I agree, besides the silly name/nickname I thought something like this would be what the mycareer guys would want, it hasn't been about the NBA side of the game for a while so might as well be happy they are including a more detailed story.

Nah, I'm not feeling this at all.

I'm getting 2K13 vibes from this with the whole Spike Lee/Jay-Z thing.

I just hope the presentation doesn't look absolutely ridiculous like it did with 2K13 and the ugly gold microphone/speaker theme.

Frequency Vibrations is just two random nouns put together, that is not a name haha. I'm eagerly waiting for them to come out and clarify that. And I thought Seventh woods was a ridiculous name...

Maybe our guy is like Ron Artest, and changed his name to Frequency Vibrations like Artest did Metta World Peace... I really wonder what names DIDN'T make it, if they settled on "Frequency Vibrations", and said, ok that sounds good!

Frequency Vibrations hahaha as a guy who rarely plays my career anyway just hearing that name makes me cautious of how corny the story will actually be.

I never understood the appeal of my career since the Jackson Ellis days anyway, isn't it all scripted? I don't know, i could be wrong but it seems the mode is just to attract casual gamer's and immerse them into a scripted world.

What i would enjoy would be a documentary style 30 for 30 inspiration type of story. Where you come in undrafted like this years story, but your story can go at least four different ways. Be known as one of the greatest comparisons to MJ, or be one of the best scorers, or be one of the best to never win a title, or be one of the best players to be the least liked in the league(terrible teammate grade).

The game should stop a certain milestones and big matches and give that narration type of story.

At least it wouldn't be corny and totally scripted your results dictate the end of the doc.

I don't want a set story though, if I suck I don't want minutes being forced upon me just because it's what the story dictates. Last years start to your career was stupid with you getting your chance with a predetermined injury.

One can also want a better MyCareer and want sim ball, it doesn't have to be one or the other. If it were up to me MyCareer would be a lot more sim where player roles and following sets and schemes mattered.

That name has to go! Come on 2K really?!? Hopefully it's not too late into development to change it. WTF is that? Frequency Vibrations? SMH! This is still a basketball game not some SCI Fi show or adult film. This will be an epic FAIL if they don't change that name. I get that Spike is trying to be different as usual but this is ridiculous.

[RyanLaFalce]

The career mode honestly sounds/looks REALLY dumb. Thankfully there is still online play with friends and myLeague.

Frequency vibrations??? I don't care if that's a nickname or not... For a high school phenom that's just a stupid name...
