    Floater controls

    Just wondering everyones thoughts on floater controls...

    Do you like floaters being tied to the stick or do you prefer a button combination? A lot of the smaller quick guards in the league do these in tight spaces....and not always with momentum like what's required to pull one off in 2k...it might also help with the use of the more craftier finishers like IT and Lowry...

    What do you guys thInk? How would you map it?

    I like how it is especially with absolute controls . However the animation can be a little slow for a floater .

      The control for a floater is really intuitive and works well. But ever since they removed the ability to choose your floater animation, I noticed how much harder it was to get a good floater off. It's usually a slow animation that just gets blocked, especially this year. Floaters need to get off faster, and while they're fixing that they should also bring back choosing your own floater again.

        I like the way floaters are but I do wish you could put up some w/o haven't momentum. But I love it tied to the stick on absolute.

          Loved the 2k13 floater combination. They were more deadly, but harder to pull off as you had to time the distance and use a combination half the players struggled with. it was bad in 14 and 15, but this year it's improved a bit

            I appreciate the current controls but would like to see the animations improved to be more effective in context

              One of my favorite moves this year are a floaters/runners. Take note that success on making them depends on the release timing like shots, even though there is no shot meter.

              Captured some of the nicest floater I've done ever in 2k series

                I like it but I wish I didn't only have the option to do it while driving down the lany

                  I love using Floaters the way they are but sometimes they seem wildly inconsistent. I'll miss the most simple, close range ones one possession then throw up a much farther, one legged really high arching one that banks right in the next possession lol

                    I dont love it. I dont feel like i can pull off the move in enough situations like, for example: hop step into a floater or euro into a floater.

                      Some players have it tied down to their hopstep or euro animations. Drose's layup package for example.

                        But id hate to be trying to go up strong with a strong finisher and get something else. Control is paramount.

                          I wish it was a button combination because plenty of players do floaters from a standstill. When bigs do it, it looks like a half hook but it's not. Best example is Kosta Koufas constantly does floaters and is pretty damn good at it but it is made to look like a half hook which takes a long time to set up

                            Can you make a floater with buttons only?

                              That's the same way I feel. I wish there was move when standing still. I just still how people use the mid range game. Like someone like a CP3 or IT. Even big guys like Bogut or TT use the floater in the lane. Can't do that in this game.
