There aren't any benefits, and your problem with the pass not going to the intended recepient is the same reason I stopped using it.

It is a very scary thought that more people don't use more of the features in this game. There are just too many things to do. Then just doing the samething over and over again.

yeh some ppl just dont know that it was added in

i did a euro with wall, and my friend was like " oh! how do u do that?!"

i had to keep the edge and not tell him

Its funny you say that... I use not tell them... But I tell them everything I learn about the game. But like Cavemen they don't listen. Great example, this year I told them how the play calling system was changed. And how you had to press L1 and then the players button to call plays quicker. This Cavemen still call plays by pressing right on the directional pad. The only excuse I heard from one of them that made sense . Was that he use the the D-pad only because they stilll have the quick plays menu there.

Ok Brand new 2K player. BRAND NEW. I'm a bit lost. Tons of quotes below. See if you guys can help. Games been fun so far for the hour or so I've played.

..........
Just run through the tutorials

Where can I find the tutorials? I found the post moves but are there any other tutorials for offense?

The hardest post-move for me to execute is the up and under...

Yeah I found this out too, I could complete all of them except this one. I did it once but wasn't sure how I did it.

After you start the pumpfake release L2 or LT, then move the stick again yo finish the move.

I thought that's what I was doing and it still didn't work, maybe it's a timing thing....?

Up and under the timing is really important. Must release LT and move Right stick right quickly after the pump fake animation starts.

And that answers that. Timing.

How do you turn intentional foul on? As in, I have the intentional foul setting on manual, but it's late game and I want to automatically foul whoever has the ball.

Put this question as number 1. I'd like to know this as well, it's crucial.

Okay guys I'm new to 2K, and having some beginner troubles:

1) I can seem to dunk the basketball, I got an open lane and the player always lays the ball up. Is there a seperate button for dunks.

Ditto. Can't dunk just lay ups. Do I need to come in at different angles or something? I can't slam the ball at all.

So wat are these flick-flick moves i hear of?

Ditto. What is a Flick....ehh, flick move??

You can't expect to see a silly ridiculous "fancy" pants in every situation just because you hold turbo and press the pass button.

LOL

Speaking of sig gathers, it seems like I pull them off accidentally whenever I try to hop step inside.

Am I doing something wrong?

What exactly is a "sig gather"?

I would love for someone to explain to me what the benefits are to right stick passing? I've used it but half the time the pass dsnt go where I want it to.

Or better yet, what exactly is right stick passing?? Are there different passing modes? Which one is on by default?


I'm really enjoying it so far. Can't wait to learn more about all the moves to make my buddies **** themselves when I do a Gasol reverse on that ***.

I'm just kinda lost and the manual, while helpful a little bit, isn't very in depth.

Thanks Fellas in advance.

There are many video tutorials available here at OS and at youtube. Everything else is based on your creativity.

Follow the tutorial links in my signature below and you should find everything you need to know to get you going as it's discussed in detail.

Good luck

Someone needs to make an in-depth tutorial on flick-flicks. They're easy to do but I feel like 90% of the time I do the same step through. I know they're based on ratings and the context of the situation but it seems a little bland. Everyone now and then I do a badass reverse pivot or Rondo-like ball fake and it looks amazing. I pay attention to how I do it (the Rondo one I got by RS fake away from the hoop and then RS towards the hoop) and try to replicate that with no luck.

Re: NBA 2K11 Isomotion/Shot Stick Help (360)

Little OT but couldnt figure where to put this question. When calling a pick and roll can i choose which side the pick will be? Always seems to go wrong side.

Whats the difference between absolute and relative shot stick? I play in broadcast camera if that makes a difference, which is better?

From what I gather, Absolute = Left is always left no matter which camera angle you use. Relative is relative to the camera angle at the time.
Example, lets say you're directly under the basket, and the camera is at half court facing your back. Left would be left in this case, meaning if you were to move in that direction it would take you to the far side of the court....now, if the camera was on the sidline looking at you then left would actually be behind you, meaning if you move left you would actually be heading backwards. That is relative.

If that makes any sense at all.

Yea kinda, so it seems easier to do absolute? Now in relative when I shoot at the top of the key with using broadcast camera, do I pull the left stick down like I do for all my shots, or do I pull it to the left or right, depending on where you are on the court.

it doesnt affect when your shooting, only when your trying to pull off dribble moves, layups, and dunks.

for example, no matter where u are on the court when trying to do a layup, left will always be a left hand layup. right will be right hand.

On the flick flick moves do you do it like flick flick and on the second flick hold the stick in the direction of the second flick or do you just flick flick and not hold down the second flick?Did that make sense?lol Thanks for your help

Re: NBA 2K11 Isomotion/Shot Stick Help (360)

Can someone comment or post vids on the "branching" of moves and animations? I can't get them down consistently (or what I think are the 'branching' moves at least).
