The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
I ain't play it yet and won't for months if at all before the next one comes out but do they still punish you for making a powerforward that's 6'10" like they did with the last two?

I have a 7 foot driving and finishing shot creator center that I love. Only problem you'll run into is the bigger bulkier centers are extremely difficult to stop by the basket

My 6'6 Passing and Ball Handling Sharpshooter is just starting to come into his own around 68/69 OVR. Silver Catch and Shoot and Silver Limitless Range help him do what he's supposed to do. I finally got him some Pro dribbles so now it doesn't feel like he's in molasses when I try to set someone up.

So the unfortunate thing is that badges are a necessity and not a option. They may not affect your ratings but they obviously add to your shot probability. Without them that shot probability feels closer to 0% than anything. fukk them for tying the free throw rating into the badge. If anything it should be connected to your mid range since that's technically what it is.

And fukk them further for ridiculous prices in the stores. Today was my second time going into the shops since I started and man... 1500 VC for a fukking shirt? That's 3 games for one damn piece of clothing. And the nerve to charge 2000 for a pair of funky ass jeans. Somebody needs to burn the neighborhood down:demonic:

Still a little cautious right now about putting too much into him for him to disappear again :francis:

I enjoy the grind for leveling up but I hate the low compensation I feel like I'm playing Destiny

The initial grind is just more frustrating than anything. Even when I made the starting lineup that shyt wasn't fun. Blown layups, tossing more bricks than a stonemason, that's enough to make you regret the game and it's a shame because we know the potential is there. After you have some badges only then does it start to become fun.

I don't believe so. Punish you in what way?

In 2k16 your stats took a noticeable hit when you went past 6'9", most noticeably in the speed and stamina department with 2k17 straight up showing you the huge red arrows and the capped stats when you built your player.

Was near impossible from what I remember to create anything close in athleticism and stamina to a Blake Griffin or prime Amare Staudemire at 6'10".

Nothing against Kenneth Faried and Draymon Green and all but I find it absurd that they pretty much let you from 2k17 the minute you go past 6'9" your shyt will be capped to average and below in regards to shooting, ball handling and stamina.

Couple that and virtually no way to improve your fatigue throughout the season, especially when you become the superstar player everyone aspires to be and you playing full played 42 minute games with no rest or way to sub yourself out and you got a player running played burn fumes which Pissed me the fukk off royally.

Don't go the gym. Start a new season. Same slow character who can't jump to block shyt after the second half. I ain't had a good pf experience with this shyt since the one with LeBron on it.

What's his speed and stamina looking like? Cause as much as I wanna just dunk on fools and pull Rebs, I seriously can't invest another calendar year playing this shyt in career mode with an almost always tired player at PF with limited stamina and abysmal ball handling.

I cam deal with not being able to execute a cross over to save my life but couple that with the slow speed...I'm leading the league in turnovers while trying to simply back folk down and getting stripped. :why:
