The allure of improving your player, earning endorsements, interacting with teammates, and spending currency on new gear is strong. These quibbles aside, M圜areer is once again the best offering of its kind in sports games. After putting 20 hours into the gym activities – which offer great variety, by the way – I still don’t understand the logic of when skill points do and don’t get awarded. Unfortunately, the path to upgrading these is needlessly opaque even if you shoot free-throws for 20 minutes, you may not raise your rating a single point. Earning currency via games played and endorsement deals is still the way to upgrade your primary skills, but certain critical skills like stamina and free-throw shooting can only be improved by grinding at the gym. Regardless of which approach you take, you need to put many hours into the practice mode to round out your player. Performing well in M圜areer is paramount to improving the skills of your player, who once again starts with an absurdly low rating in a shameless ploy to get users to take the easy path and spend money on the virtual currency.
Controlling two players at the same time almost feels too empowering lethal give-and-gos are unleashed at the push of a button, and Young rarely misses an open look. Your chemistry develops through cutscenes and hours of practice at the gym, and if you play off each other enough during a game, you unlock the ability to take control of the tandem. Together, you strive to become the next great NBA tandem, following in the footsteps of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. Regardless of which organization drafts you, your team’s rookie class includes an overlooked gem named Justice Young, played by the talented Michael B. For better and worse, NBA 2K17’s popular M圜areer mode looks past the glitz and the glamour to focus on the practical side of being a professional athlete.Ī year after the Spike Lee debacle, M圜areer returns with a new narrative penned by screenwriter Aaron Covington (Creed). But underneath this veneer of the charmed life are thousands of hours spent in gyms perfecting shooting strokes, honing dribbling moves, and sculpting physiques to withstand the rigors of an 82-game season. Elite NBA players enjoy the 24/7 spotlight of national television, lucrative endorsement deals, and even occasional crossovers into Hollywood.
