NBA Live 10 Blog: Passing Controls

[Mintsa]

Best vid yet.....the passing controls look sweet and easy to use (thats the key). If the feature is to sluggish or to complicated to pull off I wouldn't use it. These advanced passing systems give you more control of what you want to do (either passing or playing off ball to receive a pass) but look really easy to get the hang of.

It's going to be really tough to decide which game to put into the PS3 this season whenever I want a hoops fix. But thats a good thing!

I know you're kidding Pared, but I forgot to point that out as well. it did look a little crazy, but I'm glad to hear it's on a lower difficulty level.

I am having a very hard time choosing between the two. I guess I just want to see some 2k gameplay and i want to hear about the franchise or season mode in Live. But I am loving what Live is doing so far. I love that we have a choice still. Unlike in Madden.

And yeah, these off-ball controls are very intuitive... MUCH better than the controls we had in 2K8-9 where you have to scroll through the players then choose what they do, etc. Is there a give-and-go mechanic where you can pass to a man, cut to the rack, then call for the ball back? I always enjoyed that. The game looks GREAT. I assume it was on lower difficulty again to show stuff off more easily, but I was just taken aback by how smooth it looked after seeing these videos from people who don't really know the game. Seeing Mike play it makes it look so much better... loved the contact/fall animation by Salmons.

OUch that was raw but you're right big bro sometimes they are annoying

That was great, great great great good job EA

Really impressed by the passing controls this year. I wasn't sold on NBA Live's resurgence this year, but I think I'm getting there.

It's going to be so fun to control PGs this year.
