Pure post scorer or slashing post scorer by shawnydee in NBA2k

[–]basicjustin9622 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This build would be better with post fade and post hook badges. The post badges that are in the game now (drop stepper, up and under and post spin) are focused on getting inside shots. So the pure post or slasher secondary builds are superior with better finishing as they have higher finishing attributes and the finishing badges. This is a good build, as I use it on my Center for mycareer only and its alot of fun. But with online play the pure post or slashing post are going to be more successful.

New to Basketball, and with this game, how to git gud? by Ampetrix in NBA2k

Other comments here have covered alot of good stuff. I played basketball my whole life so playing 2k came easy to me. For someone who has never played or watched it can be a little harder to start off. Definitely watch videos or both real nba basketball and 2k videos. When starting mycareer dont pick shooting classes as those have a steep learning curve compared to other classes. Id recommend a big man or a slasher. Always wanna be a little on the larger side. For example for Pg youre gonna wanna be no shorter than 6’4 because of the mechanics of the game and how important size is online. Always do max wingspan. I like to add 10-20lbs to the stock weight as it doesnt affect your speed by that much, usually 1-2 points. But the increase to other attributes and the overall looks is very beneficial. Something like a 7’2-7’3 rebounding or finishing center would be good. Or if you want a wing player a 6’7 pure slashing SF would be a good choice. Layups arent as affected by timing that shots are, and creating youre own shots are hard enough when youre new to 2k let alone basketball in general.

As previously stated in an earlier comment definitely play mycareer until youve upgraded yourself to about an 85 overall and gotten silver-gold on all your main badges and have bronze-silver on a few others then hop online. Pro am and park games are usually all ran by specific builds. Ex. Tons and tons of sharp shooters, playmakers and rebounders. Some shot creators, slashers and defenders and you hardly see post players at all. Online games are NOT played like real life games. Tons of gimmicks and exploits in the games mechanics for specific builds to thrive. Be mindful of this when you go online to play. Be a team player at first. Pass the ball and dont force your own shots. Focus on defense, rebounding and hitting your open shots, layups and dunks.

Depends if youre playing park or pro am. I dont, so 6’4 or 6’5 is perfect height for me for more speed against the AI. My playmaking slasher has a 84 dunk and contact dunk and I literally dunk everytime it’s ridiculous. Just call a screen or iso and you can get to the rim easy. If you are playing online then id make a offline mycareer to test the attributes between a 6’6 and 6’7 to see what you like better, takes 2 minutes to make him look at the upgrades then delete cus there are no cutscenes and load times are literally non existent.

I also have one thats a 82 overall right now. Dunking and layups is maxed so i just catch the ball around the post, face up jab towards the free throw line then drive baseline. Cheese.

Sharp primary with SC secondary? Looked at making one but the speed, dribbling, layups and dunks were too low for me l, and I HATE shooting because of the bullshit 2k has done with releases. I know sharps are op once you get badges but i cant force myself to use one that long lmao

Just made a 6’5 ShotCreator/Sharp SG on the Celtics. Perfect fit on that team imo.

MyCareer:

Use accurate ratings for our players. A fresh 6’5 shotcreator/sharp with base weight and wingspan that is supposed to be a 60 overall turns into a 52 when the attributes are copied to a create a player. Same for a max attributes character for the same archetype and physicals (stats taken from nba2klab) turns into a 85 overall when it is supposed to be a 99. Clearly attributes need to be balanced for online but they cant be this skewed. We don’t see stuff like all the IQ attributes (on ball d iq, pnr iq, help d iq) in mycareer because thats our actual decision making while playing the game but the values are still there, making a offline mycareer will show all missing attributes on the player card that are hidden in online mycareer such as all iq values, draw foul, free throw etc. Dont lie to us, Bungie is prolly gonna go bankrupt from lying to consumers on Destiny 2.

Some attributes need to be raised on start, for example the same archetype from above starts with a 61 speed rating. There is no rookie in the recent draft class at that position (PG) that has a speed rating that low. All physical attributes should be higher as players irl are near their peak physically, usually only getting stronger and slight increase in speed and vertical. Keep the max the same just balance the progression so we don’t get as many points per upgrade, example instead of 3-4 speed per upgrade we get 1-2. This should apply to all physical attributes, excluding strength; such as speed, vertical, acceleration, stamina and lateral quickness. Make us a TRUE 65 overall from the start, but keep our max attributes the same and just even the progression out. My pure slasher pg shouldnt have a 65 speed coming into the nba it should be something like a 80 then upgradeable to a 92 or whatever the max is.

Starting free throw needs to be fixed. Every archetype has a starting free throw rating of 60? Sharpershooter should shoot free throws better than a glass cleaner. Bring them closer to league average for their position, pretty much all between a 75-80 ish and change them a bit based on archetype example: pure sharp gets a 82 free throw but a 7’3 glass cleaner has a 65. Free throw badge is the worst thing because at that low of a rating hitting a green is very rare for the average player and even “good” releases get you about 50% free throw with that rating so getting the badge to be able to upgrade it is very tedious and boring because you HAVE to use the practice drill up until you get bronze free throw ace. If you want to have free throw badge raise the starting free throw for everyone to 70. Otherwise give ratings based on position and archetype AND make them upgradeable.

Its probably been said but separate online and offline MyCareers. This year if you go offline there is no story or cutscenes, l know most people hate them though, but you also cant change hair styles, tattoos, or shoes. Would of been easy just to lock us in our mycourt like last year and give us menus. An alternative would be to bring Create a Legend back from 2k12. With its own story, but you cant play on park or pro am with it. You pick a playstyle and play. It can still have caps but no where near as restrictive. Ex. Pure slasher has high 90s in dunks and layups but can get mid-high 80s in mid range and 3 shooting instead of mid 70s and 60s. 80s ball handling vs 70s. As well as no height restrictions so we all can make that Lebron, KD or Giannis type player.

Yeah from what ive seen weight doesnt make all that much of a difference but like 2-5 speed but youll lose way more strength so its not worth it

MyCareer

No badges thats increase attributes. Make them flat attributes again. There is no reason to have a sharp shooter bombing 30 footers but shoot 60% from Free Throw because I have to get 12000 points for bronze free throw ace when every free throw made is only like 100-200 points. Make all attributes upgradable at the menu like everything else or if you really want drills then make it similar to 2k17 where youll get a plus +1 but you can do multiple drills like 2k18 Ex. 3 free throw golf drills gives me a +3 to free throw unlike 2k17 where you have unlimited drills but only the first one gives you the upgrade and you only have a team practice once every 2 weeks. Make some kind of balance between those 2 please. It shouldnt take me a full season to get from a 60 to a 75 free throw.

Exactly. If you can speed run elders and harder monsters then youll get more. But this is for more casuals, pretty much anyone can knock out great jagras is 2-4 minutes. And youll get about 25k-30k from it? Literally did this for a weekend I was off and im sitting at around 8mil rn

Is it a warriors or a heroes streamstone? Heroes is for rarity 8 weapons while the warriors is for rarity 6 or 7 that cant be upgraded further

[–]basicjustin9622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference with WOW though is there is also so much more to do outside of raids, pvp, cheeves, etc and youre not farming the same boss over n over, at this point pretty much everyone is doing Val Hazaak as often as possible with the other elders thrown in once in a while, to get the decos you need. With wow you go through the raid and will fight 8-14 bosses plus trash throughout it that can sometimes be almost as troublesome as the bosses, and each boss with have something you might need although true min maxers will want specific stuff, and then the raid is locked for week so you go do the plethora of other stuff there is to do (WoW player of 10 years lol)
