NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #5: MyTeam

[mymannemcee]

Very glad they added contracts on here, too...that's extremely essential. I would've been so annoyed hopping online just to play a team with Jordan, LeBron and Chamberlain all year.

Keeps it much more realistic...speaking of which, since we can put different signature skills on our players, I hope that doesn't mean people will just be tossing Ankle Breaker on people like Dwight Howard!

That'll be stupid cause his dribbling attribute is low...

Well, with a 30% increase through the signature skill and possible attribute updates, it could become somewhat better where it's actually useable. I would have no idea, though. I'm sure people will still attempt it.

Can't view the video right now, is this basically like HUT from the NHL series?

This mode looks great. Hope its as good as it looks, and if it is I hope it sticks around for a while.

I'm sorry but again I feel to see what this mode adds to the game. Seems like a roundabout way to be able to edit rosters the way you like so both current teams and classic teams mixed and just play association / playoffs / season with them right? Some people have lives, i'm not going to just sit here and check everyday for a package to get a certain player. Fail

Not really feeling this mode. I would have rather they spent the amount of time they did on this (which seems rather extensive) on Association Mode which has sorely been needing improvements and touch-ups. There's much longer sustainability with Association Mode than smaller modes like this which may seem fun at first but likely won't keep the gamer interested through the long-haul.

I also wasn't a fan of being able to add signature skills to players. Isn't the point of a basketball game authenticity? Why would I want to face someone who made Dwight Howard a spot-up shooter?

Not trying to be a downer. I'm sure a lot of people will have fun with this mode and more power to them. I just wish their resources were allocated differently.
