Get a Head Start on Your NBA 2K17 MyCAREER on September 9 with The Prelude

[TheFinalEvent97]

It good to see that the Wingspan a player has affects their skills as opposed to 2k16 where everyone had a maxed out wingspan

Good look... More of a myleague guy myself but I'll just look at as a way to get familiar with the controls before the game comes out... It would be cool if you could pick your personality type and this would determine how your player talks and responds to certain. For example you could chose to have a Derrick Rose personality type in where he's just cool and not overly excited about everything.

I kinda understand why the PC guys got left out of this -- one would think that if they can make the Prelude and Facescan stuff tie into the Xbox One version of the game, they can make it tie into the PC version (since the majority of PC gamers run Windows and the Xbox is made by Microsoft) but I imagine it has something to do with the absolute insane amounts of software/driver/graphic cards combinations a PC rig could have ... it would be difficult to account for all that. I don't blame them too much for taking a pass on it.

This is why they invented APIs - you can delegate the scanning to a phone app which intefaces with the PC backends.

This not being on PC = boooo 2K, booooooooo.

Ideally, I think they should have made thousands of different scenarios (I don't mind if they aren't voiced) for the actual sports events/situation. All the rivalry team lost (you being the superstar of the team or the rookie) means different things, losing a game that affects your team's Playoffs picture, a Duke rookie versus a North Carolina rookie, first career 40, 50, 60 points game... etc They had a good base system when we only get mini-cutscenes and post game interviews. We just need a massive expansion of that system so everyone will have a unique storyline that's true to themselves. Not bringing in half-wit director to force feed us with a rigid storyline with no wiggle room. I don't need to be call Frequence Vibrations or President of Basketball... No one picks up the phone and asks for King when they call Lebron James. That's just silly.

2k is also paying these voice actors, and either they spend a lot of money to make sure they cover all names, and all combos, multiple times... or they make us use a nickname.

You guys are being crazy about this, it's not like they only do voice acting for names like James Smith. If not, they would have super weird pauses as it just skipped your name, or they never mentioned your name in the cutscenes which would be equally weird.

stop being so picky about the names geez.

I wonder can we skip the Mycareer story stuff and just go straight to playing.

Curious to see what the base rebounding is for the power forward Point Forward, hopefully it can get into the upper 80s when maxed out.

Just hope they've gotten rid of 7'3 centers otherwise Power Forwards will be useless like 2k16.
