As a Mavs fan I´m very happy seeing most of the players you´ve selected. Most of them have given me a lot of joy, and will hopefully continue to do so. Very excited for this series, loved it last year
hugeeee!!!! from what I've seen, the rookies kinda suck (at least in their first year) so I've been trying to figure out getting more realistic rookie production
Also, I've been using 55-60 sim difficulty and only watching games 1,4, and 7 in the playoffs (while simcasting the rest) and in my experience its yielded some great playoff series
*suggestion* To add more storylines, in like "filler episodes," you could commentate on games that are not mexico city, maybe on like a team, where a rivalry may be brewing
During the sim there's a bug with rotations ... coaches won't put players in the game nor follow your set rotation...temp fix is change the coach rotation settings to fatigue but overall it's broken right now
I started doing this CPU vs CPU and I developed a center named grant Paxon he started off bad but turned into a beast after 2-3 years it is fun to see someone you drafted becomes the best player in league 💪🏾
You mentioned having done Madden, 2K (obviously), college football... and... "the Show." I checked your uploaded series section and discovered a short live Tigers series. Will we see more MLB content from you? I had an idea to make it interesting... Create a team. But make it a challenge. Example backstory, which could pattern potential real life events: The Rays have finally had enough of St. Petersburg and their joke of a stadium. As they have threatened to do for years, the Tampa Bay Rays walk! They have become the Carolina Alleycats (That's what I chose. Perhaps you may chose a return of the Montreal Expos? Unfortunately, the move voided most of their player contracts. Nearly all of their players have moved on to other teams. All that remained were some of the newest and youngest members of the team, within their minor league system. (In team edit, before starting the league, trade off nearly everyone to other teams, prioritizing their team need. A prefect trade would be: You have a 90 OR CF, their best outfielder is a 76. They also have a 21y/o, 63 OR CF with B potential. However, this CF is buried behind 3 other fielders and will not likely ever see a MLB game until he's 26! He is your perfect starting AA starting CF! Another? You have an 89 OR SP, they have a 68 RP with 74 stamina. For some reason, you think this RP would be a great starter, but he's never been given the chance. EVERY PLAYER on your team, from A - MLB, you treat like this.) The new team, for all intensive purposes, is an expansion franchise. You are targeting players you feel disserve... 1. A second chance. Possibly have something there, but were never given a proper chance. Maybe they played a season or two at the MLB level and have since spent the last couple years in the minors. This is where you will find most of your 24-30 y/o players. 2. A real chance. These players are likely to never be given a chance without you. IYO, there is a perfectly good young shortstop, but he's buried behind a 24 y/o, 90+OR MLB starter, a 25 y/o 80+OR back up and three other, under 30, SS who are all 70+ OR. This is where you will find most of your 18-24 y/o players. 3. A last chance. These are the aging veterans who have either been cut from their teams or relegated to the minors. I don't mean they are now AAA and will be the first one called up, in the event of an injury. I mean, you feel they may NEVER see another MLB game again... BUT... you also feel they still have something left to give for another season or two. Some of these players MAY be better suited elsewhere. There's a 31 y/o C, who's blocking skills are not good, but he does have some wheels, a great arm and very good fielding skills? Maybe he'd be good at 3rd or RF. I'm looking at Taylor Ward here. The Red Sox have a guy, playing back-up at LF, who used to play 3rd, but was never used properly? I'm looking at you, Chris Arroyo! A great C, with very good potential, who is now 30, and never given a chance to play. Brett Sullivan would be a GREAT C for your new team! The point is... in the editor - before starting the league - trade away or give away almost everyone from the team you wish to eliminate from the league. Rebuild the team with has-been's, never-was and may never be's. Give players their 2nd, last and possibly only chance to play. No one on the team is above a 75 (or 70, if you really want to make it tough). "A potentials" are permissible, provided you feel they would not get a fair chance on their current team or are a part of the FA list. Please note, changing a player's position can have very noticeable effects on a player's OR - especially with RP -> SP. A 68 OR RP with high stamina, swapped to a SP (and that is the only thing you changed) could end up being a 76 OR starter! On my team, I found a 31 y/o 74 OR RP with 81 stamina. He was going to be my LRP. I checked his career stats and it looked like he once was a SP a few years back. Since, he had been relegated to the AAA, for a team who was stacked with top notch pitchers. Given I needed decent pitching, I was thinking he could he my #2 or 3 behind my one and only 75OR on the team. So I changed RP to SP, clicked "save" and went back to my roster to discover Stratton was now an 81 OR! Given he was acquired as a 74 and did not become above a 75 until AFTER he joined the Alleycats....He became our Ace! In the minors, the best future ( 'A' potential) players we had were... SP Mark Leiter (a real player) SP Scott Sandoval (The reincarnation of Sandy Kaufax!) 1B Frank Kelly (Think Frank Thomas - with a beard - and a LOT bigger. HR hitting beast!) SS Ozzie Vaccaro (Good contact, no power, decent speed, AMAZING Defense!) CF Peyton Wilson (Good contact, low power, 90+ speed, great fielding) LF Travis Dawkins (5-tool future star!) Have fun with it - if you decide to do it - Remember, for the most part, you are giving guys a chance to play, who may not get that chance otherwise.
2k25 really fulfills my dream tho i haven't bought it yet. Jersey swaps, fiba, not only in my career, but also my NBA/my league. As a myLeague player, I thank god this happens
So you are not going with MyGM, only MyNBA. Still not understanding if they are linked or not. Seen some starts on MyGM and it looks corky. Only way I play is CPUvsCPU, but intend to do it on PC. More accustom to Madden lately but normaly a Manager/Coach playing guy. This series looking cool. Have you tried out the different Eras the game got ?
Haven’t tried the other Eras but have kept up with KOT4Q’s videos and have seen them. Only reason I’m hesitant, especially with the Steph Era, is that the rosters seem pretty incomplete
@@StumpyMcGumpy I'm sure downloadable rosters and correct drafts will soon be ready for PC. Those will surely include all the missing players from each ERA.
Just wondering stumpy do u ever update the arena and jersey at all I for one did a bird era added 6 teams and by the time I got to 2000s or somewhere near 2010 I ended up updating the jersey
Stumpy please download actual draft classes instead of the auto generated and download historic draft classes it will make your vids way more interesting
Stumpy, quick question during played NBA Cup game at home, is th3 court all black for you since you're using an expansion team? I've tried 3 builtin expansion teams and every home game the court is all black no lines
@@xny3551 not sure then, I think it mainly has to do with having the max players you can sign on your roster. At least any time I’ve fixed it it’s was usually by signing max number of players.
@@StumpyMcGumpy yh srry i was confused but i tried out the sliders and the on ball defense is insnane in this game, players cant get past halfcourt without getting harrassed smh
While I’m a fan of Cane, I wasn’t aware he had a monopoly on playing CPU vs CPU especially on 2K, or that he had a monopoly on using UA-cam’s Audio Library music, which is where I take all of my music from. I’ve used over 100 different songs in my videos, there’s bound to be some overlap there
@@StumpyMcGumpy he doesn’t do 2K he had one series a while ago it wasn’t cpu cpu he does that for CFB and madden and a hybrid of playing and simming mlb the show
He normally do... Maybe he did it to prevent the other team picking every high value player that in theory would be protected in real life... But overall these series been fire and entertaining to me for the past 4 yrs can't wait to see who he draft this yr
he'll probably add another one after the first season and do their draft for them so they don't have wacky roster construction that the ai normally has
I am very excited for this series! All the terrible jumpshots got fixed so gameplay will be smoother.
I got my own series adding new ones soon hopefully you can check it out and lmk🫶🏽
"WE LOVE YOU STUMPY" we all said in unison
As a Mavs fan I´m very happy seeing most of the players you´ve selected. Most of them have given me a lot of joy, and will hopefully continue to do so. Very excited for this series, loved it last year
those jerseys are nice but there should definitely be some gold in there
So excited for the new series! Last series was awesome! Keep it up stumpy!
hugeeee!!!! from what I've seen, the rookies kinda suck (at least in their first year) so I've been trying to figure out getting more realistic rookie production
I got my own series different styles but hopefully you can check em out and lmk
I fell off watching the last series but we are back now 🔥
I Been waiting for this!!
One note for the jerseys - the number on the back should probably be bigger. Excited for this new series man!
Already fixed!
2:54 WOOOO THATS FIREEE
Also, I've been using 55-60 sim difficulty and only watching games 1,4, and 7 in the playoffs (while simcasting the rest) and in my experience its yielded some great playoff series
México city is a cool idea! Excited for this series
Logo is absolute 🔥looking forward to this! ¡VAMOS! 🇲🇽
3:43 one time kawhi was unprotected bruh fr
i’m so hyped for this series man….
Time for me to watch 10 episodes then stop watching for a while and get lost at episode 100 and not know whats going on
U predicted me
*suggestion*
To add more storylines, in like "filler episodes," you could commentate on games that are not mexico city, maybe on like a team, where a rivalry may be brewing
Here we go baby
Great work stumpy
During the sim there's a bug with rotations ... coaches won't put players in the game nor follow your set rotation...temp fix is change the coach rotation settings to fatigue but overall it's broken right now
I was a late comer to the Neptunes series so I never actually managed to finish it. Keen to be on board early with this one.
Let’s go, I hope you don’t draft another tiny point guard as your first pick lol although I enjoyed jovi
"Viva Las Mexico" ~from the movie "Blue Streak"
LOVE the city connects! VIVA LA MEXICO!!
I started doing this CPU vs CPU and I developed a center named grant Paxon he started off bad but turned into a beast after 2-3 years it is fun to see someone you drafted becomes the best player in league 💪🏾
Firee I got my own series hopefully you can check em out and lmk
Very excited for the series drop the next episode
10:53 yeah 2k does that all the time
Excited to watch this new series. Be sure to be active during the trade deadline to help with the team's future.
Why no second expansion team?
I wondered that 2 I thought he was gonna add a Las Vegas or sonics since there rumored to be a team

I don’t know what y’all think but he definitely should only watch the farewell game and then straight to the draft
Can you do Montreal?
Hey Stumpy, did you set up mynba setyings imcluding the contract and progession sliders before starting?
Contracts yes, keeping tabs on progression sliders but haven’t adjusted them yet
finally you using black unis
Btw im using your team share as one of expansion teams

maybe a little change up to the away uniforms, just a little plain.

Thank you. I submitted a ticket with pics to 2k support
Just tried the sliders and the league percentages have to be adjusted every one damn near shoot over 50%
Yeah as always sliders probably need to be changed early on
How can I find your sliders online in game?
LET'S GOOOOOOO
How can i send and call up players to the gleague? There is no option on the rosters menu 😢
If you can't call them down sign 2 players on 2-way contracts, then call them up from g-league. should be able to send the player you want now.

Keep nba in North America
Please do a regular MyNBA instead of expansion teams. Even a fantasy draft sounds more enticing
A fantasy draft but instead of controlling a certain team he acts as the commissioner of the whole league would be fun to see
Can’t you remove teams in 2k25 now? Please remove all teams down to 12 left…
first
lets go!
Will you add another expansion team to the league? it feels odd with an uneven 31 teams. thanks for the videos🤝🏻🫡
