    i don't mind that being gone, what I Do mind is that the broadcast presentation continues to be a sore spot for the series. And if you're to do a pregame, really get into depth what really matters like head to head matchups.

    Where are the head to head matchups and stats for the stars during the game and after? why can't we get real time stats continuously popping up on screen like they on ESPN? This is the main gripe I've had with the series. You can omit the pregame if you want, but I like seeing stats during the game, not having to pause it to get to box scores.

      I wish there was the option to have either a shoot around in a gym or mini games like FIFA while the game loads.

      I don't really watch the pre-game show anymore.

        I just hope I don’t get unskippable 2 minute advertisements before I can play the game I paid $60 for that also makes millions in microtransactions annually. Biggest bogus move in 2K history. But I know that’s probably a pipe dream, so I’m prepared for disappointment.

          Glad to see skyline/exteriors are still in. The Lakers are the only team in the game not to get any which is weird since the Clippers get exterior shots of Staples Center.

            The pseudo TNT thing is useless and actually detracted from the game.

              Anybody else find it strange we haven't got some sort of presentation blog or anything. That's usually one of their first post

                hopefully they remove the pregame, half time, and the stupid interviews before the 4th or at least allow them to be skipped. The only people that like those are people who have never played and are watching the demo.

                  It’s never good to broadly assume things about a game played by millions. I actually enjoy the halftime highlights.

                    Okay, well at least allow people to skip it. They say the same thing over and over and over again. If you actually play MyLeague or another mode, you will get bored of them after about 20 games because you will have seen all the skits they have in the game.

                      This thread shows why we keep getting games that don't build upon the older ones smh.

                        Wait...you can't skip it in myleague? I can see that being an issue.

                          You can skip the bulk of the Halftime show, not sure what he means. I mean sure it takes a couple button presses but you can cut it from like 3 minutes to 20 seconds.

                            No it doesn't. It shows that this game caters to millions and not everyone is going to like everything.



                            Giving us a toggle in the options menu to turn off pre-half-post game shows would go a long way. The people who like it can keep it. Those who don't can skip it. Doesn't hurt anyone and definitely doesn't keep the developers from "building on the older ones smh".


                            That being said, I'm not sure why anyone is under the impression the pregame shows are gone. We haven't even seen a game loaded from the menus yet. They all start at the first lineup fullscreen graphic.

                              But you actually can skip it. You can skip the pregame stuff by going to lineups/matchups. You can skip the bulk of the halftime stuff so that there's at most 30 seconds of presentation stuff. I'm all for having more options, but taking away key parts of the presentation will forever be a bad thing. The best example of this that I can think of is when NCAA 14 took out the team specific pregame entrances. Don't remove things you have the ability to build on. I don't see how anyone could possibly encourage that.
