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

are you absolutely sure about that? Were you at level 19 perhaps?

Hey no offense but you don't need to max out defense to get that badge cause mines isn't max out and I have eraser and chase down artist as a PG 2 badges that Im proud to get cause I love defense. Plus mines is like at level 16 so yeah you don't have to be maxed out. Just get over 2 blocks or more like every game and you'll get eraser and chase down artist get about 2 blocks off of a fast break or while the driving to dunk or lay up and time it when your behind them and you'll get the with no problem. Any more questions on that Ill help you. Your on ps4 or xb1?

Alot of people are misunderstanding me for this, if someone has max defense the number of blocks needed are gonna be higher than someone who was level 16 defense because some badges are tied to a certain attribute level and I thought eraser was one of them. I got eraser as a pg too, and I too was level 16. Im on xbox one and I cant wait for that patch, definitely getting dimer, definitely chasedown and hopefully scrapper.

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

Hey guys, i have 6'8'' SF with the Bulls and a 6'6'' PG with the Nuggets. Since my PG is 6'6'' i fear that a team will stick me at the 2 instead of the 1. I want to run the offense. I'm already halfway through my first season and a 71 overall. Should i start over and make around a 6'4'' PG so teams won't stick me at the 2 or would they sometimes stick me at the 2 regardless? I guess i can always sign with a team after my 1st year that needs a PG and has a SG like the Rockets.

Look to avoid that happening simply sign to a team that has a star already at shooting for example: Houston, Laker, Raptors, Heat etc or sign to a team that strictly needs a PG example: Knicks, Lakers, Dallas, Heat, Houston, Kings, those teams as a 6'6 PG you'll be fine and won't have to run the 2 especially if you have a star at SG already.

Clearly cause I knew exactly what you were talking about so that's why I tried to help. I'm tryna get floor general but I know what's needed to get that I'm tryna get on floor coach and dimer but I don't know what's needed now to get that since they changed what you have to do to get it now

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

Anyone know where the all star game is being played at since they said I. The patch notes that the 2014 all star arena won't be used. Will it be the arena that is hosting the all star game this year New York? (MSG & Barkleys)

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

So I took a long break from MyCareer after launch and played a ton of MyLeague, but I can say this most recent patch really helps it a TON. The mode is actually a lot of fun again. The only thing that I don't like is how difficult free throws are now, but that can be fixed on my end so oh well. Also the new hairstyles are pretty dope.

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

thinking about getting it tomorrow. how does mc play now, does it still feel like the cpu gets the advantage, like always hitting pull ups, or almost all wide open shots dropping,while your teammates struggle to hit the open jumpers. does the cpu defender still seem like a brick wall defensively, while your teammates can barely keep guys in front of them? Is rebounding still off, like cpu oppononent getting most of the o rebounds cuz your team doesnt box out? i havent played 15 yet and i wanna know what issues plague mc so i know what to fix with sliders.

Does anybody know what's going on with the accessories in my career or the shoes?

[ecovyoudug]

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

Yeah. The Myplayer store shoe section for Home and Away is screwed up. The only shoes that load up are the two that I created, one being my signature shoe. Not even the 2K generic shoes show up. The only ones I can currently wear is the sig shoes. Equipping the other created shoe doesn't work.

Anyone having trouble selecting what shoe you would like to wear? The server can't load anything in the shoe category

I cant even equip my sig shoes that i just created after signing with nike.

Does anybody know what's going on with the accessories in my career or the shoes?

I'm having the same problem as all of you and its been a couple of days now. I wonder if they're working on this or if they're even aware the issue! I hope so and it's fixed soon, I want to wear my created generics again, as well I wear the correct gear I'm assigning.

New to Next Gen – questions for experienced players

Hi played NBA2K13 & 14 extensively on PS3 moved to XBOX One and 2k15 3 weeks ago.. Some general question re myplayer

• Biggest question, What’s the secret to making layups? My center has almost maxed out inside game and athleticism and I miss easily twice the amount of layups I make. Minimally contested layups are almost an automatic miss.

I don’t see a shot meter and it seemingly makes no difference on layups if I release early or hold on as long as possible. What’s the secret to consistently making layups?

• Just got into the playoffs for first season, no playoff tree in myplayer? Anyway to see what’s happening other than searching through the “social media” tweet section?
  
• Game commentators consistently reference stats, league leaders etc. On NBA2k14 on my PS3 i get a little window popped in showing the list. On Xbox One now I get nothing while they talk about it. Normal?
  
• Can anyone get Kinect Voice commands to work consistently? I been dropping fbombs and nothing happens and then get a technical while having a conversation with my GF. None of the commands seem to work properly (pass, post up, set screen etc.)

at the beginning of the creation i chose my desired team as the Rockets. Ill just do my best to play great and get them to sign me. I may keep playing my SF earn VC and use it on my PG. I earn about 1k VC every game with him.

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

EDIT: sorry for a long post


The Patch.....a totally better game...sort of...

So, The patch downloaded. I was nervous because of what some people said about not being able to sprint and such. My first game with the new mechanics was @ Clippers. I groaned because they hit every shot like OKC. After the first quarter I had to stop for a bit I was so stunned. I can't remember a game (HoF) where the opponent did not shoot 60+% in the opening quarter (or did not shoot 50%+ for the game for that matter). No was controlling the paint so they shot from outside...and badly. We were up 20 at half. That has NEVER happened against a good offensive team on their court. They ended up shooting 44% but their scrubs hit like 7-10 to end the game. I was stunned. Has the game changes made it a little more balanced? I don't have to play hero ball EVERY game?

Next game was against a lower tier team at home and we held them to 47%!!!!!! Omg... We shot 52% but given I am with Love, James and Irving I expect that. That game is fixed! Even rebounds were not as easy to come by as before which is good. I really had to work at it. If I did not block out properly they could get an OR. I love that! No more cheese stuff! We made all of our wide open dunks and layup, most of the slightly contested. I got called for more fouls because I was trying to block everything...I even love that! No preventing me from jumping. No forced misses...no cheese! I love 2k!!!!!!!!

And then....I played @ the Suns. ��

My team, without me, shot a collective 19% with them missing every open layup and two monster dunk attempts. The Suns shot 59% for the game and that is with them clanking shots at the end. They made every free throw. The computer did not let me jump more that 1 inch off the floor on 6 shots so that the ball would JUST make it over my outreached hand so they could drain the shot. Two passes went through my chest. Two block attempts went through my hand. They got 12 basket and fouls. We ended up on the ground on three layup attempts with no fouls. Every cheesey thing That almost made me quit before came back in full force. It was very disheartening. I can deal with having a bad night shooting....just not when its forced on me regardless of the quality of the shot.

That said...I am interested to see if in your career game if the Suns got a player Named Harvey? I jacked up my athlethicism so I am faster than almost any center. Well, I got a rude awakening. This Harvey, 7'2" rookie, was completely unstoppable offensively. He had post moves of The Dream in his prime. His jump shot had to have the quickest release I have ever seen. If you tried to block it he would pump it instead and just drive by (of which he was way quicker than me). It was humbling. All I could think was "if I have to play this guy in the playoffs." Oh...and they kept dumping it into him over and over again. He had 18 shots at half....and I had 4 fouls. I could not even jump to block...which ended up a better way to "contain" him. That part of the game...was awesome. Will have to game plan for him next time.
