NBA 2K17 MyLEAGUE, MyLEAGUE Online & MyGM Blog With Erick Boenisch

Question for SimBaller or Leftos about the following

Dynamic Uniform Updates

All NBA season long, the team here at Visual Concepts is constantly pumping out new content to keep us up-to-date with the real NBA. This might be new/updated court floors, new/updated uniforms, arenas, and more. If you ever wanted to take advantage of the newly released uniforms (for example, the All-Star uniforms for the current season), you would have to do a complete restart of your MyGM/MyLEAGUE. No one wants to do that! In NBA 2K17, we have written a new backend that seamlessly integrates new uniform releases right into your existing save files. You don’t have to do a thing, they will just be there waiting for you to enjoy!

******

Does this include MyCareer? Or do you still have to start that mode over in order to get access to the new updates? Just wondering so I know if I can start MyCareer on day 1, or play MyLeague until about January or so.

Thank you for your answers!! You are the real MVP ...

I see i didn't clarify enough. By draft picks i meant: "I will trade Curry for Towns + your 1st round pick in next year offseason..." or "I will trade Curry for Towns + your 1st round pick next year and 1st round pick the year after..."

Is this scenario possible?
Can you stockpile draft picks trough trades?

No, draft picks are not tradeable items in MyLEAGUE Online. The rounds for which you have a pick are determined by how many/the quality of your protected players.

The idea is that MyCAREER, MyGM, and MyLEAGUE will have the latest uniforms imported throughout the year from the latest official roster whenever you load your save.

This doesn't apply to MyLEAGUE Online, unfortunately.

Wow simple feature ignored again. not everyone has 30 friends to put in a league that they can trust! How hard is customized league sizes smh

wow i just cant believe what was done with this mode, sounds amazing, hope all of this works according to plan.

If we edit draft classes midway through seasons, then how does that affect Scouting logic for AI teams?? Is the scouting the same as 2k16? including the big boards, mock drafts, social media etc? This really intrigues me just because it seems like so much fun building up your own expansion team.

Also, is there Dynamic attendance in MYgm, in terms of expansion , will the team have 100% attendance, rivalries etc?

@Leftos: Thank you!

Does this apply to a custom roster? For example, if I start a franchise in November using the Simworld roster, will I have all current jerseys imported in or, will I only have the jerseys that are in the game when they start the edits (say september).

Any clarification is greatly appreciated!
