What would you want from my team 2k18?

[kabamaru]

I love the mode but I believe this year was the worst in terms of released cards. Most of the cards we really wanted are not yet released and the game looks already outdated.
I lost all my appetite to play after I won PD Duncan.

For me there were 3 main factors that drove me away. 1)Supecards with everyone having 95 3s, even Centers, and the constant release of better cards.

2) New content should not cancel out all previously released content. It should be equally good but DIFFERENT. previous years had this worked out.

Young LBJ was more athletic, but worse shooter than heat LeBron etc. Now all newest cards are better in every aspect. Even Amethyst old Kobe is faster and has more vertical than young Kobe, and also rockets t Mac is as fast as Raptors.
3) players are not representing real life counterparts. T Mac in the game plays nothing like irl, Westbrook is a 3pt Lazer shooter etc

Now what I would like
1. Removal of badges. Players should be standard badged according to their skills. No more corner specialist and C&S for everyone

2. Return of the differentiation and not canceling out when new packs are released. It is a same to lock collections when 1 month later your award is useless

3. Get rid of moments card. Do a card update on all star break and that's it. No more lights out gasol because he happened to have 3/3 in a game.

4. All tiers in same difficulty level. PNO does it. NO reason why in a competitive mode your opponent gets an advantage on you just because you are better. Penalizing someone because he is better is highly frustrating.

5. Get rid of custom courts, and jerseys, which also make the game much more laggy plus all the embarrassing all white courts we see OR at least enable the option the away team to be able to choose to see generic courts /jerseys. This is feasible in other games such as PES.

6. BEST LOVED addition, add a separate sim ladder with overall cap. E.g one diamond, 2 amethysts, 2 rubies, 2 sapphires, 2 emeralds etc. This would make squad building much more unique, will require thinking of the player and tactical skills as well and improve gameplay for those who don't want to see 10 HOF in the floor all the time. If others still wish that, they can still play the current ladder

I know I am asking too much, but the game is losing crowd. Just remember how much more active was the forum in previous years

Tell us EXACTLY what each badge and attribute do.

Give us exact pack odds. It's federal law that they do so anyway. If we're spending real money to buy them, it's only ethical to let us know what we're buying. And that would force them to keep the odds the same for the entire cycle of the packs. None of this having better luck when you buy during prime time vs. at 8am.

No more locker codes. Or if you're going to have them, make them timed and make them random item locker codes with stated odds for various rewards.

Make the Dominations prestige-able. Each subsequent play through should be at a higher difficulty level, with a higher value reward. And that's in addition to the restricted MTO mode you mentioned.

- Leaderboards in MTO

- Repeatable rewards for beating seeds & MTO

- Same difficulty levels for all seeds and all teams no matter what

- Team stat tracking for your overall team statistics like how individual player stats are tracked.

A historic MTO mode where you only use historic players. This way we wont get inflated historic cards where rodman can even shoot 3s.

This mode will make MyTeam more special, where post game and big men are the focal point of the offense. Make this sim.

2k has been catering to the arcade 5out offense guys and its about time people play basketball and not a game.

Bring back restrictions, salary cap style. So say you get 100 points and if you put in a diamond player they cost 20 points. Makes team building something fun, not the 3 golds and all silvers of past 2k.

1. Update Playbooks
2. Allow you to scrimmage 5 v 5 in Myteam so you can practice your players tendencies in Game without a loss.
3. Give me option to play individual defense quarter court, 3/4 court or half court defense
4. Tell you as a player a synopsis of your game ex. you lost because of bad shot timing or mismatches, no adjustments etc. this allows you to know how to improve in the game.
5. stop penalizing good players who have mastered a player's animation and plays in the game my creating random results from the same button press.
6. give players the option to neutralize any and all cheese.

Basically these. I would like to see the Blacktop board and prestige awards updated monthly too.

I am not playing 2K next year but if I was that is what I would like see happen.

make it less pay to win/play. i just cant keep up with these lucky guys who were fortunate enough to capitalize off of 2ks mistakes.

im done spending money on vc for 2k. not just bcuz there is less than 5 months left in the game or bc of some vc boycott. i just remember a 2k before vc and how i have become the idiot i always laughed at, the guy who spends money on a game he already bought.

if i have to pay for myteam then i wont play it. simple as that. to think i spent $400 on myteam this year and countless hours and my best pull was amy davis (40k) and the fact that my collection is worth 20k mt....its not worth it.

i will always put this mode last in 2k. its too expensive and i think of how much i spent grinding ah and myplayers in orevious 2ks and its all for nothing.

1. Fix automatic losses
2. Fix mismatched difficulties in MTO

These 2 are non-negotiable and anything less than a complete fix means I'm out for 2K18 MyTeam.

Then comes a wish list of nice to haves that are not including general gameplay:
- Keep the same early release schedule (max 85 rated current players) and scale linearly to end of cycle. This probably means get rid of Intangibles because the 92 rated Harden was the start of this year's decline. Literally sit down and plan out the release schedule for the entire year and actually stick to it.
- Leaderboards and better stat tracking for online matches
- More interesting offline challenges, could be as simple as selectable difficulty level going from Pro to HoF will appropriate reward.
- Practice plays extended to MyTeam lineups
- Fix lazy code like Amethysts contracts worth more than Diamond, less badge slots for Ruby than Sapphire, etc
- Extra prestige options/rewards, give players a reason to play after receiving the final reward. Could be simple as a number indicating extra prestiges achieved after 3.
- Real team overall ratings and not ratings used by other game modes

Then comes the nice to haves but extremely unlikely because it doesn't generate 2K income:
- Allow more options for friendly matches including difficulty levels, quarter length, etc
- Forced lineup variability in online modes like restricted overall/tiers or head-to-head challenges with extra restrictions
