Euro Step in 2K15

And then when I WANT to do the euro step with a player like Harden with the Pro Stick I can't because 9 times out of 10 he'll do a floater. Smh.

How is this any different than double tapping for spin layup cheese then?

Now this year, we have two double tap combinations for the spin layup!

I don't really see what the fuss is, I haven't had much trouble, if any, executing a eurostep with the shot-stick. 4-5 o'clock or 7-8 o'clock respective to the direction your player is facing.

The implementation was perfect for last gen 2k14 using broadcast view / camera relative. The above poster has a point about the new controls in 2k15 to make it more rare because there are people that abused the euro animation for reckless drives thst were rewarded with fouls even when missed.

Agreed, however more players are very capable of spin moves than euro steps. I'm not saying they should do them, but most of the league has a spin they are comfortable with given the situation, of course. There's no chance most of the league can euro.

Ideally players who can't euro would do a terrible iteration and clank the ball off the backboard or their knee when trying (roster edits to change any unwelcome results) and same for spin moves.

Imagine seeing JaVale McGee trying a euro (because he definitely would as he's just kinda dumb) going left and popping a defender on his right with his elbow, falling left and losing the ball in the first row while stumbling into a camera man! Shaqtin a fool, as usual.

yeah its awful this year, they're always changing something without telling anyone. They need to go back to the double x.

Solution: Give all players with any level of the King of Euros badge the ability to execute the euro step by double-tapping X. Done.

They changed it so you guys would have to learn how to play real basketball.

Just a question - can you do it on command using absolute controls? That's part of the reason I asked for them to include it.
