Earning Badges in NBA 2K15

04:12 PM - January 13, 2015 by Steve_OS

Having trouble earning particular badges in NBA 2K15? NBA 2K Producer Zach Timmerman has just sent us the requirements for each one of them.

Key Notes

Simulating games will not count towards earning badges. You must play the games to meet the requirements.
Only one badge can be earned in MyPark / Jordan Rec Center (Swagger).
Badges can be earned by playing on any difficulty.
Unless specifically noted, any position can earn any badge.
Unlike what many believe, having the Cool and Collected or Volume Shooter badges will not prevent you from getting �hot� (which is required to earn Unfazed and Microwave).
Getting ejected or fouling out of a game will not impact your ability to earn badges.
For the ankle breaker dribble move badges, like Killer Crossover, you�ll generally have better luck earning them if you try the moves when you�re within 25 feet of the basket.
When earning a badge requires you to meet the requirements �in a single season�, it means just that. You cannot carry over stats or games played to the next season to earn the badge.

Me too! Plus it would be interesting to be able to see what badges are applied while playing in the park (while they appear during normal games)

What other alternatives can there be for earning badges?

Play on either SS or HOF. I got tenacious on my PF and C in their rookie seasons.

I like it. I think it's great. They just need to give us a progression bar/list for them.

Thanks bro fnally got it.

I got one more question. I'm a SG already toward the end of my season, just started the playoffs and am trying to get Brick Wall before the seasons over.

I just unlocked Screen Outlet in my last game...does this mean Brick Wall should be following soon? It's supposedly 100 good screens which I thought was what Brick Wall was but I guess not. Do you guys think I'll be able to get it before the playoffs are over?

If I recall it didn't take that long for me to get it on my SF. It took about 8-10 games at most, set over 10 screens a game though.

It took me quite a few games between SO & BW. I'd say over 50. Keep in mind, I was going after other badges during that time. I finally focused on BW on my 2nd season and got it within 25/ 30 games. Try playing 12 minute 1/4ers and milk each series to 7 games.

I've had a very heated debate as to what actually constitutes as a screen that counts towards BW so I won't even restart that. But I suggest focusing only on Brick Wall and not trying to mix something else in offensively.

Ok will keep at it. Do you happen to know how long it was apart from when you got one then the other? I'm going for good on ball screens which it seems like that's what the guide says to get. I am getting set screen for scores too though.

Without dragging out an old nonsense argument, I found 'Set Screen for Score' worked best for me. No matter what some may say, it's clearly still a screen and it definitely counts towards BW. The trick is being on a team with a player that will try and score off every one of your screens. I've had some players pass up open shots. I'm jealous of people who play with Kobe or Anthony.

I can't remember the exact numbers. With my SG I unlocked BW quickly, between 15-20 games. With SF it took the longest, around 40-50 games. PF was pretty quick, around 20 games and Center was around 25-30. Just make it your focus.

Does anybody have any tips on getting Scrapper?

I've got 2 loose ball saves and need 2 more it's probably the hardest badge on here. Sheesh.

# 570 P234thetruth @ 07/24/15 07:16 PM

I got one more question when going for Unfazed...do the hot for 4min durations have to be in different games? I know it's 3x total within 15 games. I got it once in one game, then in my second game I got it 2 more times (hot for 4min but apart from each other).

I didn't get the badge though. I'm assuming it needs to be in separate games as I know for a fact I got it 3x but 2 were in one game.

Any help would be appreciated.

Did it take the full 15 games being played (and you unlocked perhaps before that time)? I know I got it 3x but like I said 2 were in one game. It's crazy because after that 3rd time I now cannot get 2 rings at all. I'm 6 games in curious if it'll unlock after my 15th played game.

UNLOCK DEADEYE:
Settings; All-star 12min Quarters, Michael Jordan quick release

Just stop 15 feet or further from the basket while dribbling and shoot only when your defender puts their hand up/in your face.

do not do the "walk into defender and grabbing animation" method.

# 572 Magnus1959 @ 08/21/15 09:58 AM

I have multiply careers but don't have Deadeye on any because I either miss and have the ball stolen right away so it's hard to commit.

if you max out your Jump shot, it'll make it easier. if you play on low settings I.g rookie, then instead of only needing to take 100 contested shots, you'll have to take 1,000.

Edit: To add to my previous comment.

you can play on lower minutes, but I say/recommend 12Mins due to being able to have more possessions/being able to take more shots
