NBA 2K14: MyGM Developer Diary

04:07 PM - November 8, 2013 by RaychelSnr

Franchise modes are a passion for me; they are my go-to mode in any sports game. I truly enjoy the challenge in taking a struggling team and rebuilding them into one of the best teams in the league. It’s a very cerebral experience, one that requires a certain level of shrewdness. For years, our award winning Association mode has put you through the trials and tribulations of building a team that can co-exist while trying to win titles. We had some pretty defining features during the last generation in The Association, but for this generation, it’s a whole new game.

It is an exaggeration but the AI logic has always been poor.

Posters are taking it as a matter of faith that it will be good.

This is why lots of us will be bemoaning the 30 team control is gone.

Yes of course, no one can deny that the CPU AI has to be significantly improved for this mode to succeed.

My Coli Breh, you have the option to just play basketball. that was reveal some time ago, you shouldn't have no worries, ballers can still ball and sim heads will sim it up.

I think you can. Just set all the MyGM options to auto pilot and enjoy

I am left feeling so torn right now. One part of me is super excited to try this mode and seeing the endless possibilities you can have for this current game on the PS4. My goodness it looks great. And depending on what team you pick you your GM style you choose can help you out right out of the gate. A micro-managers wet dream.

On the other hand those possibilities have me wishing that there was a 30 team option in this beast of a mode. Has me wishing for the D-League and Summer League. Some training camp. My goodness I was left looking like Kobe

And when it trades my Monta Ellis for draft picks??

They should have left 30 team control in. Hopefully season has it.

It should be in next year. If so then that will be great

# 68 Atax1s @ 11/08/13 05:25 PM

This is going to be raw!

# 69 Trilluminary @ 11/08/13 05:25 PM

ok well since its obviously thanksgiving here im going to ask for some gravy

will we be able to assign the generational player attribute to custom draft classes?

and is it just that player type, or can we get career backup, bust, late bloomer, journyman, unpredictable (beasley , cousins)?

# 70 basehead617 @ 11/08/13 05:29 PM

Okay but when are they going to release DETAILS?

# 71 Skuxx24 @ 11/08/13 05:31 PM

With all this news coming out still get a feeling the ai logic Esp in trades and drafting and free agency will be screwed up hopefully the season mode they talked about has these features incorporated and 30 team control would play that if that was the case

# 72 shawnydee @ 11/08/13 05:40 PM

Please put me to sleep someone till the 15. Wow this mode is going to be more then amazing cant wait even if I still dont know which team id like to make contender with. Im glad ive stick to my ps4 preorder instead of changing it for the xone.

# 73 threattonature @ 11/08/13 05:40 PM

That's all I've been wanting to see and loved every word of it. Once the game drops and I hear gameplay is solid I'm definitely ready to give it a crack.

# 74 insideoutside15 @ 11/08/13 05:43 PM

Pretty much the only thing left to hope for is that you can turn off auto-save. That drove me crazy in 2k13.

# 75 Pr33mo @ 11/08/13 05:46 PM

Can someone please explain the logic of controlling all 30 teams ( not being funny) do you play games with one? And if your main team is Knicks, when does one decide that the "1st place" nets need to make a trade for example. How is it fun if u can manipulate the entire league whenever you please

And I'm not being funny I really want to make sense of this. I've been following this forum for years and I've never heard this being a topic until the removed it.

And for the guy who wants the no frills association just think about the association settings in current Gen. Its just more detailed now your doing all of the same things. Except better lol

# 76 Mparas1432 @ 11/08/13 05:48 PM

I wonder if MyGM's season length can vary. They mention for season mode, but I like to play every game out. Normally I just play 29.

The mode still sounds awesome though. I hope it has a better interface than CCM, but I'm sure it will.

Fair question.

From my perspective, I love being able to play with rosters that are the same as the real NBA. When controlling 30 teams I can sign/trade to reflect what is actually happening.

I dont want to let the AI decide that the Clippers need another PG and trade for Jrue Holiday.

This type of stuff plagues 2K AI logic

News keeps getting better and better. This developer diary answered all the questions/requests I had about the mode and more and should keep many people happy despite the removal of multi-team association.

I personally love that retired players and assistants can now be hired as head coaches. Haven't seen that since the PS2/Xbox versions of Madden's Owner Mode. Great addition that adds a ton of immersion to the game, not to mention something I wanted to see for a while in Association.

Some of the negativity around the forums is mindboggling. God forbid a development team wants to change something up. With that being said, you probably could be able to automate or skip past most of the options and still play "normally". I, on the other hand, love this new direction and am genuinely interested in trying it out.

# 79 jeremym480 @ 11/08/13 05:57 PM

Just quickly skimmed over the writeup before leaving work. Everything sounds amazing.

I do have to questions though that I may have missed.

1) Is there real life draft order in? (example will Boston have Brooklyn's 1st round draft picks for the next 3 years)

2) Is the ability to intervene in games in?

# 80 jeb4056 @ 11/08/13 06:04 PM

Didn't see this mentioned, does anyone know if Couch Co-op is available in the myGM mode? The mode sounds great, just want to be able to play on a team with my friends in a franchise setting (not single games or single seasons)
