I wish we could edit D-League rosters to real players. That's about the only thing I can really gripe about right now. I'd say 1 gripe, pre-release, for me is a pretty incredible accomplishment.

Man!!!!!! Games like NBA 2K, The Show, FIFA, and NHL are really going above and beyond to be as deep as possible with their sports games. I hope the Madden team is reading.

Every time it seems like these top notch sports games are out of ideas...they blow it off the charts even more. Especially The Show and NBA 2K!!!

Re: NBA2K11 Developer Insights: Association

Does the league pass sign in the middle hold any significance, like maybe a nightly wrap up show or is it just advertising?

- Classic Teams: I’ve seen so much discussion on this in the forums despite us previously confirming this. Yes, you absolutely can take our classic teams into Association. This means you can bring any of Jordan’s Bulls into the league. Equally as fun I have found is to bring in the Malone/Stockton Jazz and the Ewing Knicks alongside the Jordan teams. It’s an interesting wrinkle to the Association formula that people in the office have been enjoying for months now!

Heaven! Can't wait to have a classic teams legacy.

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Association

as a 2k player that has never really messed with association the features sound pretty nice - i might have to check it out this year.

on that note, can we get some rating info and the online insight? lol. thats my bread and butter right there.

They can't be serious! Are they seriously making the game this good!? How am I supposed to get anything else done!?

Firstly this quote caught my eye ''When teams are signing players in both in-season and offseason''...im guessing we can finally extend a players contract during the season? if so im happy enough
The team and roster building is a thing of genius to be honest the fact that spomething so simple could have such an impact on the game (in my opinion) is niiiiicccceee
The trading values, player logic and signing logic sound really really sweet man the fact that they have found a way to add more depth and realism to this part of the association is impressive to put it modestly, really can't wait to see what kind of trades ill be presented with during my run with the Hornets
Like the way that they seriously strengthened what was for me the weakest part of the offeseason (the draft) it sounds and looks great, and the added realism of drafty day trades is a nice quirk ;P
My favourite part of the whole insight though is the player finder (ala the Fifa series) and the trade finder (ala madden) jusssst wooow this will be an absolute godsend man can't wait to get stuck into it ;P
Lastly, loving the ''Intra-squad scrimmages'......
All in all i don't know if Jordan will see much action on my console, This years association has taken it to another level :;P

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Association

Man that's a lot of changes!

Now I want to see about the NBA Today 2.0.

And to anyone who said this will be NBA 2K10.5? This is more like NBA 2K12!

Wow! This is what I imagined when this generation of systems were announced.

Just an advertisement of sorts. It was there last season. In a way you have league pass in your association with the ability to play/watch every game.

Do you plan on trying to fill every slot w/ a Classic team? I've thought about it, and just subbing in one seems like it would be a one season type thing. With every slot filled, it would seem like it would be more fun going through a series of seasons.

On second thought, do we even know the exact number of classic teams in 2k11?

Re: NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Association

This insight has been the insight I've been most waiting for and it didn't disappoint. I passed out about half through and passed out again before the end. Absolutely amazing.

[GrandMaster B]

If only EA could do this with NHL and Madden. Well, they can, they just don't want to.
