And the return of scripted cutscenes, but no real sense of "choose your destiny" as the trailer proclaims. Would have liked to seen an example of the branching storyline, with different cutscenes.

Overall, little was gleamed from this.


I think the cutscenes will be based on your reactions to questions etc although that cutscene we saw about the shoes will probably be for everyone since you choose that right away this year

agreed sir! 2k has got us ol heads wrapped up already. its all about that next generation of gamers right now lol. there are of ton of kids that play mycareer and are probably not allowed to go online ( some parents watch these things lol). they say mycareer is their most played mode by far so i can see why they continue with the storyline...funny part is, back in the day we used to ask for modes EXACTLY like what mycareer is now, and now that we have it - we want it another way lol

My "my player" came out pretty good last year. There were some facial features that could have adjusted further and I wish we had better options for hair and facial hair but my player definitely resembled me.

I also didn't think he stood out on the court as an obvious CAP. I mean if I looked closely and compared him to authentic nba players I could noticed a difference but I didn't see it as a glaring issue.

I hope, and assume, this will be similar to last year where the story aspect of the mode only lasted a couple seasons. The story was easily my least favorite part of the mode. I appreciate the effort of incorporating a story mode into a sports game but when it's suppose to be "my" story and there are things out of my control that don't reflect me it just doesn't feel right.

I'd much prefer a story mode where we can choose a certain player from the league or history of the league and play through their journey. Like if we could play as Kobe and go from his rookie season to his retirement. Obviously not playing every single game in his career but some highlights from his career. It could be similar to the Jordan mode in 2k11 just with more story elements and maybe even the option to alter history. So for example if we are playing as Kobe maybe we demand a trade at some point, decide to sign else where, or encourage the front office to sign or trade for certain players that Kobe never played with.

I'm just not crazy about the mode being "my career" but the story has a ton of linear elements that removes our own personality from the story and our my player.

Unless you're uglier than the guy you just described can't you just scan your face?

Like people are complaining just to complain. It's not even constructive criticism anymore.
Sorry if I derail the thread but this is something that's been bothering me on this site. Nothing wrong with complaints and criticism but I feel like people are focusing on the negatives of the game and ignoring the positives. Its like 2k can do 7 out of 10 things right but people will harp on those 3 things done incorrect instead of being happy about the 7 things 2k got right. At the end of the day it's a videogame, it's not going to be perfect. Criticism will make the game and series better in the long run but let's not down play the effort the team puts into the game year in and year out. At least we aren't in a situation like the dark days of madden where each release was hardly an improvement from the year before. Things could be better yes but things could also be far worse.

This looks flat out cheesy.. Where is the individuality. The reason why i stopped playing this mode was because of the fact that the story line effects actual gameplay. Your gonna have that one game that you come down from a deficit. Your gonna have that one game where you make a buzzer beater. I just want to play basketball. Let the results speak for themselves. Im not trying to see a basketball movie. I wanna play a basketball video game.

I hear ya but there are those that like the cut scenes, the storylines, the choices along WITH the basketball. I enjoy it all.

Ha... he looks almost 100% like my player in 2k16.
 
# 57 Goffs @ 09/07/16 01:30 PM
I'm OK with the cheesy stuff just as long I can skip it.

Can't wait to play on rookie casual to stat pad and unlock everything for pro am asap.
 
# 59 RipCityAndy @ 09/07/16 01:33 PM
OK.... I've watched it a couple times. I thought maybe I missed something the first time, but I've com to the conclusion that this trailer is simply underwhelming.
