NBA Elite 11 Community Day

[Patr1ck]

I attended the NBA Elite 11 Community Day held at EA Canada along with 5 members from OS. I wrote a short recap of the event.

So does it move and look like a real game? I'm lookin forward to reading your next report!!!

Live 10 looked like a real game when the animations flowed well. It never felt like one, though.

Good stuff, Pat. Appreciate you representing us as the event.

Just a reminder to everyone that that Pat can't talk about the game yet, so please hold onto your questions until the embargo has been lifted. We'll be sure to let you know when that time comes.

For all the people who thought that they didn't know basketball, guess again. We played against them on their NBA regulation court and these fellas could ball. One of them even threw down a nasty dunk on a fast break. Having not played full court basketball since I can remember, I was soar for two days after playing.

What the? No elbow to the face or stomach, or the a knee/kick to the balls of the EA peeplz? Why didn't you give them the PDub "special"?

[Andrew]

I must admit I'm envious that Pat got to play against the devs. A few of us that attended previous events were definitely keen for that but unfortunately it didn't materialise.

FYI, I've added a Community Event section on the NBA Elite 11 subsite:

Pat actually has pretty good jumper on him. The game looks realy good and I think it will change the way we play basketball video games from now on.

[Patr1ck]

Thanks man. You have some freakish ups.

In case anyone isn't aware, Sovartus was one of the OS members who also attended the event.

[Sovartus]

Those use to be freakish dunks but I can't do it like I use to anymore! LOL

[Andrew]

Good to see you check in Sovartus, looking forward to your impressions too when the time comes.

[ThaLiveKing]

Yeah can't wait to read some info, and also E3 Is around the corner so maybe sooner than expected lol

[Patr1ck]

Elite 11 at E3 will be a closed presentation from what I heard.
