Obviously it could be better but they have limits applied by the NBA themselves. And remember, we on the forum are a minority. The ****** fans and even a lot of the youtube guys love the story in 14, and 2K hears more feedback on Twitter and Facebook from ******s that love it so they decided to keep the story in.

Lol the problem i have is the story was THAT bad. Almost like it was created by disney. I think the story would be less controversial if it a. Could be skipped and b. When the scenes are skipped they dont negatively effect your gameplay. That stuff along with no more scripted "missed free throws" and catching "the flu". If they implement this stuff for the guys who dont like cutscenes, then you wont hear another word out of me. And thats a promise. Because i do understand that some like cutscenes, but can we get something for the guys who dont?

And even you said a sports game story has no choice but to be cheesy. Which is why the last thing a sports game needs is story. Hell, fight night champion did the same thing back in the day, and a lot of people were irritated by it because they felt they wasted resources doing something nobody asked for. I just feel like it's a waste of time and resources to waste, writing a cheesy story mode nobody asked for, it's weird. And yeah ******s will eat anything up, but honestly that's more reason that a story mode wouldn't matter,with or without it ******s will play, all they gotta do is show an epic trailer and they're sold you know?

Have you watched Disney sports movies before? For every Invincible you get a dozen cheesefests.

As for no-one asking for a story mode, no-one on OS maybe, the land of Crew and 'online gaming is king' but I myself wanted a story mode big-time and I bet so does the millions who don't frequent OS. The arrogance of some OS posters astounds me, just because you do not want something does not mean the rest of us agree with you.

Not to mention MyCareer was the most played mode on next-gen, so clearly their cheesy story was popular. It seems Mr. Springs, you're in the very small minority when it comes to MyCareer.

that face scan looks nothing like smoove. 2k needs more hairstyles. that line up is bad

Yeah, OkayC that's another problem the story had. It forces you to do things for the story for "drama" or whatever, rather than having the story adjust for things you do. Nobody likes a scripted, less controlled experience. Especially sim heads.

Like I said though, I'm not disagreeing, I'm only saying we're in the small minority that couldn't care less if there wasn't a story. All the Youtubers and people on social media talking about the story being cool, give a reason for 2K to add on and make new situations in the game.

It could be a good thing, because it means they'll pay more attention to the mode itself...fixing gameplay and glitches. So it's not all bad.

mc was the most played mode since its existence, not just on next gen. spring has a point, ******s are ******s, they'll be playing the game whether the cutscenes were here or not. Heck update graphics and give a cool trailer, and ******s wouldve drooled all over this game like they do every year. So i fail to see why 2k needed to go out of their way to appease a crowd they already own. And as someone who had followed other forums, youtube posts, etc i can't recall very many people if ever actually verbally stating they want cutscenes in this mode. And guess what even if they did say it, ******s would still be playin it. so no offense but your point is somewhat moot.

MyCareer is a distinctly non-simhead experience. It's a wish fulfillment mode, a proper simhead would never touch it, because it's not completely realistic.

Also, and I'm not sure if you know this, but 2ksports makes much more money from ******s than they do sim heads. For every poster who moans about a logo/jersey/court being wrong there's 100,000 ******s who couldn't give two craps as long as the game is fun.
