Using the Glass

Just a quick update, fellas. I think I posted a couple months ago that we were leaning toward making bank shots contextual instead of user-controlled. Well, we've decided to go the user-controlled route and it's working pretty well.

The cool thing is that it's not only working on jumpers, but for layups as well. So for everyone who complained about the lack of bank shots last year... it's all in your hands now.

Signature shot arcs are in the game now too. Pretty cool stuff.

Re: Using the Glass

How do you do the bank shot or use glass on layups?

What is it like being the man???? That is great news, I prefer to have the option to do that especially on pull up jumpers.

If your left analog stick is deflected in any direction at the time you release the ball, your player will try to go glass. If it's neutral, he won't. It becomes 2nd nature after playing with it for a while.

Experienced players will also find some small benefits to using glass in the proper context. It's kind of hardcore, but makes for a nice little game within the game.

Re: Using the Glass

Sounds good Mike, know that I'm giving Live a shot next year JUST BECAUSE OF YOU. No other reason, I trust that you guys are going to take this game where it should be.

Re: Using the Glass
