For the most part I play just to get my overall and badges for Pro-Am but if there's a cool backstory as well than it only makes grinding more fun... Sad I can't bring back Mo "Money" Banks but hey I'll think of something lol

I have a couple names so far,
O. "Freq" Mebaby
Greek "Freq" Spanoulis

Sweet Dick Willie Big Time Willie Geronimo Armstrong Radio Raheem Sahara Paysinger And last, but not least: Seneschal Higginbottom Be happy they're calling you "Freq" or "Freak" in this and not running around proclaiming you "Doo-Doo".

To be fair Doo Doo Breath was the nickname they called one of the dudes trying to be in the frat and Radio Raheem isn't a bad nickname. But yea I agree with you seeing this comment made me look at this new nickname a little more positively.

If this plays like a movie I expect an ending. Either career ending, prison or retire happily. Either way it should yield 200,000 vc in the end.

Questions I have still:

1. Can we customize our players bodies or do we still select a "body type?"
2. Do the improvements to the AI in other modes translate to our coach? (Sub patterns, match ups, etc.)
3. What role does VC still have?

You won't distribute points like normal my player but you will get better more organically from how effective you are on the court. I would suggest playing that way if you are interested in the improvement of gameplay but don't want the story. That is what I will do in addition to my only playing Anthony Davis only Pelicans franchise. P.S. I know you from Pelicansreport i'm jruedat there.

This actually sounds like a solid solution. Honestly I prefer the more organic approach to player development and have been calling for it in MYPlayer for some time now.

I don't like how everyone is pretty much gonna end up having the same storyline.
Not really liking the whole getting forced to be a star storyline what If I want to be a sixth man role player? or a 2nd rounder?
I'm not really a big fan of all this story stuff I liked the simple answer questions at the press conference stuff like in 2k11-2k13 if they could have expanded that it would have been awesome(Locker room interviews, free agency interview,etc..)

If you're gonna have a story great but at least give us some options and stuff I don't want the same linear path like everyone else.

We still don't know much about this mode though so I can't really say much about it lets wait until they give us more information and clear it all up.

Not only being different, but a mode with forced storylines really have no replay value.

Not sure why so many people are upset at other people opinions. If somebody don't want to play a game called "Freq" or whatever why is it your job to tell them it's not a big deal? The reason you play BAP modes is likely completely different than the next person. Personally it looks like I'll pass on MYPlayer not necessarily because of the nickname. However why would I want to make a player in my image (with my actual image) to have him referred to by a name I would never identify by?
