Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

Okay, I calmed down a bit and replayed my game against Boston. Apparently, it didn't save... Whatever. It was close all game again but we finally pulled it out because I made it a point to keep feeding Kobe down the stretch. He finished with 22 on 7/12 from the field. I had 28 with 14 assists and 6 steals. I shot like 11/20 and felt like I was still only shooting good shots. I ended the game and earned 944 vc and had 300 before the game. Get back to the main menu and it shows my achievements and I only got 200 vc so I have 500 now.

What a complete rip off! Lol...

Question tho... As a pg, as a SG, I can never get my star players to play like themselves. My issues with Dirk are well chronicled but I've played with Paul George. I've paid with melo. I've played with rondo. No one ever plays even halfway to their real life counterparts. What am I doing wrong? I run plays. I pass when they tell me to. I have dimer and flashy passer. How do I just get players to play like themselves?

Derrick Rose just hung 42 on me. Next game is Miami. I think I'll wait till tomorrow to play that one. Lol

I figured out a glitch to slow him down tho and almost brought us back in the 4th. When he came up court I called for a double team and let CPU guard him and I just switched to whoever was open. It worked until I got in foul trouble (tends to happen against good teams cuz I'm reaching trying to bring us back) and got a bs call when Noah set a pick on me and I pushed him over. Got Kobe some good looks but man... I wish Kobe would just take over like he would if he was healthy. I ran 3 plays in a row for him and he passed it back to me like he wanted me to shoot but I had just switched closer out for one man fast break cuz I hate that centers can keep up with me with maxed out speed.

Just picked this up, and I'm looking to create a SF in the mold of AK47. Just looking for some input on how to do this.

Thanks.

I have found with fast guards like Rose, Parker, Westbrook, and Lawson don't use intensity defense. I been trying that because Westbrook was abusing me. If you square up he will blow by you and you'll be to slow to meet at the rim. Try it one game let me know how it works for you.

Game 5 Westbrook dropped 42 I couldn't stop him in Houston using lockdown defender. I said screw it why use lockdown if he is dropping 30+. Changed to acrobat/finisher and didn't use intense defense kept him in front of me.

Held him to 3 of 14 from the field 11 points on OKC home floor.

Try it out let me know how it works for you.

missin wide open shots like crazy.

did they patch the gameplay or something?

Might need to change your jump shot. I've gone through probably 4 or 5 before I found one that works consistently. Some of the combinations don't seem to work too well together. The one I use now I think is release 27 and jump shot 2, I feel pretty confident every time I rise up with it. The few I had before I never knew what to expect, a wide open perfect release could have easily been an air ball.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

It's not so much about release as it is the random number generator that calculates the probability of the shot. Most of the time it's having to do with the flow of the game. Has your team been on a run, do you really need this bucket? I've found with perfect release a lot of them miss because of the other factors I mentioned.

Into my third season, I finally started upgrading my player regularly, and when I got to 90 i got the chance to make my own signature shoe. Once I had gotten enough VC, I bought and equipped it and but they are still not showing up in game. I have a feeling that It's because they don't colour match with the team, but that is pretty stupid if true.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

Here's some things I hope they finally decide to put in 2k15:

Move back to SP, make me have to go through the rookie grind instead of just buying VC.

SLIDERS, I know some people wwill use them to makettheir player a monster, but I'm sure a lot would use them to make the game more realistic

Make the all-star game FEEL like the All-Star game, take the teammate grade, dynamic goals, EVERYTHING out of this one game.

Smarter teammates, seriously, this is the NBA right? They known what is and isn't smart.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

I don't have any complaints on the game play or the vc. I wish next year they implement a simple simulate next game. I don't play every single game. I am sure most do not play every game. Instead of play next key game. Just have it to where you can play ANY game you want to.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

Been really trying to work with an All Around SF, but man is it hard when you can't run the offense. This is the first 2k I've had since 11, the controls are still a work in progress. I'm able to score (13 PPG, but haven't scored less then 16 in 6 games now) but I'm shooting a pretty low percentage, as well as averaging only 1 assist and 2 boards.

My biggest problem by far is attempting to drive, only to have my player pull up. My mid range game is atrocious, and my timing still isn't great so it ends in alot of missed shots.

Not to mention my team (76ers) are just terrible. Started 2-0, have now dropped 9 straight. Richardson is a black hole, and Thad Young is abused down low. Wish I could get them to play Nerlens more.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

my career update:


half way through the season finally(41 games):


Record: 36-5 (won 17 straight)


GP: 41 GS: 36 MPG: 36.8 PPG: 33.4 ORB: 2.0


RPG: 8.0 APG: 9.2 TOP: 2.7 SPG:6.0 BPG: 2.0


FG%: 55.4% 3P%: 50.5 FT%: 85.7


Only frustrating thing with this team is that Kevin Durant is way too passive, won't shoot the ball under any circumstances and is averaging about 17ppg. I like playing with Westbrook who is aggressive and will to pass and shoot.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

35 points at the end of the 3rd and a 12 point lead on the warriors and the screen goes black.

I hate 2k.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

Does anybody know if Dimer Level 3 is really glitched. I have Dead Eye and Finisher at 3 but they don't seem glitched. Dimer at 3 doesn't seem to light up a lot more now compared to when it was 2 and that kind of worries me. Is it glitched in this year?
