NBA 2K12: Association Mode

[ukballer]

Discuss Association mode here.

Tell stories of your team, how you're doing, the trades you've made etc. Ask for tips, advice.

I thought i would jam with this game a bit, but you can't create a league that includes legends. You can't mix it, can't create teams to include them... I had mighty fun with NBA 2k4, i guess 2k is a bunch of realistic *******. What's the ****ing point, so you can only play with legends on quick game mode, are you serious? I'll figure it out somehow like always, but really, **** you.

You have to unlock all the teams before you can add them to your Association.

[PrimeJohnnyDepp]

You can play with legends in association by creating custom teams, signing them, and then you can modify their roster. Fill normal rosters with them, or run a fantasy draft prior to association. Fun.

I just dropped 29 points with Kobe in the second half (22 in the fourth quarter).

I might start a franchise with the Nets later. I wanted to play as a good team so I can get used to the game.

Wouldn't it make more sense if we started during the 2011 NBA draft for the association, then went into FA and stuff.

I mean, it might not make sense, but it'd be extremely useful.

So for my Nets association, I made trades to get Kenyon Martin and Richard Jefferson. Probably not very smart moves, but it takes me back to the early 2000s when the Nets were nasty.

Nostalgia is a powerful thing.

Wow I love, dropping fadeaway and post shots with Kobe.. They have really perfected his post shot!

[PrimeJohnnyDepp]

Are there any codes for unlocking legendary teams? I get bored so much, and can't defend the ice sliding fa66otry. It's just 2k, with it's ice sliding fa66otry, but then it's 6 second to shoot right, i try to get it to the best man, and i'm 27 seconds too late to shoot due to fa66otry. I just want those legends, give me my legends and my league with legends.

are any of you having trouble with this mode being buggy as all hell?

I cant get it to load draft classes, team have records that don't add up, and when I put in classic teams it gives them their real ages so the dudes are all in their 50s and retire right away. Steve Kerr won MVP with 4 points per game.

the my player mode keeps crashing on me as well.

[Maniak]

Wow ken, I haven't come across any of those problems(then again, I rarely play 2k12), but they sound pretty bad...

I couldn't get draft classes when I tried. I just thought nobody bothered.

I havent heard anything like that anywhere.

[ClutchBucketz]

Ain't heard anything like that but i haven't played with classic players yet..

I also am doing a Nets association.

- traded Outlaw and the rest of the crummy contracts/players
- signed DeAndre Jordan to a long deal as a roleplayer center
- signed Sherron Collins as my backup PG
- developing Damion James as an all-around starter
- signed O.J. Mayo in free agency to a 5-year deal
- signed Ryan Anderson as a roleplayer
- traded #17 pick in draft for Arron Afflalo

PG: Williams/Collins
SG: Mayo/Morrow
SF: James/Afflalo
PF: Humpheries/Anderson
C: Lopez/Jordan

After plowing through 16 legend games, and starting up Association, i see you can't actually take any legendary team, and you can't play in a league with them.

****ing amateurs, idiots & wankers.

[PrimeJohnnyDepp]

So i made many custom teams, thinking i could trade legends and fill teams with them, have an epic, epic power league. No. You can't trade players from a custom team. It pains me to know, someone programmed exatly that text. So no power Bulls, power Lakers, power Celtics, power Blazers, going at each other in a legendary league. No. Text says so.

What can i say. I'll never touch your product again. You're a bunch of loosers 2k. Untalented idiots, you have a month of celebratory wanking and spending it on hookers for facesitting and feet licking left, then you must go back and again try to appease worst pale losers with your product.

[ClutchBucketz]

There's a way around that.. Takes a little bit more effort but it's doable..

Although i agree that 2k should just let their product be customisable..:cheers:
