Anyway, extremely passionate about 2k as a whole but I mostly play parks and pro-am.. I just have never seen a game mode news/trailers released after the game drops lol that's unheard of. But I hopeeeeeeee that what you're saying is true lol, big fan of MyParks.. Would be highly disappointing if they cut us short this year.

But I'll give them the benefit of the doubt as well, I hope they have some good news and yea I heard Ronnie saying about going somewhere tomorrow lol, who knows if it might be related.

But definetely I hope we can link up, I almost got my Pro-Am squad ready up full.. would love to play when the game is out, we should def stay in touch.
oh yea we can definitely link up - the park is one of the most profitable modes (vc) besides myteam (i think). theyre gonna take care of the park guys. i have faith in them

plus with ALL the gameplay adjustments they dicussed in this stream - im actually looking forward to see how it will translate to the competitive modes. i also really enjoyed hearing OG discuss "this archatype vs that archatype" lmao. every answer was "it depends who you wanna be" and thats what im looking forward to the most. make YOUR player the way YOU want and ball out!! thursday cant get here fast enough

That's what happens this year when you attempt an alley to someone who isn't near the hoop they catch it mid air and attempt to put it in. The point of it is more for buzzer beats especially when inbounding the ball.

Any explanation on the rationale to prevent them blogging? Guess 2k is going back to its roots of DIY when it comes to figuring out all these options as you play. Very curious decision. Will lead to many conspiracy theories about placebo settings without their insights and explanations imo. Hope 2k reconsiders the self imposed gag order on OG and Czar.

I would add, if 2k really wants to sustain what has been building as a positive cycle of community input for the design team, putting a gag on OG and Czar as members of the design team is a. . . questionable decision.

OS has taken action to manage this forum more closely out of respect to its constructive community members and out of respect to your team at 2k. People here collectively spent hundreds of hours playing the game and providing constructive input in the impressions, wish list and bug threads this past year, and that was work 2k could not replicate or pay for internally.

In that light, it doesn't seem like too much to ask to inform all those people about the in depth game play improvements that resulted from all those hours of work prior to game release. That's how you build and sustain what we've been doing together to help each other.

Dev's are very busy people. I was actually trying to get one out for everyone. But not everything is my decision, either. Excited he got to share some info on today's broadcast though. Good stuff in there from OG.

Scott would be the 1st one to tell you I was lobbying for it. Proud of their entire team. Going forward, if these are things you guys want (and I know you do), I will do my best to make it happen in the future. Promised.

I take it from this that the decision not to have OG and Czar blog this year came from them because they are (understandably) busy, and not from marketing.

I'm not arguing, just asking, am I hearing that right?

LD are you up for answering two My Player questions by chance or are you just hanging answering gameplay stuff? Just curious I can save it for another day man.

Yeah I have that sick feeling we might lose that game 7 in Cleveland. That will be tough to swallow for sure.

Ok thanks man... real fast.

1. How many years is My Player career?

2. If your My Player gets traded or hits FA, does Justice follow you to a different team or do you eventually get to go separate ways? (i understand you may not be able to answer, but wanted to ask)

Thanks!!!

It'd be nice to have a Dev blog but at this point, it wouldn't matter to me. Plus, just more stuff to unearth playing the game. Other games are notorious for putting max info out before launch so expectations skyrocket and there really aren't many surprises.

1. Not sure, I'd have to ask. It depends, though.
2. This is a great question - and something the team has thought about. Depends on if you want that Orange Juice or not. Drink up.. or don't. We'll have to see what happens.

Real talk LD

If you want to relay something, relay some of the things we wish to keep in the game for next year, like the new improved branched dribbling system.

It really is noice.
