The upgrade is complete, but you've probably noticed the forums are only showing posts up to about April 8. Posts made after that are still in the process of being moved over, and that should take another week or two. Feel free to start a new thread.
The site might feel a little slow while work continues. Engineers are staying on it through the night to get things moving faster again. Thanks for your patience.
What's funny is that one of the voice actors is actually white.
Yeah, that happens all the time. The voice of Ash Ketchum in Pokemon was a girl.
But it doesn't change the fact that they clearly have him trying to fit a stereotype with his voice acting and it's the same with the new voice. Luckily I can block the voice out, but it is a little annoying and definitely hurts the immersion factor of scanning yourself into the game.
As far as the MyCareer voice, there's no reason why 2K can have one voice actor, but with several tone/pitch sliders, even a filter with certain select accents from around the globe. I'm quite sure they have plenty of smart and overly intelligent individuals working for them. I myself as a black male would prefer to have my MyCareer player not speak with the slang lingo. Though there's nothing wrong with it for some, I'd at least like to have the option to talk like a normal person, lol.
Lol at James Harden speaking on defense. That voice just doesn't fit with a white my player they could have done more voices and let you choose like saints row.

That's exactly my thoughts too. I don't care who the voice-actor is or what background he is - it's just that It seems super strange coming from my created players and I can't even skip it. Plus why have 2 voice actors that use the same kind of slang. For me the press conferences are the worst! I can't skip it and it's so annoying I usually use that opportunity to go take a piss! lol
This isn't a game it's the worst animated tv show ever. "Sounds like a wise fella" literally nobody has ever said that. Ever. In the history of everything. It sounds like a 90 year old man is writing what he thinks kids sound like today. Incredible.
Voice actor sounds like one of the Lucas brothers. They shouldn't have the nba players reading off a script. Just let them free style and give real advice off the top of their head.
People are complaining about the voice acting by the players, but the script writing is equally awful.
It's like they found a "cliche's to use in sports" webpage and just hit copy/paste.
Anyway, even though it's full of cheese and cliches, it's a nice addition. Hearing the players talk instead of having to read their lines in subtitles will go a long way. I like it.

Best comment ever. I have not watched the video and it does not look good. I was hoping 2K was taking a queue to get some diversity with this dialog and voices if they were going to force feed it in your MyCareer. Does not look like it. Back to my white guy talking like a stereo-typical "baller" - so dumb. Ruins the immersion...I'd prefer just to read text and select my answers...then at least I hear my own voice in my head when reading.
Wonder why they didn't add a voice that generally sounds like a young white person. Now we have two black sounding voices, im pretty sure the majority of the people who buy this game dont sound like these guys. im black, i like the new voice but I can understand why some dont like these voices.
Would have a lot more options for mentors and interaction with other teammates, coaches, gms, etc. if it was just text instead. Voice acting just doesn't sound good. And that voice with Ronnie just sounds terrible. But My Career isn't really my cup of tea anyways, so if you like it, more power to you, hope you have fun with that mode.

I'm black, but sound "white"...So, I don't like these voices. =)...I would prefer text.
Wish 2K had an option to not have voices to our CAP and use context. i just can't immense myself in this game because the Voices they have are not the way i would response to questions and in that tone of voice/context
