Are you getting the hang of the shot stick? I'm struggling with the aiming part, lol.

Funny thing is when I aim up it's almost always dead on 90 degrees but when I aim down it's pretty far off.

I also had this funny sequence where I had a wide open shot in the corner but I didn't know whether I wanted to shoot with the stick up or down so I sort of had a brain freeze for a second.

Right now it's a whole bunch of confusion but I'm liking it lol. That and the timing of layups is bringing a whole new layer of skill to the game. I can't wait to get the full game and start playing next week.

I'm getting the hang of the shot stick, it's pretty nice I like it. I like the different buttons for different passes, that's cool.

Defense is much harder this year it seems, although these are generic 2K dudes in the 2KU tutorial.

To my defensive minded players...

Make sure your finger is OFF the LT when you're using the hands up animation. Otherwise, you'll use one of the RS steal attempts.

I keep looking at my controller to make sure that I know where the center of down is, lol.

Anybody know true size of prelude. It said around 15 gb at first but now that it's downloading it is saying 4.921 gbs. My internet runs off of a toaster basically so 15 gbs would take me about 2 days and some change.

I was messing around in the post a bit in the 2KU and it is NICE this year. Much more smooth and I felt that I was able to branch out much better into an up and under or something like that. My ONLY complaint about the whole game (so far) is the animation of the follow through for the big white guy's(#5 I think on the team you are placed on) shimmy hook haha. He's a lefty and I did a shimmy hook with the right hand and he did the hook correctly but almost as soon as the ball left his fingertips, his left hand went up as if he had just followed through on a jumpshot haha. I don't know if that's an animation glitch or not. Nothing big but besides that, I'm impressed so far!

Still not sure how fadeaways work with the directional shot stick thing, I feel like sometimes it's there but other times its just time based

I'm loving these new additions, the game feels more alive with like timing the layup instead of just feeling like you're watching animations

Ugh...the step back out of the triple threat might be the next My Park cheese move.

The touch pass does make some nice, zippy passes. You can whip the ball around the perimeter quick!

Are you still able to hand the ball off?

The controls feel soooooo different!! Very fluid!! I have to learn the controls all over again cause so far the "feel" of the characters are like night and day in comparison with 2k16 so far...

i' m loving the directional steals with the R stick and the rebounding.
So far shooting with the R stick is hard as hell lol, but i'll get the hang of it.

2kU is like if that cousin that kept snatching the controller out of your hand became a game mode.

Yeah, that's still in there.
