I knew something was wrong cause I'm typically an expert on rosters & my mycareer player ratings wasn't looking like he was a 95 overall so I tested it myself & found out the TRUTH!!!!!!! 2k bamboozled the people yet again & IF YOU BOUGHT VC you should be pissed cause you bought VC to max out at about a 70 overall before you get all the practice upgrades..... IF YOU THINK IM LYING DO THIS YOURSELF & come back here & tell me your REAL rating..... I really hope this threat picks up enough steam that the word about this gets back to 2k somehow & they have to explain what's going on here smh

It's been like this since last year, I've lost count how many times I've said it. About time someone other than me noticed.

You all thought some of us were joking when we said we were creating glorified role players? And I distinctly remember telling folks last year that going into Pro Am showed us our real rating, before 2k patched it in order to hide us behind our MC rating.

The reason I think they didn't show us our true rating is because they KNEW people wouldn't buy VC if they knew they players would max out around 80...... Just think we invested over 150k (maybe way more) VC into a guy that's only around a 80 overall

My point is that you are competing against other "myplayers" who are created on the same scale. So you may only be a 79 overall as a 95, but all the other "95"s are only 79 overall as well so you are still the cream of the crop.

Edit: I am, of course, referring to online play here. I don't think it matters in terms of MyCareer mode as most can still win the title on HOF anyway, and making us rated any higher would make HOF play like PRO.

I grinded for my VC as well but I don't think this is something to just gloss over WHAT ELSE can 2k be trying to hide if they pulling something like this is the bigger issue moving forward

This isn't some conspiracy man. Want an answer? Go ask a dev about it on twitter or something. Come back and tell us what's up.

What about if u strictly play my career tho not everyone plays park..... so in your my career you are getting the ILLUSION that your player is as good as Curry Lebron KD ect ect ect with his 95 overall rating but REALLY he's only as good as George Hill Bradley Beal MCW Harrison Barnes Mason Plumlee Enes Kanter Clint Capela ect ect ect there is nothing wrong with that at all?

It might be interesting to compare a 95 rated 6'3 Playmaker PG to a 95 rated 6'3 Slasher PG for instance. I would guess the playmaker has a higher "real" overall.

I think that somewhat plays into it as well I'm a 95 overall shot creator that panned out to a REAL 79 overall which I don't think EVERYONE would be a 79 after they ran the test which is why I want others to do it & tell their REAL overall as well on here so we can all compare

No I agree, but mycareer is easy enough I think for the majority. And also, I was never under the illusion that we were as good as them lol. I'm a Playmaking PG and Anthony Davis has a higher 3pt rating than I will ever have.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's right. Is it strange. And I'm not disagreeing with you. But I don't think it matters so much as you can still get by.

Now, if the game modes introduced your myplayer playing against USER CONTROLLED NBA STARS with their real overalls then it would be a serious problem as you would be massively underrated.

I agree that it would be good to get a list of the real overalls for all positions and archetypes though.

I saw a video from someone that said they did that, and found that lockdown defenders were in the low 90s.
