The MyLeague/MyGM 'Fix-It List'

Re: The MyLeague/MyGM 'Fix-It List'

All these patches...Game is still broken. Thanks 2K. Cool company.

I'm not going to call the game broken (enjoying it way too much for that), but I was definitely disappointed that this last patch didn't touch on a single issue mentioned here. Obviously we can't expect everything, but I did hope for an issue or two to see some improvement.

Re: The MyLeague/MyGM 'Fix-It List'

What I think part of the problem, outside of just the terrible contract logic, is that there isn't enough regression in the lower rated players.

As you progress you have a whole heap of guys rated around 70 and the cpu just sees no reason to resign or sign for that matter another similar guy.

If we had more regression for these lower rated players the cpu could hopefully better differentiate between a guy like Exum and another guy.

I think this is a factor, but an even bigger factor is the fact that we don't have guys completely bust or drop out of the league altogether. Young guys improve fairly consistently, and old guys regress fairly consistently, but we never see guys completely fall off the map or rookies who turn out to be useless.

I agree with that......the demand for mid level players is nonexistent because there are so many of them..... I have noticed that this year unlike years past, guys won't just sit as free agents unsigned for years and years, they will retire.

A small addition, but a good one.

Well, we don't really know when/if they've seen this thread. Barnsey tweeted a dev recently, but as far as we know patch 4 was already in its final stages at the time. Let's stay patient for now and keep sharing any issues we have with these modes.

Re: The MyLeague/MyGM 'Fix-It List'

It just really irritates me because I play every game of an 82 game/12 minute quarter MyLeague and to see that the rookies are still busted gives me nothing to look forward to after one season.

They also need to figure out how to tune the sliders so that players will actually get injured in played games.

Team Intel

Untouchables

When doing 30 team control and you select a player outside the team you are currently controlling, the player will be placed under the team you are controling and not the team the player is actually on.

Spoiler

EXAMPLE


I am controlling the Raptors. I scroll over to the Suns and select Eric Bledsoe. I have an option to place under Untouchables.. (Also, the Add To Trade Block option should be switched to Add to Target List)


He is then placed under the Raptors' Untouchables list instead of being placed under the Suns'.

Team State

The incorrect Team State is being given to some teams. I think the game is looking at the team's raw OVR rating instead of looking at their record. Two 50 win teams have been given the "Rebuilding" team state by the CPU.

Spoiler

Another thing, teams with the 'Contending' Team State are still likely to put some of their top players on the trade block.

Spoiler

Unless the first bullet is not to be taken literally, the top players on a contender shouldn't be getting shopped.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that this thread specifically had been ignored or anything...just that this thread happens to list all of the issues/inaccuracies that I can think of with these modes, and this patch didn't include any of them (whereas there's usually at least one important issue fixed/tuned in each gameplay patch). I'm merely disappointed...still patient though as it's pretty early in the yearly cycle despite being "patch 4" (we're not even 3 months from release yet...crazy).

Agree absolutely with Team Intel, states are often inaccurately assigned and teams act counter to their team state too often. To be honest, I usually find myself ignoring intel for the most part.

Im with you, the game is fun, but sadly these issues that have been brought up in this thread have been issues for years, it get old seeing the same issues each year. Gameplay other than lack of fouls and organic type turnovers is better than its ever been. Sadly the only mode I care about is My League and MY GM is intriging to me but its had to many issues since they put it in for me to play it.

Id say its a really good bet we dont get a patch to fix this stuff, and Id bet the farm on it. I just wish once they devs would actually put some work into these 2 modes, instead of adding gimmick modes and seemingly putting all their effort into online. IT sounded like this was the year we would get a good My League/GM, but thats not the case. New Years resolution is to quit buying the hype each year with NBA2k and dont buy it day1. I as well as anyone in my boat has only ourselves to blame really for buying it, so Im hoping I can stick to my guns come next year. Hopefully for once I can wait and see with this game before buying day1 come next years game.

Ill still enjoy this game for what it is I guess till MLBTS comes out, but this game could have been so much more this year with how solid gameplay is for both online players as well as the hard core sim basketball fans that like Association mode.

Re: The MyLeague/MyGM 'Fix-It List'

Last year a issue with draft classes was fixed with a roster update. I think every generated player had the same play types. I cant continue playing with the dish to open man tendency to low for sg, sf, pf and centers. Point guards are fine (Why not every position) Its crazy in your myleague future there will be players in the starting lineup averaging 0.0 and 0.1 assist. Crazy. How does this get pass testing if they test?

I have to raise every first rounder dish to open man tendency so every pg wont average 8 and up assist.

You're doing yourself a disservice if your using auto-generated draft classes. They're horrible.

Check out the SIMworld draft classes.... You'll never want to use auto-generated draft classes ever again.

We shouldn't have to use custom rosters or draft classes to have a legitimate sim experience in a game that hails itself as an NBA sim experience. They just need to get it together and fix their game...

Not to mention that each user-made draft class is only available on 1 out of 3 platforms. Another big help (if it's even possible) would be for these files to be cross-platform. Rosters, draft classes, sliders, logo uploads, etc...the last two in particular are especially surprising/annoying that they are locked to a platform.

Seriously, if draft classes were cross-platform, it would be much more possible to get an effort going here for multiple fictional classes. I'd still like to have believable auto-generated draft classes, but it would be a big help.

Re: The MyLeague/MyGM 'Fix-It List'

I agree with you, but we all know the majority of 2k attention goes to online and revenue generating modes.

Thank god we have great ppl who do amazing work.

The SIMworld team actually puts out story lines and college season results. So even if 2k made amazing classes, they still wouldn't have the detail and background you get with the SIMworld product.

Projects like Simworld are a big part of why I'd love to see files shared across all platforms so much--I'll never get to enjoy them unless I buy a specific console and a copy of the game for it (which I will likely never do).

Re: The MyLeague/MyGM 'Fix-It List'

Agreed....I bought the Xbox one pretty much because of it, it's a shame the files can't be used across platforms
