So of course that means if you started an offline MyPlayer, he will stay that way; no way to make that character an online one. Tellingly, I had to start my career over. Can anybody verify this? I started a career when the system came out and am now 25 games in and don't really want to restart. The main thing I care about is the quarter length.Can anybody verify this?

Still looking for some verification on this before I go any farther in the career.

Yeah, I had to do the FT mini game one time. Haven't had the 20 jumpers thing, yet. But this is silly. In order for me to get into the gym I have to fail at something in a regular game? That's just stupid.

I can't fathom that this would be difficult for them to include. You already have the gym, the timing grades of your release. I mean that's all you really need. Give me an open gym, a ball, and your player. It can't be that hard.

Yes, it's true. I have two careers, one is online and the other is offline. It's not a huge difference, you can't access the store from inside the career, have to change accessories in the features menu, and you can't use purchased VC on it. But other than that it's pretty much the same.
Actually useful to have for when 2k serves have issues.

Has anyone gotten a shoe endorsement deal yet? I want to know when our MyPlayers can actually start wearing some nice kicks instead of freaking 2k generic shoe garbage.

My main thing is changing the time of quarters. Is it possible to do this with an offline one? It doesn't appear in the settings menu like it does for the online one...it's currently at 6 minute quarters and most games are finishing in the 60's & 70s which isn't realistic.

when you do certain things in the right way. Like when a star player "test" you by asking you the ball and you pass it right away, fans react on it, they see that you're not a ball-hog. I cannot remember (Im away from my PS4 now) what else contribute to the fans positive reaction but after you reach certain level, the badges unlock. For example, because i did pass the ball right away (and another 1-2, cant remember what) now i have the Fan favorite badges.

I have 4 different dunk packages equipped, yet my myplayer does the same dunk every time (on the rare occasion he actually dunks). Anyone else having this issue

And these preset faces are straight up wack. The only thing keeping me interested is the stellar gameplay and heightened visuals. This mode appears to be a lot more bare than I originally thought.

You need to buy shoes...
