to even attempt it is odd for sure, but the fact that we can control it keeps me happy.

And besides they added in a nice set of moves for the power bigs this year so I'm happy that I won't have to be playing with Shaq shooting fadeaways if I don't want to.. Was really frustrating having to do that last year he looked like a punk out ther lol!

I disagree, if the guy wants Shaq to put up a bunch of fades then fine, if he wants Shaq to take 20 shots from downtown then fine. And if that's going to be his gameplan then Shaq should go 1 for 35 for the night. I love letting the user have all the control they want, they just shouldn't get ANY success when going in a non-sim realistic fashion with their gameplay. Same thing with the dunks, if a guy wants to attempt to dunk with Boozer from the line then fine let him try, and when Boozer comes up 3 feet short and goes to ground with his arms flailing like he just fell off a building turning the rock over then that's all on the user. These are the animations that need to be added to games. Guys coming up short clanging the rock on the front of the rim because they jumped to soon. Guys shooting shots with no chance of success with guys who simply can't shoot at those ranges.

One thing I noticed with these vids is that if you have a player with a half sim mind on the sticks and knows the controls he can dominate because it SEEMS like the game is rewarding basketball fundamentals versus just wilding out on the sticks. And if this is the case then this game will definitely get a look from me.

I dont know why moves should be limited. They should just be unsuccessful. You mean to tell me Shaq couldnt pull off a fadeaway if he wanted to? As long as its user controlled and not the AI Im cool with it.

I forgot to add that to my post above but absolutely. Let the User do what he wants to and when the game is over and he has 19 points for the game let him wonder why. AI doesn't need to be doing any of this unless Shaq winds up with the ball in his hand off a broken play with 1.5 seconds left 18 ft from the rim

I understand but I dont agree...

Especially after dealing with Live 09 and 10

and just because someone can do something possibly doesnt mean they should

Just because Bynum can do a fadeaway doesnt mean he should've been doing it last year

Fact is you never see the guy doing this stuff
