So if we hold LT then the right stick turns into dribble moves....that's pretty sick!

Wow I'm always a little intimidated when the control list first comes out for this game, lol.

# 46 Goffs @ 09/20/11 12:54 AM

hmm playing defense and pressing LT + RT together also triggers the cutoff move...so how do I trigger fast shuffle if it also triggers the cutoff move?

I'm gonna guess....

Imagine you are just sitting there on offense, without ball, and are in the corner. If you just flick right, you'll move over a step, but if you hold right you will run/shuffle in that direction.

I'm just guessing, but I assume the cutoff move will be a quick flick and holding the stick in a direction, with both triggers, will have you shuffling. A cutoff move basically is one big shuffle.

I'm excited about the hands-up stick on defense. As opposed to having to jump at every shot, I can run at them with the hands up and it'll still be contested. As well as just keeping the hands up when they are looking to feel the post.

Basically, they're hops or quick iso moves to quickly create space (going either left or right) for the pull-up J. they're similar in nature to the escape dribble pull-ups but from a moving dribble.

how would you go about the full spin gather to pull up jumper?

Can we get a sticky for this like we had last year?

You could pull this off in 2k8. They got rid of it.

i feel lost with 2k12, i love to use the hot step in 2k11 with the Y button but the now i can't do nothing, where are the signatures hot steps? O_o

The buttons are all mapped out to the same position for 360, and ps3 if that makes any sense.

loving the new isomotion! Its really similar to Live 10's style(but a lot smarter and specific to the player) once you start figuring out the chains. Maybe I'll put up a video showing some moves off.

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

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

That would be great since I'm having trouble chaining moves together with the new isomotion!

I almost broke my tv when I saw that play.

# 57 Knickerbocker @ 09/22/11 08:27 AM

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.

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

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.
