NBA 2K13 - Some Clarity on the Control Stick

[JerseySuave4]

So we can switch the default so the LT does the dribbling stuff? I'm really excited about this because of the things you can now do with the ball. I'm pumped for this game more than i've been of any other in a while.

Yeah, it's basically a duplicate of Fifa's Skill system. You do the dribbles after you depress LT. That's how I'm used to playing Fifa, will definitely go with that setup....

Of course! Seems like 2K has taken little bits from the best of every sports game. The special traits/skills remind me of PES too

Double Tap B for spins, B + LS away for stepback.

I totally agree! It's funny I actually used the word "ape" about the controls in my thoughts and then saw the Gamersutra article. They said they didn't "ape" the Fifa controls, but made a similar one. Bull! They even have a setting to make it the Fifa controls. I'm actually loving how they are saying "this is great, let's adapt it to our game." Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.....

P.S. Got the term "ape" from David Rutter, talking about why his controls ended up looking soooo much like PES'. LOL!!!

Can you actually take charges in this game? It was so hard to take charges I felt in 12.

Thx

they have real time physics engine now which helps with foot planting which makes position on the court realistic and no ice like skating...so charging and blocking calls are gonna be amazing...not to mention mid air collisions
