Re: NBA 2K14: New MyGM Screenshot

I understand why people are negative .
We ain't seen nothing yet,just talk...and a short bad quality gameplay video from gamestop.

how about online mode?
creation mode mode?
create a team?
create a player?
realmaker back?
Developer Insight video of My Career?
Developer Insight video of My GM?
Developer Insight of defense ?
some infos about Euroleague players?
Some infos about legends ?
...

It's kinda weird to have a Next-gen Michael Jordan and don't use it to promote the game....

Smdh. This is getting dang ridiculous man. I'm starting to get insulted. Really thinking to switching my preorder to Killzone or AC4.

Re: NBA 2K14: New MyGM Screenshot

Is Erik Boenisch just a placeholder or there will be fantasy owners instead of real ones?

[Exogenesis33]

What if I don't want to trade for a draft pick? What if I actually just like my team the way they are in real life? My biggest concern is this....Are we going to be forced to play the way they want us to? I certainly don't want to be told what I am supposed to do as a GM, but if I fail their predetermined goals, then I lose trust...Hmm...

Re: NBA 2K14: New MyGM Screenshot

I do not want to sound arrogant, but ... I'm 40 years old, 2 children, and unfortunately i'm the managing director of a company with a turnover of several million euro ... in the evening when my kids are sleeping and I can play and enjoy playing nba2k14, I would love only play the game, trade some players and make some draft pick, obviously using bedwardsroy roster !
but now I seem to have to deal with repetitive play, elementary, and for a much lower target age. I am very very astonished

And sorry for my poor english

How is something that more accurately resembles what real GM's do (who are mostly old dudes) targetted for a "much lower target age"? Seems like it's the ADHD kids who won't want to sit through chat dialogue boxes and manage staff and personalities.

Also you can turn all that stuff off. You can stop being astonished.

Re: NBA 2K14: New MyGM Screenshot

In all fairness I hope this mode grows next year. I'm disappointed that 2K has dropped the ball on the D-League and really implementing the Euroleague into this mode and Association. And Summer League my goodness what about summer league?! This mode could have many layers to it with adding real GM's and owners of teams as options for people to control all of basketball operations.

How about hiring a coaching staff or moving your assistant coach to the head coaching gig? How about hiring a training staff that could help a injury prone player?

So many things that this mode can do and so much control that people could have with this thing. The possibilities are endless. If you give people options.

Re: NBA 2K14: New MyGM Screenshot

Well, lack of information aside I really hope this mode turns out to be awesome. I also hope that our conversations with everyone are more than just blocks of text that we read through.

Also, I might get some slack for this, but when I first saw the screen it looked like a CG screen of the game to me. Nothing about it screams Next-Gen to me, especially not the poorly designed UI, which we've all become accustomed to but still.

Leftos confirmed that there's no need to deal with all that stuff if you don't want to. You have the option to just play the game and forget about the rest.

Re: NBA 2K14: New MyGM Screenshot

Alright, I'm gonna say why I like this, and I would hope that other sim guys who strive for realism can agree with me, if not, I'm really not sure what people want anymore.

Looking past all the negative comments in here, i'll say this, some people might NEVER be satisfied. Saying that, here's why i'm on my way to satisfaction...

This screen tells me a few things. You'll have dynamic owner goals presented to you. This means that sometimes you'll have to change your strategy for the upcoming season to please your owner, or, you can do things your way and risk him getting pissed at you, but i'm sure he'll deal with it if you can still win a title.

Second, it forces you to rethink the way you play basketball video games. Your owner wants you to get younger? So he asks you to make some trades to acquire high draft picks? If you want to please him, what do you do? Do you give up some key veteran pieces to get some high picks in the draft? Or do you stick with that old core and try to make one more run at a title?

Maybe the owner wants you to bring in some veterans before the deadline to make a big playoff push? You never know how these dynamic owner/player/coach/media interactions will affect the entire makeup of your team. Personally, that's the big picture with all of this and i'm looking right at it; And i'll tell you this, I'm more than excited to find out what else is in store for this mode.

I'm just afraid that after 6/7 months all the dialogue will be always the same, I played many years with Football Manager and at the end of the day i spent so much time to discuss with agent, players, assistant coach and after some weeks i knew how to make players happy, just give them the right answer also if it was not wath you are thinking.
I think that user like me (and you) would prefer to have accurate ratings and playbook instead of such discussion and feature.
Hope you can understand what I write... My english is always so bad !!!!

Thanks for the information (i did not read about this).
So you also know if should be possible to use custom roster (i.e. Bedwardsroy) ?
And i'm also afraid about the translation of the dialogue... We always have terrible translations in italian...

I'm with you. Very excited to see the potential of this mode if its handled properly and the GM AI across the league is good. My frustration is with the trickling and teasing of information rather than the direction that 2k seems to be headed.
