Re: NBA 2k18 Wish List

My wish 2k18 wish is to remove all online modes or any money makin schemes 2k has and just focus on myGm or myLeague modes just like the ol days and remove all the historic and my career coz they will never be able to create a good my career storyline. just give a authentic and most realistic current NBA team and game as possible.

MyPlayer related
- re-distribute attributes (be able to take away from a certain attribute and add it to another)
- add a progress bar to the the gym exercises in the practice gym and have it affect your MyPlayer (vertical jump increases vertical, weight exercises increase strength, etc...). Can also add this type of system to shooting exercises to increase 3's, passing etc...
- attribute upgrades after an X number of games played like before. I ain't trying to be in a damn virtual gym all day. If i am, it better be worth it.
- drills related to your archetype. If I'm a post player, why would i want to practice my 3's?!?

MyPark Related
- Rating system to rate players you've played with so i know if they're a good teammate or not.

Upping this.

There are too many repeat topics and individual wishlist threads. These will be locked going forward.

Let's use this thread to compile our wish lists.

Re: **Official NBA 2k18 Wish List Thread**

Sorry,what wishlist idea's have actually made it into the game?

I don't want to waste time saying anything here just to have it disappear into the wind if 2k decides they don't want to read it.

I just want Shaq to stop getting completely shut out by a IT boxout... seriously the boxout system is beyond dumb and makes me want to fight someone.

Too many to remember, to answer your question. No need to be sorry.

Whether you decide to post here is completely up to you, but there are definitely eyes on the wishlist thread every year.

I think the franchise mode devs base plenty of their design choices off the ML/MyGM thread.

Re: **Official NBA 2k18 Wish List Thread**

This is a small request since I play with the Warriors get Steph Curry pregame routine where he's dribbling 2 basketball's because it will add authenticity to the game.

Technical Fouls & Ejections!! They already have some animations that could be used, I made an example:

Re: **Official NBA 2k18 Wish List Thread**

When I get an itch to play 2K, I usually play NBA Today games. There are times where some players are last minute scratches and it's not something reflected in a roster update. For example, tonight Dennis Schroder has been ruled out vs the Heat due to a suspension. In 2K, he's starting against the Heat. It would be cool if we had an option during the pregame screen to not only make substitutes, but change the rotation and give players things like a DNP - CD. That way, we can manually choose to have players sit out games on a game to game basis instead of a global change

Not sure if it was some offensive mechanic that changed or the defense, but dribbling on release day and dribbling from the prelude rivaled the dribbling in Live 2010. I was actually able to explode out of my moves and get to the rim. But the thing I liked was that it wasn't possible to do that with any player. Playing with Kyrie was completely different from playing with Dragic.
I played little big planet for the first time the other day and I noticed that you're able to control the left and right arms separately. Now I'm terrible with explaining things, so maybe someone can help me out if they get where I'm going with this. I was thinking if 2k implemented a system where the user holds a modifier such as L2 and R2, which allows them to then control where the ball goes when using the left and right analog sticks.

had another thought, what about having the right analog stick controlling which hand the ball goes to. Then the left analog controls what direction you move in. While holding the modifier, your stamina would go down quicker, kind of like what happens now when using dribble moves. You can then explode out of dribble moves by holding the modifiers and then pushing both analog sticks in the direction you want. If you do it too early when a defender is in front of you, it would be a charge.
Now obviously, this would require players to actually have stick skills so it would be difficult to learn, and it would require 2K to change the onball defense. The CPU reacting to what the user does on the controller before their player begins the move has to go.
Like I said before, I'm not the best of expressing my thoughts but hopefully you guys understand what I mean or can come up with something better. Also, it goes without saying that everyone shouldn't be able to explode out of dribble moves easily or with the same speed. Ratings have to matter. Dribbling with James Johnson should be different than dribbling with Kyrie

Re: **Official NBA 2k18 Wish List Thread**

Separate settings and sliders between online and offline; don't mix the two. Tweaks made to make online more arcade-like should have no bearing on offline manager modes. Make the online gameplay settings server-based and offline driven from the original game and patch updates. The wants/desires of the two camps are totally incompatible in my opinion. This is the biggest issue facing all of the sports games. An offline user shouldn't have a more "sim" experience modified because people online choose to play a vastly different game mode.
The way the games are designed now, with companies trying to appease both camps with the exact same settings, you get a situation where neither side will be happy at the same time.

Lots of people like to play online, lots like to play offline. Let's not mix our personal preferences into the discussion for a moment and ask ourselves what the root issue is....that root issue being that we're literally talking about two completely different games.

Re: **Official NBA 2k18 Wish List Thread**

I wish they would go back to each arena and record actual crowd specific noise and chants. Ball specific sounds is something people really didn't care about.

Re: **Official NBA 2k18 Wish List Thread**

Same wishlist that I have every year, minus the stuff that has actually made it into the game over the years

- Change the mechanics of the hook shot/floater
Change the hook shot to a separate button, I don’t know maybe clicking down on the right stick will initiate a hook shot (you could even give it a shot meter).
The only reliable way to initiate a hook shot is with your back to the basket, when you face up you have to hope the computer gives you a hook shot animation, most of the time it will give a driving layup animation or a silly 2 handed layup animation.
This could create interesting chain moves. Imagine being able to post up in triple threat, pivot to face up, jab step and hook shot, something as simple as that is basically impossible in 2k17 or just being able to drop step base line and hook shot like Dwight does 80 % of the time in the video bellow (starting from 20sec).

- big man floater and hook shot layup package
They should make a big man layup package that is comprised of standing hook shots and floaters..basically just a bunch of standing layup animation like this for example.

- Give us a power dribble animation from the post

- Spin layup out of tripple threat
Like this (couldn't find the one joel embid this year but it is similar)

- Make it harder to get into good post position
Much too easy to get into prime post position in 2k17


- Offensive fouls on people who abuse aggressive back-down in the post


- Fix timing of rebounds
This could be done by refining over the back and goal tending fouls. If you get box out and jump at all it should be an over the back foul 100% of the time. If you jump too early it should be goal tending 100% of the time.

- Standing pump fake up and under


- Fix shot meter for the hook shots
The shot meter for hook shots were introduced this year, which is a good thing however, some of the animations are bugged in regards to timing for example: Hook shot 13 you can get green releases 100% of the time it is glitched as hell, while hook shot 11 and the sky hook are incapable of getting a green release no matter what your timing is like.

- And of course fix the double team bull****

Re: **Official NBA 2k18 Wish List Thread**

I don´t know if i buy 2k18 because its every year the same like fifa or madden but in My Team they have so many historic teams/ players my wish for my career is that you can choose your time when you play!
you should be able to start a new career in today´s time or going back to the 80´s 90´s and 2000´s imagine your player is drafted in say 1985 to the Bulls and you are together with a young Michael Jordan and play against guys like Bird , Magic Johnson and so on
