Season 4 details

[Commondjapan]

The card art for those regular elites looked pretty bland. What’s up with Kawhi and AD being on the wrong teams?

Are those boosts at 81 and 85 team boost or position boost?

They're just for that player but some x factors can give temporary team boosts

 

[Stewie309]

It takes 4,400 shards and 25,400 star power to get a superstar to 85 the fact you need to train an overall 3 times is BS

Isn't it similar in 2k?..
They have to make the grind more painful don't they.. SMH

Which 2k they seem to have a million NBA games (really only 4 but still)

The mobile one I guess.. I remember trying it and having to train multiple levels.. or maybe that's another game..

I didn't play it much but yeah it was the same idea

 

[teamduncan]

Anyone has an idea of the conversion? Ie is it better to say sell my elite lvl tokens or keep it as gold or keep it as elite?
How are coins converted? It seems they just give you a lump sum

 

[ramizi]

1. So what's gonna happen when Davis has "guarantee miss" while Embiid has its unicorn and/or Luka has its clutch?
2. What's with all these new stats while EA say game engine has not been improved? Am I the only one who suspects they added the stats just to mess with our ratings obsessiveness and it won't really matter (as in S1-3)?
3. anyone figured out the coversion formula for points/tokens/players?

Coins aren’t converted, they transfer over.
tokens and rep points automatically convert. There is a screen in the set up process that shows you the number of collectibles and rep pints and how many new Dust currency you got.

1) Good question, wait & see I guess
2) Those stats have always been there, though they may have tweaked how they all work with each other and how the players actually perform
3) Haven't seen enough to know how the conversion is weighted

 

[dub365]

Well, certainly seems like coins have a normal use and value in S4, with what we've seen at least.

Premium packs seem easy overpriced at 1000 NBA cash. Damn.

 

[Altavilla]

So, tokens seem to convert to dust.

What about players? Do they convert to dust or anything?

Yup.. the multi year lineup looks really weird though.. I don't know why they thought the season 3 tag was required..
The interface looks really dull.. hoping it's just for the previews..
25k for a pro pack is pretty steep

I like that Packs have other items now. Pulling 2 silvers and a base gold was sooo weak

Players go in multiyear and we are told they can be used to level up superstars. Presumably they can be sold for the needed shards.
only tokens and rep points convert to dust.
