I specifically logged on here 2 try 2 get an answer 2 this very question. I usually make a 6'3"/6'4" PG and with Michael B Jordan'a character, I was wondering if his height/position is dictated by the position u make ur myplayer? I don't want 2 be forced 2 play SG like in past 2K's so for example; if I design my player and based on my specifications, Justice becomes like a 6'6" SG or 6'7" SF, that would be dope. I feel like this is a mode for US and every new feature they wanna stick in there should revolve around us as the main focus of the mode. Any insight would be appreciated.

anyone notice they have early 90's bulls vs t wolves on in the back ground ? Mayabe from 92-93 season. Thought it was strange because of lic deals with players.

Which is a shame because I'd much rather be able to scan a picture of a face.

Whoa, great catch!

I think the Justice Young position will be the similar to what they did with Jackson Ellis. They will make him a position thats similar. If you make a PG, he'll will be a SG; if you make a SG, he'll be a PG. If you make a C, he'll be a PF; if you make a PF, he'll be a C. I think it'll be something like that.

My career is gonna be awesome this year.... looking forward to the duo aspect of the game.... "Orange Juice" tho....? Hmmmm.... does the foreign guy become "Vodka"....? And they form a Big 3....? Just kidding...looking forward to a lot of my career this year!

# 90 Rip4ever @ 09/07/16 04:40 PM

Could work.

I am going to try and catch a Trump event and see if I can get a facescan of him. Then the whole Orange Juice and Prez thing will make perfect sense.

I'm Orange and he is Juice, but you can just call me Prez.

My thoughts exactly. I know the majority must like it though or they wouldn't do it I guess, but when I saw that trailer my reaction was just "ewwww". You can't even call that MyCareer, more like EveryonesCareer. I hate how the stories will make you out to be a superstar like right off the bat, even when your like a 68 Ovr scrub lol. At least make players earn their minutes and rep, don't just make everyone seem like an instant basketball god.

Then if all 3 of you are on the floor together, you could be called the "Vodka Screwdriver"?

Maybe you aren't quite seeing how this in theory will make people go out and buy VC so their guy is as good as the hype?

They make the story for the guy they want you to make. They want you to drop some cash on a 200kVC. The only reason grinding for VC is even in there is to tone down on people screaming P2W. Expect the evolution to be making earning VC harder and adding more fluff VC sinks like shoes/clothes/tats/and probably decent hairstyles soon.

The place I am surprised is that they haven't made more of that stuff. I expected them to have it so you could have an apartment that can get bigger and bigger and filled with more and more junk. Maybe some cars that would show up in cutscenes. Not to mention more bling and crap you could wear.

From the aspect of creating revenue streams that is the obvious way to go.

MySimCareer.

I really can't tell enough from it to decide if I'll like it or not. Definitely going to try it out but I'm worried it'll be kinda corny. Personally, I don't even need a storyline. I just want to play the game.

# 96 extremeskins04 @ 09/07/16 06:03 PM

My god it was a trailer. They didn't want to spoil alot and just wanted to give their fans more of a taste of the characters, that was it. People see a bunch of cutscenes in a trailer and they got nuts and scream "OMG no gameplay, no options, no choices, just cutscenes like last year!"

This kind of thought process makes me want to throw myself off a tall building.

Once again 2k stupidly places the MyPlayer in the current draft. I am sick and tired of being drafted in the same spot as someone else and that person still being on the team. I guarantee the guy in the trailer was drafted number 4 and Dragon Bender (the foreign guy in the trailer) who was drafted number 4 in real life is still on the team. Such a stupid design decision year after year. Just fast forward a year and create a generated draft class. Not hard at all. Not looking forward to going number 1 and somehow teaming up with ben simmons smh

And you know this is how it's going to work cause you already own and played the game, correct?
