    Re: NBA 2K14 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

    "my" 6-11 76ers play 8-8 Pistons next.. first matchup with Ellis and he's not happy about the Pistons from the NBA.COM screen.. betting I lose by 40 in this one.

    Amazingly I'm in the game at just the 10:26 mark instead of sitting for the first 8 minutes like usual. I'm supposed to outscore Ellis.. in actuality that should be easy.. he's 5 PPG and 12 minutes per game.. we'll see

    So much for my streak of scoring 20+.. I have 4 points in the first half.. up 55-44.. they will NOT pass me the ball like normally do when posted up.. Ellis has 10 points already.. pretty sure this is set up so I lose the challenge to Ellis. He rebounds EVERYTHING when I'm out there too.. I box him out and next thing I know I'm at the free throw line and he's got the ball! IT is a complete fricken joke really.. no way to outscore him in this first matchup.

    I don't know who wrote the script but it's obvious you're going to lose the matchup from the start.. might win the actual game. I'm supposed to hit 3 of my first 4 shots.. yet they don't pass the ball.. only time I touch it is at the 3 point line if I leave the lane, they pass and I run to the line to catch it. Being outscored 20-6 by Ellis because I've had 2 shots taken and 4-6 free throws made

    Ellis character itself is a completely stupid storyline 7'1 center doing 360 dribble and drive layups starting from the 3-point line? Umm.. NO.. he has 24 points now in 16 minutes.. 11-14 shooting with 3 and-1's. 14 shots in 16 minutes is a joke, nobody on his team has taken more than 6! I got my 4th shot attempt of the GAME in the 4th quarter.. forget saying we could win the game.. a 15 point lead is down to 3.. Ellis will score 40+ with this b.s. scenario screwing me on purpose. Obvious since now I got the 'score 10 straight' order and immediately they're passing to me and my center's gone COLD immediately.. 2K writers are worse than the WWE. After screwing my shooting % my going cold now I'm suppose to get it back to 50% .. b.s.

    Managed to start making layups AFTER having to get back to 50%.. and got Ellis fouled out but the guy shot 18 of 24 with 42 points and 12 boards.. can't compete with that script if they don't pass to me until it's way out of reach. Gonna lose the game though now also.. all of a sudden I can't make free throws again.. AND the I just blew a layup, the game put me in fadeaway shot on a straight up easy one off the back rim. Definitely a loss before the game started, no way a guy averaging 12 minutes and 5 ppg scores 42 in a game playing nearly 30 minutes and taking 24 shots!

      It won't let me play either. Tried getting answers from 2k. None.

        One last thing on the garbage Ellis scenario.. his 28 minutes 42 points and 12 boards.. the most he's scored in the 2K game is 12 and hadn't put up more than 9 shots in a game before shooting 18 of 24 in the game vs my team.. 24 shots is more than his 5 previous games combined.. with his D+ ball handling, he's able to do 360's and drives from the 3-point line? Only in the scripted game.. he ball-handles like a PG! In November games he averaged 4.9 points and 3 rebounds and shot 40%.. there really is no way to beat him head to head in this script unless you're a ball handling PG who ball hogs is there? I've seen final bosses in 'first person shooters' that made more sense

            We don't question Bob. We just accept that he has about 80 birthdays

              press conference question starts out "you were able to get some extra minutes while your team was being blown out" Umm.. no I played 6 minutes LESS than normal so 2k could run a scenario where I'm supposed to pull the crappy 76ers team from 14 down in the 4th quarter.. where's THAT answer at press conference? I scored 28 and shot 66% and am told I didn't show the coach anything.. so stupid.. coach is 'a little disappointed'.. umm whatever .. lead the team in scoring 10 straight games, rookie of the month..and you still get dumped on

              Agent convo telling me 'you might not want to play for this team forever'.. I'm not sure I'd want to play for them another game the way this is going. Nice 5 game losing streak where only one game wasn't 10 or more point loss, and 3 of them are 20, nearly 30 point losses

                Asked the GM for more minutes after a 38 point 11 board game.. since I'm sick of being the sixth man .. broke the 5 game losing streak and the social media is begging for me to be in the starting lineup

                20th in the league in scoring (20.2 ppg now.) 3rd in free throws attempted in the league while the team is still last overall in attempts. Unlike the 360 game, the NBA isn't playing the 'Hack Howard' game, as I've shot 50 more than him. Got a popup screen somewhere along the way that said my PER (player efficiency rating) was over 30.. and showed Wilt Chamberlain as a 31.4 or something career PER.. I miss being able to see Metrics in 'Next Gen' unless I've just missed where they are available

                    The mode glitched on me, hooray! I'm in a select group.

                    I made a 6'4" Athletic PG and got drafted by the Kings. Moved up to the 6th man in a fairly short time and was having a blast.

                    However, now whenever I get subbed in, I'm in for the entire game and so are my teammates who are in with me. Sometimes I get subbed in at a SG and have to play the entire game there unless I force whoever the PG is to foul out.

                    Game mode is ruined for me so far. I'd start over, but I really, really don't want to have to see all the cut scenes again and there's no guarantee that it'll fix the issue.

                      This happened to me I kept playing and they eventually went back to subbing but then all my ratings dropped to 25 and I stopped playing that 1

                          Difficulty?
                          Quarter Length?
                          Casual, Simulation, or Default?


                          Thanks!!
