Awesome! I'm hoping the cpu performs 3 team trades as well, not just user initiated.

Just looking at the licensing rules/fees now and man. Duke's royalty fee for Men's Basketball is 14% which doesn't even include the 4% ACC rate nor the rates for the different types of licensing.

For example there's an ACC Co-Branding License which allows the use of all non-event conference logos but not the use of ACC Championship event logos, references to ACC Champions or "collective use of member institutions and ACC logos."

Then there's the ACC Collective Use License which allows you to produce designs with equal representation of all conference insitutions and a non-event conference logo. Even with that license though, you still don't get to use the ACC Championship event logos, references to the ACC Champions, or "single team or gameday/rivarly co-branded use of institution and conference logos. That license gets you NO ADVANCE payment and a royalty rate of 16% collective use of all member institutions' logos + ACC logo fee. I won't even go into the fees for ACC Championship Event licensing and the ACC Champions licensing.

I bet (especially if Spike Lee is about to REALLY script #BeTheStory) they'll let you get to choose a decent range of generic colleges. "Dallas University" and stuff like that, play some key season games against fake rivals maybe, and then a College Championship.

Seems like Crew will be omitted once another year...



But the other news is nice. I'm missing Crew, but since 2K15 was maybe the second best 2K I've ever played and then hearing about this news like online leagues, college and etc, take my money:





I'm Going Pro, Capeesh?15 (15)
Declare your intentions to enter the NBA Draft.



I am wondering if we can possibly play more than one year in college or will the story force you to leave after your freshman year.


V-G-G, Vic Gotta Go!15 (15)
Listen to your owner's opinion on Vic.


Seems like this will be a friend or agent you grow up with or something that's a bad influence.


Gym, Tan, Laundry, Gym15 (15)
Unlock the gold version of the Gym Rat badge in MyCAREER.


Seems like you earn your badges again. Wonder if you have to earn Silver and Gold now instead of just being able to purchase them.


Diamonds Are Forever15 (15)
Acquire a Diamond Shoe or Contract Card in MyTEAM.


Not big on MyTeam but what the heck could a diamond shoe be? Possibly boost attributes permanently instead of boosts for one game.

Exactly how I felt lol. That's why I read a little and said "F" it. Don't even bother with that licensing stuff anymore. It's so confusing when it comes to Madden player tattoos, colleges, etc. Forget it lol.

More thoughts on relocation. I am interested in how in depth this will go. I also wonder if you will have a pre-determined list of cities (probably) to move your team to. I also am curious (and hope) if you can change your teams uniforms/logo/mascot name.

I am a huge Lakers fan, but it has always made me chuckle how they are the Lakers due to being in MN before. It would be cool to move OKC or whoever to Seattle and make the Supersonics again. I'm not sure if that is possible or not, but would be cool.

The more NBA 2K adds every year, the more I get scared. I know I will have bad dreams tonight, picturing Manu Ginobili playing on the Spurs' Summer League team because of some stupid glitch. I think we need to calm down and wait for the "DETAILS" to come out. I want to see this in action before I drink the "Killer Kool-aid" and that gameplay better come correct on August 5th, 2015.

Side Note: The 3 team trades and Relocation sounds legit...
 
# 111 Melbournelad @ 07/15/15 01:11 AM
Relocation? 3 teams trades back? Summer league?

Better come or what?

I hate when people make posts like that.

King that licensing thing is ridiculous man. Id settle for create a college myself if it can be put in the game especially my league

Hope the gameplay holds up and that the 2016 cap is representative of what will happen in real life, other than that, I'm stoked.

For the life of me, I don't get why these things are such a big deal to people in Association modes? Is it the dynamic of developing a talent pipeline? The NBA isn't the MLB or FIFA. That just doesn't happen. I'm just saying I don't get. Not belittling.

Seems very entitled to get somethinf you asked for only to ask for more like it doesnt matter. Seriously can we at least enjoy aummwr league first

For the exact reason why we want the practice squad in the madden games, realism. Plus the ability to send down useless second round picks to clear spots for other players etc.

I'm not sure anybody actually asked for summer league, I know people have wanted the d-league in the game because it was in previous basketball games, glad we got the summer league and all that, but it's pointless.

What players are my first and second round players going to play with? Randomly generated players? Will I actually have the option of choosing players from my roster to play in the summer league?

There are still questions and just things in general to put out there and hope a developer sees it. With the release windows of these games, as a fan and a customer, you better ask now or its more likely you have to wait a year or more.

Look how long people have wanted 3-team trades. It's been what, 3 years since its been in the game?

Just want to make sure things are actually thought out and not just dropped into the game as a back of the box feature. And the best way for that to happen is early feedback.
