[yungflo]

like i said before its obvious on the easiest difficulty, thats why the defense looks bad but it looks like a step in the right direction though.

"This can't be all. EA's holding something back. Just you wait, Friday."

"It looks great! Except for some colors."

"This was hurried-- EA just didn't have time to put together a proper video."

"No one cares if Steve Nash looks terrible anyway."

"I like my next-gen basketball games to look like 4 year old current-gen games."


Wow. I've never seen denial played out in such a clear, predictable, textbook manner before.

There's only so much you're going to get out of a 9 second clip, so I wouldn't read too far into it one way or the other, but I watched the high-res version of the teaser a handful of times and of what we were shown there were more positives than negatives. For starters, the court spacing and the physical proportions of the players are spot on. I've read complaints of the models appearing too "skinny" and wonder if the posters in question actually watch NBA games. Its players, for the most part, are a thin and lanky group. Live captures this more accurately than they are given credit for. Jerseys are tight and snug as they should be. Subtle movement in the tops, with more give and sway in the bottoms. Steve Nash looks like Steve Nash. The video is poor quality relative to what we'll all be playing on in our living/gaming rooms, so the minute details such as wrinkles and blemishes are absent, but it's accurate beyond that. I also like how his face and eyes appear alive and alert. You'll notice his eyes follow the roll man(Pau), and then leave the roll man and shift to the basket when he shoots the floater. With the exception of the rails being too high, the Rose garden was done well. The arena and atmosphere in general look to be a step up from current generation titles. The bench is full, officials are present and properly positioned, there are camera men on the baseline, etc. Could definitely use more media at the table though. The Blazers P&R defense is structurally correct, as are most of the ensuing reactions after Nash accepts the pick. Lillard fights through Pau, Pau then rotates, drawing Aldridge with him. Kamen's man, Robin Lopez rotates off of him into the paint to block off the rim, forcing Nash to take a floater instead of a layup. My only question would be why Lillard is walking after fighting through the pick? Could be user era or poor defensive AI that goes along with lower difficulty settings, but it looks off. Also, the movement of the video looked a little whacky. I think it was slown down. The lighting looked a little off, and the colors washed out. This seems to be an issue consistent throughout EA sports titles. I wish they'd fix it. Anyways, kudos to EA for doing as the community asked and releasing a 5v5 gameplay video, things are looking good thus far. The competition may very well still release a better game(I expect this to be the case), but Live looks to be laying down a reliable foundation for future iterations of the title. I'm excited to see more on Friday.

Of anything that could've gone wrong in a 9 second clip, everything did go wrong. Just imagine if there's errors already in a 9 second clip how many there could potentially be in a trailer version. It's not nit picking, hating or nothing like that I'm all for EA putting out it's best game and I hope they do. It's just stating opinions / being honest based off what EA has provided and what they were happy with. Yes there's some positives like courts, lighting and crowd interaction but that crab walking from Lillard and Aldridge totally throws off what postivies they do have going for the game. Still.... they haven't released the trailer yet so ill save final opinion for that.
