With the early MP thing - i forgive the name thing. But ofc this is open for discussion and i get that - if they fix it great.

It's not a game breaker.. Just kills the immersion a little. I like I'm really into it and then they say the name and I'm like arrgghh

We shouldn't assume that's the nickname. "President of Basketball" is a long, odd nickname. For we all know, he's lying to get a chance to speak to Coach K.

EDIT: For a nickname, he didn't sound too sure whether or not he wanted to identify himself as "Prez".

Disagree on that, I'd rather pick my own last name, nicknames can be ignored, but last names can't.

Could be. I but frequency vibration was kind of long and look what happened. Lol but you could be right. I I'm hoping so

The last names in the game are recorded differently. If they threw the last names in the scene it wouldn't sound smooth. And it would take forever to have someone read each line with every last name in the game (to make it sound realistic) plus they would have to do it every year. Best we can hope for is no name, pool of names, or reading or own lines somehow

Yea i get you - hopefully they improve gameplay a lot and we can focus on adding more immersion in 2k18

I agree I know it's assumption now but it's based on what happened last year. I quit playing My Career honestly because I kept getting referred to as Freq! It's called "My Career" either change the name or I have a misunderstanding of what the mode means!

I'll also throw in a request to stop forcing us to pick a nickname for created players. It makes you choose one, no option for "none". And the announcer says the created player's nickname constantly... Really annoying
