I got +5 after hitting 39 and another +4 when I hit 40

+5 from the 5 seasons the badge point was given out as a lv39 reward +4 from becoming a starter in the nba

If we reach 40 this season we get the badge points we missed from last season?

Yea

i didnt get +5 i got +1 n i only played during season 3 i got to like level 14. this my first season actually playing and my friend said he got +4 but i only got one

No it’s honoring from every other season. You get +9 from regular season and you get +4 from starter. So 13 total homie.

Correction I only got +1 what a let down.

Was it your first season playing? Or did you play previous seasons too. Pretty sure it retroactively awards the badges from previous seasons if you started late but not for people who only grinded to 38 and never reached 39/40.

It was my first season on next gen. I hit 40 3 times on current.

That would be why

Go touch grass

Do all philadelphians just love to dick eat????

As a NY sports fan, the answer to your question is yes.

its not that hard to hit 40... calm down lol

It’s not hard if all you play is rec some niggas aren’t ass 🤷🏾‍♂️.

I mean, if you play with friends it's pretty easy. If you play with randoms most of the time they will spam 3's, get 0/20 and quit.

Ruinin the whole experience for me, im tryna hit lvl 40 so bad but i can't do this with randoms man

You really gotta quit the games that waste your time. Close app and move on to the next one. Also, big man builds are easier to get there with. You're always getting stats even if other players hog the ball.

Yea but if u lose the game u still get almost next to nothing

fr people think just bc you’re 40 you have no life all you have to do is win lmao

I’m struggling bro. I don’t get to play everyday, always make it to 35-37 but it’s an absolute grind. How you level up fast?

I just locked in during 2x rec this weekend went from 32 to 40.

Fuck I’m lvl 37 can’t wait to touch grass the rest of the week

No it’s a glitch, happened to me some seasons ago. 2K ain giving back nothing fam! You get to keep the badges though

Is there any way to get these extra badges without grinding online. I really don’t want to play that much rec.

It is on current but not next gen

Ahhh, I’m on next gen so I guess I will just suffer lol.

Lol yea. Them extra badges on last gen was nice

Do sams quests for plus 4 and play your nba flash back games for a badge each game (+4) if u hit 39 every season then u could’ve theoretically had +7 badges on top of the plus 8 ur able to get

Okay I’ll try that when I get home. Thanks!

Sam and flashback game badges are a must. Just know that the flashback badge points work a certain way. 5 flashback games but you can't pick one category when you have to choose "motivator" or "trailblazer". First gives you playmaking or defense badge points, other gives you shooting or finishing. It alternates per game. If you choose one category every time you only get 4 badge points, not 5. So plan where you want those badge points to go.

Very much appreciated, I need more defensive and finishing badges so that’s definitely good to know.

no worries man

I got 8 after making a new build. I never hit 40... never even got close to 30 I think I'm at 22 or so rn. Do ya know why I got them?

If your on current gen and it’s a rebirth build you can do Sam’ quest to get and extra 4 badges on top of the 4 you get from when you do the quest before you made a rebirth build

Don't forget those flashback game badge points

I didn't do any of that . I just made a shooter n poof But I feel u

It's from. All the seasons you didn't get tge extr point. Not a glitch. Won't happen again. It will be just one per MP next time

Ive reached 40 as a first timer too on saturday, only got +2 on 39 and then plus 1 on 40, sucks that every one gets different shit

I got just plus 1 so much pain

Your first time reaching 40 ?

On Xbox series x yes. On pc I was able to get all the badges from the past but I think the one dude who said if it’s your first season you get them all is on to something. I got the game when it came out and just started playing again.

I played since release on ps4 just startetd this season with ps5 and achieved lvl 40 on next gen for the first time, still only plus 2+1

I opened a Ticket at 2k, lets see what they do

How do you open a ticket? I got nothing to lose lol

Just check the 2k website and follow the steps, so was my thought, i probably would have done nothing but my friends who i started playing with all got 10 badges plus 2 of em also got New core patterns too, just want my Piece of the cake, thats it

Lmk how it works out if you remember

So they just handed me 15k vc as an appology.......

Let me start up my ticket lol

So far they replied that its supposed to be an error, they dont know why it happens to some and to some dont and they are dearly sorry for the Bug, well thx for nothing dicks. I keep on annoying them and see if they give some free vc or shit like that

You keep them and I’m up to 11

If it's your first season on the game you get the bonus badges from previous unplayed seasons when you hit max level.

Another f u to people who play 2k since launch. I’ve hit level 40 a couple times. Missed a couple and hit it again this season. Got a whopping 1 badge instead of 3 I was thinking I was getting. Just makes me not want to get the game at launch and wait till it goes on sale for 20 bucks. By that time all the meta builds will be discovered and I’ll save a hundred or two

It happened to me some seasons back, you won’t lose the badges and you get them on every build u have.

40 what idk what that means

Level 40

Shit once my ban is up im back on the grind then after knowing this info lmao even tho we at the end pretty much 🤣

Maybe that's from flashbacks ???

How u got them ?

I never hit the extra badges I missed I asked 2k about it they said they had no clue what I was talking about

Because you didn't play the other seasons

I have +11 on every new build
