Player/Team Ratings Question?

[BattleTested20]

Does anybody know when we're suppose to get the press release that has all or most of the Player ratings and team ratings???

I know last year is was right before or released right after the demo. Just really curious and anxious to see the ratings.

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

Player ratings are the same as last year. Only thing that will be new are the rookies. 2k insiders last update and new ratings.

What about players who showed improvement over the summer though... ie Demar Derozan

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

Nope...Summer League doesn't count. Until the regular season starts no ratings will be changed. And thats when the 2k insider makes changes.

This is definitely not true. I have never seen any sports video game ever just carry over ratings (at least not in the last few years) and not take into account changes from end of a season till the next year. They usually give a bump to young players who started to play better at the end of the season, and showed potential to make a jump in year 2 or year 3.

Its always been like that for years now. Since updating rosters came alive. Whatever the last roster update was from the season before. Thats what the rosters will be in the beginning of next year. Until the 2kinsider changes roster ratings. The only thing that might be different are that new ratings are added.

They did it the last 3-4 seasons now. Whatever the players ratings was the last season. Thats the same ratings he will get on the default roster on the disc...

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

The only difference I can say was between 2k9 and 2k10. When they changed the bottom of the scale from 50 to 25. They made changes to those bottom players/ratings.

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

O ok, well thanks for correcting me. I guess I usually stop looking seriously at ratings around March, and never pay attention to the final roster update. I usually look pretty hard at the ratings when the game first comes out, I guess I just never put 2 and 2 together.

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

Never really believed they would be that lazy about the rosters.

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

Your welcome...Yea I know what you mean. I actually have a PDF of the final rosters update for the last 3-4 years. I always check lol.

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

Would it really be that hard for the insider do some homework during the summer on players progression. I doubt the info would be too hard to find. Im not necessarily talking about drastic jumps but mild improvement would be nice, especially if we don't get the first ratings update until a month or two after the game drops.

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

It would be nice...But you can't rate players for how they play during the summer league and preseason. I don't think that would make sense. I mean I see Derrick Rose has a video on youtube with him shooting and hitting 3's. Now do I give him a little rating boost because of a video on youtube? I don't think so.

Re: Player/Team Ratings Question?

if you look at the roster ratings for the test 2k11 leagues, they have made some subtle changes. i think on the last rosters for 2k10 durant was in the high 80s. he's 91 now.

also looks like they bumped up most players on ball d ratings. eg. wilson chandler was 69 on the last 2k10 roster in on ball d and in the test leagues for 2k11 its a 79.

either way, same ratings or not it would be nice to see the screens like they have been showing them the past few times
