Oh my fault then, I thought both were announced already. That is why I was wondering why you were like it would take so much to make them available in Exhibition mode as well.

I think what DC meant, customized real d-league teams with rosters and arenas that can be used. not a d-league mode like summer league...sounds like a great idea.

D-League teams definitely won't be in 2K16, but a thread like this expressing interest shouldn't be pushed off until February when the game is "known" to be developed. In truth, they begin developing the next iteration shortly afterward their most recent release.

Showing that people want the D-League and even the Euroleague in the game and included in various modes can come early. If it wasn't for wish lists, there are things 2K/Visual Concepts wouldn't be doing rn like myLeague mode possibly. The D-League definitely needs to be in 2K17 because without it, the Summer Circuit won't be used to its full potential, nor would the free agency be. All of those lower rated players that never get picked up have to play somewhere and the Euroleague and D-League inclusion in 2K17's modes is the perfect way for that to happen. Immersion, immersion, immersion. With the power they have now, they can definitely include these teams with customization even if they don't have the real rosters.

With the editing tool I think a D-league mode could happen. the only thing is that maybe you have to add more teams to the franchise when you swap out the 30-team in different cities.

I would love a ch2k16 in franchise if that's possible.

I could see them possibly making the D League playable but I can't see them adding and maintaining the actual rosters

Either way it's not my thing but hopefully they look out for you DC

Yea there is no way they would add the real rosters of the D-League. But if you remember 2K12, they didn't even let us edit the names of the D-League players. Everything else but the Vitals.

Which I hated.

But Vlad looked out

I suggested February because what will happen to this thread is that in a week it will disappear and no one will remember it. Better to post something like this later on IMO.

Shouldn't editing the name of a real life player be a thing that shouldn't be allowed?

Is what you are suggesting something like " I want to rename Kobe Bryant to Lennard Kleenex" or something like that.

Or are you referring to changing the name of "created" players that aren't actually real?

There shouldn't be restrictions on Name Editing unless it is going to throw things out of whack.

2K15 allowed us to edit names of REAL NBA Players though.

But I didn't understand why they locked names of D-League players in 2K12 when they were essentially Auto-Generated Created Players. I never understood that

Yeah that was odd. I always rename Terry Cummings from the 84-85 Bucks Charles Barkley. He's pretty dang close. But we couldn't rename the NBDL guys. Weird. As a franchise buff, I want to see this return. Initially, it could be populated with CAP players, just allow us to edit them. Then in future years in our MyLeague/MyGM they would eventually be filled with real/incoming lower rated developing players.

I don't exactly think the NBAPA is interested in that, which is probably why it's not in the game,lol.

Umm we can change the name of NBA players in the game. I am using a fictional roster on Xbox 1 where I hear the announcers refer to a couple of my guys as Dikembe Mutombo and Sebastian Telfair. If I hear more I will post them here. But those are the 2 I remember off the top of my head.

You mean that you can rename a real player with a different name or do you mean calling a created player by a real name?

I'm not aware of being able to rename actual players names in the game. And it would be very odd if you can rename a real player but not change his headband.

A real player and changing their name. I did it with Dikembe, and another player who was a duplicate in the roster when I was considering run an all classic franchise. And they still called them Dikembe and whoever the other guy was.

That's insane. So if the issue with headbands seemingly has absolutely nothing to do with a players likeness (my theory on why it's not been in the game), then what is the hold up?

This entire time I was thinking it was an NBAPA issue.

Anyway, thanks for clarifying.
