Earning Badges in NBA 2K15

Re: Earning Badges in NBA 2K15

I've been trying to get the Brick Wall badge for my center and it seems like the "good screen" teammate grade only works on the first few offensive possessions of the game. After that, you can't get a "good screen" the rest of the game, regardless of how many you set.

Is anyone else experiencing this bug?

yea i just got it on my center after 40+ games, only took me like 5-6 on my SF. Basically i just set 2-3 good screens at the start of the game and proceeded to complete any other badge that i needed .. dimer/hustle points etc..

Finally got deadeye. Funny thing was I was about to give up so the game I only tried 10 contested shots or so. I was surprised when I got deadeye. Then I decided to go for posterizor the next game. I only did 2 or 3 contact dunks and a lot of lay ups but I got Posterizor after the one game

This is wrong, for deadeye you need to be playing on all-star or higher, I'm also fairly certain the same applies to closer as well.

I've gotten about 1 contact dunk in the past 3 games using the PnR method but its still difficult to do since I'm a center... maxed out athlete, anyone have any other tips for posterizor on a Center? (I have transition finisher and lob city finisher)

Only equip dunks that elicit the contact animation. The tomahawk category is a go-to here.

I got deadeye on pro and most of the time trying was on rookie

Had redone my PF. I had Unfazed on him the first time but am having a heck of a time getting it again.

I got it on rookie, but I had to make like 400 shots to get it.

... no you are wrong.

Closer is difficulty irrelevant. And Deadeye's algorithm "might be more difficult on rookie/pro" but does NOT necessitate it.

Going for Shot creator now, hope I can get it by just doing pain jumpers. Got Fade ace a few days ago. Those along with Master in and Out and Stepback Freeze are the last badges I want on my SF before I go to my PG.

My advice on shot creator is equip elite 2 in dribble pull up and go to town with the running hop jumper animation. I was able to get this fairly easy, hell, it was easier than acrobat.

I recently decided I wanted to add Drop-Stepper to my list of badges, although I already have tear dropper, I seem to be open for so many drop steps I would think it silly not to add it to my arsenal. Besides that I am still battling for Hustle Points at the PG position (I have tenacious rebounder), but I only get about 7 minutes per game when I am in as a SG to really make a legit attempt at that.

As far as drop stepper goes, does doing it out of a post move apply to getting it or is it like Fade Ace where you have to take the shot without engaging in the post position for it to count towards it?

Fade Ace was my first real shooting badge outside microwave, volume shooter and unphazed (which I received all within the beginning two weeks of my point guards career). I recommend it for everyone as it made things like stepback pro and post hoperator a piece of cake to obtain. Plus post fades and Fadeaways in general are so damn handy.

Got a question for pf/c's, how many bars do you you need to have a 60 pass accuracy for break starter? I have to plan ahead and I really don't want to waste anything extra on playmaking.

Re: Earning Badges in NBA 2K15

I am pretty sure you need 10 upgrades to get 60 Pass Accuracy. I did check and it was a long while ago.

However you can check for yourself, just create a new save, during your tryout game just go to the park and go to the upgrades screen.

you will have to buy 15 rebounding upgrades just so you could get this badge, which seems like a waste as you rebound just as good with a max athlete.

I'm struggling to get the hop step shot. I'm double tapping Square/X and holding turbo. I just read how to do it but it still kinda weird.

I hate that since I'm trying to stay away from Volume Shooter, the most shots I can take per game is 24. Would be much faster to get these shooting badges if I was not avoiding it.
