So guys the slider settings outside of MyCareer have absolutely no effect when you're playing in MyCareer mode. Is that correct?

Correct, unfortunately

Correct, unfortunately

So basically you have barely any control that way. That is lame.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Really odd game just now.. Celtics beat Charlotte 110-82.. I fouled out with 34 seconds left in the THIRD quarter.. somehow with 5 fouls I got through most of the 3rd quarter and then without using the right stick or any buttons my SF jumps at a shooter and fouls him. The game got extremely foul happy all of a sudden in this one.. called 26 fouls on Charlotte and ... 11 on Boston.. including my 6.. Celtics shoot 26 of 35 from the free throw line.. I was asking in here why KG never got to the foul line a while back and this time he was 5 of 7.. but in 3 quarters I was 12 of 13 on the line. The game wasn't a 110-82 game until I fouled out.. Charlotte only put up 13 points in the 4th quarter that I simmed through since I fouled out. Almost felt like a real rookie with the number of whistles but 20 pts 16 boards was a bit better than that

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Hmm, that's my worry, wish I could turn off autosave.

Well go pick 3 teams that you would like to play for

I had a maxed out SG that i deleted because it messed up the rosters completely because of them not trading me to teams that were interested in me and i wanted to play for.

D Rose was on OKC
Westbrook with Nets
D-Will and Brooks with Cavs
John Wall and Beal with the Bulls

Hated seeing that so ill start over and if i request a trade it'll be only one time.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Had a great game in a loss. I had 16pts, 22 rebs, and 3 blocks. It seems like I cant get 20 pts. We blew out 12pt lead against Wolves. I had 7 TOs.

I got Hustle and Vertical to 90. I am seeing my rebounding increase because of it, without even boosting Off/Def Rebound. I got block to 82, I will stop at 85. I will then get Hands to 80. I will then finally work on offense.

It seems like we cant win a game. I know what our weakness it. It is Austin Rivers. He misses and takes alot of shots. I just asked coach to reduce his minutes. We also need a defensive SF that can shoot 3's. Anderson is a liability on defense. We have the worst record. I wasnt to ask for trade suggestions, but we do need a change. As long as we dont trade Davis or Gordon, everyone is replaceable. I asked for Wilson Chandler and Eric Maynor. I would either one of them as long as we dont trade our 1st rd pick.

I avg 12pts, 11.2 rebs(3rd in league), 1.4 blocks, and 54%. We are 6-19. I havent noticed or been phased by all of our losses because I have been focused on building my player. Since I am close to fulfilling rookie goal, I am more comfortable only playing key games now. Even though I have yet to touch Off/Def Rebound, I am having zero problem rebounding. I think I have had 10+ rebs in every game since I became I starter. What really is helping me is Hustle, Vertical, and Scrapper(Lvl2).

We traded 2014's 1st rd pick(next years) for Wilson Chandler and their 2014 1st rd pick. I am anxious to see how he fits with our team. I am just glad we didnt trade away this year 1st pick, since it will most likely be the 1st or 2nd overall pick. Davis got injured, but I like Anderson off the bench. I still hope we get Maynor without trading away this year's 1st. That would really improve our team. We would be a defensive team. Having Maynor as starter would allow Gordon to take more of a scoring responsiblity, since Rivers is selfish. Maynor would provide passing and defense. If we get Maynor and keep our 1st, that would allow us to go best available since we wont have any distinct weakness and we wont have a starter over 26. I would like us to go for a scoring wing that can come off the bench and spell Gordon.

Since I play Hornets, they dont have many rivals. So, I would only play stars. Since I am starting at Center(PF/C), I will only play start Centers and there arent that many. Even though I am only 67 OVR, I am okay with going to my 2nd season as long as I start boosting offense. My main goal was to worry about Blocking and Rebounding and I did, without having to boost Off/Def Rebound. Besides getting Shot Inside to 80 and Shot Close to 75(just boosting them because they are close to those #s), the main 2 offensive ratings I will worry about this season(if I get to it) is Shoot in Traffic and Shot Hook.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Made a slashing SF went to the Pistons ill ask for a trade after 5 games this team has way too many forwards

Should i try out Sim? default score is way too high and the low FT attempts is just unrealistic

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Just an idea for anyone who plays 2K cam...

I always played this cam, but I just tried some different ones out for a change. Try Player Lock. It's brilliant. It's the best cam to get the right angles for passes, shots, steals etc. So much more dynamic. I find it makes everything easier.

You will get high scores no matter what unless you reduce the quarter length. I find 10 min quarters on sim/superstar to be SOMEWHAT reasonable. My team still averges about 110 but I can't go any lower or my rebounds will suffer.

The best overall position in the game IMO is the power forward. I am always going against smaller people when I am put at center I just bring my guy out to the three point line then dive by and score/dish. Get Bruiser skill maxed out ASAP. Nobody wants to guard/be guarded by me. Anthony, Love, James....does not matter. They are all sucking air at the end of the game. I DARE them to shoot. Sometimes they can't even hit the backboard! I saved up for lockdown defender so it is only worse now! Then the other team doubles me on the block because I am killing them. I just pass it out too Iggy...oh wait...they traded him away so I have Miller who can't hit the backboard. *rolls eyes*. They won't trade Gallanari even though I tell them after each game he has to go yet there he is throwing up clunkers.

Play on Denver which WAS great until they traded Isgougia (sp?). Now we have slow/short Miller starting. What a dumb move! It is him or a 59 stat rookie guard....brutal.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

The trade deadline came and went and I'm still stuck with Sessions. They have supposedly been trying to trade him all season. No teams made a trade before the deadline, even though there were about 25-30 players on the trading block.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Lost against the Bulls(again) 104-97. In 3 games against the Bulls this season I averaged 31 ppg, 10.7 rpg, 12.7 apg and 1.3 bpg yet, we still lost the season series 1-2. Ben Gordon and I are the only ones that play consistently well against them everybody else plays like crap.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Made it to the NBA Finals with the Pacers in my 4th season as my 3pt Specialist PG. I got my first shoe before the playoffs as well, made them pink because I was wearing the breast cancer shoes for my entire career. I look like a moron, but anything for the ladies! HaHa.

I've noticed the game has gotten a little more difficult after the patch. I'm seeing more fouls and more blocked shots, which is great to see.

Back to the Finals: we're tied 1 game apiece with the OKC Thunder after we rolled everyone previously in the playoffs. Closest series was 3-1 against the 76ers in the Conference Finals.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Man, I spend WAY too much of the 2nd half playing with the fatigue meter at halfway or less. The game is hardwired to give me my allotted minutes, with no regard for fatigue or that they're starting at PG in some games, having me play center and PF and I'm getting slammed just as hard for not being able to keep Anthony Davis off the glass.
