2K Pro-Am in NBA 2K16?

[HowDareI]

Why do we have to blame the community? lol I'll put the blame on 2K because it's THEIR game they have the ultimate decision.

It was more balanced when you started as a low overall. It was more balanced when you could be a 99 in anything you wanted.
Why?
Because you got less skill points per game, and you had to play your games to get better.
Forget the hackers for a minute, when you played legit players they were usually really good at a couple things. There were rebounders/inside scorers, there were shooters/wing defenders, passers/dunkers...combinations were endless but at the end of the day these people had to use their skill points on certain things so they had to choose their playstyle carefully.

You had to play through 2 full seasons to even get a 90 overall lol you think people now would be in the 90s online? These lazy cheesers would be 80 overalls online and that cheese they try and pull would be useless against us guys who actually play.

We all have different ideas on how to balance the game...but we all want it balanced better, we agree on that.

So 2K, just know if you leave it like it is now, it will just be 90 overalls on day 1 learning the exploits and ruining your modes for you.

I don't understand why 2K can't come out with some in-game scan tech. Which would be somewhat like their face scan tech. But it would require a scan of your height and arm width, to finish the MyPlayer scan entirely!

That sounds cool in all, but i'm 5'8 I really don't want to play a game where I'm restricted to be that height as well.
If this were true there would hardly be any Centers or power forwards in the game. Heck even small forwards.

Dude, millions of people play this game we know as NBA2K. Plus the majority of those millions are playing MyPark. I'm almost positive there would be an equal amount of "real life bigs" scanning themselves into the game. Sorry but you, me, and many other real life shorties would be equal. Unlike how park is now with real life short people making big men.

I agree there should be caps, but they should be randomized so, for example: one in 30k centers have a cap of 70 stealing, one in 40k have a cap of 80, 50k 90, 100k 99.

This allows realistic ratings but leaves room for unique players and genetic freaks.

Then everybody would keep starting their guy over until they got that one in X player. Just leave it the way it is.

Couldn't have said it any better. Ever since they added vc into the game. I lost the motivation to legitly upgrade my player. I remember the grind in 2k11 of doing does training camps things. I remember speed being the hardest to increase so I had to keep doing that speed drill. Now people just pull out their wallet day 1 and bang it's done. I can't tell you the last time I played a full season in nba 2k14 and 15. The highest I've gotten any of my players to is 84 and that's vc from my league my gm and park. I don't blame people who buy the vc but I blame 2k for inputting such a game killing feature
