NBA 2K14: No Multi-Team Control in MyGM, Some Features Not Moving Over

[Cedrik]

I'll have to see what Live and the Live GM mode is like. As has been mentioned previously there has been too many flaws with the A.I GM's which is why I love controlling as many teams as I like (usually 12 or 14) and then I'll play with a team from each conference. Anyways its not quite a dealbreaker, if I end up getting an xbox one I'll probably buy both 2k and Live. It just means that if Microsoft and 2k want my ca$h this year they'd better hope NBA Live has what I want or my $750 will be going towards a sorely needed new pair of studio moniters.

All I play is offline association so I'm curious. I also like using classic teams in association.

I still can't believe this is real. It's not game breaking nor will it stop me from getting my Basketball Jones on for this year. But it will effect my experience a great deal. I'll dread the stupid AI moves, rotations and signings.

I like to keep my Association realistic and I'm afraid this is taking that away from me. Here's hoping there is a work around and 30 team control comes back for 2K15 as a "new addition".

I'm a 2k guy but this is why we need competition. If the other guy has this and showed something great I would have no doubt in my mind that Association/GM mode would be able to have a 30 team control scheme next year.

Same was said about Madden's connected garbage mode. Took all of the options away and made consumers play it their way. People said give it a chance, it's all new. The outcome was an even buggier mode filled with bugs and unbelievable nonsense that could not be fixed without having 32 team control. They added it back this year, but the mode still seems awful from reading the forums.

This dev team is better, but there have been outstanding association issues spoken about at length. Years on end, and the same flaws continue. I will not believe they are fixed until I see it in game. If they aren't fixed, then the mode so many of us love is flawed without help. I don't even have time to do all of the work involved, but I know once I see nonsense, it turns me off to playing the game. So I would rather have the option to do the work, then to not have the option at all.

Leftos, I respect your work and donated to you after you made the great PC editor. I am glad you are doing well and a big part of the team. You are an amazing talent, and knowing you are working on association/my gm stuff makes me feel good.

That being said, it sucks when options are taken away, and gamers are forced to play a certain way. I didn't like when EA did it, and now do not like that 2K has done it. I know you understand that, and hope the association issues of the past have really been worked on. Please work on adding the control back next year.

Also if we can't play other games, that would be another terrible decision by 2K. Is that accurate, or still waiting to be confirmed?

2k starting to take that saints row approach. Went from a straight up hood, gang video game to "aliens every where!" I believe 2k is making a big mistake, and no daczar "it's not a wrap" I'm disappointed with this.

All I know is, if I see good point guards like Jrue Holiday getting signed to the Cavs to back up Kyrie Irving after the first season and I cant do anything to correct the situation I will be done with this mode. I believe this is still an issue in 2k14 on current gen.

Things like controlling 30 teams in Association don't interest me in the slightest, but I did like to play a standard Season mode...I hope the choices and all that stuff isn't to cumbersome to deal with (or hopefully there is an option to turn it off) because even when I did do an association all that stuff was set to auto...

I am very interested in MyCAREER though...it has yet to keep my interest for a long time CG...Having to deal with some of the stuff they described is just as authentic as having "Summer League" and "D-League" to me...and a bit more enjoyable to me...I can't tell you how many MyPlayers died before take off because the ho hum summer circuit...

Either way, ready to hear more info!!

Classic teams won't carry over, count on it!
