Their reasoning for mapping it to the R2/RT button is likely because the right stick sees so much use between dribbling and shooting that it would be even more awkward to try and hit X/A to pass. Think about taking a shot where the shot stick needs to stay perfectly at the top of the circle but then trying to 'slide' your finger over to X/A because you want to pass out of your shot.
The problem is (I think, but could be wrong) that a command to pass is actually activated once the trigger is 'released' not pressed. This is compounded by the greater amount of time it takes to fully compress a trigger button, versus compressing a regular button. Hopefully that's all it is and they can change it to be when you first begin to pull the R2/RT trigger.
Still aint buyin the game but figured someone should say they didn't think EA was completely insane when they moved passing off of X/A.
That's the exact reason we did it.
Having pass on release is so you can have more say on who the pass goes to (near or far player when they are both at the same angle from you).
The freestyle pass gives you a quicker pass doesn't it?
