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

    To answer my own question and ask another at the same. Seems the best def. Is to forget about L2, LB all together and just get in the way. Then how do I stop drivers to the rim in their tracks like they do me? Still curious how to tip passes and dive for lose balls tho..

May want to try it at 25% tho cause atm my dude is stupid one on one and my def attributes are maxed . To me what is weird, with no assistance, then on offense my kid is a beast dunking over everyone, just seems all around faster.
      Found it. Thankya. Mine was set at 50. Turned it down to 25 to see how that works.
      Also, there is a "Automatic Shot Contest" switch. Manual - Intense D - Always. I had it on Intense. Turned it to manual. See how that works out.

      Thanks again for the reply.

        Back out of MyCareer, go to features and then select Shoes (or whatever it's called), select the brand you want and then select edit. Then you can save it and you can purchase them in the MyCareer store.

        -----------

        Anyway, played some online stuff for the first time in a while and the connections seem a lot better. They're still slightly annoying but it's playable. 5v5 on the park is just awful so I tried 3v3 for the first time and it's a lot of fun.

        Also, is there any way to flip the 2K camera in Park mode? When you're playing on a certain side and on offence you have to look at the backboard and I hate it. Wish it would automatically flip when it switches from offence to defence.

          It was a few games after I signed. Your agent (my agent is still the MyCareer player's buddy) tells you "you did it" and tells you that you get to design your own shoe.

          The game then cuts to a Nike-branded shoe creator (same as the main shoe designer but red, and with some chatter from the Tinker guy) and lets you make your own shoe. I didn't see any difference vs the regular shoe designer from the main menu, except you can only pick your endorsed brand (Jordan for me).

          So make your shoe, and it shows up in the store and you can grab it for free (since it's your brand).

            Is there a reason for the rookie showcase anymore? With my first one I know I did bad. But I just started another as a PG and dominated Ellis.

            23pts, 11 assists, 9 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 block.

            Ellis finished with 14pts, 6 assists, 1 rebound, 0 steals and 0 blocks.

            Yet he apparently "owned me" and the stories are all about how he dominated me in the showcase. Really? My team did lose, so is only tied to the team that wins?

            I was really hoping for a different cut scene.

            Yet I did get selected ahead of him in the draft.

              I still hang on to L2 when my guy has the ball, or I'm trying to deny a passing lane. R2L2 to shuffle quickly, but I've had a tendency to overadjust and let my man drive past me. So most of the time I just hold L2 and give some cushion vs my guy, but not far enough that he can take an uncontested jumper. Good slashers will still get by half the time. I'm maxed on def awareness and quickness, with the defensive anchor personality badge, plus the shutdown defender and pick pocket 3 signatures. I've tried the mind games and enforcer badges and they seemed to help, but no space for them now.

              To tip a pass, body up on your man (L2) then hit [] when the pass is incoming. Your player should lunge and try to tip the pass if you time it right. To dive for a loose ball I think it's just [] when running after the ball but I can't seem to do it consistently (might just be me).

                You have to have a high team grade and win sometimes i just do good stats and grade wise don't win it but i get the normal scene with ellis complaining about a track record.

                  Man I can't stand the three pointers in this mode. The CPU just makes it rain every ******* game. Just played the Magic and they shot 10/12 on 3s, had 69 points shooting 50% overall with only 8 points in the paint. Jameer Nelson also plays like he's Steph Curry or something.

                    I hate this Take Over the Game goal I keep getting, It asks you to score 10 straight and you lose it if your teammates score but you don't fail it even if the opposition go on a 10-0 run. Every time I try to complete I end up losing us the game since I have to hog the ball and jack up shots. Very frustrating.

                        I just played the Cavs w/out Irving. Maannn these dudes didn't miss anything all game. Jared Jack with the automatic floater 5 times straight. And my team actually played great! they just rained every three they took except 2 that I personally defended. Game needs a Slider adjustment badly.

                          I'm in my second year. Won the Chip in my Rookie season with the Bucks. I played on Pro the first season and once my team's chemistry rose to 90+, we was rolling on teams. I turned it up to Allstar, and we play better but we don't roll them. And the PC doesn't miss much.

                          Yall was talking about guarding as a PG. I'm a PG and most night I can handle the opposing PG. I hate that the floater is like automatic for the CPU.

                          Other then that the game is good not great! I thought they did MyCareer OK. Could be much more added. The whole "you can only wear name brand kicks when you get an endorsement." thing was stupid. I mean Jackson Ellis was wearing Jordans fresh out!. I had to wait thru like 80 games. By that time I had started making my own impressive No name sneakers. So it was no big deal anymore. (What would actually be impressive is if i started seeing Players wear My signature shoe around the league, I really made some great ones)

                          Any of yall know how to curb the crazy Turnovers? Mind you I have hand some great and memorable games.

                          And the grading system is messed up. A ball thats tipped isn't counted as an an assist? Points taken for Labron james scoring on me??? are u serious!??? LOL Points taken for offensive rebounds? Example: I just swatted Irving's shot. He get it back I lose points for him getting the rebound... LOL Like How would I have got it? with my feet? Just funny stuff.
