I can name at least 20 top 5 picks in the past decade alone who never got a shoe deal regardless. Pick placement doesn't determine marketability or how good you are/will be. Kobe was picked 13 afterall.

Might be the way its been delivered, I dont know but I think people are more interested in other parts of the game than this initially
The only real "new" tidbit of info we got for my player were the draft interviews and mock draft. We already had the marketing with the billboard and such(which isn't to say it's a bad thing, I enjoy it and it adds to the mode).

I have a feeling that they are saving the good stuff for the insight. I just HOPE that the insight is entirely new info and not repeated things from throughout the week.

True but Kobe didn't have his "own" shoe as rookie either.

I didnt expect them to show any new stuff when he said they will be releasing 2 pics a day until Insight. If they would of released nothing but new pics and just explained the pics in the insight, I wont be anxious for the insight. I actually dont mind the way it has been released. Saving the best for last and just showing improved features.

hopefully with the signature shoe creations they actually give us more flexibility to customize it.

I see the red in the back and front of the shoe looks like you cant make them seperate colors ...ugh
Baseless claims have no place in 2K12. Sit tight.

The screens are nice but Its all about the insight tomorrow, like the adds and endorsements are a nice deal but the most important part is still playing basketball. What AI improvements are made, how do they keep the mode fresh. Can we adjust sliders, season length. Hoping for some good things from the insight.

Exactly. We have gotten Appetizers so far. Alot of us are waiting for the full-course meal. The screens are good, most BAP modes dont even have any non-game features. But, in-game is where it counts the most. Custom Sliders, Season Length/Simming games, and progression is what most of the MP gamers want to hear about.

You'll like it here. Enjoy your stay! And be sure to read our TOS.
 
# 35 23 @ 09/08/11 04:20 PM
Thats funny

New people dont read the TOS... its justification to post what we feel no matter what, then blame you

If 2k doesn't have red shoelaces ill be ticked

I love my player I just wish we had a college2k game that we can start with with but hey I guess I'm asking for more than I can get

I don't see how people are being let down with the teasers? Obviously there saving the best for the insight and actually the teasers were better than I expected. Cool features that add re-playability. My number one request for contracts are in, now all I really need is realistic minutes when you sim until your in the game. They put you in the game too soon and for too long before you earned the minutes. Everything else is gravy. I do hope for all star weekend events, maybe selecting an agent and more cut scenes.

Y'all are funny.

I don't understand what people want in My Player..

Everybody complained about actually doing things like starting out on the low end and working up thru training drills, summer league, etc.. and seems like they listened to the whining.. and you'll just go to the NBA.. then complained about the player not being good enough, now people complaining about him being too good.. now people complaining about billboards/shoe/extraneous stuff.. what is it that you want them to say??? If you want to just play sim basketball with a top notch player why not just play the regular game??

Seems like peoples idea of what My Player should be are really weird..

Just edit Lebron James and change his name to your name or something and be done with it..

Other than that, whatever you're trying to say didn't come off very clear so try rewording it.
I just want to know what kind of things people would get excited about for this feature.. people keep saying 'nothing new' - what do you want??
