NBA 2K15 MyCAREER Opening Scene Video, Face Scan and More

[da ThRONe]

This was the reason I passed on 2K14 and the reason I'll pass this year. This mode should be some much more dynamic as it pertains to paths. This forced narrative kills any replay value. It's the reason I don't buy games anymore I rent because once you beat them they are essential useless to me.


There's no reason why there shouldn't be a true path to the NBA. The college license can't be that much. You should start in March Madness, then go through a combine, individual team workouts in groups and/or alone(which includes a dynamic interview process), then the draft(which should also be dynamic IMO). After you're drafted you should go play in summer league, training camp, and pre season(training camp and pre season should be every year). If they want to give some people the option to skip it and give them the right to select high draft pick, mid draft pick, low draft pick, undrafted that should be an easy short cut to add. However for me the thing that got me hooked on this mode was the emergence of what it was to be pro prospect leaving college. 2K was already making it worse and worse every year IMO now that element appears to be dead and my interest in this game dying with it.


Oh, but the face scanning looks great too bad I won't be using it this year.

How did you come to this conclusion?

Since no game at all has this nor anything close to what 2k has currently. .. I guess you won't be buying any basketball game this year then huh.

I swear I read/heard somewhere say the storyline wasn't linear this year.

Well I don't know what any other game has or not right now. So I can't say yes or no until I do. With this info all I can say is no to 2K15. I didn't play a basketball game at all last year so it's very likely it may be the same this year. I play videogames for fun not because I feel I'm obligated. It's becoming clearer to me I'm not 2K's target consumer. Hopefully enough people feel the way I do and 2K changes direction, or some other game designer can give me what it is I think is a quality basketball BAP mode. Otherwise I move on with my with the time I invest in basketball videogames. It'll be some what disappointing, but I won't lose any sleep over it.

I play basketball games to play with NBA players not a created man and then come up with all kinds of scenarios that I think should be or its a no buy ignoring the actual NBA part in the process.

That's your choice but looking at My league I think they had people like me in mind as well as many others here.

I haven't touched this mode since the first one which I had íssues with but it didn't stop me from enjoying the core game. Other modes are just gravy on top.

I'm not sure what audience you claim to belong to but I think some of these claims are wild and over dramatic these days.

Give me the Ncaa or forget the whole thing. OK then enjoy those other games or there.

+1.

I love sport games because they aren't generally scripted. MyCareer is nothing more than a cheesy story line.

So? 2k provides multiple modes for you to get your sports game fix, MyCareer is a single mode with a story, that story is not in anything else in NBA 2k so why does it matter?
