Right on. That's been one of my primary concerns with this game. Can I do all my offilne stuff without needing to be online? 2K15 seems to have made strides in that regard (MyLeague is entirely offline, and rosters can once again be tweaked offline) but I dare say that I believe any and every aspect of 2K that doesn't
need to be offline, should be removed from requiring an online connection (MyCareer, for starters).
It seems we were stripped of a lot of freedom in 2K14 (and even some in 2K13 with the removal of manual save options) and we're now slowly getting some of it back. But there's still progress to be made.
