    Other than the NBA players who are already old, players become unplayable at age 33 and beyond. Iguodala and Bogut were 67-68 overall in their age 33 seasons. Paul Pierce, Ginobili, and others hung on perhaps a season too long and retired around 64-65 overall.

    I've been seeing regression happen at age 28-29 and it's sharp as can be. By age 33 nobody is really even worth a roster spot. Really, really disappointing.

    Semi-related: does anyone know how to change a player's "player type" (e.g. from rebounding to offensive)?
    This does need to be adjusted.

    Also, draft classes are too uniform from top to bottom. So if you want to see second round guys that really are not going to make rosters, you need to pull the slider down. But if you leave it like that over several seasons, you won't have enough mid 80's players with B+ potential around the league to make it realistic. I tested this,and it's more about the potential of the players than just their progression toward their ceiling potential.

      Can anyone please post some season rebounding stats? In 2k14 I never saw anyone lead the league with more than 11 boards, even when a guy like Andre Drummond was playing 35 minutes per game.

        Are you saying player type is tied to a player's attributes rather than being an actual value itself? So, there's no way to adjust a player's training regimen (besides making him focus on one particular skill, which is poor for development) other than going and changing his entire attribute makeup? If so, that's pretty upsetting as I'd imagine it would create a positive feedback loop with regards to player development.

          I'm going completely off of player creation/editing so i can only answer the bold.

          yes, it's tied to attributes. before the created players started crashing the game, i was making this one guy who had a 70 st 3pt. if i upped it to 74, his role would go from 'versatile playmaker' to 'offensive superstar'.

          if a guy just has good rebounding ratings, he'll probably be a 'ravenous rebounder'. if his physical attributes get increased, he changes to an 'athletic glass cleaner'.

          hope that helped

            Oh. Well I knew about that, but what I'm wondering is if that's the same as the "player type" (athletic, offensive, rebounding, defensive, etc) that determines how players are trained. Assuming they're different things, he player type I'm referring to sounds like it would/should be editable, only there doesn't appear to be a way to edit it.

                Hey guys,

                are the player tendencies ever change??

                And if they change, can I influence this??
                (for example, let´s say I change the player training for my Center to focus on 3-pointers and he became a solid three point shooter over the years.
                Will his tendency to shoot 3´s increase too??)
                Don´t play video games, play Basketball

                  That's really disappointing. I don't suppose anyone knows if player types can change on their own throughout the course of a player's career? Outside of stunting their development by having them work on an individual attribute or two, that is.

                  If "defensive" or "rebounding" players will never improve their jump shot through the course of their career that's going to really stink.

                    So I did simulations with the play progress slider at 100,75,50,25,0. At 100 34 guys 29 or younger got worse. At 75 it as 33 guys. At 50 it was 43 guys. At 25 41 guys and at 0 54 guys. I also noticed that almost ever player between 30-32 went down 2-5 points. I think this needs to be patched. In the NBA they say guys are in there prime form 27-32 and yet in this game a good amount of guys that are 29 or younger get worse and I even saw sever guys that are like 23-25 getting worse. Also while not ever player can play at a high level at like 35 plus like a tim Duncan or kobe or dirk with the way it is right now once guys reach 30-32 they start to go down a good amount. It should be possible for guys who are like 33-35 to still play at a high level. With the way it is right now guys who are 30 or even like 28-29 are going to drop a lot by the time they are 33. This is not realistic and needs to be fixed improve has guys are regressing to soon right now.
                    It does need to be patched. Some people who work for 2K think all the sliders work as the should but they don't. I can say there's more sliders that are broken from within other areas of the game too. I mentioned the player progression slider as well. It's 100% broken.

                      if full CPU management doesn't get implemented for the next patch, can the CPU at least put a priority on resigning their guys? literally no one stays after their rookie deal because they get a contract from another team but not their own (???)

                        I wouldn't say that the player progression slider is broken has you see a bigger increase for players the higher you have the progression slider like you should its just that players regress at to young of an age. A lot of guys start getting worse at like 29 years old it should be more like 33 or so when guys start to drop.

                          Have you messed with the sliders for that in MYLEAGUE?

                              Just shelled out about $80m over 5 years on Rajon Rondo in my Celtics game... instantly goes down to an 85! Possibly just the start of a catastrophic drop off perhaps! Not good with my in-house GM rules- only do trades offered by the CPU, and no going over the luxury tax under any circumstances!


                              Oh well, you have to learn the hard way. It will be quite fun trying to build the roster if his contract is an albatross!

                                On topic though, I agree that too many decreases are currently seen. But it nearly works. I think its good that some guys start to decrease when in their 20s. Many players enter the league looking like they are going to have good careers, become solid contributors/starters, only to regress and in some cases drop out of the league completely before they are even 30. Usually injuries / poor conditioning / poor character /all of the above plays a big role in that happening. What we need is variation and unpredictability, linked to injuries etc, and that's something that I've never seen replicated very well in a video game.


                                However like I say above, at the moment the balance isn't quite right, too many drop offs from too many players that should be in their prime.
