Affiliations inNBA 2K24– Elite or Rise?
InNBA 2K24, there are two Affiliations:Elite and Rise. They are different in visual style and what perks you get.
Elite features a futuristic sci-fi-themed cityandRise features an Atlantis-themed citywith a huge Kraken and Poseidon. Aesthetics shouldn’t have the most sway over which Affiliation you pick, but it can affect your choice.
The major differences between Elite and Rise are the perks you’ll get.Elite focuses more on defense and shootingandRise focuses more on finishers and playmaking.
Best Affiliation inNBA 2K24– Elite or Rise?
It’s hard to say which Affiliation is better inNBA 2K24.It just depends on what you wantto focus on more. Plus, the visuals of one Affiliation over the other can sway what you pick slightly.
Personally,I’d go with Elitebecause the city is cooler and I’d rather get shooting and defense perks. But that’s just my opinion, and the good news is you can switch whenever you want.
Can you switch Affiliations inNBA 2K24?
You can switch your Affiliationwhenever you want inNBA 2K24,but there is a cost.
Each Affiliation has REP, which is basically your level in the club. After joining an Affiliation, you start at a Rookie 1 REP level. However,if you switch Affiliations, your REP will reset,which means you’ll need to start all over again.
