Re: NBA 2k14's Dribbling questions

Explosives launches are still timed windows this years it seems, and the sizeups are much quicker and I think that's one of the reasons people aren't getting explosive launch crossovers. But even when I'm within the window to explode the ball handler does this jog and doesn't explode. Not talking about the new cross the ball to hand explosives launch.

Re: NBA 2k14's Dribbling questions

BELUBA, What configuration is the pro stick, SHOTS/ISOMOTION, or ISOMOTION/SHOTS, im not worried about dribbling at this moment, this is going to sound stupid, but i can not throw flashy passes, i was a directional passer, and was very good at it, that abilty is throwing me off in 2k14

Not sure I understand the questions... but SHOTS/ISOMOTION and ISOMOTION/SHOTS are 2k13 settings. The first is your primary Control Stick action, the 2nd is the one you get when you hold L2 (LT).

The Pro Stick puts both Isomotion and Shots on the RS with no modifiers. Tap for Moves, Hold for shots. This is the default config in the shipped game. When you hold L2 (LT) the Right Stick is used for flashy passing.

Dribbling In The Post:

I'm struggling pulling off simple things in the post this year like leaning to create space. Is it still in there? I've been trying for awhile now and can't get it to engage.

Thanks for your time.
I figured out the leaning and fakes.

Re: NBA 2k14's Dribbling questions

Beluba, what gives with the double shimmy post fades and shots. The manual says RT and LS left, right, and away from the hoop, but the inputs dont work for the shimmy or double shimmy post fades or shots into brancheable up and unders like old 2ks. Can we please get some clarification on that. Thanks for your work on a fantastic game

Shimmy shots are RT+RS away left or right. You have to hold the shot stick not Left stick.

Protect dribble? What's this? I don't see this in the Advanced Controls thread anywhere.
