    Team Relocation in MyLEAGUE

    As you all know, MyLEAGUE is our ‘sandbox’ franchise mode, where anything goes. In this experience, you will be able to rebrand and relocate teams without the requirement of going through the application, voting, and approval process. If you want to move the Thunder to Seattle, you can do that right away. Go ahead, no one is going to stop you!
    This is really amazing news for those of us who want to relocate/re-brand a team right away before the first season. I am still looking forward to creating my all Kentucky Wildcats Roster and it appears Louisville is one of the cities you can relocate a team to so...yes. That said, if I'm forced to be called the "Louisville..." whatevers I'll be a tad bit disappointed. I refuse to call my team the Louisville Wildcats lol just sounds weird and UK/UL fans know why. I'm sure there are some cool nicknames to choose from/create so that will be part of the fun.

    Moving teams to Vegas and of course Seattle are also on the agenda!

      I'm sorry, but MyLEAGUE Online is a failure of it's just what they said.

      No off-season, no draft picks, no players retiring, no free agency = no point to dedicate my time.

      I played 8 seasons in my 2K12 OA and 6 in my 2K13 OA. I'm not wasting time in that mode if I can't even build my team for the future.

        Oh man

        Thank you, thank you, thank you. That was the best developer blog I've ever read.

        I'm so appreciative of the listening, the attention to detail, the passion, the hard work of technical implementation, and mostly this adopting of customization, with regards to the freedom given to us! Thank you! You've opened up doors of creation and expression by doing this. That's what life and the universe is about!!! (Foreshadowing - Hoping create a player, and global sharing may lead to historic seasons, teams, arenas, jerseys, etc! Man, basketball heaven! If not this year, then perhaps soon!). Bravo!

          I find it amazing that you guys can add all these new features and game modes but when it comes to the online leagues, you always manage to leave things out. Having a league I can play with my friends against users and cpu online, playing multiple seasons and having fun in the offseason with the draft is all I've cared about and ever since next gen 2k14, you continue to leave those features out. I'm just a simple cog in the consumer machine,I get that but all these other modes I simply don't care about for more than 2 weeks. For the first time since 2k6, I'll keep my $60

                Can we put up some animated gifs for the jumbarton? I would love to create my own animated defense splash!

                  This MyLeague Online sounds okay, but is still selling us online gamers short. No offseason, no draft, no free agency = point less to continue with more than one season. Sigh. Another year of getting short changed.

                  I mean my God, just copy and paste leagues from 2k12 and 2k13 at the very least. Stop giving us half-*** modes.

                    Some of you guys think of new ways to not like something easily man
                    I can't help but to consider the what if's. It's not like I seek them out purposely. Those thoughts simply came to me when I was reading the blog. I fully embraced those two components as is when I read the blog, but 10 minutes later, I simply had to consider the "possibilities."

                    It could be up for discussions for NBA2k17 or never, my desired speculations.

                    With all due respect, there is nothing half-anything about this feature. I live in Mount Juliet, TN...which is near Nashville. Why would anyone want to have a team in Mount Juliet, TN? I think you are talking about about less than 1% of gamers, if that that would want to move a team to some random smaller city/town. I suppose they could have put this unrealistic feature in. On the unrealistic features thought, there are no plans for the NBA to expand anytime soon so would seem silly for 2k to do that. I agree with you on OKC and Seattle...I won't be moving OKC there. I may move the Kings there or something (which could have happened) and won't feel any sadness for the virtual polygon Kings' fans on the game in doing so if I do.
                    I'm happy that you don't believe it's half baked. More power to you.

                    Personally, it can be considered half baked, half something or even one-third or three-fourths something if you don't consider the possibilities when creating something magnificent such as "team relocation."

                    I'm glad people working on NBA2k looks to explore and implement more than limit what could be done, and actually consider the possibilities however small it maybe. Some people may call it unrealistic, but it's not unrealistic if it's remotely possible. Some people simply would like to have a can-do attitude.

                    There are thoughts on creating part of the NCAA. There are small towns with college basketball teams and these locations could very well be destinations for our virtual NBA. It may or may not be "realistic" but it should be in our virtual NBA because realistically it's possible. It's not like it's completely forbidden.

                    Davidson university, Rutgers university, what about relocating an NBA team to Palo Alto where Stanford has a football and basketball team? What's the likelihood of an NBA franchise of ever sniffing Palo Alto? Whether or not someone thinks a certain location can realistically support an NBA franchise, but if it's remotely at all possible, it is by definition realistic.

                    On the unrealistic features thought, there are no plans for the NBA to expand anytime soon so would seem silly for 2k to do that.
                    Again, can do attitude. Are there plans for the NBA to relocate teams anytime soon? Regardless, implementing a feature (team relocation) that could potentially be a game changer for those that choose to use it, should consider the what ifs (team expansion, relocating team to an extremely small town). The virtual hardwood is here for gamers to live out their fantasies.

                    Team expansion happened once, and it could happen again. Just because it's probably not in the immediate foreseeable future doesn't mean it's never going to happen. Our virtual NBA game goes up how many years (2025, 2050, whatever it is). It's not like there are gamers that play NBA2k16 and will stop playing it once they reach year 2018 - immediate future. What about the gamers that push their franchise to year 2050? What's in store in the year 2050? Don't limit yourself.

                    I'm going to go off on a tangent. MyPlayer (although I don't play the mode), there are individuals creating "themselves," giving themselves attributes where their real self have no business giving. Probably a sector of the population giving their own MyPlayer dunk packages couldn't even dunk with their real self on an 9 foot rim to save their life. There are probably grown adults who are no tall than 6 feet creating a virtual self that's greater than 6 feet with abilities that mirrors Lebron or Kobe or Jordan. That's even more unrealistic than seeing a new expansion NBA team in a small time city.

                    Just because it's "un-realistic" for small towns to truly legitimately get an NBA franchise doesn't mean it's not "realistic" if you get what I'm saying. It could happen is what I'm saying, even more so than a decked out MyPlayer.

                      Wait..Will all this stuff be in MyLeague as well? If so, that is freakin awesome. Just hope everything works properly. Would be awesome to move a team to Louisville.

                            In a sports gaming world where these online Ultimate Team type modes are getting more and more priority its really feels really good to have one major sports game that takes offline franchise seriously. The older I get the less I play sports games online (its too stressful, less fun, the lag, the cheese, etc.) I really appreciate VC for providing a deep experience for offline players like myself.
                            I only have one small complaint, I just wish you could save and carry your MyLeague and MyGM progress over to the next version of the game like in MLB The Show.

                            PS. Glad to see the monthly calendar view back, hated how it was in 2K15.

                              I agree with you completely. That mode is the only way I'm able to play 2k all year around. The last two games I sold to my cousin after the first 4 weeks I played it
