Re: NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

Judging by them dodging my question, online leagues haven't been fixed.

Umm it's a safe bet playing offline has become a thing of the past. Maybe a few thousand (5-6000) folks might play offline....but there's millions of folks who live in 2014 and have access to the internet are big time sports fans and would presumably be interested in ONLINE modes that cater to them.

I'm finally happy offline association gets the mode its fans have been asking for on OS for quite some time now, but lets not get things misconstrued here, YOU GUYS ARE NOT the majority and never will be when you break down the demographics of folks that play NBA 2K.

Cool. Could you tell me how exactly you came to that "5-6000" number? What data did you use to quantify it? Do you work for 2k? Because it's either inside knowledge or an uneducated guess.... My money is on the latter.

LOL. Where did you get those BS numbers? 5-6k. I have access to the internet and Live and PS+ and I have no interest in a online league. There are also millions who own current and next gen systems who dont even have Live or PS+.

48 million people have purchased Live (total number not current subscribers) and over 80 million Ones and 360s have been sold. So at the most 45% of Xbox owners dont have an internet service and arent interested in online play. AT BEST.

I hope that we can get more data about online leagues apart from that short info.

Doesnt this answer your question:

"However, for those wanting to play online, we have added requested functionality to Online Leagues as well working heavily on the stability of the mode. NBA 2K15 has benefited from lessons learned last year, improved online support both from first party and internal changes, as well as a full QA cycle on the mode."

Re: NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

Awesome initial announcement!

[Jakeness23]

80 years? Holy hell. You know what would help with that? Yep, the same thing I preach for every sports game. Expansions, relocations (ability to edit teams from top to bottom; jerseys, colors, logos, etc, including current teams). But that may be a lost cause.

Re: NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

Damn,why are the online only guys getting so salty? They gear every other game mode towards the online side of things, they finally give us guys that don't care for the online side of things something to be excited about.....and all I see are jokers talking about how "you're not the majority" and "oh,they forgot about the online folks" give me a break.

Dam with everything being online connected I don't understand why this mode isn't able to be used with friends online.

Re: NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE ARE CHEERING. THEY CLEARLY NOTE THAT THIS MYLEAGUE MODE IS ONLY AN OFFLINE LOCAL GAME MODE. I DON'T NEED AN OFFLINE GAME MODE I WANT TO PLAY THIS THE SAME WAY I PLAYED MY ASSOCIATION, WITH MY FRIENDS ONLINE. WHATS THE POINT OF HAVING AN XBOX LIVE SUBSCRIPTION IF COMPANIES LIKE 2K SPORTS ARE JUST GOING TO ***** FOOT AROUND AND NOT TAILOR ALL OF THEIR GAMEPLAY TO BOTH ONLINE AND OFFLINE MODES? PEOPLE LIKE ONLINE MULTIPLAYER, MAKE MYLEAGUES ONLINE MULTIPLAYER. WILL ONLINE LEAGUES MODE HAVE THE SAME CONTROLLING ABILITY AS MYLEAGUES MODE? AND WILL IT ALSO ALLOW YOU TO GO UP TO 80YEARS? IF NOT THEN DON'T WASTE MY TIME WITH YOUR BULL****!!!!!!!!!!

Re: NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

Once again it will feel like you're actually getting something substantial for your money--a fully featured and functional core game mode that you can play regardless of your internet connection or the status of their unpredictable servers. Basketball gaming is back without the unnecessary headaches of connectivity and Virtual Currency. I went from definitely won't buy to definitely will buy, so mission accomplished, 2K.

Re: NBA 2K15 MyLEAGUE Interview

For all the ONLINE ONLY players - today's announcement was not for you. There is more to come. Can you let us association guys have our moment?

the moment they said offline saves I went from I ain't buying to yeah,I'm picking up. I just didn't want anything to do with the online saves.
