I find it kind of discouraging that this thread has been ignored by the devs. Enough talk about the market is shrinking, we want answers to the glitches guys are finding in the demo. Thanks. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...ot-glitch.html

You have no idea how hard it is to try and keep up with all the posts here.

I've read it, haven't replied yet, but it is definitely patchable. Quite easily.

What I wanted to find out before I replied was if it was already fixed for retail or not.

Still haven't got that answer though...

I think the dribbling system is sick. Maybe I'm seeing things but it looks like SOOOO much more control then 2k. I'm no 2k *****, bought it the last 4 years. 2k's demo was PATHETIC!!! I felt like I was playing 2k10. I think I might buy Elite. Not sure yet but the 2k demo and from other things I've read just don't impress me.

That being said I do like Elite's presentation as well as their legendary mode, I hope it would be better than 2k's My Player mode...I like their announce team for Elite, sadly 2k's demo didnt have any announce team and that makes me fear they will use similar voice-over's from last year's game. The only thing I don't like in NBA Elite so far is just the gameplay, but me being a 2k player that could be justified. Its just different player movements and reactions to defenders. I will try NBA Elite when it comes out and then after decide if it could be a option to buy.

Agreed.

But, that is the thing ReEanimator, no one is complaining about the controls. Don't change that. The controls are natural and a fresh, fun approach to video game basketball.

However, excluding game play and sound, Elite is behind 2k in every other tangible aspect of recreating NBA basketball. You name it. Animations, AI, Association(Franchise), TV style integration, NBA integration.

Now I don't claim to know how hard it is to program anything but getting guys in there to have people perform NBA caliber animations on motion cap should be your #1 priority as of today for Elite 12.

You want me to repeat everything else you're reading? You want me to continue to pound on what is not realistic? How about one of you supporters challenge my Live 10 video mix and make a better one since you think the controls are better for us. I dont like much of anything about this game at all, graphics, gameplay, AI, footplanting or lack thereof.. What else do you need? Go read all of my posts, my convo with the devs.. I've said enough, look at my thread about physics and how Live 08 looks way better than this game in collisions. The stuff thrown around here about suction, well Live 08 didnt have suction in it and it, so whats so special about this game again? I mean my goodness, 280lb PFs jumping from the ft line... taking off from almost the vert.. the changed controls when there was no real need for one. Its not even worth me going on about. Someone needs to point out the issues but at this point it doesnt matter anyway. Decisions have been made about the game regardless of what long time fans thought or think now.

So you dont like the game? Thats funny because you sure post in here a lot , and you also say it is not even worth you going on about , so I guess we wont be seeing you back in here again then?

I'll see if I can prod our producers to answer some questions on that.

Aside from EASBA and Legendary mode which were the main focus for this year, I'm not educated enough on the modes and changes made this year to give you a very good answer.

2 Thumbs up on the Legendary mode....A pleasant surprise to start the demo, hopefully It will be a great game mode on the actual release
