I like the shot of Tayshaun checking the score, even if it's a little early for that.

Re: MyPlayer Quarter Length IS CHANGABLE!!!!!

Phew, that's a relief.

Now, when you say external file, just what do you mean by that exactly? Do you mean to a jump drive?

[idrisguitar]

Re: MyPlayer Quarter Length IS CHANGABLE!!!!!

no

basically, ken north started my player before changing the default setting, so when i started again he had to load a seperate setting file in order for it to work

basically, you dont have to do anything, just make sure you change the setting before you start, then the autosave setting should be fine.

Re: MyPlayer Quarter Length IS CHANGABLE!!!!!

i told you everybody was jumping the gun now alot of people feel stupid but im happy that you happy but i was never worried about this 5 min situation cause i know 2k sports better than that and didnt jump to conclusions

Re: MyPlayer Quarter Length IS CHANGABLE!!!!!

After watching the video that Ken posted it would appear that the best setting to get realistic stats would be 12min quarters.

In 5 min quarters the score was 10-10

Play 12 min quarters and just sim until you get on the floor....unless your guy becomes some superstar that would be about 24 min per game which is awesome

Yeah you're touching on a problem I'll be pondering all week. If the time is not changeable after we've already begun, then I need to figure out exactly what time would be perfect for this mode. If I do 12 minutes, it looks like that's the time for NBA, NBDL, and Summer League and I bet I'd get heavy minutes in the latter two, so that would be a little too long for me.

My question is, are all the other NBA games set at 12 minutes for simulated length? I think that they are, but just double checking.

Re: MyPlayer Quarter Length IS CHANGABLE!!!!!

Can you adjust the season length ? Or sim games ?

If not there´s no way for me to get any sort of career established with an 82 game season.

Assuming you play 5 min quarters : Once you are a starter it will be like 15 minutes a game (brutto time propably 20 with breaks and everything) . If you play 4 games a day on average (aka 1 hour 20 minutes), you´ll need about 20 days for a season and 200 days for 10 years.
And playing that amount of time is optimistic for me, especially when splitting time with Franchise Mode...

And now figure in wanting a realistic feel and play 10-12 min quarters you can double that number.

The NBA just is not cut out for a real my player experience in comparison to f.e. the NFL with a 16 game schedule.

There would be no harm done simulating games and not receive skill points, which is sth i´d be fine with doing (and just settle for a ok-good player instead of a great one) and for a shorter season goes the same.


Again, there should be a distinction between Online and Offline, then you could just make a shorter season and get prorated skill points under the condition that you can´t take the player online.
