In my opinion there is not enough stealing going on. I wish companies would take their egos out of the equation and steal whatever they need to steal to make their game better.

I like how they steal ideas the only differences is, NBA LIVE has got the nice graphics and presentation but 2ks got outstanding game play and realistic player animations. NOW combine those two and thats a great combo. The thing is we need two bball games that why there is competition to make the game better.

Re: 2K Sports Gets More Real with Living Rosters in NBA® 2K9

so my question iz, how r these "living rosters" going to play into association mode:

• iz it just a roster update or iz it a patch to update what iz already there on ur roster?
• will the ratings and tendencies change but leave the rosters the same?
• will they add players as they get added in real life?
• what will happen to ur CAPs?

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER THIS B4 WE START WORKING ON OUR "BIG 3 EXPERIENCE" roster/slider/instruction set?

You had to go to the online desk to get the roster and save it to your hard drive for offline use. I imagine that this will have basically the same thing, though it might be a little more streamlined (probably asks if you want to update and then autosaves or something).

It would be nice if these could be answered too

1. Will you guys have a place that you post the updates for the living rosters in USB format for us people without online?

2. Do the new ratings and ambition etc. stuff fix the issue where guys like Manu would be starting even when you set them to the sixth man before?

3. Will teams define rotations by skills rather than overall ratings? For example Jason Carroll for the Bobcats is good at shooting 3's and not much else. In 2K's past he wouldn't be playing because his overall was low because that was his only skill. And obviously you guys know that that isn't right. Will this be fixed?

4. Is there an option to controll ALL teams in Assotiation?

Im highly doubtful that it will.. If you watched the association video on the site, I don't think they had an option for living rosters. Does anyone have any concrete proof that it will be offered in franchise? Sorry if I'm just rehashing old stuff.

IT DOES NOT MATTER WHO THOUGHT OF THIS CONCEPT. 2K OR LIVE. AS LONG AS THEY ARE FINALLY LISTENING TO US IS WHAT MATTERS THE MOST.

BIG STEPS.

Like another poster said, I don't think it ties into association. As far as base rosters go, since you can upload player dna, I think it would be possible to keep your CAPs across roster sets. Maybe they're separate, maybe you'd have to download the CAPs Player DNA whenever you change rosters. You follow what i'm trying to say?

Can't wait for this game, but living rosters does not excite me except for the added animations.
