I actually need clarity on this.

"Draft Classes can now be imported and edited at ANY point (read: editing can happen AFTER importing while the season is ongoing)."

Does that mean BOTH importing and editing can happen while the season is ongoing or just editing (after the preseason import)?

The roster/draft class editing stuff sounds great too, especially as someone who spends too much time editing his classes.

@Leftos, could you explain a little more on the roster edit mode? Does it basically make the roster page/ratings into a spreadsheet that you navigate cell by cell? And does it allow any global edits?

You can edit any player, or load/download a whole new draft class, as well as save out the draft class you've been working on while in MyGM/MyLEAGUE into a file that you can reuse later.

For Roster Quick Edit, the detailed roster spreadsheet becomes editable cell by cell. I'll be happy to hear how you think we can improve it.

To the team:

What are all the factors that affect the Rivalry score? Do crappy teams have less a chance of creating a rival?

Can you manually retire jerseys? Will there be a jersey retirement ceremony?

Any new additions within the Edit Staff option?

I think that's all for now. Thanks for the work

Since the Start Today is a mode of its own does that mean we cant Start today in Mygm mode and its really only a myleague experience?

I'm not sure how to start and I'll try to reply as politely as possible, because this is taking a very frustating route on behalf of all the real Sim Ballers out here.

You said there is no Time where the Team had 4 years now to give us a working Free Agency. After 2k13 you shut the mode down - which was the right move imo because Online Association in 2k12 was far away from a solid working mode. Yall brought it back as Leagues where you could do a single season and after that kept it that way for 2 more years.

Last year you told us you wanted to stabilize the mode, but hadn't had time to implement offseason, which was okay, because yall said it would be back this year and we all listend. But NOPE, instead of removing the mode for a couple of years and giving us a FULL ONLINE FRANCHISE MODE, the Team is working around the Free Agency and is giving us a Fantasy Mode. How could yall think "Keepers" would be a solid option to avoid Free Agency? This makes the mode totally irrelevant for all the real League players.

Im 100% sure, im not going to enjoy it, because it's not what it should be. If I want to play Fantasy Basketball, I do that in Fantasy Draft.

Please if you can't promise us when it's going to be what it should be, cut it out and give us a full functional ONLINE ASSOCIATION in 2 or even 3 years from now.

Don't want to sound rude or anything like that but im very disappointed..

I don't think you realize this, but that team is full of Franchise gamers too. They're not holding out on you.. if he says they didn't have time then they didn't. It's a process..

Staff Editing in the Roster Creator

Staff editing is now available outside of MyGM/MyLEAGUE in the Roster Creator. This allows for shared rosters to now include edited/custom staff as part of the roster itself.





Yes!

What does this mean exactly...just curious

For people asking if something (team rivalries, advanced rotations, etc.) is also in MyGM, you can assume the answer is yes unless otherwise stated.

Start Today and Playoffs are separate modes though based on the MyLEAGUE experience, so you can't mix and match them with the MyGM experience. The answer is the MyGM engine needs to be fed data from the very start of the season, and we can't just drop you in on February 3rd and have it work. If there's a huge want for it, we can evaluate that in the future, but we wanted to bring it back bigger and better than ever, and we took extra care of making sure as many systems as possible work exactly as if you had played MyLEAGUE up to that point, as well as allowing you to start in the start of the next offseason when we hit the summer of 2017.

Some other quickfire answers:
- Only 2 jerseys per custom team.
- There's an expansion flow where teams get to protect players before the expansion draft. You can start with an expansion team both when using "start in regular season" and "start from previous offseason". You can start with 1-6 expansion teams to boot. The league and all the franchise features have been adjusted to work with any number of teams between 30 and 36.

I haven't purchased 2K in 4 years. I loved the ability to implement the DLeague so I've stayed with 2k13. The ability to expand in my franchise has me giddy. Already have ideas for expansion drafts and the like. No more young guys riding the FA pine.

Questions though about editing draft classes. Want to understand this correctly.

1. Say we start a MyLeague with a draft class. Play 2 months worth and someone drops a better draft class for people to download. I have the ability to replace my old class with the new one mid season?

Re: NBA 2K17 MyLEAGUE, MyLEAGUE Online & MyGM Blog With Erick Boenisch

Leftos, will guys be aware of how much money is aware in free agency and make their demands based off of that. There should be more guys requesting max money to replicate the Mike Conley type deals

[dom5552]

LOVE everything here. 2 questions, how many teams can be rebranded? And also, can we trade drafted players DURING the draft? (Last couple years they "technically" weren't a part of the team even after you pick them cuz they haven't signed yet)

Re: NBA 2K17 MyLEAGUE, MyLEAGUE Online & MyGM Blog With Erick Boenisch

maybe for nba 2k19 we'll have free agency complete.

More quickfire answers:
- We spent time tuning FA, especially given the new salary cap, to make sure players would ask for realistic amounts, and we're happy with what you'll see with the Day 1 patch, but keep the feedback coming.
- I believe Staff Editing has had more features added to it this year, but I can't remember off the top of my head what those are. If you see any staff parameters that aren't editable that you'd like to see editable in 2K18, let me know.

Quick follow up on expansion, do you HAVE to have a draft? As in, could I expand using one of the legends teams and just use their roster?
