Re: Earning Badges in NBA 2K15

think I need to adjust my dunk packages or either I'm just too small

What are the dunks packages you have on? I use the Athletic Side/Front Tomahawks, and the Uber Athletic Tomahawk Of One/Two and I get a fair share of contact dunks.

Rockie are you holding back on the shot stick when you try to dunk? I had the same issue post patch when I pressed towards the basket, but if you press away from the basket, you will take off like before.

24 games into the deadeye quest and nothing.. It's the only badge left I care to have and it's annoying af getting. I wish it would at least say how close I am.
I've gotten Corner Specialist, Volume Shooter, Limitless Range, Eraser, Chase Down Artist, Transition Finisher, One Man Fast Break and Tenacious Rebounder (of useful badges) but Deadeye is just ugh

Deadeye has to be the most BS badge in the game. There is no way I have not unlocked it yet and like you said that is the only badge I don't have that I actually want.

Not only is it bs that big men don't have Bruiser but Bruiser should be limited to only PF and C. Does anyone have the Unpredictable or Legendary Work Ethic badge? Never saw a cut scene to trigger legendary work ethic in over 4 years of career mode. And no matter how much I alter my answers.. No unpredictable badge.

I have legendary work ethic. I saw on the other badge thread that used to stay on the front page in this forum that if you shoot in the gym before you go to games and then accept when your teammate or coach (depending on how well liked you are by the team) asks you to shoot around before the game starts that you'll get it.

So I made it a point to shoot no less than 10 jumpers prior to every game. It's one of the first badges I got.

Do you play on Pro to get all those hot spots? I feel like it's impossible to do that on HOF/SS.

Does anybody know how long it roughly takes to get a spot red? Does difficulty play into it?

Just got Acrobat. Currently going for spin layup, tear dropper, shot creator, floor general, closer, and deadeye.

Any tips on how to get these quickly? especially shot creator.

Well, it tells you exactly how to get Acrobat in the official list, as well as the others.

As far as Acrobat goes though, you need to go baseline and press up on the stick to initiate the reverse lay up animation. It doesn't really work any other way.

Anybody know how long it takes to get deadeye on Rookie?

Hmm. It seems like I would have surely got this badge then. It's not that important because I have career mode fatigue. As soon as I get my hot spots in order on my SF, I'm never touching the mode again unless I get a wold idea to create a 4th player. But thanks for the tip, I will try this before games for as long as it takes to get my hot spots.

It taking most people like 50+ games on Rookie. It would be faster to get on a harder difficulty.

You have to consider it's harder to actually make contested shots on harder difficulty, so that will offset it a bit.

It only takes one game on rookie. I got every zone outside the arc red in less than 5 games. You just have to make sure that you're shooting and making you shots in the actually zone you want each time.

Also, just a side note, even with all those 3PT zones red, I didn't notice any difference online.

Re: Earning Badges in NBA 2K15

Deadeye took me no more than 10 games on superstar taking 50+ shots a game

No matter what badges or hotspots you get shooting consistency is stuck at 50 which means a lot of blown shots

I played rookie to get all my badges as soon as possible. Although I didn't know this at the time, after reading the official information on Deadeye, it only took me 15-17 games (roughly 30-35 jumpers each game). Once you figure out the right way to do it, making 100 of them is a piece of cake.
