It feels like my guy is skating on defense and its pissing me off when im moving to get a rebound with a Pf/C and a pg will snatch the shyt out the air from me. Is that some sig skill with rebounding or is my controler fukked

thats my biggest issue, why is it so hard to rebound. i was playing with the spurs against the sixers, down by 2 with a min left, i contested a shot, the ball is coming off the rim and i got 3 big men down there. All of a sudden jrue comes in and grabs the boards from all of them :childplease:, goes straight up and misses of course.
still got my big men all down there, and all of a sudden bynum gets the board over all of them and revers dunks on me and gets the foul. so instead of getting a board and getting a potential fast break to tie the game i'm down 5, and end up losing the game

I wanted to go to Phoenix, even got interviewed by them. 6'11" PF. Got selected by the Rockets. It's all good.

I created a PG at first then them nikkas kept moving me to SG. Then I created a Combo Guard 6'5" then they kept moving me to SF! So I said eff it PF and they move me to Center RARELY. I play most of the game at PF. 2K has to fix that in the future.

When you start out you'll be a combo-player or depending on your position have to go -1 or +1 (eg. if you're a SG be prepared to play SG, PG, AND SF). That's why being a C or a PG, they limit it to only 1 other position (SG for PG and PF for C). It's a lot easier to play and you won't get exposed to a mismatch especially earlier on, as you get better you'll regularly be assigned to your actual position :jawalrus:

1-3-1 zone, and 2-3 tend to work best imo. You're giving up the three point shot in both, so a guy that knows what he's doing will and can pick it apart. I actually found a lot of success with the 3-2, also. It's tailored to guard the three point shot, but it makes it hard for them to bulldoze into the paint in my experiences.

Whenever you play the zone, just make a concentrated effort to stay one step ahead of your opponent mentally when they're swinging the ball around for the perimeter looking for threes. You'll have to switch defenders a lot, but it's damn effective at forcing turnovers and locking down the paint. I alternated between zones just a few minutes ago as I was playing a guy that used the Nuggets and tried to dunk every play with Iggy.

It's really absurd, though. They've removed all collisions from the game. I'm not seeing these brand new physics that they bragged and boasted about. The demo played better. That's hilarious and sad at the same time.

So You Cant Create Multiple My Career's?

Nah, you can. The guy will just always have the same name. This came from their official website on their forums, btw. Called it a "workaround."
















:aicmon: I'm convinced 2K is trolling at this point.

:wtf: so playerd don't bump into each other or hit the floor?

I guess 2k got greed after the sales of 2k11 and instead of sticking with the winning formula, started to go for what will get them the most casual fans. Things like that happen when you have no competition.

No, don't get me wrong. There are still collisions in the game; just not nearly enough. Guys literally slide right by you as if you're not there when they're heading to the paint. I'm not seeing instances of guys colliding at the rim during contests, either. I ran a TeamUp match and it was impossible to bump the guy I was guarding while the CPU attempted to cut to the rim. Off ball collisions and contact in the paint while someone is driving(doesn't even have to be an animation this year) are nonexistent. I said it earlier, but the demo had better physics than what I'm seeing now.

Kevin Love looked at my player like


"let me work. .. Please let me work, YOU gone get this work"


I spent most that damn game hoping Doug Collins would switch me off that dude :laugh: no shame in admitting "I got that work" unfortunately.



Game is extremely fun so far
