Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

my season is going along great...just having a hard time sitting down and finishing it since im getting distracted with my association(player lock) franchise

lead the league in 4 major categories(points, rebounds, assists, and steals) per game...although, im barely beating kobe in scoring and dwight in rebounding since i've missed like 5 games with an injury and the cpu have an extra 3 minutes per quarter of simulated playtime compared to my 9 minute quarters

winning mvp and defensive player will be a cinch...not worried about seeding since im well ahead with a 43-3 record...

You don't think it's time to up the difficulty yet? LOL. I average a trip-dub, but the fact that we are not going to make the playoffs and still lose our fair share of games, means I'm staying here for awhile.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Good afternoon Gents, I'm new to the 2k board. I'm also fairly new to 2K11, or at least the My Player version of the game. Last 2K game I bought was 08, so my skills are admittedly rusty.

I like the MyPlayer mode, however I'm running into a problem that's likely been addressed somewhere in this 300 page thread...so apologies. I'm hoping someone can help me through some frustration.

6'7" SF, currently rated a 60, about 33 games into my first season. Drafted by the Grizz, traded to my hometown Rockets. For the Grizz, managed to begin starting over Rudy Gay (which makes no sense, but whatever) but asked for a trade start over Battier, and play with my hometown team.

Trade goes through, and we win our first two games. We've now lost 12 of our last 13, and on a 10 game losing streak. We haven't lost by LESS than 25 points in any of our last 5 games. Them's the breaks...right?

My frustration is that Aaron Brooks will literally dribble for 18 seconds and jack up horrible 3 after horrible 3. I'll be in the spot to start the play, and he just stands there. His shooting percentages are below 20% in each of the last 12 games....I'm talking 2-14, 1-15, 3-18, etc. On the plays that we feed Yao, we score well, but that's far in the minority. Brooks shoots us out of games. I've counted as many 7 possessions in a row where he did exactly that: dribble, dribble, jack. The other team then goes from being up 2 to being up 16, and it always happens in the second quarter. In the third quarter, the other team goes on a normal run (like NBA teams do) and we're down 25. This has happened every game for the last 5 or 6 games.

Is this thing scripted? Is it on me to take the game over and prevent this from happening? My Player still sucks, but I'm working on it. I just got named Rookie of the Month averaging 9 pts and 10 rebounds, so I'm on the right track...but these losses are killing me. It's costing me skill points, and our team chemistry is crap.

I probably sound like a billion other posters with the same issue, and if so I'm sorry. But it's making the game un-fun. It's difficult to even go after offensive rebounds because I'm standing in my target waiting for a play to get run. Next thing I know, another horrible 3 is getting jacked up by AB.

Any help is appreciated, and thanks.

I KNOW EXACTLY what you mean. My Player (215# 6'8" SF) was drafted by Oklahoma City, didn't have any issues w/ that b/c they're an up & coming team. However just like you, we won 7 of the 1st 10 (of course I was coming off the bench playing behind Durant). However I notice that Westbrook would fire up bad 3s as well, but not as often as Brooks did in your explaination, nonetheless he would take 'em. & if I was in the game w/ Durant, you can best believe he was firing up jumpers from everywhere, he was hardly passing the ball or driving to the hoop. I ended up asking for a trade b/c I knew my playing time would be limited as I wasn't going to start over Durant & whenever in the game, the would sub me in playing PF or C (can you say mismatch). I'm tempted to start My Player career over & look for sliders w/ adjusted player & coaching tendencies.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

I just dropped 18 highlight plays in a key game. I love that the alley oop gives me one for an oop score and one for a dunk (when I dunk it), and I have a play where I can call for an oop at will.

I'm tempted to start My Player career over & look for sliders w/ adjusted player & coaching tendencies.

There are no sliders for this mode. Also, the bad shot selection from teammates is a problem many are reporting. I'm a small forward too (Nets), but my teammates tend to shoot well. They shot much better when our chemistry was higher though.

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

Ok, finally finished my 2nd season with my PG. I left Memphis and now on Chicago and I maxed out everything!

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

haha think i f'd myself. was on the spurs doing good. we won almost ever game i averaged 15 points 15 assists as a starter, great team. but they are all old, like 30 plus execpt for tony parker..so i requested a trade to a couple teams i like. i instead got sent to the cavs and all i can say is no wonder lebron left. you have to score 30 points game just to have a shot at winning. and its hard to get 10 assists..time for a trade. come on team i wanna be on come on haha

i probably should...i dont care enough about shooters anyway so the low shooting percentage wont even matter and the game might actually get a bit more interesting due to the challenge

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

It just looked like a was called for a foul and was subbed out. I tipped the pass out of bounds and my player started to argue with the ref. It looked like it was a tech. I didnt get a foul but was subbed out quickly.

what console are you using?

never seen my player argue with a ref before and the idea of a technical foul seems so strange to me(then again so are charges)

[illwill10]

Re: Your Myplayer Career (NBA 2K11)

My player just started to agrue at the Ref. I agreed with the play, but my player didnt like it. The ref did the foulish signal

you could try player lock association...sliders are available...you'll probably have less time stressing over shooting percentages with the custom sliders for AI

i just like my player mode for the milestone tracksheet....
