So, EA is going to wait 'til the 2011-12 season to release the game. Wow, gutsy move. Seems like a smart decision for the long term outlook of the franchise. Hopefully, they use this time to combine what they were developing for Elite 11 with what they had going for them w/Live 10. I've not bought both BBall titles in a few years, but still, I like parity, variety, and choice. Here's hoping they use this additional time wisely.

Anyway.....getting back on topic here. Gamestop website says March 31st for $59.99. Clearly....that price will have to be cut in half.
I think a really smart thing for EA to do would be to hold another community day.
IDK if they're actually cancelling Elite 11 and releasing Elite 12 next October (makes the most sense to me), but regardless I think it would be a good idea to get some of the guys from this community that know basketball (23, Czar, Pared, DC, etc) and get their input again. It definitely wouldn't hurt at this point.
Just ignore the idiots. Best thing you can do because there's going to be a few people that want to pile on all of the negative EA press right now.

I completely understand that not everyone is alike. That wasn't the point. The point is that you are completely willing to spend 60 bucks on a product that by the maker's own admission is not up to standard. Is it the name of the company that makes you willing to do that?

Dont know if this has been brought up, but I wonder if this could mean the return of NCAA Basketball next year as well? Maybe they are working on it too..?
Also, this is too bad. I really enjoyed Live 10, but in all honesty - Elite 11 just didn't look good at all.

$30 or release Oct 2011
dang that really upset me, i was looking forward to using the new controls on Elite, yall could have at least try to fix some of things in a patch or something. Well with this extra time i hope its alot better then what yall put in the demo since some ppl have to suffer with no EA bball game. And plz keep the new controls, i mean u can have both formats like you did on the demo when it comes to control wise. other then that do what you got to do just don't mess with the control scheme again leave the options as it is already.

guys, this March release date has NOT been confirmed. Just because GameStop has it on their site, doesn't mean it's an official release date. Let's be patient and wait to hear an official word from EA.

March 31st? Ouch. Then again, if you're gonna delay release, might as well do it till the playoffs are right around the corner (mid-April). I'd imagine sales in general pick up around that time.

Honestly I don't want to see a game in March and then another in October. That is too much like FIFA how they release 2 games in a year with little difference between the two.
I rather they spend a whole year on 12, then spend more time on 11 and then spend 6 months on 12. Because IMO, 12 will get the short end of the stick if they release 2 nba games 6 months apart.
Because then it would be like, what the hell will they have to show for E3 then ? Who knows if PS Move and Kinect takes off, they might use both of those devices in Elite 12 control scheme.

Wow this thread is like a graveyard for trolls
Mad Props to listening to the Community on this one EA, it will pay off in the end. It may not show itself in the form of units sold for Elite 11 but laying the ground work for a solid franchise is the most important thing that can be done.
Now here is the $10,000 question, Will EA be bringing along more Employees to work on Elite or will the same amount of guys be working on this. I ask this because Delaying a annual game will stunt the growth of the next ittteration. 6 months is just not enough time push out a game.
