NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

04:00 PM - August 7, 2014 by Steve_OS

We recently had a chance to interview Rob Jones, Sr. Producer Visual Concepts and Erick Boenisch, Sr. Producer, Visual Concepts to talk about a new mode for NBA 2K15 called MyLEAGUE, exclusive for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.

Before we get into the interview, here is a quick rundown on some of the options. In a nutshell, it’s the Association Mode that we all know and loved on old-gen consoles, on steroids.

MyLEAGUE offers both a single season or up to an 80 year franchise experience. You will have complete control over every aspect of how your league plays out.

Yes and no. It's annoying when you go for a still maybe twice when the ball is being brought up and then they get past you and you try to swipe the ball from behind and it intentional fouls.

I agree that is is nice stopping the spamming, but it also can be annoying.

I'm going to rent a game first because the fans in the crowd don't have numbers?

That is the most preposterous thing I've ever heard.

If that prevents a person from buying a game then they will never be satisfied.

I think that's it's intended effect. Haha.

Stop playing James Harden defense. But I do agree that maybe it should cause an intentional foul but not be announced as one that makes no sense in that situation (cause it actually does).

# 566 turty11 @ 08/09/14 11:42 AM

# 567 rashadsnake92 @ 08/09/14 11:46 AM

It'd be nice to have another CAP added for you as a GM instead of your MyPlayer. Kind of hard to believe a 23 year old looking dude is leading a professional organization.

# 569 @marcusjiles @ 08/09/14 09:52 PM

Damn I wish I cared about this, I do not. lol. Not bashing the game but I wont play a second. Just give me a bigger floor, bring a custom roster into MyCareer, and fix some of the bugs and Im good.

Oh cmon this is ridiculous!!!! U a NBA fan or what!!

Just found out about this.
A mode with no VC involved?
Okay 2k, so my boycott of your game was short lived.
I'm back.

But I hope you learned your lesson!

# 572 Trackball @ 08/10/14 04:49 AM

I'm normally a MyCareer guy--played since 2k11, after a budget-induced hiatus since Ben Wallace was on the cover of 2k5.

However, this one interview made me pre-order the game on Amazon, because I want to show developers that listening to the educated* fanbase equals MONEY.

All EA Sports devs, are you paying attention?

*educated, as in knows what makes a basketball game realistic--that is, most members of this board--as opposed to the noobs who want to dunk over three defenders most plays, a la NBA Courtside 2002

When this mode was announced and I thought about how scripted and VC heavy MyCareer is player lock is the 2nd thing I thought of after thinking how lovely this mode sounds.

I can create my guy and just play him in player lock and make my own career like it should be if I'm not feeling MyCareer when more is announced about that mode.

Player lock is a good idea. Hopefully it gets added if it's not in already!

# 575 Bose3399 @ 08/10/14 04:56 PM

Well, that's all well and good, but what about those who want to play an association type mode online?? This doesn't help me in the slightest ... Online Leagues isn't like Online Association is it?

# 576 KasparV @ 08/10/14 07:12 PM

This all sounds very promising, as a mode. The one thing I hope will also be changed is how players are valued. In previous 2k's, it seemed it was 'solely' based on ratings, age and contract. The current play didn't really matter, which is weird, I feel. If I somehow manage to average 20/10/4 with Jonny Flynn, for instance, I feel his player and trade value would have to increase greatly, although he still may be rated somewhere in the 60s

# 577 Don Figures @ 08/10/14 07:13 PM

Sadden by the lack of attention to the online leagues. Our strong gaming community is not interested in off line leagues. They should have implemented online just like the 360 ps3 version. Smh

# 578 jpshua15 @ 08/10/14 07:14 PM

Should I or somebody else make a real MyLEAGUE thread to post our future plans inside the mode itself? Not sure if it feels right to post them in this interview thread.

They haven't gotten to their news about online leagues or the new "Crew"-type mode. Just be patient, news will be posted eventually.
