Re: My Career 2k21 Thread

I hope i get it because the way how terrible these 10 man rotations are they never play the right people and your teammates are already trash so they need more minutes to produce their equivalent stats that they normally would, like Zach Lavine is averaging 28ppg but in mycareer he only averages 22ppg but he only gets 28mpg so if i could up his minutes and edit our rotation his production would go up... Which is why i really wanna edit rotations... And playbooks my team doesn't take enough 3s and idk this career really sucks for me honestly A.I defense is so trash, P&R defense sucks and its too easy to slash to the paint... I wish we had sliders for this

Those abilities should unlock at the same time. It's supposedly between before ASW/50-60 games. But, I never unlocked unlocked that ability for my player. You should get the ability to unlock Custom Sounds around 20 games, Custom Playbooks around 40-43 games.

I didn't sim a game at all my Rookie season and never got it. I even got ability to make Custom shoe by end of season. I guess some files were bad were some never unlocked it. I'm probably 5-7 games into 2nd season and still didn't unlock it. Only thing I simmed through in rookie season was dunk contest, but still did the Rising Star and AS game. I did sim each playoff game. But still should have unlocked it. It's sucks to because just ability to edit Rotations and suggest trades always added depth in MyCareer for me in the past. So many around the edges trades I would make for our bench to be better.

I can see that.

Playing at Hof for my rookie season, teammates are beyond terrible. We still managed to win a lot of games, but it felt like it was benefitted from me playing a very efficient playstyle. At Superstar, teammates are a little better, but still not reliable as you want. It's not as bad as it was in 2k15-2k17, but MyCareer is still built on your player having to put major numbers just to win games. 2k15-17, I remember having to average 40+ just to win games. Now, I usually have one teammate I can rely on scoring 20+ most nights. But wish there were sliders in MyCareer. My Center has Gold Dimer, Silver Bullet Passer, and 75 Pass and I always see teammates missing wide open 3s very frequently.

For my team on Kings, I don't really have an issue with rotations, other than me not wanting to play 38 minutes a game. My main issue with that is the Overall Rotation AI logic in MyCareer. You constantly see 2 non-floor spacing bigs in the same lineup often. Or guys you know can't play on floor together. I wish they would fix t that AI Rotation Logic. I mainly want that trade suggestions perk. I have no desire to have an all star lineup. I just want to improve our starting SF and get a couple bench players to improve team.

I adjusted our playbook to incorporate more looks that involve my Center. So most 3 point plays involve my Center either setting the screen that gets a teammate open or my Center making the pass to a open teammate. Most of the playbook, I did that so I could generate more assists for my Center. It didn't work as I wanted it, but still will adjust Playbook. One thing I had to do was remove Post Ups from any players Play Priority l. IDK why, but it feels like in MyCareer that game flows through players who post up or slash primarily. When I was on Grizzlies, JJJ got most of the playcalls and it was mostly post ups. On the Kings, Bagley was getting a lot of post ups throughout games. I had to remove that just because they would get so cold fast. Even going against other teams, game would prioritize post up players that they shouldnt had. Like I would face Thunder, and Horford would get a lot of post up looks. So removing those post up play Priority form players, did open up the offense. But the issue I seen throughout playing it AI teammates would take way too many contested slashes. I love to screen, but it feels like everytime i do, teammates will slash and take a contested look.

Around games 50-60 in rookie season, I was expecting to get the ability to influence trades and rotations after each game. Now, I lost all hope for it lol
