If 2K11 doesnt have all the current teams, I'm going to buy the comp's product as its been confirmed that they have included all 27 teams. Maybe 2K could patch the rest in after release if they all arent there to begin with. But don't worry guys. I'm on it. I asked it in the QA thread if all 27 of the NBA's current teams are in. No worries.

Okay this almost HAS to be a joke right now, but, the NBA has 30 teams, and yes all 30 are included in the game.

Although, just in case you're not joking, I even found a list for you of all current teams in the NBA, which once again, are in the game..

Maybe he isn't counting the T'Wolves, Nets, and Lakers.

I know I don't.

Ok...Ok...

It was a bad attempt at a joke. I found it amusing though for the short time it lasted though.

"There are 30 teams in the NBA. What the hell is this TMagic guy talking about?"

LOL

I'm done now. Carry on. Anyways, great insight...lol

All those games have is play, trade, draft, sign, rinse and repeat. A complex franchise mode like 2k it would be extremely difficult and resource consuming to put that in, especially considering everything they've done this year. "Seriously disappointed" lol. I'll be waiting for someone to say that the sock glitch is a dealbreaker now!

I think Online franchise is a valid dealbreaker for some people. Some people love to play online so i can understand that.

With 2k though...they need to stablize the online area of their game before we start worrying about adding online franchise. Make sure the online modes actually work...

But enough about that, I still can't believe all they are adding this year and all the extra attention to Association...wow... Oct.5 cannot come fast enough, even with Halo:Reach.

Hopefully with all these AI/Logic changes it makes it that much harder and challenging to build a great team.

I don't play a whole lot online so I guess I don't get the whole "Online Association" chatter that people want. So someone please explain to me the nuts and bolts of "Online Association" and what y'all want it to do. Only game I do play online is MW2. I mean, if sports games didn't have that lag in them that they do (makes playing online awkward and I have a direct connection in my PS3), I'd probably would play more. Sorry for those of you who are really disappointed...but I'm good with everything they are bringing this year.

[ehh]

LMAO!

That may have been the worst execution I've seen on OS.

We all have bad days, TMagic lol. Saaaa-wing and miss!
