MyGM is getting boring.

[Coltsnpacers]

I've been playing MyGM ever since release and I never got passed two seasons without restarting. It's the same old shtick where I get bored playing games and all I want to do is sim.

Does anyone have a solution for a better experience? Because I've tried everything from rebuilding a bad team to continuing a winning team with the Spurs.

I'm trying to rebuild the Magic (Magic are my team in real life, and who I use anytime I play), but I can't even win a damn game and it's making me real frustrated.

One of the things I've realized that makes me get disinterested is when unrealistic trades are mad. In my original GM I traded Wade and Bosh and ended up with some crazy rookie loaded team with LeBron. I realized it got boring real quick after I brought in a new team. My current one I kept them (at least for the season) then tried to bring some back, but I guess subconsciously I felt better letting Wade go for wanting 16-17 mil while only being an 83. I tried to bring Bosh back on his terms, but I guess he got a better deal. All in all I've realized the best ways to keep it fun is to keep it realistic.

Yea this kind of stuff kills realism and makes you ask yourself why your playing any more. They need some top programmers to develop near perfect AI trade logic and GM management. Other games struggle at this, MLB the Show Cubs traded their top prospect Baez for Yankees Gardner on my road to the show. (cubs were below .500, so it couldn't be viewed as a win now move) Right then and there I stopped playing.

Gotta have good AI outside of just gameplay.

No doubt. It's definitely getting better, but it's a long way from finished.

Its all a moot point if they actually give you more administrative control. Most of us aren't interested in a scripted Association mode.

Even if you don't want to go so far as to call it scripted its still channeled in one direction and you have no control over how the league is shaped.

I can't think of any scenario where less control over the league is somehow better. 2K clearly sees microtransaction and the money generated by VC as far more important than delivering a game the fans want.

I think good draft classes are essential, the rubbish draft classes 2k expects us to use just ruin the experience.

Took me until season 3 to start winning with the Magic. Though my way to play is not to really make many trades or big time signings. What they have in the start is already pretty decent in my opinion. Relying on Oladipo, Afflalo, Harkless, Harris and Vucevic for most of your minutes seems like a good plan. Nelson is a good player in real life but when rebuilding the Magic he kind of gets in the way.

It's not really scripted, just lacks user control and maybe the opposite problem is consistency. Other teams don't seem to mind too much about having the right amount of decent players per position.

That said when it goes right it can be pretty interesting. In my game the Heat stayed together, Melo joined CP3 and Griffin on the Clippers and Kevin Love ensured the Spurs would continue to be dangerous in the future as well.
