What are your feelings towards the Control Stick?

Putting power in my hands to do what i want. Bravo 2k.. Hell, we can even go back to last years controls. Almost like ea and their connected careers feature with its tons of options/s...

I like it def going to take some time to get use to, but I'm using moves this year I never used last year so I def like it. Only thing I hate is the fake pass. When I want to pass sometimes it does a fake pass, but otherwise I like it and it feels good

This is the thing that worried me most an im seein this at times aswell.I wish the LT was the dribble modifier by default.I know you can switch it once the full game comes out but i got a feeling we better start getting use to doin it this way as this seems to be the way moving forward.

Hopefully after a few weeks with the game itll get better but with the demo im not liken it that much although the sysetm does seem deeper.

Pretty apathetic. I don't "feel" like I have "more control" but I've adapted pretty easily to it. One positive thing about it is that I don't feel a hitch between the dribble moves so it does seem smoother. I'm liking the fact that being an idiot on the sticks will likely cause you to lose the ball. It's kind of combining the 2K10 "lose dribble" animation with the 2K12 "live physics".

The Control Stick feels smooth and responsive, I like the fact that you can still use the left stick to pull off cross overs. I also like how you can control your dribble with left stick. If your play is stationary you can rock the left stick back and forth and your player would dribble left to right as fast you want. It like the sizeup dribble from 2k12 but you control the combo it's no longer an animation.

I like it. Given that the 2k series has somewhat of a steep learning curve, I've mastered it over the years and so I want something challenging and mapping all the dribble moves to the RS was a great idea and I think after a month or so people will come around and love it.

For the people that don't like it, is it mainly shooting that you don't like about the control stick? In previous 2k's did you use the shot button or the shot stick?

I'm trying to see if it makes a difference. Me I always used the X or Square for jumpshots, I only use the shot stick when I'm in the post or for finishes, so the new controls are fine with me now. I think that might be the reason why some are more comfortable with the new controls than others, because of their jumpshot preference.

That is a big diff.. I m 100% shot stick so this is a big transition mentally. Not for the double tap pull ups, those were done with the modifier any way so I am accustomed to modifying the right stick... But not for spot shooting or dunking. As far as the dribble stick there are some moves I am comfortable with and others I am clueless like the movie. But that's ok bc that sounds like real basketball to me. Chris Paul didn't wake up w handles he had to put work in and now so do we. Yay
