    What Level Will You Reach

    So I keep seeing people just assuming they will get to a 99 overall online. Considering reaching level 98 gets you on 2kTV for us to all see your beautiful face, I just don't think that many people are going to reach a level above that. I think getting up into the 90s will be doable for most who play this game regularly, but unless 2k is your life I think the people assuming they will get to 99 to bump up all of their badges is just ridiculous. Also, let's not even talk about making multiple builds if we don't get to keep reusing the points we have already unlocked.

    My goal is to ride out my first build to the 90s. Once we get the game figured out, get my second and likely better build to the 90s. Then a last one for fun in the final months of the game to the mid-low 80s.

    I made the mistake of making lots of players at the beginning of the year setting me back in time. I plan to get at least 97 as I hit ss4 in 2k17. Aiming for 98 or 99 though

    Grinding for Legend when 2k18 drops.
    Former ss4 in 2k17. add me if you wanna run in 2k18.

    psn: carrboys
    My Players:
    6'6 SG 94 Overall Slashing Defender
    6'5 SG 90 Overall Pure Sharpshooter
    6'8 SF 81 Overall Two-Way Slasher
    Active Daily on 2K, I play 2s, 3s & Walk-on.
    If you're active and would like to run Park or Walk-on Shoot me a PSN Message and we can get some games in.

      What Level Will You Reach

      The real question is are they gonna make us some glorified role players like they did last year or will our ratings be a real reflection of our overall rating?

      Oh and im aiming for that 96/97 overall

        It really depends on how slow will be the grinding/progression after you hit 85.

          Too much unknown about the process at the moment to make a judgement. If they reward playing career on HoF with a grinding multiplier like they do for VC, then I'd expect to hit 99, if it has no bearing, then the park kids playing thousands of games and playing career on rookie for badges will be the first guys to do it.

          As long as I can get to 91 so I can start influencing roster moves then I'll be good with that.

            99 at least three times! I use MyGM to rack up VC. I like the level rewards this year.

              VC alone is not getting you to a 99. It's going to be a grind that includes practices and games (park/pro-am, or career)

                Nobody really knows right now. It doesn't seem like it will be that hard to get to 90. But if you get 99 you get immortalized or whatever, and last year, you needed to play it like it was a full time job to get to the highest rank.

                  I always get to around superstar 1 around February . But that never included mycareer and pro am teamup time . I think 90= superstar this year. I see my self maxing out at 94 overall before the next 2k.

                  Also as of right now I'm only building one guy.

                    Of course not, it'll help jump start my other characters though. Especially when double VC kicks in.

                    VC alone gets you up to 85 overall, that's half the battle.

                      This is where I'm at. If you're not playing 60 hours a week for months on end, I don't think you're making it to 99.

                        One of my pro am teammates thinks that hitting 90 won't be easy neither, since it will unlock the "go next" command in the playground, which wasn't common in previous 2ks

                            I just got to Superstar 1 in 2k17 so I believe the equivalent of that would be 95 in 2k18.

                            I hope theres some carryover for rep, like there was previously. Gotta be a reward for being a good player with a lot of rep in the previous game.

                            and seeing that you can grind badges in all modes makes me believe that you can truly create a player that suits your play style, and you are rewarded throughout, so inflated prices for things will balance out.

                            tbh I think if I can stick with just one build, I can hit 99 and if I move to a second I can get to 92.

                            I just hope the MyCareer story is fun coz I wanna play that ish on HOF and go down as a GOAT (by simming regular season games), play like 5 seasons

                              I don't think you realize how hard it will be, they're saying getting to 98 will get you on 2KTV, you expect to do that and then some to get to 99 on more than one character?
