NBA 2K13 Video - Developer Insight #5: MyTeam

[achieveduser]

Yup this is why they wanted to push online feature this year. Now I have to get gold membership to try the demo out if I want to avoid demo and my pre order arriving at the same time. Not cool 2KSports.

You first made me pre order with ASW incentive. Then you make me get gold membership to try the demo out. Want to assure me how fun online matches are? Ok I understand. I will check them out with my new gold membership.

By the way, when are you going to reveal that you are making VC purchasable? Next year or this year? Just come out and say it. I see right through you.

I think the "no promises" is in reference to getting the insight written and put out yesterday or today.

How much can they change in Association though, really? Better AI and trade logic, more customizable sliders but i can't see much ground breaking innovation here.

NBA2K13 Association mode is like the iPhone6, updated but not innovated (hopefully the Maps App isn't trade logic...)

i meant *iPhone5. Whoops.

Fifa Ultimate team/Madden ultimate team

exactly the same format, good to see it.


I'm going to own at this, can't be hard.

I'm not expecting a whole sale change but I would hope they attempted to fix some of the awful team building AI in that mode (for the sake of going deep in mycareer too) but for me they implemented the new CBA idk about you but I myself am not a CBA expert so that's something they should really layout how it effects both Association and Mycareer.

This mode isn't really my cup of tea but it has grabbed my interest..

Yes, 2k is making a lot out of you subscribing to online services completely separate from their game and company. Don't play online if you don't want to, play exhibition against the CPU. Don't play the mode at all. But don't complain about an online mode that doesn't take away from your non online experience. No one to blame but yourself if you spend the money to play online. No reason everyone should be deprived of a game mode because the offline folks can't play it. And I hardly ever played 2k online.
