Re: Any word on a roster update?

Not true Norris Cole needs a speed boost at the very least.

Did you not just read my last post?? Again you are talking an athletic rating of a rookie not RATINGS boost. There is a huge difference there. And just to throw it out there in case anybody wants to talk about any of his other ratings he has played in seven games not THREE games. Again and for the last time a three game sample size(especially for six year vets) is not big enough for major SKILL RATINGS changes.

1. He's not the same guy you just replied to (you directed your first post to kingg d).
   
2. He posted at the same time you replied to kingg d. I don't think he saw your post.
   
3. Calm down bro, it's not that serious. All the numbers are ratings. It's called the Speed rating. What's you trying to differentiate is an athletic RATING from a SKILL RATING, which you hinted at. Either way, it's considered boosting a rating, adjusting it, fixing it, etc.

Re: Any word on a roster update?

I know who I replied to in both post. Lol there is no anger or anything of that matter just making a post just like you are. It is simple to see the difference in an athletic rating of a rookie and skill ratings of a six year vet but since you asked I can tell you in more detail.

Rookies athletic ratings are for a good part based on thier combine numbers. Once seeing a guy on the actual NBA court a few times you can make a judgement on if a guy just had a bad day at the combine or the scouts might have been wrong or anything like that. A players skill ratings(especially veteran players) is based off of what they did the previous season(sometimes a value is placed on the couple of season prior). Boost are given based on their play on the court. I simply feel that a three game sample size clearly isn't big enough to support major increases in a player's skill ratings. If he does it for 10 or so games then yes give him a slight to moderate boost but IMO three games( against bad defensive and rebounding at that) isn't enough.

Re: Any word on a roster update?

Not getting into specifics about Cole but there is a difference between adjusting an athletic rating of a rookie and giving a major ratings boost to a guy who has been in the league six years after just three games. No player should receive major skill ratings boost after just three games.

An arguement could be that a specific player was underrated/overrated in the first place by 2k. Not just basing stuff after a few games. There will always be arguements over player ratings in sports games.

This is true and there are cases now where certain guys have certain ratings that are too high or too low( mostly too high though). My original post on the matter was just about they guy saying Bynum should get a big boost based on his play so far.

Any word on if the rookie pictures will make it in, or do we have to wait another 2 months?

That looks like something they will have in for the 2K13 installment and then maybe they will get around to doing that in a future update

There's nothing to wait on. If you haven't seen the pictures by now, you'll most likely not see them.

Player portraits are typically on the disk and one can deduce with the lockout and all, they obviously couldn't put rookie player portraits on the disk.

They need to just get every one who is missing into the game. At this point I could care less whether they have an actual photo or they use a cyberface shot. Heck if they had a blacked out silhouette photo of X player that would mean nothing to me, just get them in. 2k needs to go Malcolm X and get all players in "By any means necessary"..

This. Even NBA teams weren't able to take rookie pictures for their website, etc., so I highly doubt they could put them in. Could they have used college pictures? Maybe, but who knows about that process?

Yeah, I'm with you on that lol, as long as they get the rest of the rooks in... I'm good to go.

We'll see if they can manage to get it right this time around.

I have my doubts.

Re: Any word on a roster update?

Im not following every NBA team but I know just my Celtics are missing two players and Greg Stiemsma is playing major minutes and is playing an important role with the team. He's also starting since Jermaine O'Neal is out. There are other teams with missing players as well, and I mean guys that are actually getting minutes.

I think what people are upset about is that we were lied to. 2K made promises that they haven't delivered on. They said adding the rookies would be seemless, that they were already in the game and ready to go. But that hasn't been the case. They also advertised this "2K Insider" nonsense and daily roster updates. What we got instead was a very incomplete Christmas Day update and not a word on any update since. It's been nearly 2 weeks since the season began and people can't even use a guy like Andrew Bynum.

Is this the biggest travesty in the world? Of course not. Far greater things are going on in the world. But we as the consumer have a right to complain when we were promised something and 2K Sports won't even give us an explanation why they can't deliver. If you bought a product off a store shelf and got it home and opened the box and things were missing you would be upset and take that product back to the store. Why should it be any different just because it's a video game?

The fact is 2K Sports is giving themselves a black eye. Here we have a great game that has been improved since the patches. But people want to start their Associations. 2K Sports is acting like they don't care about their customers. I've been buying their games since the Dreamcast days. If they are going to continue to lie and then cover it up I won't ever trust their marketing gimmicks ever again. I may think twice before I plop down another $60 for one of their games.

Those of you guys sticking up for these guys must work for them.

Us Celtic fans need our Stiesma. Come on 2K. Get it done.
