    People need to stop complaining about the CPU cheating to steal their passes. We have known for some time now that the CPU gets a +10 boost in everyone of their individual ratings on HOF difficulty. To combat this, you'll need to lower the quickness slider, so you can nerf the unrealistic defensive recovery speed. You would even have to do this if you were the commish of an OA and you're just playing against humans. This is the only way right now, for the passing speed and the defensive recovery speed to be in the correct proportion. For 2K14, we must have faster passing, and they need to improve the passing animations. Too many of them are stiff, especially the touch passing on the perimeter. They need to be smooth.

    They also need to improve the 'A' button passing. No matter how good icon passing is, the direct passing needs to be the better and preferred form of passing. You can't bounce pass with icon passing and I sometimes make mistakes with icon passing, like passing it backwards for a backcourt violation because of substitutions or passing it to a covered player when there was a player cutting to the rim. When I run the pick and roll, I should be able to use direct passing reliably and not have to rely on icon passing (again, can't manually bounce pass). By doing the latter, I lose the option to immediately rise up for a jumpshot, because for that to happen, I would have to first click R2 to take the icons off, and THEN shoot. By the time I've done that, the defense would have probably closed the space I've created off the pick. Icon passing LIMITS what I can do.

    On bounce passing, not everyone in the game should be throwing left handed bounce passes like Rubio. I hardly ever see any two handed bounce passes. There needs to be more differentiation.

    Let the user be able to do handoff passes like the CPU. Cut out these horrible looking one foot passes. Just let us do a handoff instead.

    The lob passes need to be faster.
    Nobody said they were in hall of fame and if you go play My Career you can't adjust anything with the speed or quickness ..everything you said might be true but it's beyond that

      I do about 30% icon passing and 70% RS passing. My RS passes have more zip and dont get tipped as often.

      Off-ball movement for passes feels wonky at times this year. Good shooters open on the wing suddenly jumping into traffic, pick and pop shooter running past the open spot into traffic, and open players down in the paint running away from the hoop.

        They need to modify the game so that you can't pass the ball before you actually have it. I'm running on the fast break and I call for the ball and the team mate passes it to me but as soon as I get it I pass it back to him for a half-court violation. Wtf?

          How are you supposed to do a touch pass then? They should probably just give you a cancel pass button.

              Thank you! Passing is terrible in this game especially when my MP is getting doubled. Try to pass out and it gets magically tipped. I got video proof and its like a invisible barrier that's hitting the ball.

              Go back to 2K11 passing and tone the CPU reaction time a little bit. They make you do the dumbest passes.

                The passing is horrible in this game. I don't know if the passing mechanic is broken or the CPU just tries to cheese it, but I hate when I pass the ball to an open teammate when I'm running play, the damn ball curves....Hell I didn't know 2K added curve ball passing into this game.

                Now I can't block dunks and pass the ball, what's going on?

                  Why would you want touch passing in MyCareer? It's only asking for trouble...

                    Re: Passing is horrible in this game.

                    I agree. The passing in this game is horrible. The catch animations are just as bad. There's too much "Sliding" when the receiver is about to catch the pass a lot of times. Icon lead passing is bogus also and has taken a step back.

                    I hate when you pass the ball to a wide open teammate and as soon as you pass the ball, he suddenly moves towards the defense. Or when you pass to a teammate on the move a few feet away from you, they magically change direction to receive the ball right next to you. A lot of these catch animations messes up court spacing for real.

                    The catch animations and passing need to be on the top of 2k's fix list for 2k14 and beyond.

                      Re: Passing is horrible in this game.

                      I know a lot of people wouldn't want that, but to be honest, I wouldn't mind they skip 2k14 to get everything right, or even to rebuild the game. I played 2K11 until 2k13 came out because 2k12 is just that bad. But who am I kidding, 2K is too money greedy to do that anyway.

                        Another thing I wish 2K would fix: I pass the ball to a sprinting player on a fastbreak or lead pass and the player will catch the ball, stop on a dime (impossible) then shoot a jumper. In actuality it should have been a layup or dunk animation.

                          Re: Passing is horrible in this game.

                          the ONLY problem i have with passing.... ok the only two problems i have with passing are:

                          1. When using X (ps3) button to pass, the target man usually moves (creating turnovers) for example.. I run with the trailblazers, whenever i try to pass to Batum or Matthews in the corner for an open 3, i hit X and they cut to the basket simultaneously... WTF

                          2. Passing while in the paint... those BS passes from a guard through 2 or 3 defenders to a big... that doesnt happen.. (im guilty of it too, but im trying not to abuse it) ie.... Chris Paul and either Blake or DeAndre

                          Im content with the direct passing, although i wish it were easier to make flare passes to the corner after a back screen or to catch a defender cheating.
                          I used to put important things here

                            Do OA's not get patched? My OA it's way too easy to pass inside. It's on All star. My only other complaint is the terrible directional passing. I press left for a cutter and it goes to a guy backcourt on my right. It's been real bad like that since 2k12.

                                Reading this thread just reminded me I have plenty of issues with passing. I got double teamed in the post with Marc Gasol, had good spacing so i intended to kick it out to Iguodala for the wide open 3, no one in my league rotates defensively...he cuts right when I pass it(I'm like "ok, looks like a good opportunity" next thing pass sails over his head and all the way into the backcourt smh. Probably would've scored with Gasol on the double too. But I get penalized for making the smart play.
