About to play my last game on my second 10-year deal as a PG for the Magic.

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

After finishing my second 10-day contract, my PF signed for the rest of the season with the Milwaukee Bucks. I'm now starting and we're on a 10 game win streak and 2 games out of the last playoff spot. It seems that team chemistry plays a big part in the effectiveness of cpu teammates, as early on chemistry was low and my teammates weren't hitting anything. Now team chemistry is around 89 and they're knocking down the shots they are supposed to. Averaging 17.3 ppg, 9.3 reb, 2 ast, 1.3 blocks and shooting 68% from the floor as a post up PF on 10 min superstar. Hoping to finish strong to make a run in the playoffs.

Just earned a deal for the rest of the year with my Magic PG after putting up 11 points, 5 assists, and 3 steals vs the Knicks.

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

Started a new PF for the Kings. Didn't have a good first game. After the game, Cousins comes up to me in the hallway and tells me I played like a 50 year old bum. Had to laugh at the irony in that considering I'm actually 49 years old and not the best shape of my life sitting on a couch playing video games.

Playing pretty sim in my opinion.

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

I believe it's because it's waiting for you to set a screen or to get into a certain position. 90% of the time my PG is standing there dribbling, I set a screen, he will perform and pick 'n roll.

I figured that out.. but MY player is a SG.. he shouldn't be in the pick & roll.. the big guys don't come out and set it like they're supposed to

There are actually 100 upgrade points total, so you still have 26 more to allocate. You can max out the L16-18s and increase inside scoring to 16 if you wanted to. Not sure what needs to be done to unlock all the extra points, though, but I assume it just unlocks through playing.

really? where did you read this at?

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

Help, I'm currently playing NBA 2k15 on Xbox one. I can't seem to find the option to go into my park on one of my superstars in "MyCAREER". When I go to manage files it says "MyCAREER FILE 1 - NOT Connected" I've done some serious grinding to get his stats up and I don't have the option to go to my park until it's connected, how do I get my career file connected without starting a new player?


HELP!
Gt: A Potion.

Yesterday I had to wait until the servers were working again at nba2k.com/status.. I haven't seen the server status' GREEN since 2k15 was released, just turned off the game for a while and waited.. got lucky I guess

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

I'm playing on the Kings as a 6'9 230 pd PF. Put a little bit into rebounding, ath, inside and defense but I've decided that I'm just gonna max out Athleticism first and go from there. I'm having a lot of fun even just setting screens and boxing getting some rebounds and playing rim protector (because lord knows Boogie ain't doing it) and once I found out I could take slower PFs off the dribble it got even better.

But holy **** is the CPU annoying when it comes to making shots. I've yet to check but I'm sure I've played a few games where the CPU is 100% from 3. I find that when I set a screen for the ball handler my team somehow finds a way to get a bucket almost every time whether from a drive, PNR, kick out (my team's ball movement is surprisingly competent at times, laughably inept at others AKA pretty realistic I'd say) or Boogie cleaning up a miss. But when I get put in after we have inevitably fallen behind by around 10 pts its impossible to come back because the CPU DOES NOT MISS EVER. Completely takes the fun outta some games I've had i.e. the Spurs, Blazers, and Cavs. Kyrie and Lillard were completely ****ing unstoppable for some reason.

Also kinda upset I got put into the starting lineup only 3 or so games after my second 10 day contract ended. Seeing as how I only average 5pts 5boards right now it makes me think its more scripted then I thought. I played my two 10 day contracts in complete suspense.

anyone got a shoe deal yet?

I'm nearing the end of season 1, and after I dropped a career high 46 points in a come-from-behind victory over Boston, my agent stopped me in the tunnel after the game and told me that Nike/Jordan was interested in me, and that they would be watching me closely.

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

For all you guys playing MyCareer I have a question. Is the AI your playing against running the freelance offense and plays as fluidly as it was being shown in Czar's videos? Seems like this would make playing against the computer much more fun than in past iterations

Keep in mind, I'm having fun with the mode and I'm doing well, even with my 75 rated Center.

The CPU just goes NUTS on your players. They hit crazy contested layups, fadeaways, your players blow assignments, get completely blown by without the CPU having to even do a crossover. Maybe it's because I'm on the Raptors, but my teammate defense is embarrassing. Sometimes they get destroyed so fast there is literally nothing I could do.

Offensively I haven't had a problem scoring or helping my teammates score, but their defense is just terrible. And when it's good, the CPU makes the shot anyway. Kendrick Perkins is finishing in traffic. 2k needs to put the MyCareer sliders the same as the main game. If people want to play arcade style, they should leave it on default, but SIM should be SIM.

Pretty sure he's right. After a game when it says you earned a new attribute boost I think it's increasing the cap. Which is pretty insane because with 100 points to allocate guys wont have any weaknesses. In fact I'm hoping that caps are different for different positions because it's going to be a year of broken bigs again if that isn't the case.

That's disappointing to hear. I'll add it to my list of concerns this year lol. Curious, but would u say u can tell a difference when playing against the Spurs versus say the Grizzlies as it pertains to their play styles? This is something that I believe the franchise mode does well, but MyCareer has struggled to properly replicate

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

Did they take away the ability to give players undershirts and compression shorts? Or is that part of the accessory thing just not loading?

Edit: And is it just me or is it impossible to make your player LOOK bigger? You can edit their height and they get taller or shorter. But no matter how much you alter their weight, they still look skinny as a stick.

Has anyone else gotten their guy up with preordered vc and when having plenty of upgrades left it just says 0 upgrades available
