    Re: Official NBA 2K17 MyCareer Thread

    Update 1: 7'3" 340lbs "Glass Cleaner" C drafted 1 to the Sixers game 15...

    1. The roster logic this year is still off. They put my guy in as starting PF with Okafor (5" shorter and 110lbs lighter) at center.
    2. Big Men are easy this year. Averaging 30pts and 15 boards a game with 21 minutes played. Rated 59 on SS.
    3. I am now in the reporter practice cut-scene loop where every practice I attend the reporter is asking me if I want to start drama.
    4. The time-out cut scenes with the coach are still annoying this year.

    I like this year's story-board MC better than any since switching to this format but it still leaves a lot to be desired for me personally. I like the Michael Jordan character and I like the clown character too .. I just enjoy the last generation sand-box MC much much more.

    I can't figure out a perimeter player arch-type I like. I love playing defense but this year's Lock Down Defender seems orientated to an inside big and the outside perimeter guys don't mess with the stats...

    The biggest lame thing is the draft selection being weighted so heavily on points. My guy averaged 5 steals and 3 blocks in college and was dropped into the low teens ... really?


    I also am getting annoyed with two ai "helping" actions - the first is whenever I enter the paint, and stutter step, the ai assumes I want to post-up .. this causes 3-second violations because the animation is just too slow to break out of.

    The second thing I'm getting tired of is my "Sharp-shooter" insisting on trying to drive more times then not - I get that the developer in charge of My Career thinks everyone wants to be Michael Jordan and Westbrook but enough is enough.

    Its like the minutes played - yes Jordan played 48 minutes but that was last century! This century, people rest their bodies and don't overuse minutes... I don't get why 2K is so current on their plays and schemes but on the rosters, time-outs and such they continue to act like 1999 practices are all the rage.

      Have you guys transferred your face scan from prelude to MC without problems?

      Mine has different jaw sculpture than in Prelude. And when I try to make a face again with the same scanned photos I get much different (lame) result.

        Mine transferred over fine.

        Sure there have been other people with an issue similar to yours. I scanned my face for 2 hours before getting what i have now, and it not as good as some posted on here.

        Think you will need to scan your face again, to the result you want

            In every game, as soon as I'm subbed in, there is always a timeout called on the first dead ball. Ugh! It's frustrating. On a positive note, I had a game with 14 points, 8 assists and no turnovers in a win last night. That's about what I'm looking for as a playmaking point guard.

              Pretty realistic numbers.

              In your opinion (if you were to take a guess), what do you think a PG or SG Sharpshooter should get points per game, on average?

                I guess it would depend on minutes. If you're 10-15 games into your season like I am and getting around 17 minutes a game, I'd say 12 to 15 ppg would be realistic. It depends a lot on who you're playing with, too. If you've got a ball-hogging teammate, it gets tough at times. Lol!

                  That I don't know... it seems kinda random. I'm still level 1 with Nike but out of no where my agent messaged me and said that Foot Locker was upgrading me to level 2 - and I hadn't done anything with them yet but sign the initial contract. Of course, I do not have those shoes yet.... Stupid events

                    I started on level 3 with addidas and have been then ever since. Now into early december.

                    No sure if your ratings have anything to do with it?
                    Dont quote me on this, i may have started lower and not checked early enough. I'll have a look once am home.

                    I definatly started at 3 with footlocker though.

                      Just a thought and may be easier said than done but wouldn't it be dope if they let us play each other's throughout our careers like I'm with the sun's so if I face someone on the nuggets in my career then we play. I guess they could region lock it or something [emoji23]

                          I'd say Spike Lee's story was worse, even though the cutscenes, particularly at the start can be boring and you can't skip it.

                          This year seems way better than last year IMO.

                            Hey guys

                            I have the choice between the twolves and the suns (I'm a point guard). What would you choose ? Thanks

                                Oh yeah, I read in this thread it has to do with ratings and even draft position. The better ratings/draft position means you sign with sponsors and come in at a higher level. That's pretty neat. What's your ovr and draft position?

                                I went #10 to the Bucks and at the time I was about 63 ovr.

                                T Wolves!!!! The only thing between them and championships is developing young players. You can fit into that picture...
