NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

Re: NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

Wouldn't it be great if the flops were player specific?

i.e. this little gem from a certain Miami 'third wheel'

I almost broke my tv when I saw that play.

Hrmmm I cant find the controls for the flick flick off the dribble. Or the flick flick after a dropstep. Removed?

Oh and also I cannot pivot when in the post. When I do the fake, I always lose the pivot foot.

@Beluba, Will Training Camp mode show us how to do everything in those controls screenshots ? Like the iso controls and post moves.

I would like to know as well as I would love to learn the post moves.

With the NBA 2K12 demo arriving tomorrow, 2K Sports sent us these OS exclusive screenshots, showing the controls. This will definitely be helpful when playing the demo tomorrow.

controls look better

Have there been any updates in regards to the controls trailer? I thought I read it was being approved for release earlier this week. It would certainly go well with the demo release.

How do I flop consistently lol? I think it's circle and right stick away from the ball, but it only works once in a while. I was trying to flop the entire time and I got dirk to fall over with no one near him. I laughed so hard.

How can I recreate this play?

Tried to execute a Drop Step from a live dribble (LT + RS to baseline) but it keeps chaining a start of step through animation then ends with a face up when you don't totally pull the RS.

It's easy. I don't have video capturing access but just pulled it off. It's not as fluid as in the video, but here you go.

(Try this from the same angle as the video)

1. Backdown 'til you get to about the block area
2. Pump fake left
3. Wait til the animation is done, fake a couple more times
4. Reengage the post (Y/Triangle)
5. Shimmy shake right to left fadeaway
6. PROFIT!

Yeah I guess the 1st pump fake doesnt need to be a dropstep like what Ive been initially doing.. Thanks brah

Re: NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

Anytime. And a couple more pointers:

- Do it with Caron as he's best able to emulate Kobe in terms of style
- The first pump fake will be different every time so the end of the animation will sometimes have him try to step through to the other side. Just make sure you wait until it's COMPLETELY done or he'll ust do the up-and-under.

LeBron actually bites on some of the other fakes too so sometimes you won't even need the whole thing!

Re: NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

Yup, been doing it with Caron. And yeah, seems like the pump fake's continuation depends on the defender whether he bites or not. I even drew a foul sometime but that's the case when I don't fully finish the pump fake animation.

I've also been trying to recreate this play..

Haven't fully recreated the play but I guess the distance from the basket and defender's position really matter to pull the step through jump shot did by Kobe.

I'm loving the fact that we can also do pivot moves out of escape dribbles (side hop step and hop step back).

Re: NBA 2K12 Screenshots - Controls (OS Exclusive)

Hell yeah. The best feeling is linking two escape dribbles together, gettnig the D to bite, then blowing past him. On some AND-1 type ish.

You could actually recreate this in 2k11. I'm sure you can do it here.

Was it possible in 2k11 to walk around while being in the taking a charge position. Looks really funny, strolling around protecting their manhood.
