Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
Thanks for the spoiler topic title. Guess I just need to leave OS for the next 8 hours......."Baseball is the coolest sport because, at any moment, the catcher can stop the game and go tell the pitcher a secret" - Rob Fee -
Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
Yea, remove that spoiler from the title, I wanted to go into the mode not knowing stuff like this.Comment

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
Well it makes sense. Spike is a movie guy.
If you were writing a basketball movie you wouldn't show every single game, only key games.
So you would show a couple games from the high school days, 4 or 5 from college including championship. Then the key games from the rookie year, the ones that define you.
I fully expect those games to have staged scenes where you have to hit a game winner or defend a team mate and take a T. Like in 2k14 (?).
Then the movie ends and youre into standard career.Comment

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
It is actually more games than eight.
SpoilerThe rest are simmed your rookie year
The number of games played in high school and college is located in various spoiler spots in multiple threads if you care to look for it too.
As long as the story is real and immersive I am o.k. with how I hear it working so far.
Won't know for another 10 hours or so either way.Comment

WHAT. THE. HECK. if true.
2K, just give us authentic NBA seasons we've always had. Stop screwing with this to push a forced story. I wanted to work through my rookie year journey and vie for rookie of the year over a compete season.
Is the second season 16 games and 3rd an automatic championship in a best of 3 series? After which you're forced to play a 5 game season in Italy and come back to the league for another 8 game season before forcibly retiring and being moved to MyGM?
Come on 2K. Stop messing with the NBA in an NBA MyCareer.
Sigh. Some of the worst news seems to be dropping at the 11th hour.Last edited by Sundown; 09-24-2015, 03:02 PM.Comment

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
I know it is hard to believe but once we are thru the "storyboard" part of the mode, it is actually very good. The offday/offseason simulator is a real improvement it seems.WHAT. THE. HECK. if true.

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
Which is why I wanted a full season as a rookie. I wanted the whole "this is really happening" experience and making decisions as a wide eye first year while balancing team priorities. Gah.Comment

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
Sorry guys, I didn't realize this would be considered a spoiler. Can I edit the title or does a mod have to do it?Comment

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
Part of the story this year is the first year. Nothing we can do about it... but when looked at in comparison to the rookie seasons of most, the end results of year one is close to what actually happens.
I, personally, have more issue with the idea of us all "being" Freq and us all sharing the same parents and friends.
Hopefully, this is the last year they do this story-board concept and we both are happier next year.
Edit:You should be able to edit the title. PM 23 if you have trouble. He is usually on about now.Comment

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
Honestly, I never felt satisfaction with any of it because I couldn't actually see my guy receiving the award which takes away from the experience anyway. I get guys want the option, but it's only a short sacrifice to complete the story and I'm cool with it this year. Hopefully from here on out they'll abandon the forced narratives and just go for career determined cutscenes.Comment

Re: My Career Rookie Season is Eight Games
I wouldn't call predetermining an entire year of your guy's rookie season a small sacrifice. I'm fine with all the story driven stuff before the NBA and all the cutscenes in between, but isn't the core of this mode is supposed to be, at the end of the day, YOU creating a character and playing in the NBA? Taking basically the entire rookie season, one of the most important of any pro, out of the player's control is a huge deal imo.Honestly, I never felt satisfaction with any of it because I couldn't actually see my guy receiving the award which takes away from the experience anyway.
