Career Modes

Post by ajalves »

So I was messing around with the GM mode. How in gods name can you get "coins" if you are simming the games.

Everything costs a fortune and I'm getting like $600 coins per season.

Im the GM, i dont want to actually play the games

Finally downloaded it last night and was looking to get some guidance from guys that have already started on the most fun way to play this game.

GM Mode?
My player?
Online?

We have all said it but I cant believe they screwed up the online leagues as bad as they did for such a big launch on the next gen system. :x

MyPlayer is the most fun, but it's very repetitive. The janitor even has multiple birthdays.

When you can't sim games, makes it very tedious after a while

I played about 3 hours last night of My Player. Deff the best mode

Then played a Team Matchup game online, Big mistake. Talk about BLACK HOLES online. Whoever picked the team took the shitty Celtics and then the PG couldnt even get passed half court before getting a charge. Funny to watch him foul out in the 2nd quarter.

The 3 v 3 balcktop look s really fun, Or even 5 v 5 for that matter.


I have not messed with the GM mode yet, And to AJ they want you to BUY the coins. 80K for $20

:shock:

I'm not against buying coins. I'm really not. I just think you should be able to earn them easier as a GM. i think i had about 650 after a full season.

I mean it cost me 500 just to be able to edit the lineups

Tallied 18/6/7 in the rookie challenge.

Figured I'd be a top 10 pick.

Picked at 19 I think it was by the Cavs. Started my career off with a chip on my shoulder. Have been acting like a cocky youngin. All it has gotten me is in trouble with the GM and haven't played a minute through 3 games :lol:

Been fun thus far but wish you could x through the cut scenes.

Also, why does my 6'11, dirk like shooter white guy sound like Josh Carnegie from Williston? :|

If ya know what I mean. :)

Sounds like same thing that happened to me.

I had 22 points and 12 assists in that game as a PG. Had 3 top 10 teams interested. Feel to 20th and drafted by the Jazz, Who had taken Trey Burke 3rd overall, and had another 2 PG's on the team already.

1st 2 games didn't play. 3rd game Burke did something to his ankle and I played the whole 4th Q. And every since then my time has been going up. I am currently the teams 6th man now, Almost pulling as many minutes as Burke is.

Avg is 6.5 points and 6 assists a game through 10 games. Although the Jazz blow 2-8. I may be requesting a trade at the end of the season.

Also agree that some of the cut scenes are a little to much, But this mode is fun and enjoy it.

REAL bored at work, but AJ, if you're still having the coin issue, you can get free coins daily on the mynba2k14 app for iphone. They give you between 1000-1500 a day by picking an envelope from a lottery.

You can get like 100-300 more by picking NBA games each day too

Coaches are still here, and players are back in a little over a month, so we've still got shit to do. Coaching changes every year don't exactly help our offseason be easy.

That being said, we're in a bit of a lull now, but we still need to be here

also check Twitter @NBA2k14_news for codes for free coins, dunk packages, etc.

I haven't played this in like two months, I've been having a ton of fun with MyGM and MyTeam.

I've got 97/98 Tim Duncan, 90/91 Magic Johnson, 94/95 Terry Cummings, and 92/93 Jordan. So much fun to play w that team

Also have Harden, Wall, Joe Johnson, Davis, Cousins, 93/94 Hershey Hawkins, and some others on the team.

Having some sort of feeling that we may not see this on PS4 this year. :?

You can play online H2H fine, But the leagues side of it is busted..

So any kind of league would have to go through NDL2, And all that jazz. And I am sure no one really wants to enter stats and such, as most games do that stuff for you now a days, Which really sucks since this game was so good, But thats 2K for yea. Terrible online features.

Me and VT talked alot one night how we wish that 2K made the game and let EA do all the online stuff.
