Love the UI, cut scenes and how nicely organized everything is!!! Well done Gary and WS, can't wait for this one. (and I'm really not much of an NBA fan)

The new UI is fantastic!!!!

I am a bit of a cynic and I wasn't expecting much in terms of the UI and all I can say is wow!!!!

All the info at your fingertips in a clean and organized way.

The cut scenes look like a lot of fun as well.

Your first video pushed me from on the fence to must buy. It was that good!

Can't wait to see the second video.
_______________________________

Quick question on the new coaching sliders. Does this mean there is a bigger scale or more nuance? What I mean is in previous versions, you could put full court defense from 1-10. With the slider is it more like 1-100? Or is it allowing for decimals so if you move it slightly past 5, its like 5.5 out of ten?

Thanks again for the video. Honestly, I didn't want it to end. Can't wait to see the next one.

Congrats on your upcoming version, looks like the best one yet.

No its still the same scale its just more user friendly to do things with the slider than asking you to input numbers :)

And I am glad we could wow you! The cut scenes are going to be so much fun (and for those of you who don't like fun you can hit ESC to skip them) - some of them will be different when you go to them (that will make more sense when you see them) and you will also be able to change out the music in case there might be some other kind of basketball theme music that you enjoy ;)

It looked amazing! Definitely going to buy for the 6th year in a row, my only question is will there ever be a create-a-player(free agent) or create-a-player(prospect) feature in the game without having to use the MS access database? I think that would be cool and it would take a lot of work out of doing it the long was (as well as being able to choose your own face lol.

Gary, how are you?
I don´t know if this is the correct place to post it but I need to ask you something for this next version of the game. I have been playing Fast Break Basketball and by far your game is much more realistic and deep. However Fast Break has an option that let you change the season dependind on the period of time. Let me explain better....in the beginning of the 80s a few players tried 3 point shots and of course the average invcreased a lot the last years. So during the game when you simulate several seasons it happens too. It would be great to be able to adjust these options during the seasons like pace, 3 point shot, rebounds, etc.

Regardless of that I am buying this game for sure.
Thank you so much1

They do seem pretty neat. But unless there are cutscenes that are integral to the game, still might be an idea to put an option in to disable them completely instead of having to ESC past them. That would be a little timesaver for "those of you who don't like fun"!!! :)
