Making trades more thought provoking

[Boling4Humor]

I think 2k should consider putting a bigger impact on roster trades.

One idea that just came to me was the amount of time it actually takes for a trade to be presented, developed, and followed through.

Maybe 2k should make the trade market a little more drawn out. Like make it to where it takes 1 or 2 days for Team A to get feedback from Team B. Then as Team B mulls over the proposed trade (depending on how equal or unequal it is), they send back other possibilites for the trade....which could also take 1 day or 2.

This would in turn then allow the media to blow it out of proportion and let the proposed player(s) hear about it and affect team chemistry as well as his morale.

This also will actually make the user take more consideration and time as far as adding the right players or picks into the draft deal.

Another hypothetical path would if the trade talks died out, now the user has to take into consideration the proposed players morale...does he want to be traded now? is he going to test free agency now? etc. I think the amount of time regarding the proposed trade should really affect the morale of player and his future with the team he's on.

I think I'll post this in the Madden forum too. I'm really curious to see what people think about this.

Thoughts?

I 100% agree with you man. With the current trade system you can trade your whole roster in one day if you wanted to and that's not realistic at all. FIFA 11 has implemented a transfer system which makes you negotiate with the players team before you can negotiate with the player himself. Also it pops up with a news story on the home screen if you bid for a player on another team. Obviously the trading system is different in the NBA but as you suggested it could be added to the Association next year hopefully. Good post man.

That's pretty much how its done in the show 10. And a great idea.

This was in NBA Live 2005 and it was great. Cheesed me off a little bit but it all made sense and made it more realistic. I hope 2K takes the time to make this happen. In relation to the media blowing it out of proportion, I would like to see interviews for the players who are rumored to be included like there is for My Player Mode, just a couple of things that would be fantastic to see in the next game. Great idea bud.
