Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #4: MyCareer

now i all need is an association insight to complete my hype cycle

Yes I hope this is the next insight!

This year you nailed it 2K, I love that all of the activities in the mode are integrated together, but … and as usual there is always a but,
what looks missing is the physical improvements, what I mean, no additions of new haircuts, new tattoos, new skin & muscle textures, I just don’t want to be on the 3rd year of my career with 2 team mates that have almost 99% of my features.

And I am also wondering if there is trades on the draft night, if 2K don’t give us the chance to be drafted to our favorite team then at least give us a chance to be traded to them on the draft night, like what happened with Kobe, I don’t want to wear a jersey for a team that I don’t like.

We never had the chance to use all the teams jerseys, also I felt last year the mode lacked to pass or it prevented the access to know what is happening in the league except the home page, if I want to ask for a tread I should access other teams to know who is in the roaster and to see if this suits me or not, also to have the chance to edit your team mates, not physically or their ratings but to change their gear.

One last thing is the simulation to reach the next game, why we couldn’t simulate the day as we can in the association mode???

I know that you want it to reflect the real life example but at the end I am a FAN of 1 team & simply I want to enjoy a video game.

I don't think I can get into MyPlayer if there aren't any sliders


Without them it's just way too easy to become great

Sorry, if this has been mentioned anywhere already, but have they said anything on this topic?

Not yet. It would probably have a lot of overlap with what has been talked about already so it might not even be needed.

I usually don't play My Player but it seems like it has improved tremendously. I will definitely try it this year.

Agreed, maybe this is the year I finally finish one of the my player careers I start.

I just limit my players ratings, if a skill starts making the game to easy or unrealistic just buy back those attribute points to keep yourself in check. So in that respect you do have all the necessary sliders for yourself.

My problem is I need sliders for my teammates and the CPU!! I just have to quit this mode every year because there is no custom sliders to get the AI to shoot realistic % and to play a realistic brand of NBA ball. please 2k, tweet that sliders are in this year! you're the only career mode in sports game history that doesnt have sliders....think about it....

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #4: MyCareer

Idk about the career mode this year. For one it's too easy for your player to progress and become a star. You can easily get 45-60 ppg and that's just not realistic or NBA basketball. I hope they fix the AI teammates this year. In the video they said the AI will recognize our game more. But will they play good?? Can they make shots, rebound, defend?? They need sliders like Madden has for the superstar mode. So you can change sliders for your teammates and the opposing AI. If I play with LBJ I want him to attack the basket not stand around on the perimeter and make dumb passes. If I play with Kobe I want him to take shots and penetrate inside. And if I play with Dwight Howard he shouldn't be shooting jump shots like Garnett or Nowitzki. He should be getting dunks and shots inside.

Also it was ridiculous how last year there were so many glitches in the mode. And these glitches should have been easily done away with before the game released. The game freezes if you win the NBA Finals, minutes glitch after the all star game, draft order glitch where it goes by alphabetical order, ridiculous trades and too many, unbalanced number of positions on each team, AI teammates were bad, etc. I'm not gonna get hyped this year. I will believe when I see it.

Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #4: MyCareer

Three things I still I want to know about is:
1. if we can sim any game or is it still like last year. I think I can get deep into a career if I can skip any game. I usually only play key games because I usually have 3-4 careers going at once.
2. I see how Coach Feedback would impact playing time. Is Playing Time based on Coach Feedback or like last year? I like the Coach Feedback. I didnt like last year where regardless of how you played, you would still gain minutes.
3. (also for Association)- Is Progression still the same as last year where it is potential based? I rather it be Production-based. If it is the same, I have to make sure players are edited before I start.
