NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

Don't get me wrong....this is the best sports game I have played....however...

I love how the game flows but you quickly see the pattern. Every game I have played we get up by 12- 15. I start laughing and my wife ask why. I said "the game is about to make my team turn the ball over, get blocked, play horrific defense and not make wide open shots all the while they will bury several 3pt shots". Sure enough, like a broken record...the other team magically comes back. One time the computer wanted it close. They hit 10 consecutive shots and scored 47 points in the QUARTER.

I love MoST of the game....I just really REALLY hate having the game scripted so that playing good or bad does not matter much as the game WILL be close the last 4 minutes.

Rebounding...is just so frustrating still and makes playing the big guy so much less fun. Yes, I will lead the league in rebounding when I am averaging 36 min/game. It is just annoying when it again is scripted that you won't get a rebound. It either bounces away from you like a hot potato or manages to bounce just over you head. Just frustrating bs.

I love to make a block...it is improved so much....but when the computer won't let me jump...I get pissed. It has decided you won't block the shot. So, your guy goes into slow motion so that the shooter has more time to get the shot off.

I swear...the things I want to work the best in the game....don't. Not sure if it is possible to make it so on the code side

Decided I didn't want to demand a trade in my first year. So started playing key games only after going 12-0 with the Thunder. There were like 6 key games on the calendar before I started doing that, now there are three or four a month.

Currently sitting at 34-18. Spurs are the only team in the west with a better record so far (35-16). Heat leading the East with a 38-15 record. Now that I started simming, I've fallen to fourth in contention for rookie of the year. Stat lines dropped from 14.5 ppg, 8.9 reb and 3.8 blks to 10.1 ppg, 7.2 reb and 2.3 blks.

The Rockets have our number this year. Played them twice three times already and lost all three. All close games, losing by a total of 7 points in all three.

Also forgot to mention there has been stupid trades around the league. I don't remember specifics, I'll get them later and post them. But the one that make me shake my head was Clay Thompson being traded to the Blazers for two bench players and a draft pick.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

On the third try i finally got drafted by the Magic . An athletic 6ft 3 PG, finished the showcase with about 32 points, 10-11 assists, 1 rebound, 3-4 steals, 4 turnovers and 4 fouls.

Playing on the all-star level atm with 8 minute quarters.

Lol, so you want to be a do everything PG? Those two really don't have the same playstyles. Unless that's what you're aiming for, in that case...get buckets. :P

When I create a PG, I usually go with athletic; You'll be able to dunk right out of the gate. Plus, the two stat categories that take the most VC are nearly maxed in speed and quickness, which both Rondo and Irving are known for.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

It's good that we're finally able to start in the all-star game but they had the positions all wrong.

Im on the Timberwolves so the starting 5 for the West was Kobe, Westbrook, Durant, Howard and me.

I was expecting Durant to play the 4 while I play the 3 but boy was I wrong lol.

PG - Kobe
SG - Westbrook
SF - Durant
PF - Howard
C - Me (6'8 SF)



Eastern starting 5

PG - Wade
SG - Rondo
SF - Lebron
PF - Melo
C - Josh Smith

at least their lineup could somewhat make sense(i don't know how Josh Smith could past other centers in the east in starting lineup and Rondo being at the 2 is stupid.)

That lineup makes no sense haha. You've put in effort to already be in the all-star game.

Got drafted #1 in the draft. My stat line for the example game: 29 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, one block, one turnover and two fouls, shooting 50%. Teammate rating A. Didn't even play very well but once you figure out how the AI plays this year it's pretty straight forward.

I put up a guide on how to do so on my channel.

i'll check it out, normally I wait till I max out my SF before I start working on another MyPlayer.

What do you plan on doing with next-gen? Personally I might skip advancing my career on current gen and wait to get my PS4 copy.

If I do get next-gen by the end of the year i'll just stop doing it for current gen and continue on next-gen(if they let us continue from current to next) if I don't get a next gen until 2k15 i'll just keep playing my current gen career.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

And what's up with the all-star voting? It's supposed to be G's, F's & C's I believe, and they have 'back court' and 'front court'.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

If you are going to for sure 100% be buying it on next gen, I would say wait for that version. Its only 6 weeks away.

This is my plan as well...but everytime there's that itch of pulling my wallet and just buy this CG 2k14.

Anyhow...just want to ask you guys something. I am planning to create mycareer as sg/sf player with higher an average 3pt specialist, good passing and decent penetration/drive to the basket

1. What style should I choose? (offensive, 3pt, all-around?)

2. What is a good height for this position? (between 6"6-6"8)

3. Which team is the best to go to for this position?

Cant wait to have this game in PS4

Might have something to do with the changes to the all-star voting format. No votes for centers anymore, just forwards, and the game doesn't know how to organize the roster.

Re: NBA 2K14 Official MyCAREER Thread

yeah I have the Athletic one-handers off one package. I'm really just hoping someone can tell me exactly what I need to dunk alleys or I might just give up on mycareer/crew/blacktop. i'm tired of dealing with this same issue year after year.

How many dunk packages do you have equipped? If it's only the Athletic one-handers and that's it, try filling up the rest of the slots with the rest of the packages you have available. Fill up as many slots as you possibly can, even use the Basic packages. Last year that usually did the trick for people having issues with not dunking.

EDIT: Now that I read your post again, I noticed you didn't say anything about equipping the dunk packages and you just said you had one. Make sure that after you bought a dunk package, you went and equipped it.
