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

Not sure, we haven't seen any patch notes yet. i dont think they're even finished making the gameplay patch.

Theres a difference between a game play patch and a patch that would add the option to change sim quarter length?

For those of you having problems with your team mates playing like trash, two words: team chemistry. Your team plays better even on HoF. The CPU still cheats like hell tho lol

Well I'm sure they'll look at that as well. I'd make sure to put it in the patch threads so the devs see it.

I topped out at 89% team chemistry in my rookie year and my guys on the Kings still played like garbage. Complete garbage. Team chemistry doesn't matter in your first year. After that, yep. Nothing helps your 1st year (rookie year).

2nd year, I'm destroying the CPU.

No I chose the Cavs in my 2nd year, and we won 6 straight games and team chemistry started at around 50%. It wasn't until we played the Thunder when Westbrook and Durant beat us to a pulp in our own house and sent me to the locker room crying.

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

I'm about 20 games or so into my second season with my new team (Knicks) and the team chemistry is already at 100% Doe sthis mean we will never loose again? Will I at least get a cookie?

...and despite me beingthe team leader in scoring -and leading the LEAGUE in Rebounds and blocks per game - my coach satisfaction is only at 55%..I swear it's gone down of late. Whatthe heck Doc want? How do I get on his good side?

Coach Directives, Turnovers, Being scored on, etc. They all lead to coach satisfaction grade, regardless if you're A+ teammate grade.

Yes it does Well at least in my case. I'm on the Thunder, 68-1 overall record in my second season without forcing anything. Some days I will get 30 or more and some days Westbrook and some days Durant, some days all of us. Usually we mow down every opponent purely because with me as a 90 rated Center and Ibaka at 84 the middle is pretty much closed and I grab around 28 rebounds, Ibaka another 7-8 and then Westbrook chips in and a couple from Durant. Durant actually is great to play with because he has a high FG% and usually doesn't force anything if the game doesn't go his way. His scoring average went down because I'm on the team but he still managed 22 3 and 3 and now focuses on blocks and steals a lot more. So it's clicking absolutely magnificently. Coach rating simply sucks because a lot of times Doc calls certain plays you are the only one obeying him.

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

I have a strong feeling my team that has been doing so well lately, is about to hit a major slump The next 17 days of my teams schedule (early January of my 2nd year) My Raptors draw the Cavs twice...and the Thunder twice

[hedop]

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

Depends entirely on the makeup of your team. Like I said with my Thunder, I think it's simply the diversity of the team that makes us blow out most other teams: Ibaka, Lamb, Westbrook and Durant can all at one point or another shoot the three, which means usually we get 8-10 3's a game. Durant and Westbrook defend fairly well on the perimeter and if anything comes inside they have to get past me and Ibaka. Ibaka, me, Westbrook, Durant and Lamb are all quick as hell so we can always run the fastbreak. Ibaka, Durant, Westbrook and me are decent inside finishers and with me focusing solely on it, we can beat up teams inside easily. Ibaka, Durant, Westbrook and me are all very good Rebounders and shot blockers for our position so we barely can pretty much eliminate any inside presence like the Raptors, Charlotte, Houston etc. The Cavs don't have an inside presence as Love is the only true big man on that team and Lebron can't cope with a real Center inside, not some flimsy 6'9 excuse for a center. Add to that a decent and deep bench with Adams, Morrow, Perkins and some young PF/C and we have pretty much a team that can do it all. Once I upgrade my players jumpshot full, there will be no way to stop us because we have 4 people on the floor who can hit the three consistently, 4 guys that can beat you up in the post, 2 guys who keep the paint clean and another 2 perimeter defenders, add to that massive speed and a lot of quick passing and you can pretty much do whatever you want with any team you like.

I think the real secret is spreading the load though. You have 3 players who will score at least 20 or more most nights, that gives you 60-70 or even 80 points without even going to 4 and 5 on the court, if they contribute another 10 each you are pretty much done, add to that Morrow, Adams, Collison and Perkins who can each score between 4 and 14 coming from the bench and you beat teams purely on offence already. Now add my 7-9 offensive rebounds, Ibakas 2, and between 40 and 60 defensive rebounds and around 10 blocks a night and you don't need to fear anyone, unless the Cavs sign Howard and Harden

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

Hey guys. I just started mycareer. I really want to play for the Rockets and they never express interest in me (I'm a SF). I'm currently on my 2nd 10 day with the Raptors. Is there anyway for me to play for the Rockets? I get feud with this mode because i can't ever seem to get the Rockets.

Does it not happen until the 2nd season? Is that even a 100% guarantee i can play with them then? I thought the whole point this year was to make it easier to play for your team

I'm not he rockets don't go Dwight thinks he's dirk and try all kinds of bulls*** turn arounds all day and harden couldn't hit a lay up to save his life and seems to enjoy only taking shots when he's run into the paints and now has 3 guys on him

Raptors dont have an inside presence ....well at least mine dont in my 2nd year. My entire roster has a total of TWO big men and they both in the starting lineup (Patterson at the 4 and JV at the 5) out of the 10 man raoter my team is currently playing on the floor any given night, it has those 2 big men, 2 SF (James Johnson and th newly acquired Tucker from the Suns) and all the rest are guards, and if by some disaster one of my bigs do get hurt, im stuck with tiny coming out of my reserves to replace him, just like what happened in my rookie seasonm when Valanciunas went down to injury for the rest of the year so i was stuck with a centre that couldnt even see over the top of the head of my 6'4 Pg if i stood right in front of him (referring to the league fearing, super intimidating skyscraper of a man, the mighty 6'6 Hayes)

So we been having our success from either the long bombs or thru speed and drives to the baskets only 2 players on my team cant put up a 3 and those being J. Johnson and JV but all others are always a threat from long range (me, Ross, DeRozen, Vasquez, Cato, Dragic, and yes, even my starting Pf patterson can be a threat from there as he is our teams secret weapon cuz he is good for about 1-2 threes in a night and most teams dont take a Pf on the perimeter very seriously so he usually always has an open look when he puts one up.

So my teams success is usually 15-20 points from JV up front and most of his usually coming off rebounds since he has tenacious rebounding plus the badge that i cant recall that helps him succeed more at putbacks, then about 15-30 points from me, depending on how much early space the teams give me which determines if i go off early in the game or not to draw a double team to start burning them with it in the 2nd half when they try it. Derozen so far in my game is averaging over 25 ppg which has him in the leagues top ten and currently first on my team as im only at 20.6 ppg but i also add my 6.8 rpg and 12.3 assists and 3.1 steals per game to the mix. then patterson is good for 10-15 or so from me feeding him on pick and rolls or hitting him on the perimeter for the odd 3 here and there as mentioned previously, and the rest of the team sharing the rest of the load whether it be me feeding Ross a bunch of 3's in the corner for a 20 point game or feeding Dragic or Vasquez for 3's when the comes off the bench.

So right now, my Raptors are sitting nicely on a 23-12 record but that is soon gonna change for the worst cuz as i mentioned previously im at the "OMG we're doomed, SAVE ME!!!" part of my schedule

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

After playing MC pretty much exclusively this first month, reading through this thread, MC just isn't worth the time. Its just not 2k basketball.

68-1 because team chemistry is 100% is something I never wish to see in my basketball video game.
