Introduction:
Welcome to 2K Sports annual baseball game Major League Baseball 2K13. This year's edition, just like MLB2K10, MLB2K11, and MLB2K12 puts a great emphasis on creating your very own player and controlling your player as you work your way as a can't miss prospect in the minors to becoming a Hall of Famer in the big leagues through the My Player mode, which is made easier by playing on custom sliders. Like previous year's, MyPlayer mode is known to glitch so make extra saves but trophies are not glitched. Trophies can be unlocked by playing on Rookie difficulty and using custom sliders. All non-simulated game trophies can be unlock in either an exhibition game or a Ranked online game. Unlike previous year's editions there is no date specific trophies. Following the road map and guide below should help you to a Walk Off
Walkthrough:
Step 1: Profile Creation
You want to create a profile in the very beginning when the game prompts you the first time you load the game. You should select Yes to always connect to 2K Sports, this way you can download the daily MLB today games and be connected for online play. Your profile is the key to tracking your profile stats to unlock the following trophies:
- Domination
- Production
- Home Sweet Home
- Chicks Dig It
- Almost There
- Fanning the Flames
- Set the Table
- Productivity
- You Make Your Own Destiny
- As Good as a Hit
Step 2: Franchise
From the Main Menu, you want to go to Management > Rosters and select a team you want to max out (Team 1) the batters and starting five pitchers to use in one year of franchise mode, and one team you want to set all the stats to zero (Team 2) for the batters and pitchers to use in getting all profile trophies if you do not have an extra controller or cannot boost. Once you have made your edits, go from the Main Menu > Game Modes and select Franchise. Select your maxed out team and set up no trades between CPU teams and set all playoff games to a best of 1, then sim all of Spring training and make sure you play at least 20-21 games in your franchise to unlock franchise trophies. You can sim the rest of the season, which should have earned you most if not all MLB season records. With your maxed team you should easily make the playoffs, earn a MVP award, and win the World Series to unlock the following trophies:
- Remember Me
- You're Special
- The Champs
Step 3: Online Play Unachievable due to server closure
Time for some online play. You can boost the online trophies or not; it is up to you. The great thing about online play is that all non-simulated trophies can be unlocked in online play except the My Player and Franchise mode trophies. To play online select the bottom left map of the world on the home screen and then Exhibition > Ranked. The online service will search and match you up with another player. If you want to boost with a partner, then you two need to sync together in hope that you are matched up with one another. It is important to play one game as the Houston Astros. Make sure when you play that you played all 9 innings, then play nine more games with nine different teams. Also, at some point you will want to win three games in a row and beat the San Francisco Giants. You will unlock the following trophies in this step:
- Upset Alert
- The Spice of Life
- Count It
- My Fellow Man
- The Road to Greatness
- Team to Beat
Step 4: My Player
From the main menu, you want to go to My Player and create your player you will use to accomplish all the My Player trophies. Like previous year's, MyPlayer mode is known to glitch so make extra saves but trophies are not glitched. You can play on rookie difficulty, or if you are in a rush, you can play on custom sliders. In the games you play, the game will give you a goal to accomplish when you come up to bat or are on base. Being successful in goals will give you key skill points to use on your player. If you get a 10+ game hitting streak, then your goal points will be doubled and if you play in a "Key Game" then all "Key Game" goals are doubled. There will be many games you need to play called "Key Games," which are if you're in a MVP race with a group of players, chance at improving your shot at winning your division, wild card race, Key Game against your rival, key game against you inter-league rival and playing against a top player at your position.
I suggest you play your first season to increase your overall abilities with only a little bit of simming. In games you sim, you earn less skill points and games you play you can earn a multitude of skill points. If you sim, there are times when the game will stop simming, and make you play a clutch moment and a clutch moment is where you have a goal such as hit a walk off hit.
Throughout your My Player career, you will need to meet 2 or more team goals, 5 or more season goals, and 5 or more career goals. Then once you have met these goals, go to career decisions and retire and you will enter the Hall of Fame. This will take you at least 5-6 seasons. Also, always make an extra save of your "My Player" in case you might experience a glitch as it has happened in previous years with "My Player". Expect most "My Player" trophies to be very time consuming. You will unlock the following trophies in this step:
- This is Why I'm Here
- The Call
- The Goal
- Payback
- Your Day
- Back to the Cage
- A Job Well Done
- 2-Peat
- The Top
- The Hall
- What's Your Ring Size?
Step 5: Clean Up/Home Run Derby/Exhibition Games
Now it is clean up time and you can go after any trophies you have left and explore the Best of the Best Home Run Derby mode. If you still need some profile trophies like Production, then use your max out team (Team 1) from franchise mode and play against a team with minimal ratings (Team 2) to play with in exhibition mode in a quick game. Trophies you may need to unlock in this step:
- King of The Hill
- He Taketh Away
- Mr. Consistency
- A Virtue
- One Man Show
