But another thing, imagine who the insider is, it could be a 2K employee who is just a fan that would kind be disappointing because well, it's not the right person working on the roster, he's a fan of basketball but not a person who looks at the tape/stats and analyzes the abilities of a player or the insider is a known basketball guru who knows how to analyze these things, that's respected, which would be also disappointing, since the quality of the work isn't the greatest. And if you post a pic, it wouldn't be believable since well, you don't seem to work for 2K. Lastly, the point you made about the insider needing to work hard, yeah, this is something that's wrong with the rosters, its just rushed work with not much care handling it.

Sure you were joking. You still sound clueless and don't get my post.

Again: If LD2K posted a real picture of the 2K insider. WHAT WOULD THAT PROVE TO YOU? Again: Nothing. So what does it matter if he did?!

# 62 Angel_G @ 03/28/13 09:08 AM

it would prove that there is one. Basically what he wants is the insider to be like LD2K and Ronnie so they appear on videos and have his own twitter so the community can send him the issues with the roster.

honestly.. if i were the insider, i wouldnt want you all to know who i was

I used to post in the Roster Update threads but then i figured out it was POINTLESS. People have been making Suggestions since the game was RELEASED and Still MOST things havent been fixed. I mean I KNOW how much times it takes to Edit the COMPLETE Roster. Once you have the Initial Roster Base done you can do Player Updates in an hour or less. I would suggest everyone find a Custom Roster you enjoy or Edit what you feel 2k has left out, because you will NOT get a complete Update this year.

It would prove that:

1) There's an insider

2) Who he is, if he don't look familiar, then he's just an employee to do the updates, not a basketball enthusiast who actually spends time with the roster research and determining who deserves boosts/decreases.

That's pretty good. Your haircut is suspect though.

# 67 Twista209 @ 03/28/13 11:21 PM

I am done buying NBA2K from here on out. Empty promises continue and the roster updates are simply insulting. I bet I only played 20 games since this game was released, with all the missing players etc the game is just not real enough. I will just stick to attending games in the RL and watching them on TV. Such a shame

JR Smith, that is all.

# 71 Thunder Storm @ 03/30/13 11:39 AM

# 72 LoSoisNiCEx414 @ 03/30/13 12:24 PM

Tobias Harris went off for 30 yesterday, if he was a Laker he would be rated higher than Earl Clark

A lot of people would like full rosters to start associations and not just online casual play, regardless of how fringe the players may be, just like the real NBA...which I thought this game was supposed to uh, simulate?

# 74 tblack228 @ 04/01/13 02:20 AM

I understand everyone's pain, but if you aren't strictly online/myteam then you could simply find a custom roster, or even edit your own. Even if the 2K rosters had every missing player, it still wouldn't solve the issues that truly plague various game modes.

Simply put, these default rosters are made strictly to appeal to the casual gamer IMO. If you're a hardcore sim Association/MyCareer player, these rosters produce horrible simulated stats. So just fix them yourself or use one of the many great ones on OS.

If you're a hardcore online guy then you're SOL unfortunately.

O, and overalls are 100% meaningless unless you're playing MC or association mode.
