Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I hope they fix injuries next because right now I'm in April and there is not a single injury in the entire league... I want realism man!

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Any tips for getting the playvision to remain on show plays? It always resets to off for me after every game...

If on Console: Make sure your patching is up to date. Then make sure your "Run Plays" setting is turned to on. Then make sure that you turn playvision settings on before you enter a game. Turning it on during a game doesn't make it permanent even if you tell it to save. If you did all this and it still is not working, idk.

If on PC: Lefto's "Workaround" tool will allow you to turn this on, but for it to work you have to have this workaround running before you start your 2k13. Once you run the workaround you can set your settings as described above and it will stick properly.

As an aside: I have never had a camera issue on the pc myself.

I'm playing as a 6'8 220lbs SG/SF for the Hornets. After my rookie season, I averaged.. 22.3ppg, 6.8rpg, 6.0apg, 2.4spg, and 1bpg.

For my second year, playing my 19th game as I type, I just about have the same stats now.

At the All-Star Break of my rookie year as the PG of the Hornets

Averaging
19.7 PPG
10.0 APG

At the break our record is 18-22, we've been winning as of late because we were 11-21.. I broke the Hornets assist record with 29 Assists, 1 shy of tying the NBA record.. Broke the Rising Stars Assist Record with 26 Assists, to go along with 21 Points on 7-9 from 3..

Frustrating part of the season is I'm not shooting well, terrible from the field at 41%, not too bad from 3 at 39% and 92.2% from the Line..

Our current starting lineup is:
PG: Me
SG: Eric Gordon
SF: Ryan Anderson
PF: Anthony Davis
C: Carlos Boozer

I've had them trade to get Boozer and Redick.. Both trades have helped..
Anthony Davis has only played 17 games because he's ALWAYS hurt

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

How do people have fun playing MyCareer scoring 50 PPG? I'm mainly an Association player, but I do have a 6'9" PF that I play on occasionally. He averages like 7 PPG and 8 rebounds, but he plays great defense and makes great plays which I find way more fun than making every three I take.

Yeah, glad that I made a power forward too.
I only focus on getting rebounds and hitting open shots inside or via p&r.

When I have played a point guard I couldn't have fun because I simply can't resist shooting the ball too much or having too many assists every time I play.

I raised my overall from 77 to 80 for my third season because I couldn't bear the fact that Jordan Crawford had a higher overall than me :P My athletic SF focussed on shooting this off-season taking care of his free throw problems and raising his mid-range and 3pt to 85 and 65 respectively.
My Spurs remained the same with no new additions, the major signings were Melo going to Orlando (joining the number one pick this year who is a PG with an astonishing 65 for overall) and a boatload of players signing with the Lakers including Chris Bosh.
Gonna key game this season so I can go into free agency and go to a team where I can be the star of the team, even though TP, Manu and Timmy are getting up there in age I won't be the focus over Dwight Howard.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Is it just me, or does it seem like the same few teams try and draft you now. Like when I first started my career in December just about every team interviewed me. But I tried to make another player and only Milwaukee Houston and philly interviewed me. I tried making other my player accounts and the same few teams keep interviewing me.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

Man, what can i say about our Knicks squad. We are killing it. Melo leading the league in fg% at some outrageous mid 60s number, not complaining, my 6'1 PG leading in ppg. Saw some previous posts about Shump unable to hit open shots and not being able to drive; not the case here. If i drive drawing his man, kick it to him on the wing hes almosyt automatic. We are 23-9 now, 3rd place in the conference behind Philly at number 2 with a 24-8 record, and Miami with a 25-7 record. ****ing Miami, cant wait to see them in the ConfFinals.

Cant say i have the same excitement about my 7'1 rebounding center though. Our bobcats are atrocious. And even though i have boht off n def rebounding maxed out, my guy cant grab anything. Whenever i think i have a good read on a reb, it seems Like the jump is delayed when i hit triangle; and if it isnt delayed, my guy is getting beat out for the rebs by guys a foot smaller than him. What attributes should i increase to be grabing more rebs??

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

You don't have fun. I've stopped playing MP because I reached 99 overall and it was too easy.

That's why you stop upgrading your guy. My guy is at 86 overall and I've stopped upgrading him. If I upgrade him more especially the shooting then it would be too easy. You just have to keep your attributes down.

Are you getting the same teammate grade and stats in the rookie showcase?? Because if you keep playing at the same level at the rookie showcase then the same teams will keep drafting you. Try to play a little better or a little worse then other teams will draft you. Maybe tank it if you want other teams to get you.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

32-14 with the Kings right now. We 2nd in the west. I'm 3rd in MVP voting and Cousins is 2nd.
Freddette 14 ppg
Evans 16 5 5
Me 18 6 9
Robinson 19 and 11
Cousins 22 and 11
Thornton 13

We have a good balanced team.

Re: Official NBA 2K13 MyCareer thread

I just bought the Dimer skill. It doesn't always seem to work. You can tell when it is, because I keep that little HUD thing on the top left corner on, and it only lights up sometimes when I make a pass. When reading the description it says as long as you aren't in the post it will work. Sometimes, even when I am outside the three point line, it doesn't work even if my guy makes the shot and I get the assist. So I bought Post Playmaker. Now does that only work when you're posted up, or just in the high or low post?

I had a double double with my pf and sf accounts in the showcase, and i kept getting drafted to houston rockets on both accounts. on my pg account(which was my first) I got drafted to okc. but i will take your advice and play around with my performance to see if that makes a difference.

On a side note. Is anyone tired of this screwy game cheating for the computer, I just lost game 1 of the finals to a kyrie irvingless cavaliers by 20pts. In the 1st quarter we were up by 10 and had an almost double digit lead in rebounding on the cavs. then early in the second quarter the coach benched me, when i came back we were down by 13 and the lead kept growing. The computer kept making shots no matter how contested, my team wouldn't box out, and everytime i tried to go box out one guy, he'd just kick it to a guy on the perimeter and they'd make a three. Whats most irritating was everytime i came within 5pts the cavs would all of a sudden go on a run and open another 20pt lead, and while they were on this run my teammates would always do something to screw up our possession. Another thing is, my team would grab a rebound then all of a sudden the ball would just go to the other teams hands, even the announcers would acknowledge that we had the board, but the ball would just keep reappearing into the other teams hands WTF??? And then the cavs offense awareness was for some reason way higher than ours when in the first quarter it was lower than ours. this isn't the first time this has happened either, but i get annoyed at the fact that when the computer wants to win, it wins no matter how hard i try to come up. Does this happen to anyone else?

That same mess happens to me, and i have all my rebounding and vertical maxed out. You may though wan't to try upgrading your vertical and see if that helps.

Scrapper skill helps a lot on "rebounding" 50-50 situations. Also get your hands attribute high and hustle also helps.
