Release Date: November 4, 2010
NBA Elite 11 is the next installment of the basketball series, formerly known as NBA Live. The biggest novelty is the "Hands-On Control" control system which allows the player to take full control of the player. This mechanics uses two analogues, which are used to control the upper and lower parts of the athlete's body.
NBA ELITE 11, the next evolution in the NBA LIVE series, will revolutionize the way basketball simulation games are played, with an all-new technology base, a new control scheme and a real-time physics system.
Using the design principles from some of EA SPORTS top rated franchises, NBA ELITE 11 introduces several significant gameplay changes that center around control. The new ‘Hands-On Control’ scheme allows for one-to-one responsiveness of a player’s movement and actions on the court, as opposed to traditional predetermined animations that require s to wait while a scenario played out before making the next move. Hands-on Control applies to everything within a player’s offensive and defensive arsenal, including: dribble moves, dunks, drives to the basket, fadeaways, mid-air adjustments, blocks, steals and more.
The new real-time physics system in NBA ELITE 11 allows each player on the court to move independently of one another, removing the two-man interactions that have long taken the control out of basketball simulation videogames. In addition, a new skill-based shooting system requires accurate input, based on a player’s position on the court, versus the randomly generated dice rolls that have driven shooting in basketball videogames in the past.
