You are just arguing for the sake of arguing at this point. It takes a second of analysis to realize these are two different situations.

I believe 23 was the one who said some of his gamer friends like dunk fest and they should be able to play that way if they so choose(23 please feel free to correct me if that wasn't you). I don't disagree and I'm not against sliders. The only thing we disagree about is what can be deemed "realistic" or "SIM".

Sure there's a difference being that sliders give you way more control than this option. However both sliders and this option would give you the options to experience the game differently in that way they are similar. However if you are saying to me don't be a SIM Nazi forcing every single player to play the same brand of basketball. Don't you think it's just a tidbit contradictory to turn around a condemn this option just because we both deem it pointless?

My apologizes. I certainly wouldn't want my name added to something that I didn't do. I try to not be so lazy and make such statements on recall, but I'm at work and don't really have the time to research who it was.

I feel myself actually getting frustrated with your point of view. It's been stated many times that you are the only one who thinks this way. When six people don't agree with you, that means you're WRONG, But you just can't accept that, can you.

Off ball movement and sliders are not even in the same galaxy of conversation. Just like Aholbert32 has said MANY times. That dude has been around since 2002! Your argument and point of view hold little credibility to his. Not to mention several others have laughed and pointed out the flaw in your argument.

Off ball movement should not be an option. That is something key and crucial that needs to be there. This shouldn't even be a debate. Unless NBA Live is trying to make a hybrid NBA Jam/NBA simulation then there's no need to toggle off ball movement. Run plays? Sure. But having your players stand around like statues is not what basketball is. Not even going to try and understand what the developers were thinking on this one.

Seriously Da Throne, you seem like an alright dude, but you need to drop this argument before everyone on this board starts avoiding you like the Ebola virus

That was due to them God awful dudes on the sticks. They made it look bad. I don't think it was the game itself. Dude took a terrible shot and the other dude was playing even worse defense.

I understand your assessment of this, but you cannot say the same for the animations they still have in this game that will continue to affect them. The game will never be able to lift off the ground until they address these issues ASAP! Those weird animations make the gameplay seem off and unnatural.

NBA LIVE has been trying to use this engine of gameplay since ELITE 11, they need to try and build a whole nother Engine from the ground up, or use another one, because i truely feel that NBA LIVE 09-10 has better graphics seriously.

Starting with the excuses already, huh? Building up that equity early I see.

All leaked videos have terrible players.

Being a terrible player has nothing to do with 4 CPU-controlled teammates and 4 CPU-controlled opponents not going for a rebound while the ball drops to the ground in between them. Eight players letting that ball drop is just bad AI no matter how you slice it.

Back in Live 2005 you could tap rebounds until the ball went in or someone secured it. That's 10 years ago man.

I'm tired of these conversations about off-ball movement too. Last gen you could set your offense type and they'd run their sets regardless if you called a play or not.

Why are we taking steps back when the technology is more powerful?

Instead of making excuses, hold these guys accountable because this stuff is just flat out unacceptable. These are core aspects of gameplay. Not Sim stuff. Not fluff. Core fundamentals. And they're skimping on them.
