    How To Get The Most Out Of NBA 2K12 In The Next 48 Days




    With details of NBA2K13 beginning to surface, it’s easy to get excited about the game’s Oct. 2 release date at this point.

    But let's not live in the future so much just yet, we still have NBA 2K12 keep us company for a month and a half. If you have been playing NBA 2K12 for the past 10 months or so, you likely have done just about all it is that you want to do with the game, so it begs the question: How can we get more out of our copies of NBA2K12?

    Whether you’ve played NBA 2K12 a lot or a little, the My Player mode provides a lot of options for challenges and different play-styles that can help you get more out of a game that’s nearly a year old.

    Article should be called "How to get the most out of NBA 2K12 My Player in the next 48 Days." I recommend downloading one of the user rosters that makes all teams "Classic Teams", and it makes your My Player already 99 in everything. It's really fun playing with and against legends on that roster, but I wish you could lower some of the My Player's 99 ratings.

      I've been playing my Hornets Association while I wait for 2k13. Currently in 2014-2015 season. Lakers won 2013-2014 NBA Championship over Heat to give Kobe his 6th ring (which, by the way, he still hasn't retired). Lebron James and Chris Bosh enter free agency. Lebron goes back to Cleveland, who, at this time, are the 2nd best team in the NBA (with all-star Kyrie Irving, 6th man of the year Jeremy Lin as well as a handful of top-to-lottery big men lottery picks). Carmelo Anthony signs a deal with Miami making the heat the 3rd best in the NBA.

      NBA Champions so far:
      2011-2012: Miami Heat
      2012-2013: Oklahoma City Thunder
      2013-2014: Los Angeles Lakers

      Hoping to finish one more season before 2k13 releases.

        The screen issue you mentioned is one of my main gripes rt now, Im a point and trying to run plays for my big men is such a hassle. They have to fix this.

        Ive actually been having fun with this game again. I only played MyPlayer at 1st, but my roommate and I created ourselves and put started a franchise so we could play against each other. We kept the player lock on our created players so it still has the my player feel. We've had some great battles.
        Did this dude just did this?

          "Although only PGs can call plays themselves in My Player,"

          Only the player holding the ball can call plays in any mode. So if you play locked as a player, say a C in association, you have to call for the ball or wait for the ball before calling a play.

            Do you know the name of this roster and how do I load it into My Player mode?

                Get a quality 2012/13 roster and begin playing the 2012/13 season early. I doubt I'll move from 2K12 to 2K13 for Association mode until the trade deadline passes.

                    Check the Roster section on these forums. There are a few roster makers with a large following here.

                    If you want an Association file updated for 2012/13 and don't care about playing Quick Play or MyPlayer, then PM me and I'll send you info for my 2012/13 version.

                      I'm still really enjoying this game since I had to keep restarting my season while waiting for rosters to be complete. There are a few flaws that are really bad though and starting to get to me, like the team stats being all out of wack. Just curious if this is just a PS3 thing or other users having the same issue?

                        It's a bug in the team stats database.

                        People with REDitor can fix it, but that's only for 360 and PC. If you're on PS3, then you need to use a roster that is based (original file) on one of the most recently updated 2K rosters. Most custom rosters are projects from back in 2011 and those will all have this bug.

                            Love this article. More My Player breakdowns, please! Plus, would love to read more breakdowns on how to create a player in all sorts of ways for all the games (how to create FNL's Tim Riggins in NCAA or Madden or a knuckleball star in THE SHOW, Jay-Z in 2K etc.)

                              1. Try to find more hidden players so you could help roster makers.
                              2. Play legends showcase
