NBA 2K12 will not have a 66 game schedule patched into the game. It will be available for NBA Today only, no other mode will be touched.
Here are Ronnie's tweets on the topic.

This was predictable, but I don't like it when any developer calls a programming task impossible. It would have been very POSSIBLE if the scheduling was designed to be modular in the first place.
Great developers don't typically have the word "impossible" in their vocabulary. Not faulting 2K on not getting this done though because it probably wouldn't be easy to implement after release.

Pretty weak for simulation fans. I thought 2k was prepared to address any contingencies as a result of the lockout. I can see 2k not wanting to do something only for this year, but it seems like their willingness to work on anything that doesn't directly lead to revenue this year has waned, like the few fixes in the patch. This is going to make me quite a bit less hyped about 2k13, regards of the promotionals and insights. 2k12 looked to be a home run (wrong sport) primarily because of 2k11's quality and support. If 2k12 is left in its current state, I'm going to be a bit skeptical of 2k13.

Unfortunately, the reality is this is a company with limited resources just like any other company.
But yes - I agree with your statement if you ignore all other factors. But then that's just being a bit too literal IMO. I think many can interpret Ronnie's comment at more than face value.
2k13 will need to be ready in 9 months. Maybe that helps bring some other things into perspective.
By the way - it's bothersome for a "developer" on here to be so critical of other developers. That's very low brow and I would expect more from the representative of a company.
I know it will bum out a good portion here but considering I am 35 games into My Player and well invested in that, I wouldn't go back for the 66 game season or even the rookies at this point.

The only mode that is seriously hurt by this is Season Mode. Other modes go back to normal within one season.
Doesn't bother me one bit to be honest. I'll continue to do 58 / 82 games without being bothered by the fact that the NBA is only playing 66 games this year.

So you have a 66 gm season, then every other season is 82 games? Association has never allowed you to change season length for different seasons first of all, and there's always been the standard of 29, 58, and 82 games. Again I understand why this may be a letdown for some but to make the jump and call 2K lazy for not being able to add this is just unnecessary.

So has anyone's home menu/nba today menu updated to the current preseason schedule that starts tonight to reflect the new 66 game schedule? I noticed yesterday that that my home menu/nba today was still showing scheduled games for the old 82 games schedule.
to be honest despite what is really going on I still prefer the 82 game schedule
