Maybe I missed this but will CPU-controlled teams relocate? Would be great to start seeing announcements about this without having to initiate it.

Good question, if 2K hasn't made Madison Square Garden like it should be, then I'm redoing it!

Thanks, Czar, that answered one of my earlier questions!

If anyone can answer the other, that would be great: can you make trades during the off season AFTER the draft but BEFORE the start of the new season?

Oh, and I'll add one more: has free agent salary expectations logic been touched? In previous years it has been tied solely to player age, rating and potential, with totally unproven project players unwilling to accept reasonable deals or even league minimum because of their potential ratings. Also, will players react to the market and actually take best bid or will some stars price themselves out, remain unsigned, and end up with dirt cheap or league minimum deals with CPU teams once the season begins?

Ooooh. This means I can rebrand the Pelicans into the New Orleans VooDoo. And I might even be motivated to do so...

Edit: I missed it if it was included, but will designs and stadiums and such also be shareable?

"Drops mic" leaves the Internet and patiently awaits the best sports game of my generation.

How many uniforms can you make for a team? Home, Away Alternate? More than 1 alternate? Looks like it might just be home and away based on the blog wording.

Might be little for a lot of people, but I love the ticker that's added. Maybe I missed it, but it would be dope if it's being shown while you are in a game.

Hopefully, in 2K17, we can get a around the league highlights. Can't wait for that.

I can't act like I'm not hurt by the "myLeague Online" news. Not deserving of the name honestly, its nothing like myLeague.

Was the existence of this mode officially revealed with this blog? If not, it's messed up for them to hype us up with the name "myLeague Online" when its just multiple Season mode.
 
# 110 DatIsraeliGuy @ 08/19/15 05:36 PM
I think I just jizzed myself...

Only thing, will you bring back the option to start a MyGM/League at tthe real life current date? Was an option on 2k13, didn't see it since then, and it was a really cool way to start without the beginning of the season

''Teams value players VERY differently. Let’s take Joe Johnson’s 2015-16 contract as an example. To the right team, Joe Johnson can be an INCREDIBLY value trade piece. He has a massive $25M expiring contract. On a scale of 5-stars, the right team may value him as a 4-star player, solely based on the fact that he can clear a ton of cap in the offseason, thus giving them a chance to make max offers to the big name players of the upcoming free agent class.''

This is the first time it has been mentioned outside of the leaked achievements. Can't exactly blame them for expectations since they described how it worked in the first thing from them that acknowledged its existence

I'm loving the news today. I just hope that create a team is back outside of pro am and MyLeague. It would be great to be able to download and share teams.

FINALLY! I've had this idea for years now so I'm freaking pumped that it's finally in! (Though my idea also includes expansion teams, but first things first!)

Proof of how long I've waited on this...

So ladies and gentlemen, you are welcome hahaha

To the 2K team, the answer is yes, I will accept payment for you finally implementing my idea into the game in the form of 1 game per year until death do we part.

Yea, wish they didn't include the Online My League news with all of the other offline stuff. It hurts even more than offline gets everything imaginable and online league get screwed again. I wish it was in a separate blog post. This online my league is basically last years leagues with more admin options and an ability to restart. I'm not sure how many seasons leagues will actually be fun considering it's just recycled players who don't get any better. I can imagine people just trading to trade just because they're bored of using the same players.

Once I saw that news was going to be out for Online My League I was hyped. Then I saw there is no free agency/draft or anything relating to an actual franchise I lost all interest.

It's 2015 we should be able to have an online mutiplayer franchise mode. Especially in a game that puts so much in other modes and has pissed on the online league community for the past couple of years. They should have called this online leagues and not online my league. It's nothing like My League.

Don't have to only use this feature to rebrand... Christmas jerseys anyone?

Having community members on the squad is transparent in the blog. It reads like it was written by us.
If I say "we're listening" I get lots of tweets that are filled with vitriol. But it's the truth. The discussions and work our dev's put in never ceases to amaze me. So immensely proud of them and am glad you guys are enjoying what we have in store for these modes.

The blog says you can download other people's creations, so I think sharing is a yes!!
 
# 119 raiderphantom @ 08/19/15 05:47 PM
TI had a bunch of questions but now I'm simply in shock. Where am I?


Umm one stat I would really like to see, and I apologize if it's already in, is team offensive/defensive efficiency. It's a much better gauge for your team than ppg or points allowed per game. http://espn.go.com/nba/hollinger/teamstats

I'm still a bit foggy how online leagues will work. Are there just no contracts or progression? Or else where would free agents end up? Sorry if I missed it. That was a lot of info to take in. Still trying to calm myself down.

Need...gameplay...info...


Edit: Are there tournaments/playoffs modes as an alternative?

Yep. All I can blame them for now is poor name choice.
