How to unlock the My All-Star achievement in NBA 2K12 - Definitive Guide
First: I got a good grade in the pre-draft game (B+). If you start off with a bad game, quit and restart.
Second: going through the team interviews, I picked the answers that I thought sounded like MP had confidence he could fit in and succeed with their team, even if they had a good PG already, you will end up replacing them! I got picked 11 by Golden State.
Third: I played 12 minutes quarters and simmed 5 minutes quarters.
Fourth: PLAY EVERY GAME! Don't just play key games, play all games, quitting / restarting if you start off bad until you get the announcement and achievement!
Fifth: In post-game interviews I mainly picked answer B, usually arrogant, but your league wide popularity goes up, which you need.
Lastly, try to play "smart" and add your skill points in areas that you need to improve after every game.
NBA 2K12 MP seems tougher than 2K11, so expect to get frustrated until you get around player level 69/70.
Personally for me, my 2nd year with my player I barely made it into the all-star voting and took the 12 slot in the all-star game. The achievement did not pop and I finished up the season.
The next season I was a beast and was 2nd in voting and a week before the all-star game came around it popped up.
MY CONCLUSION - You must be locked into the all-star team by the week before the all-star break, at a very high position in the voting.
Ways to become an all-star include:
Changing playtime to 12 minutes and sim time to 5 minutes, so that you may lead it certain stats.
Always answering interview question with arrogance, most of the time this is option B. Your league wide popularity is what gets the votes for you. You can also donate in my purchases once a year to increase league wide popularity.
I hope this cleared up some concerns for you. If there is anything you like to add please comment.
PS. I won this achievement during my 3rd season as my player.
This is based off your league popularity and your stats. After game press conferences will get you your League wide popularity. Answering with A (professional) B (arrogance) to all media questions will net you the most popularity, however Answering with arrogance can lower team chemistry and/or fan support. Donating to a Charity through my purchases with also net you an additional 5 to popularity.(Can donate once per year)
As for stats, Try to be in the top 3 in 2-3 different categories at your position.
The All-Star game is in February so this will take you around 50-55 games to get to it.
(I've read a lot of the forums that this achievement doesn't seem to be unlocking for people. It does not matter if you sim past the All-Star game or if you are a starter or not. The achievement should unlock when you are selected to the all-star game.
I recommend you make a duplicate save in mid Jan-Feb in case this is glitchy.)
