COMING SOON - Current / Historical Roster

Hey guys, been making rosters a long time and have used 2kmcentral, 2khead etc to make historical rosters in the past. I have never messaged here or released my rosters, but currently making my 2k17 roster, which is uniquely balanced against the current season. For example, Teams that are tanking in the season proper, do not get rights to use shared superstars over another former team. For example, Tracy McGrady will either play for top seeds Toronto or Houston, as the Magic are tanking.


I make the rosters set to be made up of 8 Current players & 7 historical players. The historical players combined scores cannot exceed 600, to ensure that the current standings are equally reflected in the overall rosters.

I use 2kmcentral to work out stats, tendencies & youtube for faces, sigs etc. I adjust ratings how i see fit, as i find 2kteam stats too exaggerated. I also ensure that players hold the rating that represents their time with that team. So if Dee Brown plays for the Raptors, his rating will represent his Raptors stint, not his peak Celtics stint.

its quite complicated, but it makes for a very cool merger of current and historical rosters.

I have also created this roster from the 2ks updated rosters which adjusted players to current form, & Steve Nash & Boogie Cousins is teamed up with the Pelicans. However, as Bogut was not in the top 8 Cavs current players - i allowed him to play for Golden State, alongside Zaza.


I tried to avoid making players & limited it where possible, but when i did i would generally take a lot of care ensuring making players and setting all details, which I think makes the whole game very polished.

I have laid out the rosters and started to put it together as per the in-game order - currently finalising the Utah Jazz.

I plan to release it to the public when finished.

As i am awful at making faces, i tend to use online videos to make players, or use look alikes (Horace Grant, made a great Harvey Grant).

If anyone knows how to make a decent looking Mehmet Okur, that would be helpful.

Re: COMING SOON - Current / Historical Roster

Just completing the Lakers now, about half way through the final check.

Was tempted, but wanted to keep as much of that 94-95 NYK team together & with Carmelo likely to move on at the end of the season, he had one las role starting the SF

Re: COMING SOON - Current / Historical Roster

I have updated the rosters above to match my progress. So far I am extremely happy with how it is looking - all created players have been tweaked and every aspect of creation considered.

The biggest point of difference so far is that despite the teams being an almost equal split between current and historical player, each team feels like a genuine team with both its own strengths, weaknesses, & at various different stages of a rebuild or title push. I also will be changing the stanima rate in the Sliders for both teams to ensure to take into account how tiring a league of this quality would be - it also ensures that roster depth is still paramount to success, and continues to add to the more players into rotations

Re: COMING SOON - Current / Historical Roster

I think this roster should be done within the next fortnight. I know I might be compromised on this, but I think this roster will be the best quality one on the PS4 when its done. Many rosters go overboard with the stars and the games tend to feel ridiculous. These teams I have created hold a genuine chemistry - unique strengths and perhaps a hidden weakness. People who play all teams season long, cherry picking their games of interest between sims will love this league as it writes its own script. Any teams season can swing with one injury and at any moment you can be riding on the coat-tails of Charles Barkley at PF - and then be reliant on Dario Saric & Ben Simmons to cover the void if he goes down. Watching these various scenarios play out is awesome.


And the other benefit is that when you have less player creations to make, you can really make sure every creation feels and looks as close to perfect. This roster will have the best versions of the base of essential players.
