You're welcome. :)

1. Yes, player and team chemistry is still there.
2. I'm pretty sure it's still just three for three.
3. Unfortunately not.

I just wet my pants after seeing what Dynasty mode has to offer and Own the Paint in creating a go-to-move.

Gee, nice report! Highly anticipating 08 now, and I hope as hell the new interface is implemented on PC. Anyway, the new push system does sound like a reply to the fans' cries, and I can't wait to use that new play-by-play sim! A huge step forward in terms of features this year.

Thanks guys, glad you liked the report. :)

As far as I could tell it's still set to 82 games for Dynasty Mode but I'll have to doublecheck that. That does appear to be the case though.

hmm, i dont like that much. i like to play multiple seasons but at 82 games i will only actually finish one. it does change how i run a team as i have no time to rebuild. sure this could be fixed by simming anywhere between 50 and 75% of the games but i hate to do that, computer usually screws up my stats lol. then there is the option to lessen the minutes as i play a full 48. hmm oh well i guess

I'll doublecheck that as I could be mistaken. You could always use sim intervention now that it allows you to jump in at any time, that might be preferable to simming games entirely.

They'll still have it but I'm not sure if it will be the same as the Xbox 360/PS3 sim intervention.

Is the gameplay and player movement the same as last year, Andrew? Does it resemble basketball and/or actual human movement this year?

Seems like the Dynasty Story part of the forums might once again be back at it's best with the news. (Y) Hopefully Dynasty mode on PC wont be a flop...

No, only if you're holding the defensive assist button. It can be annoying but then I was holding it like the traditional "defensive stance" button in previous games which it's not really designed for. At any rate, if you're not holding that button you won't automatically switch on defense.

Yes, if that player has a signature shot in the game.
