Hey Brad, can you post a regular card and a foil one?

I hope season matchmaking is somewhat improved then, since you can stat charge in season, what's gonna stop someone putting untrained, uncharged cards to lower their lineup and then train and charge em once season starts

The charging thing is new. You can't untrain a card so the strategy only works once now. With the charge, it can work again and again.

Stat charging essentially replaces Coaches. This has two benefits: you no longer will pull Coaches from the Draft Board as a reset card, and you can stat charge for multiple games before going to bed, so you don't have to Boost every hour if you wanted to be Boosted for longer periods of time.

Nice, I think a lot of people will be glad not to draft those orange coaches cards as a reset any more. Do you have any examples of all these new features you can show us, like cards. I think that will make it more clear and get people excited about 2k16. [emoji3]

Not for a bit. We have a lot of new cards we are prepping, plus we just got an approved 2016 roster to start working with. Card production takes a bit from there. We will show you some cards later.

It largely depends on performance. It is likely 150, but that isn't set in stone.

Re: Blog: Customization in MyNBA2K16

@NWGameDad , will the stats on MyNBA2K16 be more of a focus than they were this year? For example, having to change cards' stats mid-event, stars (and below) all OP in OFF, awful stats in general (Jason Williams has lower PM than Festus Ezeli). Will this be a point of emphasis next year?

You can now do it by yourself and give the card a own specialization- so that makes Ezeli a beast on Playmaking even better than Chris Paul (while he is a rebound monster)

By the way: (maybe I missed it) but do we have to buy those stat charges? As we can't draft them anymore

Stats are always a focus. You may not have agreed with all the stats in '15 but they were an improvement on '14. I expect '16 to be even better.

In your specific case you call out, you cannot make that comparison. The 2015 Finals cards were designed to be better than other cards. So of course players like Ezeli were going to end up with higher stats.

You don't control what Specializations are on player cards, those are assigned randomly. You can control which Abilties are on cards (Abilties are the extra boost that triggers based on card rarity like in '15).

As for Stat charging you charge up a card using another player card. It gets consumed in the process and the you're charging gets charged up for a certain number of games. The Specialization of the card you're using determines which stat is charged up. It is a way for player cards to be used once you have your deck trained up.
