Nah. Good idea though !

Has anyone ever tried the sliders by makeufamous? That guy did an amazing job of eliminating some suction from the game. Highly recommend you watch his youtube vids and try his sliders.

Ahh OS. You never fail to disappoint.

You can't keep throwing animations at the game. It's like trying to build a neural network with strictly if-else statements. There are mathematical solutions available.. It would take the game to the next level and quite frankly the playability of Team Play is deteriorating rapidly from the massive amounts of disgustingly elaborate and/or inappropriate animations.

Understood. But you got to give credit when it's due. There using a more physics-based engine this year. Therefore adding to an already solid animation system.

ppl always ask that a game delivers on a new engine, but what i think is that they fail to realize that that is not always the best solutions to deliver on a better experience.EA sports got a rude awakening that a bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bushes with nba elite.1000 new animations to a define physics engine upgrades can make a hell of a lot of difference as to the look n feel of a game with a development cycle of a year or less.kinda hate to admit it but grandma u were right when u say "if something is not broken don't fix it".
a new engine for a sports game is so overrated and 2k's engine is not broken it just needs a bit more refinements and adjustments so i welcome the 1000 n polish to what was considered the best sports game of all time(nba 2k11)

With all the additions they make, technically this almost is a new engine. I really see no reason for a complete overhaul unless:

A. The technology allows (which it this case with the current consoles it doesn't)
B. The engine needs (which it this case once again, doesn't need it)
