    Re: Is the NBA 2K Insider a joke?

    In the video it was a joke -- we've been wanting to know who the 2k insider was since they've introduced him.

    And I honestly thought the Insider went off of stats gathered from 82 games or something like that? Thats where I get (or used to) my ammo for online debates.

        The 2k insider didn't ask for this.. job, he is a victim of circumstance.

          The 2K Insider is more like this guy on the left

          Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

          Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

              First and foremost, I dont think the 2k insider is doing such a bad job, especially considering it must not be a full time job/task...

              Even checking the ratings of other people who dedicate a lot time to it (it seems), I pretty much disagree with many of theirs ratings, my main point is stats never tell you the whole history...

              The only way in my view would be to watch all the games (I myself watch a lot of games, but far from all, hehe) and analyze players game from that, and even with that, everyone is entitled to his opinion, and you can not make everybody happy, especially fanboys...

              Cheers, enjoy life! ;-)

                I don't think it's a joke, but I do think it's funny how they're hiding the 2k Insider. Wasn't he just helping us in My Player a couple years ago??? haha.

                  What do you think? One person cannot be responsible for such an important part of the game, right? RIGHT?!
                  I think it's common sense to think that it's a group effort. It'd be stupid not to.

                    Tell him to base ratings and sig skills off advance stats. I don't get how Rose is a floor general. I know for a fact the out of box rosters will be horribly made

                      not to be throwing other ppls money around but 2k seems like they atleast attempt to be in tune with their fanbase....

                      so why not just hire someone from say off of this forum to come in and do the roster? i mean seriously some folks would do it for free, but even still how much could it cost 2k, to bring in someone who clearly has a passion for doing ratings.

                      especially when its quite obvious that whoever is doing them cant do them as good as the ppl who re-do them.

                      note: i get the whole 2kshare aspect of it but if 2k is relying on 2kshare to fix their rosters isnt that a negative against 2k?

                      if im missing some reason why this isnt feasible besides the fact that they just havent taken this approach, im open to hearing it

                        Who is the shoe/accessory insider then?

                        So I can complain to them...

                        Nobody wants to be accountable.

                            They are probably distant brothers.

                              I hope that dude from 2K11 MyPlayer returns, he was cool.


                              And the insider is LAZY AS HELL, he should update the players rating a lot more. Not everyones rating is going to be changed every week, but at the start of the season they really need to do this AND when players are developing certain tendencies/skills OR when players who are having a break out year and such etc. UPDATE IT please.
