Even as a 40-something on All-Star all you had do was score like 6 points, get 3 rebounds or dish out 3 assists. A lot of people didn't do the simple things like box out it didn't matter if the shot was going in or not all you had to do was put a body on someone, setting screens or picks or even get out of the way and the superstars go to work which gave you an increase for spacing.

 Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #4: MyCareer
 
 According to Game Informer, yes you can take your MyCareer player online in Blacktop Mode. Also, it says "10-Player online." Anyone knows what that means?3:08-3:15 ish

 So... what does that mean? Is this a possible hint/slip at the ability to take your MyCareer player online?#HeatNation

 Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #4: MyCareer
 
 I have a way 2k can appeal to both sides, sim and casual:
 
 We should choose résumés:
 
 Top Pick
 Top 5
 Lottery
 Mid to late 1st Round
 2nd Round
 Undrafted
 
 Each résumé would have age, class, college or euro stats, strengths and weaknesses, NBA comparisons, personality, etc.
 
 Next:
 
 Hire Agent
 Buy apartment (not a fan, but with the new stuff, can’t see why not)
 Hire Trainer- Workout in preparation for Draft
 
 Then (all in accurate order):
 
 Portsmouth- is the 64 senior draft prospects, looking to improve draft stock. PIT is an 8-team, 12-game tournament held over a four-day period. April 11th to April 14th. Jimmy Butler, Landry Fields, and Jeremy Lin are some alum.
 (Résumé, seniors 2nd round and undrafted)
 
 NBA Draft Combine- in reality it’s the interviews, measurements, and athletic testing. The combine is drill based, there are no scrimmages. June 6th to 8th in Chicago.
 (Résumé Top 60 best prospects, both international and college)
 
 Euro Camp- Three day camp, internationals only, top prospect going through measurements, drills, daily scrimmages, and daily cumulative all star games.
 (Euros)
 
 Pre draft workouts- Every prospect with a shot at the NBA workouts for teams with interest. Doing various drills assigned. Coaching staff, management, and scouts are all there.
 (Every Résumé)
 
 All these events really exist, unlike the showcase thing.
 
 Summer League- Not optional, unless injury.
 (Every Résumé)
 
 D-League- If you get assigned, you go.
 (Every Résumé)
 
 Training camp
 (Every Résumé)
 
 
 *Top picks choose to participate in the combine. Users who have no interest, you'd get measured at the combine, but your agent would say the my player (you) will only participate in team workouts. Just like real top picks and lotteries do.Last edited by @ Lanc City; 09-11-2012, 04:09 PM.Comment

 Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #4: MyCareer
 
 It'd be nice if players could select a career path at the start, in terms of working their way through the Combine and Summer League or just jumping right in after the Rookie Showcase. I also felt MyPlayer lost a bit of its immersion with the removal of some of its initial features. With that said, I did find them to be repetitive at times, but I felt that could be changed and improved without too much of a makeover.
 
 For starters, I'd have made the D-League fully editable (if player rights could not be attained). I thought playing in the D-League was a great experience but a major downfall was largely playing against generics. Even if that meant my teammates were largely made up of guys like Robert Vaden and Drew Neitzel (user created versions of them, if nothing else) the 2K D-League would have been absolutely legit. For me, authenticity is authenticity.
 
 In terms of Summer League, some authentic and varied venues would have gone a long way in terms of immersion. Rocky Mountain Revue, Vegas, Orlando... knowing your destination would vary depending upon where you were drafted, that'd add a lot. Further, a more variable crowd and commentary would have also helped things feel fresh and unique.
 
 Basically, I do think that portion of MyPlayer dragged a little bit, but only because it needed a little TLC. I thought it had potential to be pretty awesome. Even as it was, getting the call-up to the NBA was pretty awesome.Comment

 Re: NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #4: MyCareer
 
 I see concern about 99 rating at year 3. Obviously he just 'cheated' it up....but won't everybody have their own development pace this year? If someone can earn upgrade credits in any mode, isn't it conceivable people could upgrade their MyPlayer to 99 before ever even starting MyCareer?Comment

 That is true. I remember I noticed it but nobody did as well. Hopefully they will fix it. Because in 2k12 My Player the draft picks were always distributed in alphabetical order.Comment
