Wow lucky me i never take more than 24 shots in my career and never get the volume shooter badge.

I'm finishing my second season with the Rockets and looks like Howard is not gonna stay so i'm talking now in the social media (ask for big 3) with Joakim Noah the only All-Star Center available for FA who knows if this works but i don't think so.

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

hi guys, had my account for a while but this is my first time posting, not sure if this was posted before but i got curious and decided to give it a shot. For those that just want to get to a certain number of games but dont want to grind, or dont want to play every game and wants to sim some here and there.

If you actually go into the game to start playing, then sim to end and then quit back out, anything from thaqt game will count towards all ur milestone numbers, such as total career assists, points etc but also more importantly, total games played.

So figured if ur going to sim some games here and there anyways, while playing others, may as well do it that way, it wont be as quick as simming thru the calander, but it will still increase ur games played getting u closer to certain magic numbers for games played, along with your stats and such which will also get u closer to milestones and more VC when u reach those milestones

Well I finally got the cutscene with my agent and told Pharrell to help me. So first of all it seems it's connected to your second season but anything else? No idea! I got it after a 55 point game... did any of you have a particulary high scoring game after your 48 games when you got it? Well let's see if I can get those 1 mio with Pharrell, that should also claim me the 4 Mio followers reward as I was on 3,5 mio before Gatorade and now will be at 4,5 Mio after. And yes Sprint B defo seems to come along AFTER you actually started the Playoffs because not only have my Thunder clinched the playoffs, we already locked the the first seat in the West with a 62-1 record. And maybe it's the 60th game but if so, it has to be on the Season, meaning your first season doesn't count, otherwise it doesn't make any sense for my game atm. I personally guess it is connected to you getting Gatorade/Sprite first, which might be connected to you having a particular high scoring game which would explain why some people get Gatorade very early and thus the shoe deal very early as well. If you start after your 10th game or so you might manage nearly 40 games started in your first season, grab another 8-10 next season and maybe score high in one of them or several so that fires up Gatorade. If you have gotten Gatorade your shoe deal will follow after 60 games non simulated which would put it around the All Star Break.

so that line up for cleveland for your game then is...
1 Irving
2 ....
3 James
4 Love
5 Howard

That about right?
If so i bet every SG player in these forums right now are salivating and drooling at the mere thought of being the lottery winner to fill that hole at the 2 guard

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

I've read that that team up for a big 3 thing doesn't mean anything until your 3rd season when you get to pick who you want to team up with.

Is it after the finals going into the offseason before the start of the 3rd season that you get to pick who plays with you? And how does all that work like the cutscenes etc ? Thanks

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

It is tied to the number of games played, but it also seems that the endorsements are connected and go in some order. And don't forget, some guys also have some kind of bugs like yourself by the looks of it.

I completely understand your frustration, but unfortunately I can't do anything, neither can you, it's just the way the games is programmed, not the best way to make it but what can we do? I'm from Slovenia and also sound like some ghetto dude, so believe me I also hate this part, but I just go along with it, no point in getting angry when there is NOTHING we can do but hope that next year they improve and expand it to cover more possible stories. I also hate the coach satisfaction thing, its terrible, just now I got run PnR, I had possession 3 times, 2 of those I scored after coming of a pick, and one was a fastbreak layup, I get bumped from B+ to B-, just ridiculous. But what the hell can I do? I actually don't even follow the coach guideline anymore, it just destroys my offensive flow, screw him I don't care about the grade, I'm at 70% and I don't care where I end up.

Hope you get your shoe deal and the rest of the endorsements soon.

It's still ridiculous. Look at is this way: If the algorithm is that you must play "x" number of games, most people are still looking at at least 50 hours of actual gameplay. That's INSANE. I can't think of another video game- whether it's an RPG, sports game, shooter- that you have to play 50 HOURS of gameplay before getting something. That's a lot. This is ruining the experience for me, and completely turning me off to the game completely. My mode must be glitches because I've gotten 10+ assists countless times, yet I still don't have that state farm assist endorsement. No matter what I do, I can't get Gatorade or Sprite. Ya know what? I don't give two ***** about those endorsements. The only reason I want them is so I can get the shoe deal. I just started my career over, this time with no simming. Ad it sucks. I have to play ANOTHER 60 games just to wear ******* real shoes? I'm waving the white flag. 2k has defeated me.

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

AAArggg 5 more turnovers. 10 assists but damn.

[Magnus1959]

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

I keep thinking every year they will get more realistic when it comes to shoes. I play every game, 12 min quarters. What the hell 2K? NBA players can wear any shoe till they are under contract, why not make it that way. By the time I get shoes I will already be sick of the game.

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

"Inside scorer"--Anyone else not a fan of how they lumped the skills together here? We could spend forever debating whether they should have when with the category system at all, but this category seems especially bad.

If I am a 6'0 point guard and want to be very good at layups (90+), it requires my post skills to be in the high 80s. Many bigs aren't even that skilled in the post, and guards are required to be that good in order to hit layups? It's silly I have to spend so many points to upgrade this category when all I really care about is 1 skill out of the group. As silly as it sounds, this is starting to be close to a game breaker for me. I'm tired of not being able to hit a damn layup.

Exactly. Why doesn't 2k understand that by the time we get the endorsement, a lot of the gamers are bored with the mode. And in reference to the first sentence- that would make too much sense.

Agreed. I have now played 100 games on 12 min quarters... so say I play 40 minutes per game and add loading etc. with 5 mins per game that means I have played 4500 minutes, add some time trying to pick animations, looking up stuff to understand how it works etc. I now have 126!!! hours on record for NBA 2k15 and still have to get my Shoe deal! That's more time than I spent on Mass Effect 2 and I have all DLC for that game and played through it twice whereas I only played one ****ing mode of 2k15... that is just ridiculous especially if you consider that after playing every game, I'm still ages away from actually topping out my player... what on earth are they thinking???

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

I can't find anything about a way to remove a badge, would be nice though. Hopefully when you upgrade it to gold it wont bother you too much.

I have volume shooter as a 6'0 pg, shoot 10-15 times a game and I don't go cold. The 30 shot thing is crap. I had multiple 30 shot games and didn't unlock it. Didn't get it til 4th season playoffs when i shot 38 Times. 5th season now, 8-2 sixers squad, avg 13 assist an still no state farm or shoes. 97 actual games played. Still unlocking badges though.

Re: NBA 2K15 (Next Gen.) Official MyCAREER Thread

So I tried to open my Mycareer this morning and guess what? It's gone.


I'm literally about to snap this game in half. The only thing keeping me from completely flipping out was that I have another mycareer I was going to start using so now I'm just going to start focusing on that one.

Still, how does a game save just disappear from the server like that? I'm seriously pissed off.
