We have a whole thread on this Bruh lol

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

We have a whole thread on this Bruh lol

Really? I searched through the forums before I made this so I wouldn't waste my time and the only one I seen that is kind of like this is the "MyCareer 1st badge thread" which I was aware of but made this one so you wouldn't have to scroll through numerous pages to find one badge.

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

also post that some of the badges are glitched and will not unlock.

I know people who did not get dead eye after getting green releases for 80 plus games

I know people who did not get dimer with over 2000 assists and 4:1 5:1 ratio

I know myself did not get breakstarter despite getting long passes for assists for over 80 games

and there are acrobat,unfazed, microwave for some and bruiser for big men.

I like how 2k made it so you need to earn the badges. Just sucks that some of the badges are glitched for some careers and no possible way to unock them.

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

I donno if they glitched or that we don't have the precise info on how to get them

For example, Those descriptions OddParadox wrote up top are not precise enough. A lot of those badges have been covered in much more detail in the other thread

I use the search button it works very well, just type in the badge you want or ask one of us I'm there all the time.

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

Just an FYI, it took me 7 games of shooting over 30+ shots a game with a SG to earn the 'Volume Shooter' badge.

It was really kind of you to type this all up. I could have put a 'but' at the end of that sentence and been a dick, BUT I didn't.

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

OddParadox Thanks for this. This is really helpful. 2k15 is my first Next-Gen game so this is great. I love figuring these things out though.

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

Some of these are false. I had 1600 assists and 181 turnovers in one season, play making on max as well.. Still did not get Dimer. I was averaging 42 assists per game at one point.

What position do you play?

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

A lot of these are inaccurate, it doesn't take nearly as many of anything compared to what your stating. Off the top of my head, I've seen people get volume shooter by shooting 20+ shots, not 30+. Eraser unlocks when you hit 80 blocks. Charge card unlocks when you get 3 charges in 1 game.

Tenacious rebounder is between 400-1500, for each point you have spent in rebounding it takes an extra 55. I've tested this one 4 different people and they unlocked the second they crossed;
400 for 0 in 1 season
455 for 1 in 1 season
510 for 2 in 1 season
and 1500 for 20 in 1 season.

Dimer is something like 1500-2500 assists @ 1:3-1:5 ratio or some crazy stat line like that, pretty sure the only way to do it 1 in season is 8+ minute quarters. (A double double on a pg is easy on 6 minute quarters, but that's only 820 assists in a season. Need something like 25 assists a game at max play making to get it in 1 season which is bat**** crazy if you have playmaking at a decent level).

Let's try to keep information informative and not guess work. Guess work is why people spend days playing nothing but rookie casual shooting contested shots. Or, like your post says, they change their layup mid animation, when the only way to get acrobat is reverse layups, changing your layup has 0 impact on it.


Thanks for typing it up and all but a lot of people are going to waste a lot of time trying some of these methods that are complete bullcrap, lol.

I fixed some of them up but if you could tell me all the ones that you think are inaccurate/false that would help

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

What position do you play?

PG. Hell in one game I had 53 assists. I played on 12 minutes on rookie for a whole season to rack up 1600+ to only 181 turnovers. Was livid when it didn't unlock. I gave up, now I'm trying to get deadeye.

EDIT: Proof.

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

Some these Badges take more than just actions to accomplish. like you will need a certain level in your shooting or w/e to get a badge.

this is a very important thing that you forgot to mention

[FeraNenem]

Re: -Official Tutorial On Every Badge in 2k-

limitless range is completely random. I got it shooting only open 3's, didn't need to be that far to unlock
