They had this same pass in 2K13.

Maybe there will actually be some velocity to it and all other passes this year...

It is in. Very difficult to do because of the tight timing window.

I'am also hoping that the player you control will never do flashy passes without your input. Like sometimes your player will decide to bounce pass on it's own when you just wanted a regular pass.

User had begged for years for more contextual bounce passes. If they do it your way people who don't know how to trigger it manually would never see one even if it is the most appropriate pass and would think the game was broken.

Users used to beg for more contextual bounce pass when you coudn't manually bounce pass I think lol.

I mean if they don't even check the controls of the game they're paying for that's their own fault. That's way too much assistance.

I like that we can do these on command now; more user control for passes is a good thing. I'd like to know if they have a strategy element to them besides the aesthetic value; if we do a no-look or a pass fake, could a defender bite on it and make a steal attempt in the wrong direction, or at least freeze in indecision? That would give more depth to it. Also, I'd like to know if these passes are less accurate than regular passes. I'm thinking the flashier the pass(behind the back, between the legs, etc.) the more likely it should be fumbled. It would also be good if you attempt a flashy pass with Kendrick Perkins or somebody he'd miss his target entirely sometimes.

Nothing about current gen can really excite me at this point.

you mean fake pass into a shot/layup?

u really mean that?

and the ability to do flashy passes on command?



It's gonna be awesome being a small 5.9-6.0 point guard and pulling fake moves on the big guys.

Re: NBA 2K14 Screenshot - Flashy Pass (Current-Gen)

Czar, do we travel if we miss the oportunity to either pass or shoot? That would be neat.

I don't want sound like that guy but 2k means to tell me we only get tighter jerseys on Nex Gen

[exposedaking]

And the number placement is still off on heat jerseys. They had it right in past games. I wonder why they changed it?

I think the point now is that you can decide yourself when you want to throw one.

exactly, giving the user more options is always a good thing in my book.

I hope this means we either 1. Be able to throw bullet passes with this pass stick system or 2. Get Some other control that allows us to throw bullet passes.

Flashy passes have always been a funny thing in 2K. I know they're out there, but they seem to happen so rarely (for those of us not using a Rondo, Paul, Or James) that it doesn't quite feel like it's something 2K's ever really contributed time toward.

I'd appreciate if that screenshot meant that aspect was brushed up a bit to trigger more naturally and seamlessly. Often it seems a sick pass could make sense on a fast break, only to be dealt a two hand overhead delivery. More of this would be funky:

That was sick

Proof of 2k going for the sexy moves rather than working on the basics? So in this case "including" flashy passing - separate button or whatever - yet normal passing is not even worked out - no separate button for a simple over the top or bounce pass?
