There are those who have become so disillusioned with the prevalence of microtransactions within the NBA...

1) Career leaderboards that work and are not glitched.






2) Everything else.


In all seriousness, they need to iron out the glitches before anything else matters. After that, they need to make sponsorships more realistic and increase the number of licensed items you can unlock.

I honestly don't know how a Clubhouse as described here fits into a MyCareer mode...isn't that more of an online play thing? I don't play too much NBA 2K, but the way it's being detailed in the article makes it sounds like a hub for getting in multiplayer matches.

I could see a storyline mode thing working, but those are really hit or miss. Some can be fun, while others just end up being to cliched and cheesy. And the emotes thing sounds like something straight out of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003-07. Heck, Rory McIlroy PGA Tour had to add a patch in to REMOVE the over the top emotions from the game!

I'd say the Majors, but we know they can't do that. So just keep getting more real-life events, too. And allow more customization of the career mode schedule (knowing, of course, this is more a limitation of the PGA Tour license than anything else).

Ea is going to be the way to go for golf games next year

Dumb list.

Honestly, Unless EA totally messes up, who is going to want to play 2K career when you can play EA with all majors and playoffs? 2K is really against the wall.

NGL, I kinda hope 2K just waives the "Career Mode white flag" and commits to the multiplayer side of the game. Maybe bring in TGCTours.

Re: PGA Tour 2K22 MyCareer Wishlist

My biggest wish would be for a field of AI players whose scores were determined, hole-by-hole/stroke-by-stroke, by attribute based computer AI models of the said players in real time. Furthermore, if I wanted to play a round alongside of any of the AI players, I could at least play along with their avatar (or their generic avatar if they weren't a "featured/licensed" pro) as we played our respective round.

I think this would give career mode an entirely new dimension and give the field some elements of life. I just feel like I'm playing against a clinical spreadsheet in career modes now. PGA Championship Golf 2000 by Sierra had configurable, attribute based AI players like this and it made for a much more dynamic career mode. Its only weakness was that sometimes when you played along with AI players, they'd encounter a shot decision that they had insufficient AI to make a rational choice. For example, they'd tried to make an impossible carry over a hazard, rather than taking a drop in a safe area. It happened often enough to where it was annoying, but when it didn't happen it was really good. This type for problem could be overcome with a little more development.

They wouldn't do that unless they truly make the game cross-play compatible. As it is now, for some reason, Xbox users are at a disadvantage when looking at how low players on PS especially can score comparatively.

Also, the issue is that the PGA Tour license is a major reason this game sold anywhere near as many copies as it did. The TGC games before it, even 2019 which had a small amount of PGA Tour branding, didn't get anywhere near 2.5 million copies. Slap "PGA Tour" and "2K" on it, and boom - sales went thru the roof.

I want to see them let you create your own schedule with your created courses or others. Name the events also.

They had this in The Golf Club series up thru TGC 2019...it was called Solo Society. You could set your own schedule, name your events, use whatever courses you wanted for the events, adjust AI, even name the AI players and select their nationality, etc.

This seemingly had to be removed when they went all-in on the PGA Tour license.

100% agree. A career mode where each round of golf matches you with a different AI player would be great. I dream with a game of golf like this.

Agreed on all counts. The way the difficulty is set up now, it's basically just setting a different number for the cut-line and the win-line. The fact that on 'moderate' the CPU players will always shoot 5-6 under a day (regardless of conditions, pin placements, etc) just means all you're doing is setting the cut-line at ~+1-2 and the "win" number at -21 or so. Those numbers just move up or down by a few strokes depending on the difficulty level you set.

I don't have a ton of good ideas about how to address this, but it does make it seem less immersive when you know from the second you step on the 1st tee in Round 1 what you have to shoot to win at the end of Round 4. It's like the difference between time trial racing and wheel-to-wheel racing in motorsports. Totally different situations (almost different sports).
