Just gotta wait for the roster makers to save us with draft classes.

I know ETP will rescue us soon enough

I've been keeping tabs on community day and these are some of things that's been revealed from people who were there.


1. Rep In Walk On PRO-AM.
2. There will be another 250k tourney for Pro-Am and winners will go to All Star Weekend. Apparently qualifying is completely different for 2k17 than 2k16. Teams who put in work in the mode will more than likely qualify for the tourney.
3. You can switch positions in PRO-AM. If the PG is playing horrible at the one the 2 guard can officially change to PG. Pretty much position swap.
3. Dribbling is different. Fatigue is involved and you have to string your moves together smoothly or you'll lose the ball. Dribbling has a steeper learning curve this year.
4. You can joins friends MyPark from the main menu
5. Timing layups are relatively easy and shouldn't give people a problem.
6. Computer AI is better in 2k17
7. Greens aren't 100% again this year.
8. According to DEVS fatigue will play a factor in MyPark. No more abusing turbo all game.


Overall the game is more fluid, game speed is faster, and the defense is even better this year.


Checkout @_SooFarGone_ @DmanUnt2014 @CashNastyGaming etc. twitters for more info. They got to play the game early and have been dropping updates on twitter since.

Glad to hear that, about the first one.

The 2nd one though...the tears are gonna be flowing like the Mississippi on that one.

Greens are 100% this year Pack, Mike confirmed it.
 
# 246 ProfessaPackMan @ 08/31/16 11:31 AM
Hmmm, not sure how I feel about that one...

Some things that stood out to me:
Quote:
in all 30 NBA Arenas they recorded the sound of the balls, fans, buzzer and more
That's the kind of detail that made me love 2K in the first place. (Y)

Interesting.
Quote:

Meh. I don't really care about any of that stuff. Uh oh. I have a feeling the fundamental issues of the game will remain the same.
Quote:

Pick protection. It only took them 4-5 years of people asking for it. But that's good news.
Quote:
New Features: Jersey Retirement, Uniform Update (X-Mas etc get later in the game), Offseason trades possible, roster and draft classes are easier to edit
Jersey retirement and easier editing are huge additions. Half the fun of MyLEAGUE is making history with the players. And better customizability is always good. Still hoping you can edit staff members and owners though.
Quote:

Hmm. There's no way he personally knows that for sure. Now i know he's just a conduit for 2k to release info.
Quote:

Smart Coach: Assistant gives detailed informations an coaching (example go over the block at KD)
30 new freelance offenses, new team schemes, new transition offense/defense, mismatches will be recognized and will get attacked
That all sounds great but are the schemes attached to the TEAM or the COACH?
Quote:
individually tactics against certain players (example hard closeouts againts Curry)
Pretty sure that was in the game last season.
Quote:

Not sure what that means exactly but the fact that that kind of thing is getting a mention is a positive.

Overall that's pretty positive. (Y)

I'm starving for a college hoops video game can't they just make one with fake players and users can make there own rosters if they want. You're seeing them implement 10 teams in 2k17 why not just make a college hoops game. It's fun to recruit and take teams to the tournament. That's a greedy move cause they can't make long term money on it because people will just make new rosters every year instead of buying a new copies with new rosters. That's the key to sports gaming is the newest rosters. That's what makes people spend the 60 dollars we're paying for a roster update. I have been doing it with ncaa march madness 10 but it's becoming stale.

Not enough demand.

I am with you; except for that March Madness EA stuff, I prefer and still occasionally run with my dynasty in College Hoops 2k8. Great game!

My guess is they won't make a playable one for sure, because I believe their stats showed them people did not play summer league after they put it in last year. I noticed they cut some resources to that game element with one of last year's patches.

I do hope they may at least add something closer to a text or simcast type d league element, though. Since they went to the bother of adding more draft elements to trades, maybe they created a way to draft & develop in d league or maybe even stash in Europe.

Anyway, that's my hope.

I'm shocked no one leaked shady's intro yet. Someone pm that guy so he can record it.
 
# 256 Jrocc23 @ 08/31/16 04:18 PM
Wish he recorded more gameplay. That intro was the same as 2K16.

Are they finding a better way to handle team playbooks for MyTeam?

They really need to let us simply create a custom playbook!

If by making it playable and gave the user a payoff in player development somehow, then it would be worthwhile.

I think if they had done something like that with summer league last year, people would have used it.
