    Unable to do expansion myGM

    I am not finding a way to do a myGM with an expansion team. I will be so disappointed if you can't. That was the number one thing I was looking forward to. You could do it last year. Somebody please tell me I'm doing something wrong and there is a way to do it.

    I dont have it but I am hearing the same things. I honestly have no idea why they would think this is a good idea. I prefer MYGM over Myleague yet love doing the expansion route. And now its gone, I wonder if it has to do with the Story mode aspect. Its honestly devastating news.

      This is a killer for me. I spent 100% of my time with 2k17 doing myGM expansion franchise. I thought the story mode myGM was going to be cool but I don't even see myself doing it now because I want to do an expansion team, and with a 3 year old and a 1 year old I definitely don't have time for two franchises.

      Hugely disappointed. That killed my excitement for this game within minutes of starting it up.

          Since MyGm is a story-driven mode I understand why they wouldn't have expansion teams.

            See thats not true though. The mode isnt story driven. It has implemented a story but it has stressed that its all 100% under user control and not pre-determined like Mycareer is.

              So can we do an expansion team in MyLeague? Can we do an expansion team at all? Can someone expand on this that's playing the game right now, I'm at work and didn't look into this last night....spent like an hour trying to that dang face scan gimmick.

              I was looking forward to this since I passed up NBA 2K17.

                I agree -- I was so close to doing a last minute pre-order pick up, just like dahlzy19, I skipped NBA 2k17, but liked how you could create expansions.

                I know you can still relocate teams and change the landscape around, but is it possible to start a MyGM/MyLeague with an Expansion team?

                Please let us know who have not picked up the game yet.

                      Appreciate the insight, I'm not that disappointed then. Once again, didn't play MyGM in NBA 2K17 but it always seemed MyLeauge was more suited to an old school Dynasty player.

                      Still will check out MyGM though! From my understanding, you still can relocate a team.

                        I loved my expansion team last year but I wound up doing it in myLeague, not myGM... I feel like the financials have always been a little off and with the expansion team in myGM it just seemed plain broken. Like night just too difficult but just plain broken. I would give more details but it was eleven months ago, again I just did myLeague and had a blast because I filled all six slots with other teams as well to use as measuring sticks to how I was doing.

                          Was also considering doing an expansion team, but couldn't do it, so I just tried the mode to see the story. Simmed a whole season of MyGM. Story is only for 1 season. No more story afterwards. Dunno if I did anything wrong when starting the mode, but wasn't even able to use a custom roster. Weird how they'd take that option away. If I'm wrong, do correct me.

                            I think everything you said is pretty much right on. Basically they ruined myGM mode so they could have a story line for one season. Seems like a pretty poor decision in my opinion. If they thought that would draw more people to myGM I think they will find they were mistaken. If you didn't like myGM before you won't like it now (at least not after the first season). And if you did like it before you aren't going to like it now (because of the restrictions on expansion, draft classes, and rosters).

                              That's pretty weak, I went 30 plus years with my expansion team in NBA 2K17...
