    Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

    Guys, I read that we can change sliders in this years game in My Player. But where do you do it? I can't find the option...

      Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

      I did another showcase and ended up going #7 to the Kings (also interviewed with the Bucks and Pistons). I'm really happy because I fill a position of need (6'9" SF) and get to grow with Cousins and Evans. I think this is the save I'll play going forward. Also, the highest I've been drafted.

      For those who are wondering, playcalling is NOT broken and works great. It's not realistic for a rookie in the low 60's to drop 40-10-5 regularly and dominate the game. Something like 15-4-2 is a good game for me off the bench at a 62 rating. Most plays go through Evans or into the post. People want sim but complain when they have to set a screen for a star and don't get to take every shot. SMH.

      However, those who want to dominate, and have every play ran through them, I'm sure turning playcalling off works wonders. For those who like playcalling, but still like to pick and choose their spots, LB/L1 once again works to call a "quick screen" which cancels the play, and you can then call for the ball. Personally though, I like playing to my skill level for once. In 2k11 I averaged a triple double for the season. It's much better this year, and I'm not looking for workarounds to dominate.

Dont ask for a trade just yet keep gutting it out brother!
        I plan on staying. It is different than last year, though. We will have a high draft pick. Hopefully we pick up a Center. Houston has me running Point at times. That is really the only time I can do something on the court. Since I dont have a 3pt shot yet and since it is expensive, I will work on my post game. It is very cheap and useful

            I agree.
            I like Playcalling. With K-Mart, I know he will get most of the touches. But, I know once I get better, I will get more touches. Alot of there plays have me as options, so once I get my Teammate grade up, they will pass to me.
            I like it this way. Last year, I was already avging a double-double. This year, because of low vertical, Im not

              Not sure if anyone has really paid attention or if it has already been said but in the my player draft all the created rookies that get drafted are the same weight and height as the actual rookies. So I'm assuming whenever the lockout is over and they put the rookies in the game, they will be the ones drafted and playing in the rookie showcase

                My playstyle is All-Around, only because last year, the caps were best for All-Around, and you could be good at everything. I don't even know if there are attribute caps this year. Anyone know??

                Kevin Durant
                6'9" 230 lbs.
                All-Round SF/SG
                Play 1: Mid-Range
                Play 2: Isolation
                Play 3: P&R Ball Handler
                Play 4: 3PT

                LeBron James
                6'8" 250 lbs.
                All-Around SF/PF
                Play 1: P&R Ball Handler
                Play 2: Isolation
                Play 3: Post Up Low
                Play 4: Mid Range

                So either way, you're going to want to make your guy all-around if you are modeling him after either guy. I'm of the Durant mold being tall (6'9") and skinny (227 lbs.). I got my dunking up to 50 so I can jam and am now working on my mid-range so I can create mismatches and shoot over shorter defenders like KD. My plays are similar to LeBron though. I have the same four, just 3 and 4 are switched.

                  I think you're totally missing the Playcalling complaints. At least for me (and a few others that have spoken up) the problem with playcalling is our inability to run around the court without getting suctioned into defenders.

                  I play as a SG, and when the play calls for me to cut across the paint or along the baseline, any defender I run near I automatically try to post them up. It takes 2 or 3 seconds to disengage, and then I get sucked back into them.

                  By the time I get across the court, the play is broken, shot clock is dwindling and the possession is ruined.

                  As far as "not wanting a sim" "wanting to score 40 points as a rookie" "wanting to take every shot" that's couldn't be further from the truth.

                  With playcalling on, I got maybe 4 looks per game. With it off (my one game last night) I took 9 shots. I scored 13 points - again, career high. I'm more than happy with that.

                    I don't mind that. Last year the AI run 3 plays all the time and the whole mode was broken because the teammates were also stupid.

                    Does the AI run more than 3 plays this year? Does it recognize when we are having a good game to give us more plays?

                    Because if it doesn't, then it's one more year of broken mess.

                        MJBIRD123 Player:

                        Name: Dwight George

                        Position: SG
                        Height: 6'6
                        Weight: 199
                        College: Southern Utah
                        #: 34
                        Birthday: March 10
                        ope it es throuo
                        He is a scoring shooting guard In the rookie showcase Dwight after the 1st quarter had 7 points and 1 assist. He is really proving himself so far let's he continues that throughout the game.

                        Quarter2: Struggled a bit in the 2nd so far on defense allowed his man to get some passes in the paint which lead to 2 buckets. made a bad pass to commit a turnover. 3/4 of the way through the quarter George is struggling on offense to just 1-4 so far in the 2nd hope that inproves before end of the quarter. He now just faked out his man but missed the layup. Just commited another turnover now sitting the remander of the 2nd. He played SF all through the 2nd. He needs to pick up the pace in the 2nd half.

                        3rd quarter: Just drove to the hoop for the layup. Got put back at SG. Missed next 3 shots then got put on the bench and subbed back in with 2-46 leftin the 3rd. First shot off the bench in from the top of the key.Misseed an inside fade and jumper.Played some good defense in the post forcing the miss. End of the 3rd had 4 points, and a rebound in the 3rd.

                        4th Quarter: Bam hits the 1st shot in the 4th. played a few min in the 4th then sat the rest Here are my game stats: 17pts. 2reb. 1assist 21min. 8-20 from feild.

                        Pre Draft Interveiws: 1st on with the Pacers I said a IU would love to play with them. Im a SG so I would get playing time Hope I would get drafted to them. Next upHouston Dont want to play with them. 76ers would play with them but not extemly happy. wont get playing time with iggy and turner.

                        Woooooooo got drafted to the Pacers. Hope to start games later.

                          man the other team don't miss, don't matter who the player is and everyone is lights out for three. If anyone on the other team is a little open, it almost automatic points. And let me get started with ray allen for some reason he is jordan,miller,bird all in one

                            I just had a pretty awesome game against the Lakers

                            12 pts (6-18), 8 reb, 6 ast, 2 stl, 2 blk, 2 to, A- grade.

                            I was jacking up good shots, they just weren't falling. Luckily I was able to contribute in other ways. We shut down Kobe (made 12 of 32... such a chucker) and won 99-101. We're 2-2 on the season.

                                I have a question since a lot of people are having various complaints about the gameplay in my player. If I start a My Player now and a gameplay patch comes out in November like usual, will the gameplay differences affect a My Player that is already started? or would I have to start a new one?
