Of course he probably signed a NDA, but I enjoyed hearing him speak on the level of skill it is going to take to use the shot stick. Interested in being able to see how the layups work now that they have release points, something LONG overdue IMO.

Also he mentioned that shooting jumpers with the stick gives you a boost.

Will be spending a lot of time in practice mode again

Negatives: Didn't like hearing him say people were falling after getting crossed so much, but I am sure that is something they will alter

Apparently green releases are automatic makes again. Complete nonsense 2K. Get that arcade crap out of the game man.

That just damn near killed my hype for this game.

I hope Beluba left in absolute controls for the shot stick. If you have to aim on certain angles that will make it way harder to shoot

It was the same at the start of 2k16. Park players would walk up, do a Jamal Crawford and think they were experts as more often than not, someone would end up on their arse.

I don't like the sound of ANY of that analog shooting crap. Just sounds complicated.

I'm sure it's in but aiming on broadcast will be a challenge....

Button play it is (for us broadcast guys)..... I'm sure Czar and a lot of the other sim guys ball with broadcast (or at least used to). I wonder their take on this new aiming mechanic.....

[The 24th Letter]

So if I am on broadcast shooting an elbow jumper, I have to aim diagonally toward the basket? That would take some major getting used to...
