Just because something doesn't make sense or feel right to you doesn't make it a bad thing. The control are fine and you have the option to change to the old control scheme if you want. Out of all the online games Iv'e played so far, no one has been able to abuse the controls by constantly flicking the stick.

At times the player control should be smooth, I feel like I'm pushing hard for movement. At times when it should be more heavy, it's too smooth. I never feel right with the sticks. It's just a personal thing. Ill be canceling my pre order. Sent from my mobile device.

you dont even need the sticks to get to the rim sometimes

does anyone know how to do the 4 stand still set-up iso moves?

i 4get the bottoms off the top of my head but i think from a standstill you would hold 1 of the triggers (whichever 1 didnt do the triple threat moves) and you could press up, down, left or right and the player would do a set-up move. where have those moves gone?

i dont see them in the advance controls thread either.

--------------

just wondering what did ppl expect the presentation to be like when they heard Jay-Z was gonna be ex.producer?

obviously noone really knew the answer to this question but now that we do know and then you take into account Jay's involvement, are ppl really surprised that much the presentation went in this sort of direction?

The laughing evil clown can only be heard in the demo. I didn't hear it in 2k12 retail so I'm confident that he will not make an appearance in retail version of 2k13.

You can except for those extra laggy games.

Are you sure you read anything?? LS does basic moves and RS does crossovers and everything else. If you want stand still moves tap, double tap or Triple tap RS in any direction.

For example if you double tap RS back the ball handler will do a double behind the back move.

It's been a cumulative thing with 2K. There was a version that did away with this feeling. Maybe 2K11? I feel like this version returned that feeling I had during my college days when I just couldn't enjoy this series.

Let me iterate that I didn't want to sound overly dramatic or anything. I'm just posting a personal feeling.

I purposely avoided saying the control is bad or doesn't work. It doesn't work for me.

Also, I'm not talking about dribbling moves. I'm talking about player control. It feels sluggish when it should be smooth and too smooth when it should be a bit more heavy.

It's just my general feeling when I play the demo. I want to move left and I find myself pushing my player hard just to get the appropriate movement. If I want the player to simply take a hard angle, instead I find that player taking a hesitation dribble before getting there. My hands don't do what my mind wants and I'm incapable of enjoying the game for that reason.

Then its vice versa on defense when I only want to take a slight step to the right but find myself taking a full speed step and suddenly the offensive player is by me, only giving me a chance to recover because of the body-to-body contact that is much more prevalent in this year's version.

I don't know what you mean by this.
