The issue isn't that there's storylines, its that its completely forced. If I can make different decisions than you and our paths end up different then yea that's cool. But no everyone plays out the exact same career. Doesn't matter what team your on you experience the exact same events. What if I wanna create a PG and a C with different personalities ? Well it doesn't matter cause they both get the same cut scenes the same everything.

Frequency Vibrations???

Seriously?

I mean wow...just wow.

2k has now assured us that we can still create our own player but we are just stuck with the name...

So basically the first white man in history to be named Frequency Vibrations will be hitting the NBA court...

Just to have fun...I should also gave the option to make white Frequency 5 foot 9, 300 pound, point guard...Just so I can laugh hysterically at the cut scenes.

Can't wait for this one!

I know his response got lost in the thread here, but I think the fellow from 2K said it'd be a nickname, not the forced legal name.

Right on. I think maybe the word we're looking for may be "organic". That said, it's much, much too early for me to draw any conclusions regarding this year's take, particularly with an "It's your story" motif. Perhaps there will be a move in the right direction this year, Frequency Vibrations notwithstanding.

Sad part is it won't be funny because the player bodies don't show weight increases or decreases unless they changed it in 2k16.

It is not supposed to do that. It is supposed to leave you wanting more information.

Do you even market bruh?

As long as I can control the story and not be forced to be an undrafted free agent I'll probably purchase because I mean seriously Live lost me when they said their career modes we're going to have stories
