NBA 2K12 Roster Update Available Now (12-13-11) - Video of Changes Included

[scala42]

im on 360 and i still havent gotten the roster update, it say there's no files available at this time nonsense, can someone help me out please?

I usually don't care about overalls, but it is interesting to see how many inproven rookies that have only played 15 college games are rated higher than seasoned NBA Vets. Interesting.

I say as long as these CP3 and D12 trade talks stay where they are now (pretty much dead) the updates should be good to go.

Add in normal business time where your contact at the NBA doesn't reply to emails or doesn't/can't get you the correct information fast enough and that kills the entire day Monday. It's only Tuesday morning. I'm sure they'll get the information today and it will probably be in the next roster update if the NBA forwards them the correct information. I just don't see the conspiracy theories here. I've had to deal with individuals that are lax at their job. I believe that can be the case here since every single developer mentions things like this at times. These guys want to update this information as soon as they can. What benefit do they get from holding off?

That wasnt the case this wknd though because of the short time frame before the start of the season. Everything I've heard says the office was processing deals this wknd. I just find it hard to believe that the NBA office has only processed 12 rookie contracts before this morning.

No benefit from holding off but I think that they either underestimated how difficult it would be to add rookies or flat out lied about how easy they could.

I meant Monday as in yesterday....not next Monday. I'll be furious if it takes until next Monday to get the #3 and #5 picks in the game.

Fair enough - that could be the case. But that still leaves open the possibility of 2k's contact not being available this weekend to green light the additions.

The people that deal with the contracts and 2k's licensing contact wouldn't work in the same department. Chain of command where if one person is slow it holds up the entire line of communication.

I know it has been said before but if we are going to have it all (probably) by the 25th, why on earth are some of us so impatient that we are complaining about not having it all now. Just sit tight people.

That makes sense. I'll let it go now but this next update should have plenty of rookies. If not, something's fishy.
