I understand frustration but there is some extreme disrespect going on for developers who spend more time here than any other team.

If any of you remember, NBA 2K16 had a very awful launch...

This is not meant to be negative, but one does have to grow tired of purchasing sports games, and not being able to truly play them until a month or two after release. Some people, believe it or not, don't want to play with the OSFM roster. So for them, they waited for this update, hoping they could start a franchise today or whatever day this roster say released, only to now have to wait another week. When people say "don't disrespect the developer" or "you gotta give them credit for being on these boards more than any other title" means nothing to me. What bugs me most is that allegedly, as per another post, Ramone said something to the effect of "we are aware of the bug/issue with the roster, and it will be fixed next week". Great, another week of waiting. Everyone can say what they want. I understand they work hard on the game, and they are passionate about the game they make, and generally, they release a solid product. However, what happened today with the release of the roster is nothing less than unacceptable

It would be a bad decision. They are more than likely going to fix any issues and you're going to get a fraction of what you paid if you bought new. Only GameStop or whoever wins in this scenario and scea will feel none of your displeasure.

I will have to agree with you here. While the game play is great SCEA roster updates historically are bad quality. They just slap a name on a random face for the most part or they pick one from the vault. When compared with other sports titles they leave alot to be desired. Even Madden puts out player likeness updates. The lack of editibality on SCEA players is also baffling considering you could just change appearances yourself if you wanted to. I have to say that this is one of my biggest gripes with the show along with the fact that they remove players from the game with MLB service time and then when they put them back in they are generic . It does seem that the roster updates are not given the attention that they deserve.

Bad stats for not just rookies but added veterans along with regular players who were already in the game. Also players with skin tone's that are wrong, and some with awful player faces that do not look like the real player.

My problem with these roster issues is this...

Gameplay issues? Extremely complicated problem that involves working with code that I can't even begin to imagine.

Online issues? Unfortunately still common with many major video game releases, and again is probably so complicated to fix that I can't get too angry.

Roster isssues? Hire me for 2 hours and I could fix it all myself.

That's why it's unacceptable to me.
