2K Pro-Am in NBA 2K16?

Re: 2K Pro-Am in NBA 2K16?

Giannis is a small forward and he is 6"11. Jason kid even played him at point guard sometimes. Have restrictions on height is really stupid because there are many cases of players like giannis. Instead of adding Cap they should just add penalty to it.

Lol dude you named ONE guy out of 300 plus NBA players with the size and skill set that he has. Many players? Not really. That's the problem with 2K.

It shouldn't be that easy to have a guy that's 6'11" have that skillset because it's so rare. How many other players in the last 20 years are as tall as Giannis at the SF position that can actually handle the ball like that?

Not to mention the kid is good but he's not a superstar by any means and probably will never be TBH. Good player on a good team but that doesn't mean there should be guys with 99 rated SF that can dribble and pass like Steve Nash just because ONE guy in the NBA can do it.

It's already a nuisance in the online modes already. To the point players are just making 7 ft PGs again. We're trying to not have a repeat of the things that ruined some great modes.

The nba is changing, the guy the Knicks drafted, he has a skill set of a small forward but he plays center. Willy cauley stein runs like a small forward, I can keep on going. Players are becoming more versatile, whether you like it or not doesn't matter. But I know what you mean by not having all 99. That's why I'm saying that they should set crazy height restrictions like a small forward can only b 6ft8 at max. Instead of doing that they should add weakness and strength to height and weight. So basically you want a 7 ft small forward? Well that's great, the maximum speed you can have is 78. Well you want your point guard to be 6"9, well the maximum speed you can have is 85 and because of long arms your ball handling rating can only be 78. You get what I'm saying but they should create height to skill ratio and weight to skill ratio. And it should also work vice versa so if you want a 5ft 8 point guard, you can max your quickness, speed and ball handling but your dunking can only be at a 65. I can keep going on. But you see what I'm saying?

You dudes cried like some little girls when 2K made the MyPlayer ascension to the top a little more realistic. Ever since then, they made is too damn easy.

So blame the community

So true. I remember when they started you out at like overall 45. That was the best time man. When no vc was bought, it was just grind. When I saw overall 75 on the blacktop I would be wowed... old days... sigh

I don't miss the 45 OVR thing, I miss the grind of gaining OVR, but I don't miss the stupid low OVR at all. You'd be a top 5 pick with a lower OVR than the bottom 5 picks.

no their ARENT many cases where teams have 6'11 small fowards. This why a ratings cap based on position and height is sufficient.

Read my post after that. There aren't a lot of cases exactly like giannis but their are cases of players doing thing and there height and weight that in the old days they would not be doing. Karl Anthony towns, has 3 point range, handles are top notch and he runs the floor like a big man. Of course he isn't going to be rated anywhere near the 90. But I'm saying is that the NBA is changing by the days.

Why do we have to blame the community? lol I'll put the blame on 2K because it's THEIR game they have the ultimate decision.

It was more balanced when you started as a low overall. It was more balanced when you could be a 99 in anything you wanted.
Why?
Because you got less skill points per game, and you had to play your games to get better.
Forget the hackers for a minute, when you played legit players they were usually really good at a couple things. There were rebounders/inside scorers, there were shooters/wing defenders, passers/dunkers...combinations were endless but at the end of the day these people had to use their skill points on certain things so they had to choose their playstyle carefully.

You had to play through 2 full seasons to even get a 90 overall lol you think people now would be in the 90s online? These lazy cheesers would be 80 overalls online and that cheese they try and pull would be useless against us guys who actually play.

We all have different ideas on how to balance the game...but we all want it balanced better, we agree on that.

So 2K, just know if you leave it like it is now, it will just be 90 overalls on day 1 learning the exploits and ruining your modes for you.

I don't understand why 2K can't come out with some in-game scan tech. Which would be somewhat like their face scan tech. But it would require a scan of your height and arm width, to finish the MyPlayer scan entirely!

That sounds cool in all, but i'm 5'8 I really don't want to play a game where I'm restricted to be that height as well.
If this were true there would hardly be any Centers or power forwards in the game. Heck even small forwards.

Dude, millions of people play this game we know as NBA2K. Plus the majority of those millions are playing MyPark. I'm almost positive there would be an equal amount of "real life bigs" scanning themselves into the game. Sorry but you, me, and many other real life shorties would be equal. Unlike how park is now with real life short people making big men.

I agree there should be caps, but they should be randomized so, for example: one in 30k centers have a cap of 70 stealing, one in 40k have a cap of 80, 50k 90, 100k 99.

This allows realistic ratings but leaves room for unique players and genetic freaks.

Then everybody would keep starting their guy over until they got that one in X player. Just leave it the way it is.

Couldn't have said it any better. Ever since they added vc into the game. I lost the motivation to legitly upgrade my player. I remember the grind in 2k11 of doing does training camps things. I remember speed being the hardest to increase so I had to keep doing that speed drill. Now people just pull out their wallet day 1 and bang it's done. I can't tell you the last time I played a full season in nba 2k14 and 15. The highest I've gotten any of my players to is 84 and that's vc from my league my gm and park. I don't blame people who buy the vc but I blame 2k for inputting such a game killing feature
