Re: NBA 2K14 Next-Gen MyGM Screenshot - Owners

eh........ I haven't seen anything that distinguishes this from Connected Franchise. What will set this apart?

Well, first off the few screen shots that we have seen so far only seems to scratch the surface of what this will be. But if you want an actual answer, then is player morale in CCF? How about unique owner personalities who can potentially meddle with your team? Welp, there's already two pretty big differences that already set it apart from CCF. If you don't see that, then you're choosing not to look.

I'm thinking of taking over a team I can rebuild with like the Magic or the Bobcats.

Don't forget the conversation engine that can come back to bite you in the ***.

Good thing that VC is nowhere to be seen on this picture. Hopefully they realize most of the sim crowd never liked VC to begin with and remove it entirely.

They really just need to do a write up of the mode. Every screen shot just brings more and more questions. I love the idea of playing with a certain type of owner but wonder if you can turn that off. Some people just want to play with their team and completely rebuild them or rework them as they see fit. Will you be able to turn off owner interference or are they just screwed in that regard. I personally would love the realism being brought but again different people play association for different reasons.

I really do like what I'm seeing so far with the RPG elements and other factors that add immersion into the mode, I'm looking forward to building my home-state Bucks into a title contender.

Hopefully SimBaller is able to give us a detailed write-up before release day so we can see how in-depth this mode really goes.

i'm pretty sure that the 2K team said that there's going to be a separate Season Mode for those who don't want to be part of the GM experience

I think there's a large faction of folks who wish to participate in a VC-less, free-wheeling Association, where the user is in total control of their own franchise (or multiple franchises) over multiple seasons without worrying about leveling up their front office human. Historically, the Season Mode only allowed gamers to play for one single year.

The question for season mode is will it be just one season or allow you to do multiple seasons.

Re: NBA 2K14 Next-Gen MyGM Screenshot - Owners

Man I hope they stop giving us screen shots and actually give us more info on the mode since this looks like the main mode I will be playing.

Re: Another MyGM Screenshot!

VC Luxury Tax?

Thats actually a possibility. What else would keep someone from getting a team like the Lakers that don't care about the tax and just signing everyone you want?

[braves_94]

I call B.S.

For one, the Lakers are obviously owned by the Buss siblings from hell.

Here would be my description, last name changed for licensing reasons:

Beanie and Ben Puss:

After the terrible passing of their father. These two aimless wonderers who know absolutely nothing about NBA basketball took the reigns. They only know of the teams past lustrious history, and can offer nothing more than a bottomless amount of cash to aid your efforts. Be careful not to appeal too much to the other, as jealousy runs amock. And be careful who you hire as a coach, because it just so happens that Beanie his married to the Gym Master, Bill Jackman, one of the greatest coaches is modern day NBA history.

THIS.......and all the other little bells and whistles, thought up by a Corporation with just a little bit of imagination, is precisely why 2K is a success and EA is not.
Nevermind NBA Live would never come up with this idea in the first place, but they could never execute it with the panache that 2K is doing.
If this is going to be a battle, then Id say 2K has arrived at the battlefield armed to the teeth, and with a strategy geared towards the consumer.

After seeiing this and how each owner will have a different feel, I understand why 32 team control isnt in this mode, it would be way to much to deal with being all 32 teams, unless they put an auto-pilot option in the game where you can assign the cpu to do task you dont want to do for each team.

Think about it.. Whats the difference if you're talking about Coaching Philosophies or Owners? They handle the Coach Profiles pretty well.
Here's an interesting concept... What if your team hires a Coach who's philosophy doesn't match the Owner?
Let's say the Laker Owner wants to win NOW.. But the Coach you put on the team likes to develop players slowly?
What happens?
Will there be a conflict between the Owner ad the Coach? Will Coaches be fired in Mid Season?
Will a team change its personality?
