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.

Someone else was saying it was broke for them too.

I'm working on Deadeye. Just surpassed 80 blocks and did not get eraser with my SF so Idk. Is there any way to not get volume shooter once you have it?

# 143 Magnus1959 @ 01/20/15 05:43 PM

Got Killer Crossover on my MJ Career.

Nope. You're stuck with it.

Interesting none badge tidbit. If you enter the name of real nba players in mycareer, they often do personalized animations. I've personally tried Michael Jordan and got iconic MJ gestures like "the shrug." I got the LeBron "chest pound" animation for him. It's pretty cool.

For Eraser & Tenacious Rebounder I didn't get the badges directly after the game when I reached 80+Blks/400+Rbds .. It wasn't til after the next game.

Also got deadeye just when I had given up on it. Nice couple of days there.

Do you mean just renaming your myplayer to MJ etc is enough to trigger gestures associated to that name?

Never ever had Corner specialist trigger and i've hit dozens of them, whereas the elusive Deadeye badge triggers all the time...

...on completely wide open jumpers anyway,ffs.

lol

Yeah. Just rename your guy

# 150 AfroThunder @ 01/20/15 11:24 PM

For corner specialist, in past games, you had to be completely open for it to activate. Like no one within 10 feet of you type of open. Lol

How many games did you take to get deadeye? Taking jumpshots all game gets old really fast. Not to mention CPU double teams me all game long, making it extra hard.

It was sooo boring . I only did 5 games on superstar ****** to get it but I shot over 50 times each game .

Still trying to get hop step and spin Layin smh

Just got those on my SF and it was brutal. Can we go ahead and eliminate the term "attempts" in the earn badge description. There's absolutely no way it's attempts. It was particularly brutal because I have no inside shooting until I unlock the upgrades. Do Badges like Primetime and Closer work in Rec? Anyone know? Also hot spots. Do they translate to neither Park or Rec, to just Rec, or both? Because I may just foul out from here on out. I'd like to get Scrapper and Hustle points but I'm not sure they are worth the trouble for a SF, Hustle points particularly.

I was just thinking that it should be makes instead of attempts but I still should have it.

Prime time I'm not sure. But closer definitely works at the rec . In fact you almost automatically warm up in clutch situations . Hot spots a Dev says translate to the rec and park. But to be honest I've noticed no difference .I heard scrapper is glitched and will not unlock not sure. Hustle points could be useful. As a SF don't be surprised to see yourself at PF position a good bit .

Hotspots don't work for me but for everyone else it does. I tend to make clutch 3s at the Park now since I got closer. Only played about 4 games with it but I made about 4-6 3s in those games.

Let me know how good deadeye is at the Park/Rec.

Getting Closer is not that hard TBH. It simple as what it says. Just score in the last %40 of a game. None of the games I had went to OT and I unlocked it after Alldtar Weekend. I barely score in the last quarter so it took longer. Ima go for this on my PG once I start play 2k again.

I've hit some pretty epic shots with it already lol. Fade ace or shot creator + deadeye is a crazy combo . Also if anybody is even standing around me I feel like it activates and I don't miss.

Yet I still miss too many open shots IMO

I would go for Fade ace but I'm still not sure it it works or driving leaners. But I'm definitely going for Shot Creator and Deadeye once I get back to 2k.

Lol still miss those wide open on the line shots but make shots over 3 guys.

I had my SG have the whole court as a hot spot. I shoot moving and standing 3s well but I definitely shoot deep and moving 3s better than spot up on the line 3s. Maybe the sickest move I've made in park is causing my defender to fall down with a double Crossover, Stepback and drained a half court 3 while taunting. Shot Creator is my favorite offensive badge. My favorite badge overall is without a doubt Brick Wall. I love stoning a guy with a hard screen.

I must 1st apologize to everyone in MyPark on X1 for my utter douchebaggery. Yes, I'm the guy celebrating EVERYTHING. But It's for the Swagger badge. I wish I had great news to report, but alas, I do not.

I celebrated so much the last couple days I've celebrated my team out of wins. Last night I thought I had it when after a game a weird loading/ save icon came up on my screen, but it was nothing.

I shall continue and say sorry in advance for celebrating my 10 foot elbow jumper when my team is down 7. If anyone has triggered the 'Swagger' badge, please let us know.

# 160 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 01/21/15 10:48 AM

Swagger is glitched too .

The funniest thing about those offensive badges is when u do a nice move and a guy tries to get back at u but he embarrasses himself
