That is a staple for christ sake, it is 2014... everything is online

That's my gripe with the lack of attention 2k's online department gets each and every year. Why ignore online functions when everything is online at this point? I mean you couldn't even play 2k14 offline without an online connection last year. Can't give a company anymore hints to what gaming generation we are in at this point.

We aren't even asking for MyLeague online. Just give us 2k13 online association, without the glitches and i'd be happy. The fact the same 0 $/0 Yr contract glitch has been in 2k for YEARS is a disgusting fact by itself.

Fantasy Draft
Multiple Years
Free Agency/Off-Season
Player Progression
More ways to earn off-season points
Ability to upload custom draft classes
Custom Rosters
Practice Plays/Practice Mode
Play offs
Sliders
Multiple Admin's
User & CPU Teams

That's all we really want and you know this can be patched or released as DLC. But the fact is it shouldn't have to be this way.

First of all live and learn from past experiences. 2nd fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me! If that 40 minute video you thought everything was perfect and will be a perfect representation of online next year as well as them not changing it once everyone starts complaining how hard it is once again your mistaken. It happens every year! Think 2k11...

As far as playing like real team lol! This made me realize you really don't have a clue what your talking about or understand the bigger issues.

And btw, weren't you in 1 of our leagues a few years ago and got kicked out for not being sim and jacking 50 3's with Houston in like 3 quarters? Lol

Why are you shocked?

Many of you knew this would be the case some time ago.

Honestly, even with the feature implemented there were a few times where they didn't work. Yeah, didn't think of that one eh?

I wish it were in like the rest of you. But unless you're not going to get the game then please stop feigning outrage.

"Damn you 2k!!! How can you not include this and add a slew of other features instead!!! You have no idea what we want!!!! Oh BTW here's my $60."

One day they might listen.

If not, just wait until Live is something decent, you'll see where our 60$ go then.

If there is any soccer fan out here, they will know what happened in the PES vs FIFA 'history'.

And for the guy saying that we should be alright playing real teams:

No one is shocked just disappointed. Last year was 1st year I passed on 2k ever since dream cast year 1. Not having practice plays and no customization with online leagues and only 5 minute quarters were deal breaker for me. Thos are only 2 things I care about.

That being said I am getting this game regardless. I'm super excited for it and think it's going to be best ever but that doesn't change the bad decisions in a few areas that have been there for numerous years and asked for for numerous years. This year listening to the community and customization has been talked about from all devs and marketing but this is 1 area it was not listened too or implemented.

And all areas I listed prior we're adjustable in past and saved league experience before. Not sure which sliders you are referring too not working? I know that everyone in my league are baffled and upset by this. My texts read smh, wtf, etc. lol

IMO and if I was in charge of this area of game I'd have my list of what will allow users to have best experience especially being that my league will only be offline this year. Let's make it up to them. Now that being said hasn't sliders been adjustable every year until this year online?

It was in current gen (can we call it previous gen now?) and sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. The sliders would actually contribute to disconnects and errors when connecting. It's not easy to do and obviously needs a good amount of focus and testing.

Given what they delivered this year in the form of a "new" experience in other areas, I can understand why this stuff was overlooked. I think having custom rosters will have a bigger impact than sliders although I would prefer sliders as well.

Honestly, leagues haven't been the same since they redesigned the league sites way back around 2k11 or so. OL's haven't been as fun to me due to having to sit at the console all the time. Give me the old league site (which sliders didn't work consistently there either) and go from there. I loved watching gamecasts from my couch on games around my league.

No doubt about it! I loved the 2k site in 2k11 where we could upload game winners, highlights, etc. Having twitch this year (mandatory for all league members this year in our league) will be awesome for policing league as well as scouting and watching key games or matchups. If I'm not in a league game this is what I will be doing guaranteed!

Im with you though and hope that this is because a big focus will go here "next year". Been saying that for 4-5 years though. But like I said I passed on 14 next gen but I swore they had sliders in that game? And I've never had experiences of games dropping because of sliders online. We played 82 games 12 minute quarters with massive slider adjustments with no issues. Hmmmmm

I can't describe it better. 2k11 OL web was the best ever in NBA 2k game's history. I wonder how a videogame company could get worst improved features on past years...
