NBA Elite 11 OS Exclusive Video: Milwaukee Bucks @ New York Knicks

[sportyguyfl31]

Watched a few more times, and honestly...I like it.

I think it boils down to a couple of things.

1) IF you didnt like Live 10, you arent going to see anything that will make you conisder giving '11 a shot.

2) If you liked Live 10, I think this game is going to play well, and be a lot of fun, once you get a hang of the control scheme. and learn how and when to do the things we are used to doing.

The commentary is a little blah...I'll concede that.

Even Mark Jackson's "Hands down, man down!" sounded stale.

On the court though, I like what I see from the spacing, playcalling layout, Amare's up and under, collision detection, etc.

Definitely getting the game.

I look at it like this. I'm a graduate student in a pretty tough, medical concentration right now. I really shouldn't be playing video games anyway.

But if I want to spend a little time outside of studying, would I want to play this on Day 1, just from looking at the gameplay that's been released so far?

The answer for me, unfortunately, is no. I think I can wait until maybe Thanksgiving, Christmas or maybe even later for this, BASED ON HOW IT LOOKS. Again, this obviously doesn't include my full opinion without the demo.

Other few thoughts about the video:

• players don't animate realistically, this should be top priority next year
• players who dribble assume an hunchbacked stance
• For the first time in the series I've seen a decent up and under move

I can't say that I'm disappointed because that's what I expected Elite to be after these months' talks with the kind developers. Two things will stand out above all: RTP and hands-on controls, the rest will be mediocre, if this is a work in progress of a three year project.

You havent even played the game yet. So how do you knw most of the problems or gone? Its hurting my head reading oh the controls this and that cmon. So you telling me sum of you guys wld rather have. A game that controls well but have stale and boring gameplay? Oh and yes 65 bucks is alot for a game I don't seem to be worth it

Ea just needs to start from the ground up with new animations and graphic design. They would of been better off taking this year off and working in those areas before releasing the new Elite series.

Man, I was never going to buy elite, after watching the video, Im still not, and just to put this out there, iM not here to bash the game or anything.

But what the heck is the deal with EA sports and presentation? Man, they are bad at doing commentary and presentational elements. Its like zoolander couldn't turn left, EA can't do presentation.

Yes, they make the overlay look pretty at the bottom but i do not believe anything else that they have done is "broadcast quality". Its frustrating to watch.

As for the rest of the video, Im going to need more to really say if its bad or not, but I did feel inclined to talk on presentation cause I can assure you it wont be fixed or poilished from where it is in the video because it Vintage EA presentation. The other stuff will prob be better Ill assume.

What to do?
