Unfortunately the always online portion will plague all games going forward. Its great in theory but not practical in the grand scheme of things.

That said, EA has a lot of prove still with their basketball games. They sold a promise that the game would be up to date within hours of it happening in the real world yet that hasnt happened. Unless this update comes out and completely changes the way the game functions, I dont see how the consumer would/should expect much in Live 15. This by no means puts 2k in the clear as they have many issues of their own
