As a mostly offline player myself, I hope the MyGm info is just the tip of the iceberg. I would camp out at walmart the night of release if the guys at 2k found a way to implement the following in to the Next Gen NBA 2k14. I know i continue to nag about this but honestly I'm not budging from my stance....still respect you guys work.

EDIT: long time no see Pared

How about gameplay logic that more readily penalizes bad shot selection and rewards good selection. They have a rating system yet many times it does not equate to how the players perform and it is very frustrating. Their dice roll system is ridiculous. As far as cheese, there are many games in which realistic play can match or even overtake cheese. I was ranked 3rd in the world (xbox) on fight night round 4 while also winning EA's peoples champion tournament and was ranked 7th in fight night champion before they patched cheese into the game. In that game there were players that tried to cheese but the gameplay allowed for you to use real tactics to overcome it. Once patched a specific type of cheese was much more effective than any real tactic and therefore I completely stopped playing the series. I now play fifa strictly online and have been a beast since fifa 12 playing a slower possession and skillmove style that almost always destroys the turbo and pressure cheesers. It is possible, the developers just have to approach the gameplay with that in mind. There is a legion of us out there that can not have fun playing against a computer.

When they say 40 hours of gameplay in your first season i don't understand...that seems like nothing

or are we going to be playing like Scalabrine 30 seconds every 5 games

Yeah the real life players look great but we'll probably end up looking like crap

i know there's time but if it was good they would have shown it already IMO anyway

I actually read a tweet earlier that said it was amazing. With like 80 new hair and bear styles and tons of features like adjusting wingspan and such.

cant wait this is the game we are wanting so bad

Although this mode is very similar to Association Mode (simply by simulating all games and manually making basketball decisions, such as trades, coach signings, etc.), 2K could try and add more options and interfaces, such as ticket sales, marketing certain star players on team, or possibly even introduce an expansion team where the user starts from scratch, thus totaling the league to 31 teams.

OMG finally after 2 years my prays have been answered !!!

THANK YOU 2K!!!

On a side note, I hope we have the opportunity to choose the number of games played our per season in MyCareer (i.e., 15, 30, 50, 82 games)

Anyways, here http://www.gamespot.com/videos/the-n.../2300-6415722/

Guy also called Steph Curry "Seth Curry". Credibility 0.

Anyway, there's nothing really wrong with an enhanced, tweaked and polished current-gen 2K14 gameplay with next-gen presentation, which was pretty much what I expected.

The tweet hype was kind of ridiculous without having anything to look at though with your mind filling every description in with the nearly flawless, epic imagery of the trailer.

There's actually still quite a lot of minor foot sliding, so I'm not sure what was meant by new "foot planting". I don't think it's true foot planting but it does look like they reworked animations to minimize it-- which is at least an improvement and pretty nice.

I was really hoping to see Live 14 level size-up foot planting, but everywhere or mostly everywhere. I guess that's still a long ways off.

So with a storyline in MyCareer, does that mean we can pull an Andrew Bynum and get injured playing bowling and sit an entire season while getting paid? *sarcasm*

These video shots are amazing.
I think this is the first step into Next Gen.
Next will be even improved player models, game modes, and commentating system. But i think they want gamers to get a true tv like experience.

This..I'm in the group that enjoys the current gen gameplay. Does it has some flaws sure but if they did their best to eradicate said flaws then anything else i can tweak(almost wrote twerk for some reason) myself with sliders. This game is def a buy for especially since I held off on the CG version.

I'm Convince and Convince approves this Reply

Dude, I want the real crew mode in next gen. All this is great!! Just add crew and it's over

Hey...Stop it!! I was Bynum hair stylist for that year and I was ridiculed almost he whole year.

While we chose the Perm-Fro in the beginning:

We wanted to settle on the Shaquille Sunflower Look. It would have a been a trend setter if not for that damn bowling night.

I'm out....Naji Ramba

# 476 CookNBA03 @ 10/23/13 11:55 PM

In the My GM section. what are RPG elements?

# 477 La Verite @ 10/23/13 11:57 PM

Current gen has been fun but I know its time to upgrade. No mention of blacktop tho outside of park hangouts.

# 478 jarod43 @ 10/23/13 11:58 PM

Damn this sounds to good to be true, somebody pinch me. The myplayer features alone got me hype. I need get my hands on a ps4 or xbox one quick. Can not wait!

# 479 JazzMan @ 10/23/13 11:59 PM

Can't believe the complaints about the lack of offline game modes. What more do ya'll want? A "MyCrib" mode? A "MyDUI" mode? C'mon. It's a basketball game.

Then it's Lord of the Flies out there.

Don't forget though: those games control the patching process. 2K has to go through (and pay) Sony and MS. But, I agree.
