    VAWereWolf65's 2k18 Fictional Draft Classes (For Xbox One)


    Hello everyone. For those of you that followed my classes last year, I am returning once again with a bigger and better project. These classes will be far more realistic this year and will reflect a sim-based gameplay while also keeping the game fun and enjoyable. Instead of writing a long, boring novel about my plans for this year's classes, I figured I'd just dive in and hit a few of the basic questions you guys might have.

    What do you mean when you say "sim but fun"?
    When I say this, I mean you will be getting realistic numbers from players while not taking away from the fact that this is a video game and it's meant for fun and for your enjoyment. Player's stats will reflect that of average NBA rookies and players. For example, you won't see any rookies coming into the league putting up 30+ points a game because that's just simply unrealistic. The only rookies in the past 10 years to average over 20+ points per game are Kevin Durant, Blake Griffin, Joel Embiid and Tyreke Evans (Yes, Tyreke Evans lol). That being said, if you get a rookie from one of my classes who is averaging over 20+ a game, its a very rare and special thing.

    How many classes can we expect this year?
    I have 5 classes guaranteed for this year. Depending on how many downloads those classes get, I might extend that number to anywhere between 7-10 classes. I'm not asking for downloads so I don't want you to think that I am, but the reason I say this is because I simply don't want to put all of this time into creating 10 classes, when only 15 people end up downloading them.

    How do you rate your rookies?
    I rate my rookies based off of the Official 2k Roster and off of other rookies in the game. What I mean by that is, you'll see some 80-85 overall rookies but they're fairly rare. Most of the lottery picks will be in the 68-79 overall range. Also, just because you get a rookie in this 80-85 overall area, doesn't mean they will become some 99 overall Demigod. They might be an 85 overall but their potential might only be an 86. You just have to sort of trust me with it lol. Numbers will still be realistic, and if you look at the rookies in 2k every year, you'll see theres almost always rookies who are rated in the 80s (Lonzo Ball and Markelle Fultz are 80s, KAT was an 86, Porzingis was an 80, and so on).

    Closing thoughts
    For people that care about storylines and whatnot, I suggest subscribing or closely following this thread once I actually start posting. I won't be posting right away because I still have to actually make the classes and storylines and all that good stuff. Thank you, and I hope to see you back here in the near future.

      Will you be making these in line with the SimWorld ratings or official 2K ratings?

        Official 2k roster, but the way simworld rates players isn't all that different from the official 2k roster. The only major things that might stick out at you are a few attributes like standing/driving layups, contact dunk and vertical. If it's something that's really bothersome, it'd probably take less than 5 minutes to just go through on quick edit and bump stuff up or down to where you want it

            What if you talk to the simworld guys, maybe you can collaborate with them, and provide sort of "filler" classes with them in between the release of their classes (assuming they were ok with that).

            This way we could get a solid 10-15 classes between the two of you, and not have to wait till spring of next year.

                Well that's sort of the reason why I make classes. A lot of people use SimWorld, but there aren't that many draft class makers for Xbox One. Depending on how many classes SimWorld makes, there will probably be a good 10-20 sim-based classes spread out all through the year.

                  Not only that but I'm pretty sure theyre releasing a spreadsheet with rating and tendency guidelines so everyone can adjust custom draft classes or generate classes for use with it.

                    Breaking News:

                    The #1 High School Basketball Player in the nation, John Foster, Opts to not attend college. He will sign a 1 year, $1.8 Million contract with Alba Berlin in Germany. After finishing his senior year at Martin Luther King High School in Detroit, Foster had a 3.6 GPA and was getting offers from schools like Duke and Kentucky. You'd think that the big man's choice would obviously be to attend college with offers from such prestigious programs, but he stated his reasoning for such a bizarre decision in an interview earlier today.

                    "You take one bad hit or maybe land awkwardly off a dunk, tear an ACL, and your career is over" Foster said. "My family comes before anything, and taking care of them is my biggest priority. I can't do that if i'm wasting my time playing for a college while I could be making money overseas and getting an education at the same time." The kid isn't wrong, not only will he be making nearly $2 million at the very young age of 17, he'll have his living expenses paid, he'll still be getting some sort of education, and he'll get a chance to experience life outside of the United States.

                    Foster put up some of the best numbers in recent history, averaging 26.7 PPG, 18.3 RPG, 6.8 APG and 6.3 BPG during his senior year. The power forward's biggest strength's are his rebounding, defense and post game, but is a very complete player all around. At 6'9" and 206 pounds with a 38.5 inch vertical, Foster still has a lot of frame to fill out before he can compete with the big men of the NBA, but he still has plenty of time to grow and mature before the draft next summer.

                      November 1st:‬

                      ‪With the season rapidly approaching, let’s take a look at the top recruited high school players who will be freshmen this season:‬


                      We all know John Foster made the mind boggling decision to play overseas as the #1 prospect in the world, but so far it seems to be paying off. Early last month, Foster and Alba Berlin played an exhibition match against the San Antonio Spurs during the NBA's preseason, in which Foster dropped 16 points and hauled in 9 rebounds in 30 minutes of play. This was a great debut for him and I think he'll continue to be the #1 prospect in the world, despite playing overseas.

                      With Foster out of the picture, that leaves Tyreke Jennings as the #1 freshman in the nation. Jennings is a very strong and athletic player for a guard, and he has a great three point shot too. However, his best quality is probably his defense. He uses his strength and quickness well to stay on his man, and while he isn’t a pure point guard‪,‬ I can see him developing into a great two way player further down the line.

                            As usual, I am in. I look forward to using your classes. NBA2k class is ridiculous as usual with guys with 99 potential and overall a 86 at 21 years old. You would think it's 1982 again. but there aren't as many useless players anymore thank goodness 2k fixed that.

                              Yea man. Plan on doing it like I did last year, but more realistic. My classes last year were directed more towards just having some fun players to use on your teams, but this year players will be a lot more realistic. Probably gonna have some players in the low 80s like last year, but not in every class and you won’t be seeing 99 potentials.
