Developer Posts Wrong NBA 2K13 Roster Update, New Roster Arrives Tomorrow

[detriotpistonfan]

Still no Sacre and Darius Johnson-Odom on the Lakers.

Still no Dequan Jones on the Magic.

All teams had to get to 15 and there are 15 available spots on each team in 2k so I'm not sure what the issue is.

Add these guys please.

I'm just glad I have other games to play like assassins creed III and wwe 13 when 2k does things like this. I want them to wow us so they can shut us up but their track record is very consistent in disappointing us. I really want them to put up a sick roster tonight.

All I'm saying is YOU ARE NOT OWED ANY OF THIS POST RELEASE CONTENT. You paid $60 for the game you bought in august THAT'S. IT. Whatever you get from here on out is a LUXURY. So be happy your getting this pathetic crap for free or just trade the game in. I'm not trying to piss anyone off, I'm just stating what I think the reality of this situation is and what it will ALWAYS to be.

I don't think you understand. The dynamic and updating content is apart of the game. This is not '05 where we did not have consoles that were interconnected to the internet. If we wanted the game for gameplay exclusively, then why not stick with prior releases like 2k11? Because 2k11 was one of the best 2k games ever created.

Them keeping things up to date is part of the reason they make new games every year and why we buy it. Otherwise they would not have the same sales they do.

Your argument is bad. Especially in the era of technology and the internet where part of the game IS the internet. That's like saying they aren't obligated to give us online gameplay since it's powered by THEIR servers and money.

Be gone, 2k white knight.

I am new to this game but can someone tell me why after the update Derrick Rose is no longer available to even play when playing online?? I could understand having to sub him in because he is hurt but hes not even on the roster! can anyone explain???

Frankly, I don't think it was a mistake at all. I think 2K wasn't expecting the riot that was caused with what has become their typical BS when it comes to their roster "updates" when they dropped that crap this morning. They need to get it together or fire the 2K Insider. Dude is horrible on the real.

So are the employees working on 2k not getting yearly salaries? I can see your point, but don't find it wholly realistic. Dev cycle for 14 has been started already and I am sure there is a board up somewhere with ideas for 15, lets be real. Now patches after the first two do cost money (iirc), but those help not hurt as they are fixes that should make it into 14.

Now we don't know if the 2k insider who is supposed to do roster updates is a person or a group of people or what. But irregardless the job (2k insider) isn't all that hard, imo.

Then they shouldn't promise dynamic updates through the season. Just saying.

So everyone's going to boycott the new update right? That'll teach em!!
