I want to play a career, I don't want to have to play online too just so my Career player gets to his maximum level.

You will start and be able to add attributes - the buckets vary depending on position.

You cannot max out at a 99 this year, not close. So even if you max out, you will have to earn more attribute bucket slots to fill up by playing MyCAREER and/or MyPARK. You will have to also EARN every badge you work for, but can upgrade badges once you receive them.

You can create players like point-forwards, but their play making maxed out won't be as high as say a PG. And rebounding for a PG won't be as maxed out nearly as high as a center. This, on top of the badge system, helps individualize players even further. Something the team spent a lot of time focusing on.

Hope that helps.

The way I understand it, you upgrade your MyCareer player through VC and earned badges. After you earn badges, you can upgrade those with VC. This will take the place of maxing out your player. It's the lack of badges that keep people in the 80s after spending all of their VC.

You can't fully upgrade your player in MyPark because you need the MyCareer earned badges to do that. You can fully complete your player in MyCareer and never go to MyPark.

Hopefully LD2k or someone else can confirm or correct this interpretation.

What about making a squad with your friends and them being in a a different affiliation?

For you guys worried that you will be forced to play MyPark - go to @50.00 mark where they first enter the attribute additions. The game states you earn the badges by playing MyCareer ...

So the earning of badges should be obtainable either by playing MyCareer or MyPark - the point being you must play one or the other to earn badges.

I know LD said MyCareer and MyPark but it sounded to me that he was throwing MyPark on the end of that sentence to try to clarify that you can play either to earn the badges.

Looks like I was ninja'd. Typing slow sucks

MyCAREER for badges.

Tons of MyPARK rewards as you earn Rep.

All of it ties back into your MyPLAYER, and earning and making yourself better.

No I'm going PS4 route. I think more people play on there.

So to be clear, you can progress to max on MyCareer alone without touching MyPark... and a MyCareer/MyPark character would not be statwise better than a purely MyCareer character in MyCareer.

Correct? (I hope the above made sense)
