Re: Online leagues 2k15, The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

Everytime i try to accept a league invite i get error ce-348780 and get sent back to that blue screen. Are there any work arounds?

Try creating another profile to see if you can accept it with that one. On XB1, you can create multiple profiles. I dont know if thats the case for PS4.

I saw another issue on this mode on twitter yesterday. I guess the creator of the league only gets home games.

Brilliant 2k!!

This. Plus the fact that league games, stats, and standings are not registering consistently, or in some cases at all; with or without custom rosters. The custom rosters that sometimes glitch during upload and prevent the league from getting of the ground. Invites are hit or miss in terms of users ability to accept them. League games, though lag free, seemingly tend to drop through no fault of the users connection. Every day, someone finds another league crippling glitch that renders moot, any potential work around for this embarrasment of a mode.

Apparently the issue of games not registering dates back to last year's current gen OLs, to the extent that SteveOS posted the thread below last January, with Ronnie2k claiming that OLs had finally been fixed. So if past is prologue, we can deduce that 2k will once again put this mode low on its priority list for fixes. If we have to wait till January again this year...welp......




Listen to the most recent PRESS ROW PODCAST (Fast forward to the 1:00 hour mark), where host Rich Grisham laments the fact that 2k, and ostensibly, Rob Jones, pre-release, mislead him to believe that OL's had actually gotten some attention this year. Grisham goes on to claim that 2k is reaching out to him for clarification or some kind of apology for this misinformation (like that does us any good). I emailed Grisham and the show for them to acknowledge and discuss whatever information 2k passes on to him for transparency. God knows this community has been begging for transparency on a mode that 2k seems intent to kill off. This concerted approach of stripping this mode to the barebones year over year, does not bode well for a potential patch, let alone the possibility of inclusion in future iterations.

IF THE GAMES DO NOT REGISTER, ITS TIME TO ACCEPT REALITY AND FOLLOW JERRY's LEAD...

I've said that the mode is not ready for my attention with missing features. But if the games are not registering, you may as well had not shipped this mode! This is terrible.

Is Online League only involved your friends?? I can't find any league. If that's the case, it sucks.

amedawg00, you are the god of this thread. I appreciate very much all the passion you put into this.

Games not registering is just crazy...

For our league that is fine, we have gotten to the point where we introduced in our own website MANUALLY all the stats of a game and we have our standings, but that is just mental.

The gameplay is too good to abandon the game. Please post a link to your website lvnba. Also if anyone has a link to coach2ks spreadsheet on Google docs, please post that as well. 2k has driven this community to the dark ages of the pen and paper leagues in 2014, as if it were the pre-internet era. In an era where madden has successfully implemented a connected franchise mode, 2k has given us pen and paper online leagues. At this point I wouldn't even mind them monetizing this mode with VC or even making it a paid DLC, if that's what it takes to get a working online franchise mode for current gen. The dagger is not being able to go back to last gen with 2k removing OA in 2k15 in order to please the crew heads.

All we want to do is enjoy the game against actual humans. Most members of this community are hardcore NBA fans who want to replicate the reality of the sport on the virtual hardwood. The RPG and fantasy elements of the other modes does not move the needle for us. I don't care how much the AI has improved. It will never approximate the intelligence of a skilled user on the sticks.

All the devs that frequent this forum and we get a cameo appearance from one of them, while the marketing guy serves us platitudes of "we are providing feedback to the devs." I gave current gen 2k14 a pass for a shortened dev cycle and transition to a new console. Seriously, what's the excuse this year for such an abysmal effort in regards to online leagues this year?

Great post! I agree 1000%! I'm so frustrated with this and no response from 2k. Reading last few pages of this thread is so disheartening! I have tried to start test league for pre season games for our lg members to no avail. Number 1 I can't set 1 up some days, then when I do get through I get screen where I can't see teams to pick. Then after I pick team (bcus I know my teams overall) I invite members who can't even join as it won't let them.

I'm having a hard time biting my tongue and holding back my extreme disappointment and anger here. Online leagues is why I buy the game. The gameplay is great but I might have to stop buying this game and product until they get this right. For the 1st time I'm living offline and will play a my league season but it's not where I want to be spending the majority of my time. I want to play other users in a competitive league. There is nothing like it when you got 30 good owners!

All I want is some answers. Let us know your plan for online leagues this year and next. Will they be focusing on getting these issues addressed through server or a patch and when? Will they be putting some love and resources here in the future? I mean ld2k said he was passing all this info to devs in past years but apparently it falls on deaf ears. Just let us know what's up so we can move forward 1 way or another. That's all we ask is for some communication and answers.

Hi guys,

I'm a frequent reader of this forum (although i don't post often), and a player in a 8-year old French league, FNBA.

After a one-year hiatus due to the disaster that was NBA 2k14 for Xbox One, we are trying to start a new season this week (with 18 players) so I'm willing to exchange on our experiences so we can try to make the best of this mode. I've read a few pages of this thread and while I was pretty depressed initially, maybe we can find something that can work, in spite of 2k once again... It seems that each year, we have to find workarounds (from 2k7's broken stats on the website to broken online associations)

Re: Online leagues 2k15, The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

I gave online leagues a try during the week with my friend (2 Players league for testing purposes), I didn't look if the stats were being registered, but the game results were. Once we got to the NBA Finals, there is no NBA Finals atmosphere and the Finals games were not being registered.

Earlier in the week, the games were registering. As of Friday night, the games stopped registering. Case in point, my friend and I just played a gm in 2 man test league. Ample time has elapsed for the server to register the game but it only does so by acknowledging the game with the current streak stat of 1 and -1. The record still shows 0-0.



And thanks for the info on the lack of a playoff atmosphere when you tested. Another slap in the face considering the playoff atmospheres of last gen OAs when they weren't glitching. Man last gen OAs weren't perfect by any stretch of the imagination but boy would we all go running back to them if only they weren't taken out of the game completely on last gen.

Let's just hope fixes can be patched in and we can find workarounds as Online League is my favorite mode of the game.

Holy crap! It recorded the streak, but didn't update the record. Another "WOW!". I'm sorry guys. I'm just not going to come to this thread so much. Every time I do, I learn something ELSE is broken or missing, and it just ruins my day.

Thanks for putting in the work amedawg! You are the boss! Thanks to you and this thread - VC should have a BIBLE on what to fix.

I will give you something better, a video tutorial for our new website system. Explaining how to introduce game scores and stats manually:

(around 7:00 mark you will see me introducing random stats in case you want to skip)

Anyway, this is the old site: http://app.lvnba.es:8080/LVNBA_WEB/ and this is the new one under construction http://lvnba.com/
