How to unlock the Buzzer Beater achievement in NBA 2K11 - Definitive Guide

You HAVE to play on 5 minute quarters for this one. I recommend adjusting the sliders to 100 for your profile. You can even turn all fouls and rules off. With the sliders making the buzzer beater will be impossible to miss just make sure the score is tied at the end you can even use 2 controllers.

I have done 5 minute quarters and this didn't work for me with sliders and rules adjusted. I was down 2 and made a 3-pointer. Does it have to be tied?

not a solution but maybe this helps someone

you can also do the NOT OVER YET and BUZZER BEATER cheevo in the Jordan challenge...I did them yesterday while playing the father day challenge against the Sonics.

I was behind by 2 Points with 22 secondes left to play in the fourth quarter. I saved the game and jumped right back, so now, you have the chance to go for NOT OVER YET or BUZZER BEATER achievement and if you miss - no prob, just load your saved game and try it again.

PS: Please don't give negative votes without a comment. That doesn't help me in any way.

for the not over yet you have to hit a game tying three at the buzzer so if your down by two it doesn't work.

Tried this twice and it didn't work. Did it with it tied, and 2 behind making a 3. Also did 5 and 7 min quarters. Still didn't pop.
Suggestions?

This can be done in any game you don't simulate, including My Player, as long as you don't simulate while you are subbed out. Sliders may also be used to make sure that last shot goes in easily as well as turning off shot clock and 8 second rule so you can hold the ball beyond half court and let the time tick away. Just make sure you are tied and let it tick down to the last 1.5 seconds and let your shot fly. You can also use 2 controllers to really control the game.

Set it up for 7 minute quarters no matter the gametype so you can also set yourself up for:
NBA 2K11Hold the Fat LadyThe Hold the Fat Lady achievement in NBA 2K11 worth 51 pointsStart the 4th period losing by 10 or more points and win with any team, in a non-simulated game.


Personally I did this during an Association game to count towards the 30 games needed to be played in my conquest for:
NBA 2K11Home CourtThe Home Court achievement in NBA 2K11 worth 111 pointsEarn the NBA's best record in The Association mode (at least 30 games played).


Also I quit and saved with 1 minute left when I was 3 points down so that I could load and be set up for:
NBA 2K11Not Over YetThe Not Over Yet achievement in NBA 2K11 worth 75 pointsMake a 3 pointer at the end of regulation to send the game into overtime, in a non-simulated game.


So there you have it, 3 achievements and another association win out of one 28 minute game instead of playing through three different 20+ minute games.

You NEED to have the ball in your possession, and in your best player's hands (unless you are using custom sliders). Shoot the ball with almost one second left on the game clock in the fourth quarter or overtime (not the 24 second shot clock) and make the basket to win the game.

It is best to have the game tied in case you miss you can try again in overtime.

This must be done in a game with at least 5 minute quarters. Sliders can be adjusted and difficulty altered. Can be done with two controllers and rules adjusted (shot clock off). This will not unlock in My Player mode.

The fabled Buzzer Beater, the shot that makes teams and fans alike go ballistic at the end of a game if it goes in. While it can be done with a second controller, this is very easy against an altered CPU. Set the difficulty to Rookie and change the sliders to your advantage. I suggest turning all the shot percentage ones up to 100 and possibly lower them for the opposition. Turning your block and steal percentages to 100 will also make this a lot easier.

Play with a team that has a good clutch player such as LeBron James or Carmelo Anthony (Heat and Nuggets, respectively). Let your opponent score, but make sure you hit right back and stay 1 or 2 points behind them the entire game. Once it gets down to the final 2 minutes of the game, this is the critical point of the game. Making sure you are losing AND in control of the ball with less than 24 seconds left is crucial. If you need to run the clock down to make sure this can be achieved without the opposition scoring, steal the ball as it should be easier and run it out of play. Continue this until 24 seconds are left then steal it again and hold onto it. Find your clutch player with about 10 seconds left and position them either outside the 3 or inside, depending on the score. Simply shoot with about 1.5 seconds left on the clock and hit the shot to win the game.
