Earning Badges in NBA 2K15

Deadeye took me no more than 10 games on superstar taking 50+ shots a game

No matter what badges or hotspots you get shooting consistency is stuck at 50 which means a lot of blown shots

Anybody know how long it takes to get deadeye on Rookie?

I played rookie to get all my badges as soon as possible. Although I didn't know this at the time, after reading the official information on Deadeye, it only took me 15-17 games (roughly 30-35 jumpers each game). Once you figure out the right way to do it, making 100 of them is a piece of cake.

I was just thinking about that too. Of all the 2K hang-ups I have, this one might take the cake.

And it's not just offensive consistency; overall durability is stuck at 73, and hands are stuck at 80 (there might be others too, I don't know). It's infuriating, not to mention the durability attribute blocks anyone from getting Gatorade Hardened.

I checked all my players too (every position with various heights and weights and overalls), and those particular attributes are all the exact same.

Exactly. I'm not saying consistency should be 90 that's too high but maybe 65-70 would be a sweet spot for those of us who play online.At 50 you literally have bad shooting games for no reason . Guys can just leave you open for no reason sometimes.

I think we could see 1 more patch next month that addresses shoe issue, some badge issues , maybe the stutter animation on drives , etc But that's wishful thinking

I already got acrobat, I was just asking tips on what others went through to get shot creator etc.

All my players just play in My Career. I don't do the park so I'm always worried about my stats and can't handle missing so many shots to get some of these badges like Deadeye.

I'm glad this got pointed out. Now, I understand why a shot motion I can do in my sleep misses without explanation.

You just have to make sure that you're shooting and making you shots in the actually zone you want each time. Also, just a side note, even with all those 3PT zones red, I didn't notice any difference online.

I thought hotspots helped and transferred over to the Park? It might be in my head but I've got 2 spots red in the top of the three and feel I always hit those areas more in the Park as opposed to the other side where its all cold.

Wow, so make or miss basically just jack up 50 shots from anywhere on the floor for 10 games? Does it matter if there 3 pointers or not and if dudes are in your face or not? You had to have it on 12mins right?
