NBA 2K MyTeam Still Struggling To Match EA Sports' Ultimate Team

[ChaseB]

After a shaky rookie season in NBA 2K13, MyTeam has quickly become a huge money-maker for Visual Concepts. But for as great as the mode is at encouraging users to make microtransactions, MyTeam still has not become a particularly fun or interesting mode to play.

So here are some areas where MyTeam must improve in the offseason if it wishes to be mentioned alongside Electronic Arts' Ultimate Team -- or even Sony San Diego's Diamond Dynasty -- as one of the most enjoyable fantasy team modes in sports gaming.

The real attributes part is key. I was playing my friend and he had Jeff Teague with a 90+ three pointer. Stuff like that doesn't even make sense. It's not the same player anymore at that point

MUT is a total rip off because all the players have the same animations, no individualism, and there is barely any difference at all between players. They just use decade old animations, equipment, and a broken ratings/attributes system, and slap historic player names on the jerseys. Tim Tebow has a 97 overall and you have the nerve too talk about Jeff Teague's 3 point rating.

Also 2K doesn't focus on this mode like Madden does. 2K has some many other good, deep modes unlike Madden. All Madden cares about is MUT, its one of their main modes, but this mode is only a side mode in NBA 2K, they dont try to force it upon everyone who plays the game like Madden does.

Tebow is a great example of MUT incompetency. I personally like the WR Johnny Manziel at 80

EA did a good job with Ultimate Team in Live...the rest of the game was just garbage.

Just copy the UT from them...and 2k would be golden. I agree 100% get rid of the BS boosts, if you're going to have emeralds and crazy cards...boosting one or two categories and lowering others could help off set it...but many guys are just super over rated with no weaknesses.

Would also like to be able to wager players in vs games...maybe value for value...these 2 cards each rated 70 for your one card rated 80-85....stuff like that...could add a whole new element to the games and challenges.

MyTeam and Ultimate Team both they need to die. Ever since sports games started having it, the over all quality of sports games have fallen off. Too much attention goes towards that and not the core game itself.

They could just let folks edit rosters online and play folks that don't mind playing against star studded over rated teams because they could do the same. What would be the difference?

Woah..Chase is back writing for OS? When did I miss this memo? Welcome back my dude. If you're ever looking for an online league to hoop in, I always got a spot for you.

There also can be an option that you can choose who you want to play like they do on Marvel Champions on mobile. Have an overall team rating and then give you three options of online players to choose from. They need to learn from the good mobile games that players actually like. There are a few good models to emulate.
