Re: NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

Is there any way to disengage when a defender locks you into an animation in the paint? I've gotten called for 3 seconds twice now in one game in My Player because I try to run the play and a defender cuts me off as I'm crossing the paint and I just can't move anymore.

Man that happens way too often. As soon as the defender touches you, he bumps you and it happens over and over again.

How do you pull of the dream shake with Olayuwon?

Re: NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

I finally have most of the dribble, flick-flick, and post moves to where I want them. Bunch of hours in practice mode. That being said, Charlie Villaneuva pulled a move on me that I can only reproduce in practice mode very randomly.

Middle of the paint: He pump faked while facing the basket, then pivot spin to his left into a shot.

What I recreated (with Garnett) is a post up from the low block, fake shot driving the lane (using the RT flick to the basket) then spin back to the baseline into a layup. I can do this about 20% of the time (the rest of the time it turns into the up and under).

Can anyone tell me how to do the face-up pump fake into a spin?

How do you perform a hook shot around the key (a center, Magic Johnson, etc.)? I know you hold the shot stick away from the basket but I'm rarely getting hooks. I'm mostly getting an awkward pause from motion that turns into a stand still and an inappropriate set shot.

Hi, actually to do hooks you have to aim it right or left TOWARDS the basket. Away will mostlikely perform a fadeway. What you seem to also do wrong and that's why you oftenly get this animation is that you're not aiming at the right/left enough. I suggest you try to be very carefull at where your player is relative to your camera angle and really aim right/left and towards the basket. I still get this animation sometimes but I really feel it is because I haven't been precise or focused enough.

e/ Where you talking on the post or when you are crossing the key?

In the case of Magic Johnson's signature hook and Kareem's skyhook, they have a "hot spot" on the elbow. ATM.

The controls be crazy but sexy at same time. My grandma could not do it, but she's been dead for 8 years and I live in her room now.

Re: NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

Lol, what I meant was:

The controls are mighty nuts and overwhelming at first glance; and even after playing for a while.

But after a week or two, or a few days, or once my bi-weekly check came; I began to 'sexify' these controls; and I was chaining moves together not unlike the taco that I was trying to retrieve on the other side of the chain link fence in New Orleans on Lesseps a few months back.


About grams, I tried to get her to play, and this even stems back from last year when 2k11 came out. She could just never really grasp the game at all, let alone the controller (perhaps because she is a spirit now) so she never really faired well. She did properly execute a charge one day though on 2k11 (although it could have been the dog; I was in the kitchen pouring some OJ for all of us).

Moreover; the controls ain't bad. I just hate the bumps and how fast defensive players move sometimes when I am inside of them.

RIP Grandma

Oh, and I live here now.

I thought she was dead for 8 years. Were you playing 2K11 with her ghost?

Well, he did say she was there in spirit. Ha Ha. I'm not sure how she's drinking the OJ though. Great Post!
