DC's on fire! Great stuff, man.

What?

Have you ever played NCAA or Madden's "Superstar Mode"? This is what this mode is like.

Example/Run through.
-You create your player, pick his position, height, blah blah blah
-You get thrown into the combine to do drills and games
-You perform well and you get drafted high, you do bad and you get drafted low.
-Once you're on a team, you play with the team as your player.

It's like an Assocation mode, but you only have control over the player you created. So you're putting yourself, or your created player in the NBA and playing through him and only him.

So some players won't be on the same designated team? Ex. Luke Budinger or a late 2nd round pick; if you got picked his same pick, he would go to a different team?

So if I get drafted late in the 2nd round or go to a team that doesn't need me, I won't play? What if I actually have a good rating but don't start because I play behind a superstar, will I get traded? Will they trade the other guy because I'm cheaper?

I was wondering that too and I'm hoping that after you get drafted they have summer league where you get rated based off performance(like the picture of draft combine where it has different sections). Have training camp where you get to compete for minutes during practice and in preseason games.

Lets say you don't make the rotation I was thinking that in between games the team has practice days so you scrimmage with your teammates and you get graded on(same way with the draft combine). Your performance will determine how much you play.

I'd be extremely surprised if the career mode is that deep. I turned down my expectations a bit because this is the first year of this new mode (unless it's a renamed 24/7). I don't expect them to include that much detail in the one year or so they have to develop the game.

First of all let me say that this draft combine sounds like a great idea. I love all the customization that has been added to create-a-player. I will definitely be purchasing this. But the thing that concerns me is that you can only upload 1 player to the 2K servers to be used in 2K10? It seems like a waste of such a promising tool. You should be able to design entire draft classes and have them imported into your game. I'm sure people are gonna want to experiment and create players at different positions with different skill sets and import them to play with in the full version of the game. It just seems like we're being cheated out only being allowed 1 player to import. When I first heard about this module I thought we were gonna be able to spit out players and import them in 2K10 like there was no tomorrow.

No one has any idea if you can or can't do that yet.
