(Note the difference in the word Roster and Accessory). They didn't put a roster update out when they updated arenas did they? No, and why? Because they were ARENA updates, nothing to do with a ROSTER. All of those screaming about a team's socks being white or black, seriously who sits there and focus on the socks of players when you are playing the game? I don't think Wade wearing white socks on the road is going to suddenly make him play like Smush Parker, he's still Wade and going to play like Wade and plus did I miss the memo when socks even linked to the ratings? A Roster update is for the those of us who seem to not grasp the concept all about the team's rosters and the PLAYERS contracted to that team who are on that roster. I do acknowledge that 2K brings this type of heat onto themselves. For most of us who are roster makers, we have already since the first week of the game's release found and unlocked the 2nd rounders, the hidden free agents who are on the disc, so complaining that Terell Harris or Darius Johnson-Odom aren't in the game, guess what....they are, they are just hidden (let that sink in for just a minute before you mind goes haywire). I do agree that having all those players hidden on the game disc that it is not very hard for 2K to unlock them and add them to the overall roster set, heck about 90% of us already have and it didn't take no more then 10-20 minutes probably. So 2K, you do bring a lot of the harsh criticism and negative feedback on yourselves because you simply have to spend 5-10 minutes (if that) and do what 90% of us have already done and unlock/unhide the players and then you are being praised to the heavens for such a fantastic roster update. Yes, I understand that some players might not be on the game disc at all and that 2K is where your lack of attention to detail has slipped. Players like Shved, Claver, Freeland, Singler, Teletovic, Wallace, you should have made those 6 players your first priority (give them all cyberfaces) and upload into the roster set and hear the praise from everyone for a job well done. There can't be anything in those players contracts holding them up legally from being in the game can there be? If the future roster updates for the rest of 2K13 are going to be minimal and disappointing might I just suggest not doing them at all? I mean why put yourself out there to be hit by the negative feedback when you could just throw your hands up and say "guess what folks, no updates for the rest of the year". After all, if we were able to go in and unlock and unhide all the hidden players on the game disc that means they in a way wanted us to at some point, if not they would've have made it a b*tch to crack.

How can you do this? PS3 user. I want to unlock all the "hidden" players

How many times are you gonna post the same exact question word for word in this thread?

To answer you're question and based on past roster releases NO. The injured players are usually open to play with in OFFLINE play.

This has become a 2k tradition dude. People make mistakes. A large group of people working towards the same goal, a company, shouldn't make as many.

This is like having xmas twice on the same day!

Now I get to be disappointed ALL OVER again, when they leave out Teletovic/Singler and Shved. My guess is, they'll add Kyle Singler, to soften the blow.

Thanks, 2k!!!

[ProfessaPackMan]

Just give me Teletovic and Toko on the Nets, 2K and I will forgive you for any other past mistakes you may have done.

Is that still too much to ask for?

This.

At this point, I'd settle for knowing that 2K knows that Teletovic/Shved and Singler actually exist.

Shelvin Mack was release late Sunday. He's gone from the "wrong uploaded roster". Hmmmm.
