More than 30 hours in. Just got 70 overall. I have better luck shooting in broadcast mode than default.
I also turn the ball more as well. =/. Not too mention get less assists because it's harder to see the floor ahead on broadcast.
Averaging roughly 15ppg,5ass, 7 rebounds. I get a triple double roughly every 3rd game, but the turnovers and extremely streaky shooting makes it rough to be aggressive. This is average before the all star break. Would be higher if not coming off the bench early.
Also averaging roughly 5 TO's a game as a starter.
It's easier to not turn the ball over on default camera angle but hard to hit the damn shot.
I turned off shot meter btw, it appears to be broken.

I have only ever used 2k camera mode. No way could I ever use broadcast.

Looks better while shooting, but man... Trying to pass on transition...
Not too mention, I can anticipate cutting routes better. Helps cutting down on turnovers.

Patch number 4 of 176 is out today.
Patch Notes
Not a thing of interest for me. 2k really is something else.

Too bad I can’t play it. Been getting a can’t connect to server message for two days now :(..
Don’t think it’s an internet issue because everything else plays flawlessly. Sent a ticket to 2ksupport and now I just wait it out. Sucks because I just got myplayer where I wanted him for pro-am.

Good luck. Probably will take more than 2 weeks for a response.
Team pro-am is even more broken after the patch. All of our teammates just get stuck by the door. It's about time for me to take a break from this game.

I finally got my offer from Nike. When do the shoes come? I accepted the offer and then nothing really. I need some shoes to play in
Posted on 10/17/17 at 10:21 am to MaHittaMaHitta
You aren't far behind me. Even tho from the get go I told Bryan I wanted to sign with Nike. I had to go thru the recruitment process for Under Armor, Adidas, and Jordan. Then finally got an offer from Nike.
This is the way i think it goes:
> Nike Offer > Sign with Nike > Start receiving Nike per game salary
> Design your own custom colorways (can wear during games OR you could before patch 1.04)
> Get a per game Nike salary bump
> Keep playing well > Get Nike billboard
> Get another meeting with Nike execs flirting with getting your own custom Nikes
> Get our own Custom Nike shoes > Get your own Nike commercial featuring your Custom Nike Shoes
> Get a per game Nike salary bump
I've created my custom colorways, but due to patch 1.04 I can't wear them in game or in the Neighborhood / Park / Practices. Super ghey. And I've just had another meeting with Nike Execs where they say people are loving my custom colorways and if I keep my progressing my play, I'll soon get my own Nike shoe and Nike commercial.
MyCareer Update:
Overall lvl 80
6'7" Shot Creating Playmaker
Averaging 15 pts, 7 assists, 7 rebounds (9 minute quarters)
Took the lead in the RoY Award
I'm past the All-Star break, couple weeks away from Playoffs
6 out of 14 badges maxed.
Pelicans #1 seed in the West. We shite on everyone. Me, Boogie, and AD are an unstoppable trio. Only teams able to play us closely are Rockets, Warriors, Celtics, and Cavs.
I've spent almost every cent of VC on my attributes. I'm still rocking jeans, my free Porzingas jersey, and some Air Force Ones on the park. I've almost maxed out the expensive shite (3pt, Mid, Speed, Acceleration, and Dunks). So i should be able to catch up Overall wise pretty quick seeing how all the attributes I have left to max are all a lower cap and cheaper.

Yea I went through all of the offers as well even though I asked for Nike originally. I read on reddit that it helps to buy a pair of Nike's to wear in games and get their attention. After abut 4 games in Nike's I got the offer.
I'm a 70 overall, but putting up huge numbers for the Mavs. 1 badge maxed. Haven't gotten any billboard or special shoes from Nike yet.

Have y'all been playing much lately? I've been playing a lot of my league and it's been very glitchy since the last update. I usually run a 5 out set on offense but in every game I've played recently the players don't listen to any of the adjustments. I've noticed a couple other small matters as well.

Man, this fricking game. I'm averaging over 20 points a game the last 5 or so games. Averaging over 15 rebounds, averaging over 13 assist.
You'd think I'd be happy? Nope! fricking shooting like 40% and mostly wide open. WTF, my dude has mid 70's shooting on mid and 3 pters. Still shot and everything.
Went back to default camera angle, so my turnovers went back down(70 assists 8 to's last 5 games) ,but the fricking shooting is garbage again.
Over 20 shots a game and 3/4 I'm open or lightly contested. fricking bricks galore.

Game is arse. I haven’t picked the game up in 2 weeks. Last I checked I was lvl 89 with a shite ton of maxed badges. I just can’t get past the unfulfilling career mode, not to mention all of the mechanical issues.

My favorite part of this game is interacting with the doorman and b fresh's improv group. Really gets me into feeling of being a real NBA player.
