Gotcha Pared. Its several posts in the bug and glitch thread about this. Its a bug for sure. Its almost like the cpu doesnt recognize the name you chose from the name database that 2k provides.

Re: Y the nick name calling

My name is Naismith. And I feel like they must have at least referred to the Naismith Hall of Fame or something in the commentary, but it's not it the game as an actual name either.

What do I have to do to get them to recognize Naismith as a last name in a BASKETBALL game?!?

I created will Barton and they call him the kid. The Pa announcer calls him will Barton even at home games. Definitely a glitch. The interesting thing about it was the fact that I didn't see Barton in the side panel but its definitely in the audio pack.

Yo Pared, the real funny part is the PA sounds like he says "black hoe". Needless to say, my wife walked by as I was experimenting using different nicknames to see if I can find a workaround for the bug. The PA said "black hole" and she looked at me and said "did your game call me a black hoe". I almost pee'd on myself, I was laughing so hard.

2k needs to have the option to leave nickname blank for next year then this would not be a problem.

Re: Y the nick name calling

yea I don't like the whole nickname calling.. I use the added names for a reason so I can get a real feel when I have my players

I named my player Harry Potter LOL. would be great hearing the announcers keep calling me that lol

Re: Y the nick name calling

At least you have your names in there. My name is Shawn Bruce. Simple right? yet VC hasn't put "Bruce" as a last name in NBA 2K.

Funny thing, "Bruce" was in the College Hoops series and "Bruce is the last name of the halftime guy.

Re: Y the nick name calling

Gotta be a bug. I always name my guy Jimmy Hendrix as it sounds like Jimi Hendrix, but they only have Jimmy in the list. I do that specifically because I love hearing them say the name. Now they just call him The Beast lol. Although one cool thing was one of them was like "The Beast is on the loose!" after I hit like two 3 pointers in a row.

Re: Y the nick name calling

Yea, for everyone experiencing this glitch, (which I assume is everyone who pays attention to the PA announcer) post it on the bugs and glitches thread. Also hit the like button if you see a post in there already pertaining to it. Ronnie2k posted a tweet that links up with the bugs and glitches thread on this site.

I was actually looking for this option. I don't have a common last name so I use a name similar to it just so I can hear the announcers actually say it. This MF'er still calls off "Money". Sheesh! I can't win. Lol

Re: Y the nick name calling

I was JUST thinking about this. I'm not a damn boxer call me by my freaking name. 2k has had this problem for a number of years now & it doesn't make any sense to me why.

Re: Y the nick name calling

If you think about it how rare is it that an announcer actually calls a player by his nickname, especially during the game. Maybe pregame but not during play-by-play. "The Black Mamba receives the ball in the post." "Durantula from downtown!" <----I can't remember that happening very often.

(It DOES happen but not a lot).

Re: Y the nick name calling

I guess will sound like this. "Black Mamba feeds superman in the post. Superman faces up, striped by flash, outlet pass to king james. King james slams it home. What a play by flash".

This needs to be fixed asap. Im tryin to find a workaround. If I find one, I will post it.
