Any actual gameplay improvements? MyCareer is still far too easy after a year or two, and I'm not all that interested in the Park or ProAm.

Not sure how I feel about this. I have never been a fan of their story centric MyCareer modes and "Livin Da Dream" was in my opinion a crappy mode. This sounds a little better but why are they still trying to force a storymode onto us year after year. They have made some nice additions I mean the idea of being able to control another player this year sounds pretty cool and that they have added this chemistry system that depending on how you chose focus on it gets better or worse does sound good.

Sounds amazing - these will be some long days. I do wonder if justice will follow you in free agency. And I do wonder if we can part with him and what would happen with the switching players if we did. I do like the concept of him being a 2nd round pick trying to prove himself. And I could actually see some drama with jealousy from Denver or justice depending on success - seems predictable. Honestly anything will probably be better than last year. I do wonder and hope they added some things I wished for in a thread. It probably won't matter if it delivers though.

Not sure why so many guys keep saying they're "forcing a story on us." It's their most popular mode so it's not forcing anything at that point. Besides that a LOT of people asked for cutscenes and stuff like that because it's simply boring to a lot of people to simply play game after game with nothing happening. I welcome the attempts to freshen things up no matter how hit or miss it is.

With this I feel as if we will have a lot more control over how our player is perceived and that it will actually affect things, such as endorsements and relationships with people such as your coach, teammates. etc. I've gotta say that I am indeed hype for this, I'm a 2k guy through and through and it's gunna be hard to balance MyCareer, as I'd like to actually get through a career since I rarely do (longest streak: 4 seasons on DET in 2k14) along with MyTeam and now that they've announced MyLeague Online will actually include an off season, Sept. 16th can't come soon enough. *Insert Jimmy Butler smirk GIF here since I can't figure out how to post that ish!*

say no more fam. I got you!

Havent touched the MyCareer modes since introduced but Im happy for you folks that enjoy the mycareer stuff.

Cant wait for Myleague info.

I wonder if you will be able to buy attribute points to upgrade your my player in the prelude or will have to wait till full game release to do this.
