NBA 2K14 - Rob Jones Briefly Explains The Pro Stick: Dribbling and Shooting

[SpacialJones]

to be honest, im tired of adjusting to new controls.... each... and every.....year....this game comes out. ive been adjusting since 2k3. it sounds cool no doubt but i was really feeling 2k13 control scheme. i dont know if im excited about this feature though because i use direct passing. i never pass with the x button (Ps3 user,not as accurate imo) but if the game becomes more fluid for users then im all for it.

So, can we pump-fake with the stick?

[jersez]

We shouldn't be assuming anything right now till we actually play the game. These guys have spent months playing the game they wouldn't have changed it, unless they felt like it was a step up over last year's control scheme like KyotoCarl said.

I just think it's funny because last year when they changed the shot stick, to left trigger to shoot guys were complaining about that. But I don't see anyone complaining about that anymore.

So just calm down. Play the game first before you pass judgment on the control scheme.

I understand that this will most likely be an improvement, but it is getting really annoying having to re-learn the controls every year.

[jersez]

Don't we have to learn new moves every year? lol I just don't see why guys are mad or annoyed by this.

I actually hope this is the case (start shot, stop at right time to pump fake) because that would mean shots should feel better having more control and more natural feel. Hopefully we will be getting a trailer and gameplay this week

wow. a decent amount of new controls this year. i have a feeling it's going to take some time to master these new controls. it will probably be worth it in the end though.

Updated the OP w/ IpodKingCarter's detailed impressions. It should answer some of the questions you guys have.
