NBA 2K13 - Some Clarity on the Control Stick

Re: NBA 2K13 - Some Clarity on the Control Stick

I wish for the demo we could just shoot around to get used to the completely new offensive controls but I doubt it will happen.

I'd like this. A shootaround in the demo to go along with the regular five minute quarter. That would really get people amped and ready for the game.

Okay, so if you use L2 to modify between shot stick and control stick, how do you enter triple threat?

When you catch the ball, you enter triple threat. Move RS to jab, stepover, initiate dribble, or do a standing spin launch (Amare-style)

Makes sense.

Hey beluba random question I have about gameplay , is it possible to do shimmy into hooks like in 2K10 this year?

Re: Some Clarity on the Control Stick

"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."

i'll be doing this. nice. it'll be just like 2k12 but with L2 and right stick.

Thought the EXACT same thing when I read that part.

Don't you use the LS for triple threat moves like jab step and stuff?

Re: Some Clarity on the Control Stick

I hope the isomotion wont be changed too much from 2k12 because I like 2k12's dribbling system...but then again, I've pretty much mastered it so I guess I would like it to stay...And about the fake passes...If you play guys online who love the spam steal, and jump passing lanes, its very effective..and if they play man to man, it can make them move back a bit and give you space for a jumper..but basically when you're playing somebody who's really frantic on defense, it gives them fits, lol...

Yes, but you had to hold down L2 to do that otherwise you'd just start dribbling in a particular direction.

Now L2 shifts the RS from controlling your advanced dribbling to the shot stick or vice versa depending on your preference. Just wanted clarification on how triple threat worked now.
