How would you recommend trying to learn how to play this if the last basketball game you played was NBA Jam T.E. at the local theater? I was able to do pretty much everything in the "training" section pretty well, but once I went out and tried to play a quick game (me as Pacers vs computer as Bucks), I just can't seem to get anything done.

As someone in a similar position, what's helped me is focusing on only one aspect of moves until I feel good using them. I spent a few games where I only tried to score with post moves until I had them down pat. Then I moved to the different jumpers and after feeling good there, I've started working on dribbling. It helps to do it in myCareer since you only control yourself in that.

Yeah, I was understanding it pretty well when it was just ONE guy who didn't do anything. Then I took Andre TheGiant in to myCareer, and there are like, 5 guys on the other team all getting in my way

If randoms off the internet can constantly do a graphic overhaul every year in 2k, surely a multi-million corporation can. Though if the graphics were the only problem, which it's not by far. There's a lot worse poo poo going on in Live.

oldskool posted:How big of an update would that have to be to contain a complete graphical overhaul of the game? Depends on the engine. If they just replaced a few textures and tweaked the engine to use some GPU features they hadn't included it wouldn't have to be that large. Of course they could do a massive overhaul and it could be huge. I'm pretty sure they are just talking out of their rear end anyway though. I'm all for competition but they keep shooting themselves in the foot.

So I finally get to start on my Team(Suns) after 38 games and 30 ppg, 4.5 apg, and 5 rpg. And what do I do... I get my first triple double, 42 points, 12 assists, 11 rebounds.

I'm having a blast playing MYPLAYER. I just spent a few spacebucks so I could get my ball handling and offhand up, as well as level 3 ankle breaker, and boy howdy is it fun embarassing the poo poo out of whoever is guarding me. You can really create your shot consistently with that perk.

Not sure, but I spent $10 and my dude went from 10ppg to 35-50ppg whenever I want. It may not be worth it to some, but I'm enjoying it more than being a scrub dog that gets no playing time.

Where's the training mode in this game? I have no loving clue how to even score a single point in any mode. Oh and thanks for not letting me restart a game. You've never played the game before and can't play perfectly in the rookie showcase? Tough poo poo, idiot. Edit: and you can't skip cutscenes! Haha this game is a joke. paint dry fucked around with this message at 17:33 on Nov 30, 2013 |

There is a training camp where it will run you through moves which should help. You may also want to play some regular games to learn the controls and how to score before jumping into myPlayer, your myPlayer is pretty lovely to start.

I like when I score 51 points in myplayer and my idiot team still loses because of crazy AI rubberbanding. Seriously the most frustrating thing to me is when I build a 20 point lead on my own and then "oh I sat for 4 minutes and now my team is down by 10 ".

Damnit, is there a way to create a new account so I can get the first VC bonus? I read somewhere that you can uninstall and reinstall the game and you should be able to get the bonus coins again. When I first fired up MyCareer I used up the beginning points before I really knew what I was doing, because silly me, I thought the points were per-career instead of being per-account.

I don't know if this is files or whatever, but if you have a 360 and a USB memory card you can easily modify your myplayer game save to give yourself fan points or whatever to spend on skills by using a program call horizon. It's kinda cheating but it sure beats spending real life money.

The lengths this game will go to gently caress with you on Myplayer is astounding. Before the game, Kevin Love comes up to me talking about how we can partner up like "Bird and McHale" to win a bunch of titles. I said that sounded good, and then he started talking about me having to accept my sidekick role. Since I'm averaging like 30/5/5/5 right now, I told him to cram it up his cram hole, and told him I'd score 25 points and we'd win by double digits. So flash forward to midway through the third quarter, I have 35 points, 12 boards and we're up by 14. What happens? They bench me the rest of the third quarter and the ENTIRE FOURTH QUARTER, except for the final six seconds. Of course at that point we're down one. I miss a contested jump shot and after the game Love tells me what an rear end in a top hat I am and that I'm not ready for the primetime. There was also a glitch where my character, seated, suddenly morphed into Kevin Love, so it was Kevin Love telling himself that he actually sucked IRL.
