After the release you won't need to know anything

I was hoping for gameplay and more my career news especially with those 40hours+ new scenes and all that in your first season alone if they don't release it then oh well

We kind of get the idea what 2k will be gameplay wise if this was Live and EA id be concerned

All I pretty much know at this point is that the graphics will be much better, which is expected if your spending $400-$500 on new hardware. I just find it puzzling why they would wait untill the final week untill they start coming out with any detailed info, thats certainly not going to help their preorder sales at all.

How do you plan to play a demo when neither of the consoles are out yet let me know please?

the only modes i play in this 2k is OA - Online Association, and MyPlayer (Blacktop, Crew), these are the only modes that i have played since this game has come out, and not one of them has been fixed or updated since we have started. There is still a lot of glitches just in the OA, they finally updated rosters, but most likely this will be the only update they will do for the OA rosters.

So lets hope they fix and update these 2 things in next gen because they wont be doing it in the near future for current gen no more!

I know its impossible to play a demo. All I was trying to say was with no demo it just makes it worse since we can't even test the game.

But even if they put it out how do you plan to test it lol?

This seems like a direct copy of Madden 25's connected franchise "owner mode". Even the "what kind of GM are you?" is exactly like "what kind of owner are you?" selection. Come on, they are both limited to three personality types that are almost exactly the same (the business man, the personality that gets along with the players, and the personality that appeals to fans emotions)... at least they sequenced them differently and added a crappy 2K user interface.

I don't have high hopes for this game mode because of the MyTeam precedent. In my opinion MyTeam was a poorly implemented copy of UT. I hope 2K proves me wrong.

Say you and I are GMs in the world of basketball, we both offer the same qualities, and we're pretty even when it comes to making good decisions. But say you're better than me at player managing, and I'm better than you at finances? People don't necessarily need a ton of experience to be good at something, sometimes it comes natural. But at the same time, we both can improve at other areas areas throughout our career, too. I think that's all 2K is trying to implement here. For your idea of getting better based on decisions you make, I like that a lot. But it's the first year of this new mode, and the way 2K has this set up is realistic enough for them to build on something just like you described

If all conversations are saved, and they can have an impact on the game, why would they need signature skills? Your decisions and conversations already build up your managing style. I don't know how not having the choice to choose a style prevents you from improving at other areas. If they couldn't do the attribute thing (which I don't really buy), it wouldn't really matter because all your decisions and conversations are saved in the game.

I can see how people can be naturally good at some things, I just don't see how it's realistic for them to then to have their weaknesses to be levelled out by a discount. These are rookie GMs, we're talking about. No experience.
