Yea it sucks but you will still buy and you know it

Oh I'll definitely still be buying it on release day, if for nothing else then to ensure I receive those classic Warrior and Kings teams. But I still like to think parts of 2K care about our overall satisfaction, not just whether we buy the game or not. In fact, I know product sold is not the bottom line for a lot of those guys over there. Therefore, I feel it's worth noting that an inability to edit classic teams in the same manner as we could in 2K11 severely chops down nearly all anticipation and energy I had built up for this title.

Of course, if the NBA season were still going on as scheduled, I'd have a lot more to fall back on in this game, and I certainly don't blame 2K for that. But as it stands, for video game standards I value realism and authenticity. And with a lockout, I won't be able to get that realism and authenticity in Association, My Player, or Quick Game modes with current teams. I was planning on wearing those classic teams out for all they were worth. However, with the recent revelations regarding the apparent removal of last year's full edit options, it seems realism for the classic teams has also almost gone out the window. It doesn't leave a lot for some of us.

Yep, from what I've heard, custom Association still exists, where you can replace current teams with the classic ones, as long as the classic teams have been unlocked (by winning their "Greatest" matchup in a game of any length).

PC it is for me, as usual. The most reliable platform in dealing with certain little problems like these in an NBA 2K game.

Although a "solution" has been found I'm still disappointed like many of you are too since its such a big hassle and limits us and for all the other reason people stated like only being able to only use 10 exported teams, and having some in accurate classic rosters in exhibition.

I wonder if the glitch is still there where a created player on an exported (classic) team comes out looking very distorted and nothing like how your created player looked before exporting.

I wonder if it was really a glitch though. There is a reason why some guys weren't included in NBA 2k11 and now 2k12, take Barkley and Miller for example. So maybe if 2k actually had their likenesses in the game they could get in trouble/sued. Madden once had all the Superbowl teams and other teams like the "all-time franchise teams", the players were just nameless and had the wrong jersey numbers but they were easily editable. EA got sued by Jim Brown and other NFL players for EA having their "likenesses" in the game without their permission and with compensating the players. I wonder if something like this was the reason 2k eliminated that option, but then again mods do this all the time for the PC.

NO

10 char

I thought that was the point of this thread? To explain that classic teams can in fact be taken into an Association and henceforth edited in at least one small, difficult form?

Re: You CAN assign legends to current teams, HUGE FIND by gmcrb28

You can take legends into association. The limitation is you cant edit all the created guys on all the legends teams

yea sorry idk why i was thinking that 10 slots for created teams was an obstacle to it but it is not (sorry i just woke up)

in fact, as long as u unlocked all legend teams, u should be good to go

btw HAS IT BEEN CONFIRMED THAN ONLY 10 TEAMS CAN BE CREATED AT THE SAME TIME THIS YEAR AGAIN??

Re: You CAN assign legends to current teams, HUGE FIND by gmcrb28

Now I'm thinking you might can create players and put them in the free agent pool and then go into association made and release ans sign players as needed would that not work?

Re: You CAN assign legends to current teams, HUGE FIND by gmcrb28

I don't know why so many people are happy about this. This still REALLY sucks. The customization of the classic teams was literally the ONLY thing I was looking forward to.

Is it really true that we can't just create Charles Barkley, drop him into the free agents and then assign him to the 1985 Sixers? If so, why mess a good thing up 2K? I'm honestly considering not buying the game. I can't believe I'd ever say that...

Yeah, I hear ya man, I'm still bummed about this too. But I think this is something that can be patched if we let 2K know that we are displeased with the inability to edit classic teams. As has been suggested before, we should hit them up on twitter and on the 2k forums and ask them for an immediate patch to allow us to edit classic teams.
