College Basketball in NBA 2K16? Here's What We Know...

[JKSportsGamer1984]

2K the cats out of the bag! Being that you're featuring the GOAT MJ you have to get North Carolina in! It's a must! Do whatever it takes but the N.C. Tarheels have to make it in. I understand you won't be able to get every school licensed but at least have all the major schools. From watching the YouTube vid it looks as if some heavy weights are yet to get licensed (Kentucky, Syracuse, Duke, N.C., etc..) Either way this is a great 1st step for things to come if this is true!

Would be DOPE man.... Id love a full tourney though myself. Not even sure thats possible but i can dream lol

Lol I'm not sure either, but I, for one, would absolutely love it. But then again, I'm a guy that would love pretty much any storyline 2K decides to do haha.

I think this is promising for the future.. Purchases of licensing from the clc means we could have a college basketball game soon. (Maybe next year or 17"). I think right now though 2k will strictly use it for my player. We used to have an old college basketball with 32 teams on it called coach K. I used to love that game. For the first 2-3 years it would be understandable if 2k just purchased the teams from the power 5 or teams in the Tournament. Big news though

It seems to me 2k is gonna try to give us everything we've asked for

Could NBA 2K16 Feature Real Colleges? We Dissect...

Remember it says declare for the NBA draft meaning we can decide when to leave(?) if so were probably going to get to play at least more then one college game. Hopefully this means a draft combine (hopefully)

Thought the same thing. But it also could be one of those achievements that's just a automatic capture like you play your Freshman year and then once it's over, you get the achievement that says "Declare for the NBA Draft" but you didn't really have a choice. Hope you get what I mean lol. But I am hoping you're right. I just can't wait to start actually getting news.

Interesting, having colleges would be a great addition, no doubt. I would better if they were official NCAA licences, but something's better than nothing It would be great if we could played overseas instead of going to college, like playing an EuroLeague season and then go to the NBA. I don't see that happening though.

Lol yea i know what you mean because i thought the same thing but tried to ignore the thought lol, but in any case this is good news and a step in an awesome direction.

We need to start a "Go Fund Me" page for NCAA Basketball licensing on 2K's behalf. LOL!

They did where you coulkd do a college option in The Show 14, but you never actually played for a college. I have a feeling that is what is going to happen here.

Doesn't 2K know that by having those removed from thr CLC website, it basically confirms what we suspected? LOL.

Well since you're reading this 2K, I will preorder any collector's/deluxe version of the game and continue to purchase VC if it means that you will secure more college licenses in the future.

Also, get some more Nike gear in the game for the MyPlayer Store.

If (huge IF) those schools are playable, would those get the players that got drafted this year? Like Stanley Johnson and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson playing for Arizona?

[drugsbunny]

I would love it if you play through high school and then have the option to either go to college or straight to the league. If you go the college route, you build up your attributes more and develop easier as you are playing with college level talent or you go pro and start with limited stats as you do normally but they increase more as you are playing against pro level talent.

Re: Could NBA 2K16 Feature Real Colleges? We Dissect...

My guess as well. 2K will probably start you as a senior playing in a high school state championship game, then decide where you go to college, then have you play in the elite eight all the way to the National Championship. After that, you declare for the NBA Draft. The story begins...

I think that could be how it goes. Maybe you play 3 tournament games total and every time you start a new player the 3 teams you play against is random. So one year you might play UConn, Arizona, and Wisconsin, and another year you play Kansas, Arizona State, and Louisville.

The only way to distance themselves from Live would be to bring back college hoops. If they had an exclusive deal where college hoops was part of the game, and payable separately, it would make it impossible for cats to pass up, do a my player from college to pro's 1 n done style, or longer. That would be hot. They already allow you to create draft classes, which live doesn't, and with the lawsuit out the way, this is and would be perfect.

I say distance from live, because they are gaining on 2k. Keep it real. And if they could incorporate a ncaa 10 style mode into their game, it would be over
