Things that 2k Association mode can add

[thaprodigyisback]

I think it would be cool if in free agency players ask for contracts similar players of their talent level have like for example Jason Richardson sees that Vince Carter has signed a 4 YR 44 Million Dollar Extension he should say I put up similar numbers so I want around that much. And things like the market your in, coaching staff, how many stars are on your team, and your record should play a factor in FA I've seen Carmelo sign with the pacers too many times

[thaprodigyisback]

It would also be nice if your star players asked you to trade for certain players for example Amar'e asks for another big center or 2 Guard that can shoot threes real well. I remember in like NBA 2K5 if you made some moves or something players would come visit you in your office and you could say stuff to boost their morale

Better playoff atmosphere is an absolute must.

Re: Things that 2k Association mode can add

I like a few of those (almost all of Juke's). But many are unrealistic.

I never really understood why changing the price of peanuts= depth. It seems like surface to me.

I think an untapped market is the RPG sports gaming market. And, what I wish for is that they develop a separate game that taps into this market and focus on the actual on-court action with NBA 2K.

It's a sports game, and your love of the sport should be enough if the sport is accurately represented. Bells, whistles, gimmicks, climbing boring ladders doesn't really interest me.

For instance, why do you need a "hot seat" in the game? Put the coach on the "hot seat" in your brain and fire him in a week. Plus if you read the headlines, coaches are put on the "hot seat". Etc. Etc.

No disrespect intended. I'm being selfish.

Wow, great list op !

inever really realised how much association could be expanded. For people who invest a lot of time in their dynasty this sort of diversification would be a godsend.

not all poeple would want to use thos features but i'm sure there would just be a simulation option that skips through, like there is for everything else.

All I ever play is Association, I'm not saying that.

I'm just saying some people want Final Fantasy 2K12.

The Association Mode is so deep right now, but a lot of people have a superficial idea of depth. There are a million ways to increase the depth, but back of the box headlines are not the way. Or you end up with Madden (whose marketing campaign focuses on having coaches call plays for you) or MLB: TC.

You just mentioned everything that Madden used to have in there owner mode that they ended up taking out for no reason at all. haha

I wanna see more statistics, double doubles, triple doubles, games with 30+ points, teams record when the star gets 10+ assists. Stuff like that would help.

I agree with you, i want to see who gets the most double doubles or triple doubles in the season, who gets the most 30+ points/40+ points

Add draft combine so we can test out on who we draft by looking at how they play or we use them. Add summer circuit so we can test our draft picks or potential people/ 2-3 years pro dudes

Re: Things that 2k Association mode can add

Greenieblue is right, the op had good ideas but a lot of the stuff like fixing prices for peanuts is useless and just copied from madden. The stuff like that does not affect the game so it should not be put in the game. If that was to be implemented in 2k12 they should add generating money from your arena to use on players and upgrades to the arena that you could see when you were playing.

Re: Things that 2k Association mode can add

yea 2k knows this mode can be the GOAT but there not putting significant features in it to keep you enjoyed.

So you're saying that 2K isn't putting these features in because they want people unsatisfied?

I agree with this an example would be fifa 10. Even though it didnt have $$ values for each section, for each home game you could set the pricing low med or high. The amount of fans that showed up is based off of how well your team was doing and who you were facing. You could also sign team sponsorship endorsements. That extra money is what helped you go over the cap, improve your stadium, improve your coaching staff, improve the depth of you scouting etc.

So you're saying that 2K isn't putting these features in because they want people unsatisfied?

And that isnt too crazy or funny its called a consumerist market. Not to say that 2k is the only one doing this cuz as far as sports games go from year to year 2k raises the bar the most. But if you are to release a game yearly you have to leave some stuff to add to next years game.

Now thats a chicken or the egg situation, is it that its done intentionaly or is it that a 1 year developement cycle is too short?
