Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

NBA 2K12 is a basketball video game developed by Visual Concepts and published by 2K Sports. It was released on October 4, 2011 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, Microsoft Windows, Wii and for the first time on iOS iPhone and iPad. For the first time there will be three different covers to choose from when picking up the game, with Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Michael Jordan being the cover athletes of the game.[1] Each will appear on a different version of the game.[2] Jordan was also on the cover of NBA 2K11. It is the thirteenth installment in the NBA 2K series, the first game in the series to have "built-in" support of 3D for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions, and the first to include motion controls using the PlayStation Move. NBA 2K12 is the successor to NBA 2K11 in the NBA 2K series.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Hi guys, I am playing a SG who is currently at his sophomore year and is a 3-point specialist (ray allen inspired), I am playing on pro/default/12min quarters. Although my 3 point shot is already at 91, I can't even hit open threes and I am getting raped in almost every game I play. Is this a bug? I know there was a bug that your created player would get cold and couldn't hit shots but I thought they fixed it...

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

After a terrible game where I played the Celtics (I quickly picked up several fouls, barely got any playing time, and turned the ball over numerous times) we played the Bulls. It looked like we had a chance to win but eventually got blown out haha. I got a career high 16 points, and had 2 NASTY blocks, on the first one Noah set a screen on me and I fell in a push-up position for like 5 seconds, then got back up and sprinted to get the block (I don't remember on who) but there were like 3 other hands so I was surprised I got it. The second one was on a fast break and what looked like a one on one I came in time to get the chasedown and it was nice I think I have 11 blocks on the season (in like 13 games). I'm gonna save up all my money for Rondo's layup package which is 2 mill, and my rookie contract is 2 years 1.97 mill :/ so does that mean its gonna take me into my third season?

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

What stat is more important when driving to the hoop?

Strength or Ball Handling? Both?

I'm not sure what those two attributes are called but sometimes when I drive in for a dunk or a layup I lose the ball going up (the game usually says I was blocked but it doesn't look like a block).

Will increasing either of those two attributes help at all?

If not could someone give me a suggestion please.

Definitely Ball Security. I dont think Strength plays a part in Driving to hoop.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Finally started a my player. A 6'5(My real height) PG from Marquette.
Made him a 3 point specialist. Scored 32 pts in the Rookie Showcase.
I was interviewed by the Bucks(10th pick), Warriors(11th pick) and Jazz(12th pick). I told every team I didnt want to play there. Milwaukee has Jennings, GS has Ellis and Curry, and well I just dont like the Jazz or the idea of playing in Utah.

I dropped to the 26th pick(not sure) and was drafted by Dallas.
I like the fit but I am concerned the GM is going to end up trading Dirk.
Do star/top players get traded alot in my player like they did last year?

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Quick question: I cannot find this info anywhere.....

In 2k11 you could influence management trades and free agent signings. I am 1/3rd of the way done with my 3rd year. Was an all star in season 2. Have 100 in teammate chemistry and they don't ask me like they did in 2k11. Any idea if it happens or when?

I am with the Bucks and we have 4 PGs (I am one also) and 4 SGs on the roster. Very unbalanced and we get destroyed on the boards.

Thanks for the info and when I should expect management to come to me.

Anyone? Somebody must know. If you can't influence rosters at all that's a big step back from last year. ;(. My roster is fundamentally flawed.

Strength is more for driving when there's traffic in the paint. Strength is more for things like posting up and such, where you need to have strength to back down your man and establish position, etc.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

for my all-round pg,


i got 5 key games left in my 1st season.

boosted his overall to 70.

he now has 99 mid range, 84 3 pt (gonna keep doin shootin drills till it gets maxed out), 86 inside

62 dunk (will not touch till season 2), 83 layup (will get to 90), 87 on-ball d (will max out), 74 steal (will bump to 80 for now)

89 vertical (will max out before season ends), 90 shot in traffic (maxed)

82 speed (havent touched speed, wont for a while cuz its so effin expensive)


so anyways, i have yet to touch any abilities, and i dont reccomend making an all-round PG since most are all on POOR lmao.


and shot in traffic at 90 hasnt helped me a bit.

oh and im having trouble hitting shots like all of you.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Wanted to try this AI style, but the better question is, why did you question that minor part of an entire post filled with legitimacy?

And why are you considered about me being a 6 foot SG when I mentioned repeatedly that they force me to be a 6 foot SF???

Because being a 6 foot point guard, and ofcourse shooting guard is out of every reasonable sense. You should blame yourself for being put there.. And ofcourse they are putting you where they can BECAUSE you are just a role player, a filler.. Face it..

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

I got the ability to create my own shoe and when I went to make it and save it it froze, then at times when I got it to not freeze, I equipped the shoe and in the game the shoes are all white...what gives?

can someone help me out?

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

just got 10 fouls in a game before turning off my system...Pretty sure I could have gotten more as there was still 8 minutes left in the 4th quarter.
