True!

Most players have offense as their best or 2nd best category...Even guys like Javale McGee...

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

Yeah, I don't mind farming energy cards. I'm really just saying that farming energy cards combined with the way tiers are calculated make the only viable strategy stocking your bench with commons. I'd prefer that the fix be the way the tiers are calculated and not the way energy cards are farmed. If you change the way energy cards work then people will probably just lean more on the assistant manager boost to refill energy and still stock their benches with commons.

I don't use commons and have won 4 out of the last 5 seasons in legendary tier. I energize as often as i can and rotate/rest my starters/bench. You don't have to use commons to win.

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

Same! I definetely agree with you.
In real life, you need all your team members to win a season, not only your best 5 or 10.

That's as may be but I haven't won a season in a while. I don't know how but for whatever reason I always run into a team with far more legendaries than me. If I have 2 legendarys and 2 epic pros I get crushed by a team with 6 legendarys. This current season I am in there is a team with at least 8 legendarys although I have only 4 and two epic pros, and that is with a common bench. I'm not entirely sure how it's matching us up but it's not like any amount of rotating is going to make me win that matchup.

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

Hello all! I posted this on reddit but there doesn't seem to be a sub there for this game and this was the biggest community i could find. I also tried contacting that NWGameDad on Twitter about this issue - but no reply.

Anyway, my improvement suggestions are based on grinding and automation, I can't do a new thread here about it yet but you can read the gist of it on reddit (I can't post link because I'm new member, just search "Why you shouldn't bother grinding" in the nba2k subreddit)

From what I can tell the top guys are not playing legit and are using automation (see the reddit thread). I myself have successfully been able to setup bluestacks with a mouse recording tool to record my mouse and loop playback so the PC grinds for me. Ridiculous. The quickgame AI is bad (always the best cards are 1-3-5) and you can pretty much win every game if you run a 3-2 lineup (3 of your best cards and 2 commons).

Thoughts?

how can you record the drafting of picks after the game and also when your card catalog is full and need to train stuff away? So even if you can automate the quick game/rc game. you would get stuck with drafting/training.

[Bane]

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

Nope, you just record the mouse 'quiting' bluestacks completely and re-opening it. Your draft picks will be stacked, then you just periodically check in and manually play a game and go through a stack of draft picks in one hit and clear/train your catalog.

were you able to record the quitting bluestacks completely and re-opening the app and waiting for it to connect and click on RC tab and choose +5 games then play it and quit again and start over and everything went without a hitch for at least 5 straight games?

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

I think maybe they should make it easier to get better in this game? Many who play the game alot would probably disagree with me though.

I've played almost same number of games on here as I have WWE Supercard, but in WWE Supercard I'm in legendary tier(the tier after epic) and in NBA I'm only in Ultra Rare. I've even won more percentage of games in NBA than in WWE also. Just feels like where I am now compared to 2 months ago in NBA isn't that diff, though where I am now compared to even a few weeks ago in WWE, seems like a huge difference.

Having more fun in WWE game cause it's easier to get better compared to in NBA one. Not to mention the KOTR mode is only 2 days and has better rewards for the tiers compared to NBAs season mode which lasts twice as long.

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

Can we get a built in tracker for resets? Would that be too hard to code in?

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

One aspect of picking cards off the draft board that needs to be updated is the ability to keep earning season boosts (i.e. off, def, reb, pm, atl boosts) even if all your boosts are full. This results in a wasted pick off the board. Either fix this issue or increase the maximum amount of boosts in the season. Thanks and I hope the right person reads this.

Same needs to happen for WWE game too. If you're maxed out on stamina or boosts, you shouldn't be allowed to earn more. Feels like a huge waste going through an entire draft board, just to get the one boost you are maxed out on.

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

Make the number of max cards dependent on tier ("unlockable"). When you first start out, 100 cards in a good limit. By the time you're in Star tier, you need significantly more. Something like this:

Rare: 100
Super Rare: 120
Ultra Rare: 140
Epic: 160
Legendary: 180
Star: 200

Also, I'd like to be able to "lock" certain cards so that I can't train them. I can't tell you how many times I've almost trained away my common John Wall or uncommon Anthony Davis Rookies.

Re: Suggestions/Feedback

Because you asked (yes, I know you didn't ask), here is my list of minor improvements. Nothing to completely overhaul, just tweaks that can be made to make the game more enjoyable.

General

• Add more tiers of enhancements, especially since they follow card tiers
• Ability to combine 3 Rare enhancements to create one SR enhancement
• Notifications for Daily Bonus
• Capability to replace enhancements
• Allow Daily Bonus to be achieved once per day, not 24 hours in between (similar to "Pick and Win")

Quick Games

• Make Boosts unavailable to be drafted when you are full of them (similar to energy)
• Show a final screen after a Quick Game that lists all cards played and the winners of each quarter

Seasons

• Allow your players to regain stamina during playoffs when your series is done and others are still going on

Rivals Clash

• Daily VC and energy cards should be able to be earned during RC events (why should people who play RC be punished for also playing seasons/2k15?)

Ladder

• Remove rare enhancements from higher levels
• Re-position MJ rewards to be attainable when they are still relevant

My Card List

• Add in a position filter
• Add capability to "select all" to more easily train lower cards
• Increase deck size to at least 120
• Add capability to "lock" certain cards, which would make them unavailable to train (maybe Epic/Legendary/Star could be locked by default and you'd need to unlock them to train them)

Card Catalog

• Create rewards for finishing certain card collections or collecting a certain number of cards (similar to 2k15)

Some good suggestions. I think this app needs to be updated like so:

- No more boosts earning (off, def, reb, etc.) from RC and QG when boosts are full
- Ability to replace enhancement on Pro cards if one wishes to replace a rare with a super rare enhancement
- Combine three of a kind rare enhancement to create a super rare enhancement, with a possibility of introducing even higher tier enhancements
- Ability to earn energy boosts from RC wins for those in the middle of a season
- Players to regain energy after a series sweep in the playoffs

I believe with these minor improvements, the game app will be more enjoyable for all.
