Well I'm strictly an association player. No online, no myplayer, no blacktop, etc. I'm also a stickler for realism. As a result I've been doing 30 team control for several years. While MyGM sounds very interesting, for the type of player I am (and someone who pretty much only buys 3-4 games a year, all sports) $399 is a lot to spend. I'm very wary of 2K not having fixed all the transaction AI flaws and severely limiting our abliity to work around it. I'm also not sold on the VC emphasis (in addition to issues with the mode it seems like a money grab to me to entice folks to buy VC out of pocket).

That said, the excitement so many posters seem to be finding with the gameplay is promising and it is great to see so many people enjoying the game.

Agree 100% absolutely gutted they took the 30 team option out

I'am not buying half the things I read in this thread. Game might be good, and pretty awesome looking graphically but i'am almost 100% certain out of the box the rosters and tendencies are the same garbage as it ever was.

I think you have to go through NBA Today to go to online. I think PSN is still down right now though.

So we can edit current players?

But later on I had one with Battier that made me do whatever the opposite of the Antonio Banderas is. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

What do you mean by tuning wingspan? If wingspans truly affect gameplay, finally, and appropriately, shouldn't we embrace the realism.

Side note: PS4/NBA2k14 still sealed. Setup will come tonight.

I haven't had a chance to play yet, but just from watching streams it seems the majority of made shots are swishes. Would that be accurate, or not really?

Lol from a couple of quick games GAMEPLAY is just different. I haven't dove into the roster yet and as far as tendencies go.. Just now the A.I makes plays
