Re: NBA 2K14 Advanced Controls (PS3, X360)

Thanks Beluba!

Looks like we have new control mechanics for both the fake pass and give and go.

Not sure what to think about the fake pass change, but I'm intrigued about the give and go. Sounds pretty intuitive.

EDIT: Didn't see that we can now fake pass off the dribble! Yes! That mechanic makes more sense now.

When doing a moving fake pass, you have to pass or shoot before the animation ends or you'll lose the ball.

this is good news. Do we have any video footage of this move being executed? As far as fake passing on the drive in momentum and not a canned animation?

With the drive and kick game looking good this year, that fake pass will make for some nice highlights
