The Olympics in 2K17???

[Orlandosimgamer35]

Just wondering if it has been confirmed or not. Some of my favorite photos from the photographic thread are the Olympic team photos. Obviously, Would be a terribly missed opportunity if it isn't in the game. With Rio coming this summer do you guys feel like it should be in the game or you don't really care for a mode like that? Let me know.

I would love for the Olympics to be in 2K17. I think that would be a good addition for Association and MyPlayer mode. I would love competing to make the Olympic team and then competing w/ other great players against other countries.

I think that EA owns the rights for FIBA. Olympic games tournament is run by FIBA.

If they gonna make Olympic teams crappy like Euroleague then i don't want it at all. Especially that means for obscure basketball countries from Africa & Asia. I mean..no need to take this convo further when 2K thought spanish born player Alex Abrines was black.



This is Alex Abrines 2K and this is how Alex Abrines looked on 2K15..



..and no he is not power forward

Doesn't mean 2K can't make up their own, like how we have college in mycareer.
So it may not be the Olympics, but they could certainly add their own basketball world cup or something.
Who knows, maybe the rights to FIBA comps could be bought up cheap by 2K.

Anyway, I like the idea of some international competition.

would be interesting the only problems i could think of would be licensing idk if anybody already has the rights

Believe it or not, there are actually some invisible players on a certain euro team.
