I've had a few vague answers about whether or not you can play your MyTEAM against your friends' MyTEAM. If you can, this blows away Online Association. Love the fantasy basketball aspects and the tweaking you'll need to do to get the team you want. Unless you want to play an Online Association with a specific team, i can see this being a really popular mode.

Between this and the new MyCAREER, my social life is on hold for the next 4 months...

Another great mode added! I am not sure how much time I will give this but it looks pretty good!

This mode looks incredible. Can't wait to put together a complementary team and add on to it. Going to be amazingly fun. Literally can't wait much longer, that demo Tuesday is going to get played more than any demo I've ever downloaded.

The VC salary situation is great so long as it keeps things balanced long term. Also, actual salaries and the salary structure would add another layer but this will do just fine. Will likely play this if I ever want to play 2k online. Great, great stuff.

Definitely more to the mode than I thought. Will definitely try it out.

I think I'm starting to like this Virtual Currency thing. Since it's involved with almost everything in the game, it makes playing everything more rewarding as not only do you gain enjoyment out of playing the game, but you also get rewarded with something you can use to make another mode better. I think it gives the game a lot more longevity.

Haha, my bad. I just saw Corner Specialist then 30% and I was like, "What?".

30% would be ridiculous, anybody who is a decent 3pt shooter would never miss.

A few questions immediately though.

- How long are the games?
- How many players per roster? Are we going 5 deep, 10 deep, in building teams?
- Can you play exhition my team games against friends?
- I thought I read that you could put myplayers in this mode, how does that work?
- How customizable is the team itself. Can plays be assigned, for example.

This is a huge addition IMO, AGAIN great stuff

I think my favorite thing that I've heard is that in MyCareer your player gets his contracted paid in Virtual Currency, very cool. Makes the mode worth playing for that reason alone.

I'm praying that it's on HOF and Sim Sliders!

If you can import your MyPLAYER into this mode, GAME OVER!! That would be sweet, so i bet it won't happen (although they did say that all MyPLAYER's would be stored on servers, so it could happen).

Exhibition against friends would be amazing, I'm assuming you will go 10-15 deep on rosters (just like the NBA), and you can specify game lengths in exhibition but it's locked to 8min quarters (or something like that) for road to the playoffs games.

This mode looks beyond sick!! I have some questions but I'm going to read through this thread first to see what's been asked/answered already.

In a moment of ignorance, I saw a quick screenshot of a player in a uniform that said "Royals" and I thought for a second "My Team" was going to include a new "Create-a-Team" feature where we could customize our own uniforms with team or city names across the chest. Alas, as I watched the video, I saw it was just a retro Kings jersey.

With that said, I'm not a big fan of fantasy rosters or online gaming, so a lot of this mode doesn't seem to be for me. What I did appreciate was 2K's willingness to provide something for offline gamers (the exhibition mode). I may not like fantasy rosters too much, but I do like unlocking things (or virtual buying things) so I could see myself giving this mode a shot. Though, I still think it would have been awesome if gamers could have created their own realistic-looking teams and uniforms.

This sounds like a great mode but I think cheesers will ruin. I would rather have sim communities with sim rules, but I like the love for online 2K. Good job.

Same here. I would love to create my own jerseys, stadiums, etc.

Not much if we potentially aren't getting an insight.

This mode looks really nice not really my taste but I do hope with 2K14 2K takes a small step away from the whole living vicariously through myplayer/myteam.

Starters:

PG: Irving / Jennings
SG: Nick Young / JR Smith
SF: Rudy Gay / Shane Battier / Terrence Williams
PF: David West / Ibaka
C: McGee

PG: I like both Jennings and Irving, they can drive to the hoop and shoot the 3. Also both have good playmaking skills. Guess Irving is my first option, he's lower rated so he must be somewhat cheaper.

SG: Also quite similar players. JR is just less consistant but i don't know if thats recognisable in the game. Both have a top notch 3, and can dunk.

SF: If Rudy Gay is too expensive, i'll get Battier. But thats only when Defence is really worked on, cause he has the Lockdown 3 and the corner jumper. Otherwise Gay would be my 1st scoring option, very versatile player. Maybe Williams is an option too for the SF spot. Haven't played 2k12 but heard that he is a very underrated player.

PF: Different set of players. David West is a very good post player, Ibaka is a defensive machine. Don't know who to go with. I am more of a backcourt player so Ibaka would lock it up on D and not be used too much on offense. West can start the break very well. He's a decent rebounder and has the Breakstarter signature skill. He doesn't play too good defense tho.

C: JaVale! Crazy *** Center here lol. But i like him very much on 2k11. Good in defense and blocking shots. Also one heck of a dunker. 74 rated so must not be too hard to pick him up


Oh man gotta love those 70-80 players

Yeah I saw it he also said "no promises" so if its that uncertain I'm not sure much was really done there.

MyTeam does look neat though
