If you’re still playing NBA 2K17 PC, check out the recently released PROJ-ReBorn mod! The project, spearheaded by SiC2KK, includes 2021 season rosters, current jerseys, new shoes, and everything else required to bring the game up to date. In this week’s mailbag, we’re talking about slow motion dunks, signature moves, and other old school features that we miss and would love to see return. A new roster with fixed retro teams is also worth checking out on PlayStation 5. Elsewhere, preliminary plans for the next NLSC Tournament have begun, with the community voting on the game. We once again note that gameplay mechanics aren’t automatically good just because we’re able to get used to and master them. On the plus side, NBA 2K17 has been fun to dust off, and it leads us to reflect on one of our all-time favourite basketball video games. Unfortunately, even the franchise experience in NBA 2K22 hasn’t been appealing, due to the gameplay feeling dry. In fact, that’s a distinction that we can perhaps draw in our rules moving forward, because at a certain point, hacking M圜AREER for your own enjoyment does become fair game.Įpisode #405 of the NLSC Podcast is out now! Derek (aka Dee4Three) and I are your hosts for this weekly podcast that’s all about basketball gaming.Īn eye-catching statistic regarding the Lakers this year, and some other recent NBA observations, explain a lot about The Rec (and why we’re happy to avoid the online scene). However, there is a distinct difference between hacking to gain advantages in the connected modes of M圜AREER while the servers are still online, and messing around with an offline save years later. Here I am preaching fairness, while going against our own rules and community philosophy talk about double standards! If you’re grumbling, I can appreciate where you’re coming from.

To that end, recounting my experiences hacking a M圜AREER save probably seems quite hypocritical.

While we can understand wanting to stick it to a Triple-A publisher by hacking M圜AREER or MyTEAM for content and in-game currencies, it’s also upsetting the competitive balance, and ruining things for your fellow gamers. On top of that, there’s also the matter of fairness. Since we already walk a fine line with modding, we try to stay on the right side of both the law and our host’s terms of service, in order to avoid any unwanted repercussions. Here at the NLSC, our stance on hacking modes such as M圜AREER and MyTEAM has been the same as our policy on piracy: we don’t support it. This week, I’m tipping things off by recounting the fun I’ve recently had with hacking M圜AREER in older games.

We’re at midcourt, and the ball is about to go up…it’s Monday Tip-Off! Join me as I begin the week here at the NLSC with my opinions and commentary on basketball gaming topics, as well as tales of the fun I’ve been having on the virtual hardwood.
