Shit that was the best thing they could've done....shooting with the right stick is just fucking crazy....keep it for the crossover moves

o, you one of those type of niggaz. my brothaz n a few of the homies couldn't use the shot stick neither .

man i loved the shot stick, especially on 2k10/2k11.once u mastered the release you wasn't missing for shit. i'll miss that shit.

so now niggaz are gonna use 2 sticks to dribble, instead of one?

one question , how u gonna shoot, if you're using 2 hands to dribble???

But on the cool I gotta preorder my copy

The shot stick is still there. You just have to use the left trigger like the usual.

2k developers da goat. They actually listen to the negative shit fans have to say and they know the defense was TRASH last year. Hopefully This will have the balance 2k11 did...

 

[marc123]

2k12 sucked

 

[Mally_G]

sounds like they've gone with the old NBA Live and NCAA March Madness 2005 dribble controls

 

[Melanin_Enriched]

This nigga no signed me when i'm right?

Fuck what yall talking about, that shit looks beautiful. Niggas love to complain, if shit is different, adjust to it.

 

[huey]

it would be cool if you could pick your control configuration to whatever style you like best

i no-signed u, cause i didn't like the idea.

Fuck what yall talking about, that shit looks beautiful.  Niggas love to complain, if shit is different, adjust to it.

the fuck is u talking about nigga?

so how are we gonna hop step? tear drop? runner? euro step? floaters? turn around jump shot? escape dribble pull up?  step back jumper?  shimmy? double shimmy? post hop shot? post step back shot? drop step lay up/ dunk? running hook?  up and under? mid air change shots? etc etc.

NBA 2k12 was the most complete basketball simulation game, when it came to the various arrays of shots. i gives a fuck about dribbling , this ain't street ball. this is NBA simulation.

i like what they did on defense, that was a must. i'll give credit when due.

Most of the shots you named was done by holding down the left trigger and using the right stick.

I knew there would be a lot of questions/concerns regarding today's announcements, especially regarding the Control Stick, so I just wanted to give a few more details.

The Shot button is still there and more fully featured than in past versions. So if you choose, you can use the Right Stick for dribble moves and do all your shots with the face buttons. A lot of guys in the office prefer to play this way. In case you missed it, B (CIRCLE) is a Hop Step button again.

There's an option to toggle the default behavior of the Control Stick. So you can make the Right Stick Shot Stick by default, and then hold LT (L2) to activate Isomotion.

There are options to choose camera-relative vs. absolute control for both Shots and Isomotion independently.

You can perform basic dribble moves with the Left Stick as well. Of course, you won't have near the same level of control as you would with the Right Stick, but it's a pretty complete arsenal of moves... including sizeups (tap the Left Stick side to side.)

Bottom line, we're giving you the ability to play the way you want to play 2K13. If you adopt the Control Stick fully, you'll have more control over your player than any basketball has ever given in the past... hands down. But if you want a more casual pick up and play experience, we accommodate that as well. Hope that answers some questions.

okay say left trigger and shot stick = pull up jump shot in 2k12

in 2k13 it might = regular jump shot.

the point i'm trying to make is, in 2k13 alot of shots might get left out.or say u driving the lane and want to execute a runner, instead pull a regular lay up on some random shit.

while in 2k12 the shooting was more absolute,

@bawsedlox do you really think they would get rid of all those things? Obviously there will be another way to do them, as I said before niggas love to complain, do you want the game to be the same every year?

 

[goodlookinout]

Niggas be cheatin online that's all I gotta say #saltyniggapost

 

[KNiGHTS]

Am I imagining shit or wasn't this a control scheme about four 2Ks ago? Feels like they keep pick-and-pulling options to make it seem like they're upgrading stuff.
