Just in time for the NBA 2K13 demo, which arrives tomorrow. Check out the controls trailer.

Gameplay Producer, Mike Wang (Beluba) has chimed in with the following update (Post #24).

Quote:


	just fyi... some of the controls are incorrect in this trailer: Bounce Pass = LT+A Behind the Back = RS away from hoop As for shots, the trailer just shows how to execute some of the new shots with the face buttons. Shot Stick controls are completely different. For example: Hop Step Layup = LT+Double Tap RS left or right Euro Step Layup = LT+Throw RS one way then back the other

I just got done watching the trailer and just got done reading this entire thread. As I was reading the thread I quoted some post to respond to, but as I kept on reading this thread got RIDICULOUS.

SMH at what this forum has become man. You never played the game but then you guys are a 100% the game will be easy to casuals.

Anyways the trailer was dope. My new Ethernet cord won't be in till later this week so I won't have the internet on xbox to download the demo. Damn I'm going to miss some valuable time adjusting to the new controls, but I'll have em down by the end of release week.

2K13 is looking hella dope tho.

You have the option of pressing buttons or using the shot stick.

not simple, but simpler... press b twice then jerk the right stick this way then hold x for this and that really?

Then use the control stick, it's far more natural that way.

Tap twice for hop step, back and forth for euro, makes sense.

# 145 JasonWilliams55 @ 09/24/12 10:33 PM

So why would anyone use the shot stick when they make it so easy to use the buttons;

LS away + (tap) B (for hop), + LT + RS (directional to shoot)
or
LS away + (tap) B (for hop), + X (to shoot)

Is that right or am I not 'seeing' it?

# 146 youvalss @ 09/24/12 10:36 PM

Playing with the the alternate controls (R stick + the modifier = dribbling), may make shooting a bit simpler. Hopefully.

# 147 youvalss @ 09/24/12 10:42 PM

I think MJ should be darker, it looks weird with that skin color.

I agree, makes more sense to me. I'm thankful 2k gave us the options!

That spin dunk sucked smh Griffin just push faried out of the way without any type of collision or resistance

Dang I have like 7 extra ethernet cord at home. Can't believe that's going to stop you from getting the demo tomorrow. I'd be so frustrated,

Just glad that damn isomotion is dead. Sheesh. BRING ON THE DEMO MANANA!

If behind the back is RS away from the hoop, then how do we do step backs?

Everything seems easy except the spin dunk i think they threw to many buttons in on that...

# 154 ron_bato @ 09/24/12 11:05 PM

Cannot wait for that demo so I know what kind of scheme I'll be using transitioning from dribble moves to shots. I'm a shot stick guy for all the advanced moves in previous 2ks, but since the dribble stick might mess up my rhythm, I might have to go with control stick + face buttons for shooting. Can't wait for the full game to practice! LOL

I just recently moved to Connecticut and haven't been on XBL for a good month or so. I decided to wait till 2k13 to get my XBL up and running, my TV is in the basement so I needed a 100 footer to reach from the router to my console.

Edit: I love how the euro step is done this year it's illl. I'm gonna have fun with Tyreke, Rondo and D-Wade.

*Sits back and watches the crybabies wine about a trailer created to showoff controls being cheese*

# 157 youvalss @ 09/24/12 11:12 PM

Was there a Euro-step attribute in 2K12? Is there going to be one in 2K13? Don't want to see this move too much, it's not THAT common in real life. Don't want everyone to do it like that.

# 158 DickDalewood @ 09/24/12 11:12 PM

Looks fantastic. And I love the shot buttons... I've always preferred button shooting over shot stick. Can't wait to try this out tomorrow.

No.

Turbo + Spin move + hold shoot while you're spinning.. Same as spin layup except without turbo.. Exactly how it should be

There was an ability if that counts. And a tendency.
