NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

[Trackball]

I'm normally a MyCareer guy--played since 2k11, after a budget-induced hiatus since Ben Wallace was on the cover of 2k5.

However, this one interview made me pre-order the game on Amazon, because I want to show developers that listening to the educated* fanbase equals MONEY.

All EA Sports devs, are you paying attention?

*educated, as in knows what makes a basketball game realistic--that is, most members of this board--as opposed to the noobs who want to dunk over three defenders most plays, a la NBA Courtside 2002

When this mode was announced and I thought about how scripted and VC heavy MyCareer is player lock is the 2nd thing I thought of after thinking how lovely this mode sounds.

I can create my guy and just play him in player lock and make my own career like it should be if I'm not feeling MyCareer when more is announced about that mode.

Player lock is a good idea. Hopefully it gets added if it's not in already!

Well, that's all well and good, but what about those who want to play an association type mode online?? This doesn't help me in the slightest ... Online Leagues isn't like Online Association is it?

This all sounds very promising, as a mode. The one thing I hope will also be changed is how players are valued. In previous 2k's, it seemed it was 'solely' based on ratings, age and contract. The current play didn't really matter, which is weird, I feel. If I somehow manage to average 20/10/4 with Jonny Flynn, for instance, I feel his player and trade value would have to increase greatly, although he still may be rated somewhere in the 60s

Sadden by the lack of attention to the online leagues. Our strong gaming community is not interested in off line leagues. They should have implemented online just like the 360 ps3 version. Smh

Should I or somebody else make a real MyLEAGUE thread to post our future plans inside the mode itself? Not sure if it feels right to post them in this interview thread.

They haven't gotten to their news about online leagues or the new "Crew"-type mode. Just be patient, news will be posted eventually.
