OK, can we stop acting as if this fans reacting to just one lackluster trailer? People are talking about trends from 2k that has become increasingly prevalent for the last three or four years. Even I mentioned it was either 2k12 or 2k13 when they started releasing minimal gameplay info or media. And there are people seeing through this and voicing their displeasure.

I hate that I can tell that the next line of defense for this marketing tactic is people going, "Stop being so entitled. 2K doesn't need to release gameplay vids or info to you. Just buy it or don't."

So was Mike Wang a PR move as well? He was a member of OS before getting hired....I mean PR move as you would call it...

Christ these forums and whacked out theories....

Why is everyone bent out of shape about the lack of gameplay footage. 2K does this literally every year.

They give us very little to no footage/information of the game till about 2-3 weeks before launch.

haha. i know. people get so panicked when they don't get gameplay footage and think 2k is trying to "hide" the game. haha. 2k never lets us down. every year people freak out and think 2k is trying to hide footage because the the game is flawed in some way - then they release footage and it looks great as usual.

nba 2k is not going to drastically change from year to to year - that's how they've built such a great game over time - slow incremental improvements...removing the things that don't work and improving the things that do work. it's a simple concept, but a lot of companies struggle to grasp that concept - they make too many drastic changes and end up breaking the game rather than improving it.

I hope spike lee doesn't narrate mycareer, he has one annoying voice. Where's morgan "God" freeman when you need him?

Imagine if 2K came out today and released all the information on the game plus gameplay. That would leave 6 weeks and 3 days of an agonizing wait til release.

As much as I really want to see stuff or even read about the modes, I take comfort knowing there's much time left. If it was September 24th with no info, the yea pre-order cancelled loool.

I wasn't following 2k back then but i would say no, the newer guys they hire are only to appease, like bedsworthy i'm not doubting him but you mean to tell me 2k had no idea how to make rosters somewhat like him? C'mon dude y'all drink the 2k kool aid too much at times
