I just got deadeye on my new character last night..what a grind

Although I was trying to avoid volume shooter so that's probably why it took me so much longer..

Make sure your on HOF and just keep chucking away

NO, sim games DO NOT count. My advice to you, if you're going after badges or even farming attributes, play every game. The badge you're talking about requires you to play every game. DO NOT sim any of the 25 games. Also, if it says X amount of games, you need to play that many games. Even if you met all the requirements before that amount of time, you need to finish all games.

If I'm farming badges this is what I do. I play 6 minute 1/4ers on 100% game speed, rookie casual. If you're only looking to farm attributes you can hold steal and foul out. Attributes come out every 7 PLAYED games (fouling out counts as a game played). No simming. Playoffs count. Watch your averages and see what you need before the season ends. You may need to up your game time to 12 minutes depending on what you need and how close to the end of the season you are. Milk the playoffs for all 7 games in each series.

If you're trying for Deadeye here is the easy no fuss way. Play on Superstar, casual or sim didn't matter, X minutes doesn't matter. Walk the ball up to the free throw line and wait for a bump or you controller to shake then pull up for the jumper. Took me around 15 games on 8 minute 1/4ers.

Thanks for your answer and advices! To be honest I was mainly trying to reach 99 overall by plying games however I just now noticed that badges count a lot.
I play many games and also simed some however if for example I play 10 games then sim 5 games, and then play again will the stats of the first 10 games count for badges or only the last played games will count ?

1st 10 will count for longevity (duration of the season) badges. However, I've seen it screw up badges that require you to play 25 games in row. Dimer got weird on me the 1st time I did it when I skimmed 1 game around the 12 game. But for tenacious rebounder, it will only count the 1st 10 and then continue the count after your simmed games.

Great news for anyone who has VolumeShooter and doesn't have Microwaves! I just unlocked Microwaves as my 57th badge for my PG. One way of getting two red rings with VS is that trade to a team with a floor general, however, as I don't want to leave Doc Rivers, I have to find another way. Here is my method:
1. Get Closer, Fierce Competitor badges first, these two badges will help you get two rings when your team is down late.
2. In the first 3 quarters and first 7 minutes in the 4th quarter, try to drag your team down so that the opponent team can lead by about 20 points with 5 minutes left.
3. Now all you need to do to get two rings are making two limitless range three pointer, converting a 3 points play (hop-step layup is a good method for getting foul and making the basket), and passing a alley-oop (your teammate must score with this pass) in a row.
Hope this may help those who are struggling to get Microwave with VS.

So worth it..Not that I think it is a huge difference, but it is so obvious how quickly I get "hot" w/ 2 rings in park/rec now.
