Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

Are you absolutely sure that you can pay with a European credit card on a US PSN account?

If it's visa, I don't see why we can't.
I know french people who buy Final Fantasy VII on the us store because the didn't want the PAL version.

Nice cover..

Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

Sorry if this has already been covered, but I'm not sure I understand how the draft in this draft combine add-on works. First off, does it include the rest of the actual 2009 draft class (at the combine)? Secondly, if you create a player, and he ends up getting drafted, say, in the 1st round, does that change the pick results of the 2009 draft? I.E...when you continue your career mode in the real version of 2K10, will some of the rookies be on different teams and whatnot?

Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

This mode is about YOU. Y-O-U.

You are the one trying to get drafted. You create multiple players but can pick ONE, whichever one you want, to "go into the draft" and hopefully get picked.

The whole purpose is to take Superstar-style modes to a completely new level. You are competing against hundreds of others online to get picked.

Think the 5 on 5 team play but with a purely unique superstar to call your own. It's an extension (and evolution) of that.

Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

Hopefully the 5 on 5 online actually works first and foremost, but I also hope that only Centers can play Center, Forwards can only be Forwards, etc. It is like I said in another thread I don't want to see 5 point guards playing 5 centers. Also it would be pretty cool if it was like true pick up basketball and the computer assigns two random team captains and they each pick the guys they want on their team.

Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

I like that last idea dlane. Would make for some funny online experiences, just like when you're at the courts.

"I got the dude in the red shorts."
"Damn I guess I'll take him."
"Aww no I'm not picking this guy."

So when is this "draft" going to take place

I was always under the impression that you are only trying to get drafted on YOUR game.

Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

No clue. Considering you're uploading it to the 2k Servers, I don't think you're only trying to get drafted on your game.

Maybe thursday will reveal some more info...

As I was typing that I was having some bad gym class memories. hahaha

Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

OK well since it is a COMPETITION, that changes my opinion about it completely.

So will I be competing in drills against OTHERS?

I wonder how anyone will stand a chance of getting drafting when you have folks in online land that always know how to max out their characters is little to no time. (See COD4)

Re: Derrick Rose Cover Athelete of the Draft Combine

I think the drills are against the computer but there was something announced somewhere that said you can take your guy online to compete against others.

Looks like a complete online D-League made up of us. It's not just about the NBA Players anymore... take your created guy and go up against other created guys.

I truly hope I am not wrong. Of course this is all speculation... but that's the impression I'm getting by the keywords being used in the articles and press releases. Would love this if it were true.

You don't compete in drills against anyone except yourself, but maybe you can submit your scores to see where you rank just speculating though. The only time you will play a human is in pick up games. Your right I hope that I don't spend most of my time against guys who have maxed their guys by doing cheap things. What would be cool is if you played with guys at your overall and than as you progress you play against the better guys. For example if I have a 75 overall guy I will be matched up against guys who 70-75 overall only. That way you have something to work for, because it would really tick me off if I have to go up against a Lebron clone and I am only a slow 72 rated bum.

What? Uhmm, are you saying he is uhmm, not a good uhmm speaker?

(this is definitely a step up from some of his earlier interviews and Playoff interviews)

I'm sure D-Rose is doing the best he can. Let show him some love. And getting a speech coach might be something he considers down the road.

Yes, they mention every mode is online this year. So this speculation seems reasonable though without much to back it yet.
