NBA 2K17 MyLEAGUE, MyLEAGUE Online & MyGM Blog With Erick Boenisch

Innovation. Authenticity. Engagement.

These are the three tenets that the franchise team has been working under for the last couple of years, and it has produced some truly unique content. We have another feature set this year that will both challenge the norm and continue to drive this portion of the sports gaming industry.

The people I am fortunate enough to work with on the MyGM/MyLEAGUE team are of a different ilk. Intense�is the word I would use to describe them. To Dave Z, Tim, Brad, Barry, Leftos, Yu, and Kefei, I salute you. For everyone else out there, let�s go learn what these fine folks have created for you this year!

I�m going to write this blog a little differently than I have in the past. We covered a lot of ground this year. I want to make sure you can understand the breadth of our scope this year, so I am going to write this in more of a list format so you can quickly consume what we have been up to. Without much further ado�

Staff Editing in the Roster Creator
Staff editing is now available outside of MyGM/MyLEAGUE in the Roster Creator. This allows for shared rosters to now include edited/custom staff as part of the roster itself.

Yes!

	Team Rivals We have a new Team Rivals feature in the game this year that does a really great job of selling the drama of playing a game against a rival. When playing in such a game, the atmosphere will look and feel different compared to a game against a non-rival. As it should! You want to FEEL the energy when Cleveland comes to the Oracle. Driving this system is an all-new backend that is constantly changing the rival score between teams. For example, if you are playing a game with playoff implications that results in a lot of physical play (technicals), you can expect such a game to ratchet up the temperature with respect to the rival score. In total, there are over 20 factors that we are constantly looking at, constantly evaluating, to determine the appropriate rival level one team should have with another.

Only thing I don't like is drafting free agents Online. Not sure why they just can't have normal free agency.

Other than that I can't wait!

Dude..advanced rotations just made my entire day. Me Like

One question...if we use a custom roster, can we still start prior to the 2016 offseason?
Would love to be able to use a custom roster and import a custom draft class prior to 2016 offseason

	Offseason Injuries Injuries have been added to the Summer League period of the offseason. While very rare, injuries that carry over into the regular season can now occur.

# 13 jada855 @ 09/09/16 02:20 PM

Ladies and Gentlemen this is impressive.

Can anyone with the game explain what happens when you use player lock in My League and are subbed out/in. Does the screen fade to black and then you are subbed back in? Hoping they updated this.

This is where I really, REALLY hope they're not BSing us when they tell us the atmosphere/crowd is better. Because if it is, then this is great news to hear. But again, that's dependent on the improvements they've said they made.

	Advanced Rotations For those of you who really want to take charge of your on-court units, we are introducing a new feature called Advanced Rotations that allows you to control exactly who is on the court for each minute of the game. Devise gameplans that detail exactly how long you want your starting five on the floor to start the game, when the second unit should come in, and what position each player plays as different units sub in and out over the course of the game. The sheer amount of control you now have here is unparalleled in sports gaming.

Been waiting for this for a long time.

At this point, I just want the game in my hands now.

Well you can you keep all 15 and then when the next draft comes you will have to drop somebody.

# 17 bigmike0077 @ 09/09/16 02:25 PM

just WOW, as a MyGm player, this is all just wow

My only question, If i start With an Expansion Team, How exactly does it work. I do an expansion draft, but is there an entry draft before the season starts aswell? and if there is, Is it with generated players or Do we redo the 2016 Entry draft with Ben Simmons, Ingram etc??

Thing is, to some it may never be enough if it's not exactly like they want, while to others it's a great improvement and welcomed.

So how do we know if they're BSing or not?

# 19 Junior Moe @ 09/09/16 02:30 PM

Damn, there's some really nice stuff in there. Some of it is kind of overwhelming to be honest. I cant wait to see how the rivalry feature plays out, though. Absolutely love the player jersey retirements. It just makes the league feel like it's living and breathing. Disappointed about no NBDL, Euroleague or wrap up show like College Hoops Tonight. But they put in some serious work this year. Erick's last paragraph gives me hope for these features and more in the future.

We'll know once we get the game in our hands.

That's why I said in the other thread about this that showing us 2 min trailers of rim sounds and the ball hitting the floor isn't going to show/tell us anything and are pretty much a waste of time. Hell, no trailer would...just pretty much gameplay videos will at this point.

I'm trying to hold out hope that they finally get it right this year...but if they don't, then I'm sure this game will be sitting on the side for me by January like it was last year.
