Try out NBA 2K21’s brand new gameplay controls using its demo in 2 weeks

NBA 2K21 will find a complimentary demonstration Aug. 24 for both Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, and with it, players can try out the overhauled”Guru Stick,” the right thumbstick commands that for the past decade have completed everything from shoot shots to juke, fake, and add razzle dazzle to somebody’s dribble moves. Mike ***, Visual Concepts’ manager for the NBA 2K series, dug into the Pro Stick modifications in a blog post Thursday morning that announced the availability of the demo. Taking a shot with the Guru Stick (a button control also initiates a shot) is now achieved by holding the right stick down, just. In past versions of the game, one could hold the rod in any way, and it would cue up a shot attempt. That holds true for starting dunks and layups.

Furthermore, *** states NBA 2K21’s Guru Stick will resurrect something that has been tried and did not really work: coordinating with the shot stick. “So instead of attempting to stop the shot meter when you get to the ideal discharge window, you fix the Guru Stick instantly to reach the perfect center aim point,” *** explained. “The target window resizes dynamically based on player skill, shooting selection, and how well the shooter is contested, and may also change to the left or right based on the shot’s degree of difficulty”

Misses right or left of this goal will travel in that way in the game. *** added that timing has an optional part in Shot Stick Aiming:”You won’t be penalized for using the whole shooting motion to get the sweet spot.” But gamers looking for a further layer of struggle, where a miss may turn to a create, can tap a cause button in the apex of their player’s shooting motion. As is customary when Visual Concepts introduces a new control strategy, it’s purely optional; players who are more comfortable with the older timing-window method can disable Shot Stick Aiming, *** explained.

The new controls are on display from the gameplay trailer which 2K Sports published. But what they produce is, and Visual Concepts likes to slide depictions of new animations — particularly blocks, signature moves, and interactions — into those hype reels. *** said in his post a ton of signature motion styles were added to NBA 2K21, to match the signature Buy MT 2K21 dribble styles introduced in NBA 2K20.
