Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread
We are not ignoring you...you are a bit vague in your questions, nevertheless here goes...
2. You cannot practice Free Throws in My Player...yea its a bummer
3. Yes, Red means Fatigue, every time you hit TURBO you are eating into your Stamina. The Blue equals the amount of Stamina your player has. The big "G" is the Gatorade Cup telling you that you are out of gas and need rest (you probably won't get it, so try to avoid shooting at this point)
The "Yellow Blocks" on your ring symbolize your Hot Shooting spots on the Court. The more Yellow blocks you have for a particluar area the better you will shoot there.
1. Whew...
Play Styles: Pass-first means he primarily passes the ball instead of looking for his own opportunities to score. Scoring & 3-pt Specialist are scorers. Athletic is a player with strong physical attributes. Defensive is a player with strong defensive skills.
Positions:
PG- The ball handler that controls the offense.
SG- A ball handling wing player who primarily looks to score points.
SF- A versatile and athletic wing player, he can score from the outside and in the Low Post, runs the floor well, good finisher on the fastbreak (dunk) and good shot blocker because of his athleticism.
PF- Primarily a low post player. Generally considered the Enforcer on the floor, scores in the low post, great rebounder and good shot blocker.
C- Primarily a low post player. Guards the paint, scores primarily in the low post, good passer, great rebounder and shot blocker.
The gameplay; set it on Pro/Simulation, I recommend you Turn the Plays to Auto; Show Plays: Full (Game Mode Settings)
Adding Skill Points & Abilities: Once you have selected the player you want to create...take a moment to look at the top players for that position FROM THE MAIN MENU - ROSTER.
Hit Edit and look at their skill points so you have an idea of where they are strong (number value) so that when you add skill points you are adding them to appropriate areas. For example a Center does not require much attention to his Off-Hand Dribbling!
Signature Moves: Default is just fine, but, while you are looking at skills take a peak at their signature moves. Remember you can change signature moves at anytime during your players' progression.
Plays: Once you have been Drafted. Go to the Main menu, create a temporary Assosication file for that particular team. Once you do that turn on the Practice and you can watch the plays being run so you have an idea of what to expect...PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR POSITION.
Things that will get on your nerves...
"Bumping" and "Suck-in" is a major Hurdle to climb; there are several posts about how to lessen the frustration
Rookie "Ice Skating" its when you lose control of your player...he will run around "out of control"
Ask anything, but be as specific as you can be...
I am probably forgetting something but this should get you to your first 5 questions!
