Create A Legend Successes

[djwax90]

Share your proudest Create A Legend accomplishments here. It's been a good enough amount of time since the release that I'd imagine some people have put together some good runs in this mode, and I'd like to hear about em.

Share your stats, who you've been crafting into a legend, and so on.

Personally, I just started with Paul George. I can't think of a more fun player to craft. He's only 21, has crazy athleticism, excellent range, and a whole lot of potential, starting out at a 73 OVR.

First game stats:
37 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal on 57% FG on All Star (which is about all I can really handle in regular full team games against the CPU).

My only complaint is I feel like I'm getting far more minutes than I should. Averaging over 40 mpg on an incredibly deep Pacers roster.

Can't wait to see where I can take him.

I just started playing with Jimmer Fredette but I haven't really accomplished anything yet. It's good fun

Bismack Biyombo is fun to play with.

AVG: 18.5 pts, 9.5 boards, 2 assists, 3 blks, 1 stl

Better than I thought.

How does this mode work exactly? Can I control all 30 teams? Is it essentially MP with a pre-existing NBA Player?

Yes, to the latter. It's My Player, but you pick up with a player that's already in the game's roster. Even if it's Jerry Stackhouse.

My one gripe is how when the game shows you starting fives with your game objectives, it uses the real life pictures for every player except for your guy. The player you control is represented by the face 2K generated for the game instead. Just somewhat irksome.

The things I like about the mode are that with My Player, as you're creating a player, you usually have a player in mind (i.e. I want to make a PF that can be as dominant and explosive as Blake Griffin), and in some ways it can feel like you're being very unoriginal.

With this mode you don't have to worry about any kind of customization, trying to make your player look and seem realistic, picking jump shot styles, etc. Instead of being like "I want to make a player that plays like Russell Westbrook," you can actually control him throughout his career. I love it.

I did T-Mac back when the game came out...took me only 15-20 games to get him to his Magic days stats...then my file was corrupted? To this day I do not know how it happened and I haven't done another Mac since LOL. I am just getting back into the game now and started with Evan turner..3 games in (1-2) averaging 15 points, 5 boards, 2 steals, and 1 assist LOL...hes fun as hell to play with! After I'm done with ET I am going to follow you and use Pauly George...6'10 TWO GUARD he will be so crazy to use and develop!

Has anybody had this happen to them?

After I beat the 2v2 Teammate challenge in Legends Showcase to unlock the legends for Create a Legend, I picked MJ. Afterwards, I wanted to create a Wilt legend, the legends rosters disappeared off the teams list. I am definetely not doing the 2v2 challenge again.

The DLC is buggy as hell. Just always be sure to back up your custom rosters and pretty much any data you don't want lost. Just delete the DLC and re download it.
