I’m pretty sure the game doesn’t like you being shoe horned into the starting lineup so quickly...I set myself at 24 minutes and put myself in the 6th man role, the team is playing so much better everyone’s production has gone up and I’m able keep pretty much the same production off the bench. LeBron went from averaging 24.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 5.8 assists in 26.6 minutes to 26.7, 5.9 and 6.4 in 29.7 while having 52, 43, 39, 37 and 33 point games as well as several 10+ assist games and flirting with a few triple doubles. Whiteside has had several 15+ rebound games. Porzingis is putting up 20 and 10 every few nights. Butler’s defensive and offensive stats have gone up and Corey Harris is shooting the lights out. I think I’m going to keep this lineup for a while. Bumped it back up to SS too.

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread
Supposedly playing on higher difficulties is one of them. I only see my percentage go up by about 3 on HOF as opposed to about 2 on any of the lower difficulties no matter how well I play.Say "No" to railroaded MC modes.Comment

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread
That plus spamming specialty moves. I read a excel on reddit showing how much my points you get for certain actions. Like you get alot of points for drawing charges, limitless 3s, combining actions together, posterizing dunks and such.Comment

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread
I'll admit, I've always been a MyPlayer/MyCareer PG pick-n-roll spammer.
I just got the game a week ago and I'm struggling. Eight games in and I still can't do anything off the pick-n-roll and my FG% is around 30%. I'm doing good if I can score 10-15 points on 25%-30% shooting. I am averaging 7 APG, but man, this has been tough and very frustrating.Comment

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread
Just wanted to share how I’ve leveled up to a 91 without a single VC coin purchase. I began playing on Thanksgiving weekend (picked it up during BF sales).
I play ~1 hour a day on weekdays
I play ~2 hours a day on weekends
*Play NBA games
*Practice facility
*Daily Spin
*Pick NBA winners for 100 VC each
*Complete daily objectives for 3000 VC
*Pick up endorsement checks (when available)
*Sprinkle in some Playground games (2v2 or 3v3) and focus on screens, good defense, rebounds, assists, and scoring (if your teammates actually look to pass, lol)
**I do not waste VC on anything, but increasing attributes (that means no clothes, shoes, tattoos, etc.).Comment

I haven't took advantage of the daily objectives like I should have. I have been diligent on using MyNBA2k app every day since the app came available in September. Never get anything good from Daily Spin but still use it daily.
Next time I play I have about 2000 VC from using app last couple days and daily pick'ems. I will be able to boost a expensive rating to get to 85 OVR. I have enough cap upgrades to get to 89 OVR and next Cap Breaker gets me to 90. I still have 30 games or less in rookie season. I can get enough VC in those games, endorsement, daily objectives, 2kapp to get to 90 OVR before end of season without buying VC.
I also haven't wasted VC on anything besides attributes. All I bought was 2-3 basic dunk packages. I'm still sporting brown shirt and gray sweat pants lol. I waited until Shoe endorsement to get free shoes. I haven't even been in any store besides Foot locker. I'm waiting to get to 90 OVR before I even buy more animation packagesComment

I have done similar approach. Have not spent a dime on VC.

I totally forgot to add; watch 2KTV recent and old episodes for a bunch of VC. You can also get new tops and bottoms from questions.
Some of the questions will be answered, but many will allow you to earn VC.Comment

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread
Bumping down to Superstar has made a huge difference for me. Don't have to play a perfect game to have a good game. Daily Bonus for 6000VC was to score 50 points in NBA/Pro Am games. I got that in 2 games. Last 2 games, I averaged 26 pts, 20 rebs, 5 assists, 4 blocks, 1.5 steals.
I have 3 games before ASW. I just got to 86 OVR. Just got initial max for block to 77. I pretty much all key ratings maxed to the initial cap. It'll take 28K VC to get to 89 OVR. With next cap breaker that should get me to 90 OVR. So it'll probably take 34K VC to get it to 90 OVR. It won't take me rest of season to get the VC. Just maxed Pick Dodger and Bruiser to gold. Will work on Catch and Shoot to Silver. Since I got the initial max for Mid Range, I do shoot better from close 3pt. And since my hotzone is the top of 3pt line, the drill was easier last 2 drills I did. I'm under 5000 points away. So I should get it within next 2 games and practices. Then will continue to work on Silver Pick and Pop and corner Specialist. Then All the badges I care about will be maxed in 1st season.
So, I'm just playing rest of season to get next cap breaker. I will get the VC I need in those games to get to 90 OVR. Won't really have to focus on ratings or badges. I declined Dunk Contest, never do well in that contest. Endorsements will also help get VC. I have been purposefully answering questions to get more fans. I didn't like the team takeover when I got it before. I got 1.3 million fans.Last edited by illwill10; 12-31-2018, 08:32 PM.Comment

Re: Official MyPlayer/MyCareer Thread
What’s your archetype? I’m a few games away from the asg myself sitting at a 91 ovr and almost at the fan count for the final Gatorade endorsement level. I lost a bit of interest in playing in the last day due to the game disconnecting me during the asg draft forcing me to skip it to continue. I have almost 50k vc saved up(would be more but I’ve used it on other builds). I’m still halfway from my cap breaker at moment but i should get there before next season.
I'm at 23.8% in current cap breaker. Last 2 games I got about 37K My points in each game. Hopefully i can get next cap breaker in next 10-15 games.
Do you get alot of My points participating in ASW? I really want to get to 90 just so I can recommend FAs and sim to next season. I'm pretty much done in this season progressing my player. Once I get Catch and Shoot and Pick and Pop maxed at Silver. Nothing else I care about this seasonComment
