About 25+ games in my first season of my player. Waas getting way to easy blowin everyone out by 30+ Bumped my difficulty up to HOF and still killin em.
Averaging 30p 6a 2s have not lost a game since my trade.
Only difference in difficulty is that you cant just freestyle it. You have to take your time and call set plays to score.
Also you shot seems to get blocked much more. But creating space fixes that easily.
I LOVE THIS GAME!
Heard the ROY achievement is glitched. It wont unlock if you win the MVP and ROY (which I am on pace to do).
I just hit 60 pts for the first time (52 pts, 55 pts, 58 pts, 62 pts my last 4 games), and I think its time I moved it up to HOF mode.
I don't know how you're on pace for the MVP though..this NBA 2k game (like the last one) is very reluctant to give the MVP to a rookie, no matter the stats. They'll fork over the ROY no problem, and you can make the All-Star game, but the MVP is pretty hard to get the first year.
I noticed on the last game though that I started out (at an 85 overall) as the frontrunner for the MVP award.
85 overall wow how many game have you played? I am about 30 games in and am a 60 overall.
I originally only had set the cpu sim to 6 min qt. So the first 10-12 games or so of the season people stats were messed up...and why my stats look so ridiculous hence MVP. I realized and corrected but no way they can catch up now
I meant 1st game, second season of NBA 2k10. That's when I was 85.
And that makes a lot more sense (the 6 min Q thing), when you look at the Award Races thing, are you leading?
Can I get advice on some of the drills? I'm currently a pg rated 44 four games into my first season. I am able to pretty consistently get gold on shooting, shot contesting and stealing.
I need tips on the following drills
1. Attack the basket (often get swallowed up and lose my dribble before I can get to the hoop).
2. Dribble (I only know how to do a crossover and step back)
The other drills I haven't mentioned are not really important to a pg but if you have tips I would like them.
Other questions:
1. Do people find it useful to bring up the passing icons?
2. What pg plays do people find work best?
3. At what rating do I unlock the most basic layup and dunk packages?
I mastered the dribble course. It takes practice. All this stuff is in the manual, but here is my best facsimile:
***All Moves Must Be Done While Moving Forward Unless Otherwise Noted
Easy Ones:Behind the back: Rotate left stick from ball hand side around back (bottom half moon). Don't touch L-Trig
Spin: Same as BTB but while holding L-Trig
Crossover: L-Trig while moving (quickly) left stick from ball side to other side (so if ball is in your left hand, you'd do left trigger (hold) plus quick Left>Right with the left stick
Hesitation/Sizeup: Both of these are super easy but not explained well in the manual. For hesitation,
let your guy come to a complete stop, then tap (like you were firing a single shot in Call-Of-Duty kind of tap) the left trigger. That's it. For Sizeup,
let your player come to a complete stop, then hold L-Trig and move left stick EITHER (but not both) left or right.
Step-Back: While moving forward, Left Trigger+back on left stick
The Hard Ones:Dbl Crossover and In+Out: Both the same move, while holding left trigger you move from ball hand to other hand then back to original ball hand (example, I'm dribbling in my left, I'd move Left>Right>Left).
The Dbl X-over is done rhythmically, while the in and out is very quick.
It will take a couple of tries to get the timing down, but basically the way I learned is In+Out you just flash to each side, while Dbl X-Over is like a metered cadence, like 1,2,3.
Half-Spin: This is the one move I have the most trouble with (and its maybe the most useless in my experience). While holding the left trigger, you move from the ball hand to the "down" position, then back along the same path. In the end though, this is hard to do because if you go past half way in any kind of fashion, then it becomes a complete spin. It should look like (if ball is in left hand): Left>Rotate to down middle (but don't go over)>Rotate back along same path to front
If you have any other moves let me know.
