NBA 2K20 wishlist thread

[VDusen04]

Just mentioned this in another thread but as a single player I'd love to see an almost exact NBA replica of the trophy case seen at 3:08 from NFL 2K5:



Having something tangible like that, even if it comes with no additional pomp, circumstance, or unlock, greatly increased replay value. Knowing there was, say, an Anquan Boldin achievement to unlock gave me reason to diversify and utilize different teams.

An NBA 2K20 version could be diverse and variably challenging. "Grab 20 points and 20 rebounds with Andre Drummond". "Score 70 points with Devin Booker". Even better, 2K could attach achievements to all classic teams as well, giving them a purpose beyond random Quick Plays (assuming a Classic mode isn't coming back anytime soon). "2004 Pistons: Hold the 2004 Lakers to 70 points or less (8 min quarter or above required)". "Score 50 points with 1989 Michael Jordan vs. 1989 Detroit Pistons".

Even generic in-game achievements would be nice to have back. Akin to NFL 2K5's "Grab 8 Interceptions", it'd be nice to have trophies or recordable notes of things like "Hit 15 threes in a game", "score 40 points in a quarter", "achieve a triple-double" with dates and teams involved included (Russell Westbrook - Thunder vs. Hawks 11-22-19).

The real dream would be replicating NFL 2K5's "Moments" mode, where gamers could pick from 25 classic moments in NFL history and try to replicate them. For example, re-creating The Drive from 1987 by being thrust into a game situation where John Elway had to drive 98 yards with the clock ticking.



Imagine being able to re-create moments like "Kobe Bryant's Game 2 Buzzer-Beater vs. 2004 Pistons" or "Jordan's The Shot vs. '89 Cavs" or "Klay's 37-Point quarter", "T-Mac's 13-in-35".

Tons of potential there, all while giving classic teams vastly increased relevance. 2K has put so much work into classic teams and players over the years, it'd be a shame not to utilize them for something great.

Just in terms of MyCareer, it would be awesome if you could adjust muscle mass and definition. These could directly be attached to specific sliders such as strength, or durability, or fatigue. Of course the NBA isn’t like that of the NFL, but even in Madden you can adjust different aspects of the body. It would be fantastic to make historical builds for MyCareer such as Shaq, with the understanding that you will be the last one down the court and tired after 7 minutes. But not everyone wants a 3 point shooting build. Currently adding weight to players hardly affects appearance, but can drastically change attributes.

Wow did they ever break 2k19.

I haven't played in a few months just from playing other things. Had a craving, so I threw it on pro. I just can't get over the amount of stupid misses there are now. I'm assuming they were trying to balance out shot %'s so they made you miss dunks and layups and stuff. I am by no menas a great player, but I used to play on HoF and have very good games with a normal W-L based on the team I was using.

So my biggest wish is to, for the love of god, not give in to all the whiney *** fans who complain becuase they aren't allowed to cheese anymore. It's just sad to see the patches come and the gameplay slowly breakdown because people want to play stpid ways. When they adapt that they have to make up for things elsewhere. Out of the box last year was one of the best 2k gameplays I have seen.

Just stick to your guns. Let the whiney park players who want to run in circles and hit 3's suffer. Let people actually play basketball. The boys doing the play call system deserve a lot more respect. It actually teaches you to play basketball, but from what I've seen it gets broken by the players that want to cheese the game and not play real ball.

My biggest problem with gameplay is the ridiculously long amount of time it can take to inbound the ball after a basket. That is so annoying and needs to be fixed for 2K20. However, I'm sure it won't be addressed.

The same with timeouts. You have to wait 5 seconds for time outs. I wish we could X through them. Someone on here said it was because of "loading" though I don't understand that at all.

Please take out the no-call where you can get hacked in the paint right after pressing the shoot button, and you get a turnover.

I need these hairstyles to return. The ones in 19 are horrible. Not nearly enough variety when it comes to certain styles.








Also need this Face Discoloration and Asymmetry back



Along with the ability to profile sculpt so we can make heads more thin and narrow like this

I would like a third archetypes or third spéciality in MyCareer.

I dont know how but a way to be a more complete player, I love the MyCareer mode to try to be a Lebron, Curry or Harden and we are way too much limited
