Developer Posts Wrong NBA 2K13 Roster Update, New Roster Arrives Tomorrow

[jeremym480]

Man I hope when this roster update comes it has all the missing players and is 99.5% accurate. If not, like a wise man named Bubba once said, "It's gon' get ugly in here".

Why do people keep defending 2K? Seriously, stop doing it. You are making a fool out of yourself when you keep saying "2K doesn't owe you anything".


1. Every game out there drops some kind of patch to fix bugs/glitches= improvement

2. Every sports game has regular roster updates (transfers,signings,trades,...)

3. Every game has updates (accessories,...).



If you guys think 2K shouldn't do any of this and just keep it AS IS, how ignorant can you be?
1. No one would buy this game

2. 2K would shoot itself in the foot for doing this

The gaming industry has changed massively. I I know it's more difficult compared to 10 years ago to make games and it takes a lot of time but that's normal evolution. I know companies try to work as fast as possible and good as possible but sometimes they are just lazy and think "oh well we can patch it later on, 4 months after the release". That's a horrible attitude which is being used a lot. That's the way 2K (likes to) works.



Back in the days games had to be finished on time and the developers had 1 shot, it was hit or miss. If your game had too many bugs you were screwed so they tested their game extensively. Today it seems, because of the deadline problems they are facing, is the lack of testing. A company like 2K should use their brains and let us, the audience, 2K players, test the game extensively 2 months ahead, 1 month ahead, 2 weeks before the release and then play the final game 1 week before it comes out. So that when millions of people who buy the game get a proper game without the most obvious errors.

How in the hell is it possible that 2K doesn't notice the MyCareer glitch? How is it possible that the scoreboard dissappears? How is it even possible that 2K thought the autosave would be a good thing?

I seriously can't believe that 2K actually tested this game, no way on earth. I see the most stupid things. Play 10 hours and you'll notice them.


I'm really wondering what is going on with 2K. I knew this would happen if EA didn't release an NBA game this year.

2K sports is good at hyping the **** out of this game. They spent a lot of money and time (I know, this is the marketing department who does this) on hiring Jay-Z and probably paying for Bieber and other nonsense. Next time they should use the few 100k/millions they got on hiring new educated and smart people who do their job properly. The basics -gameplay- first (I must say, I like the game this year, 2K12 was horrible we all know that), and then keep yourself busy with what the little kids would like.



EA ****ed up big time, it's a sad thing. I'm 99% positive that 2K would treat us customers in a totally different way when there would be competition with EA Sports.



2K sports is a company that doesn't know how to communicate and leaves us in the dark.

I can not believe the all the losers who complain about meaningless things like what rthe courts look like and if players are wearing the right colored headbands, armbands etc etc.

Spare me that bull****.

All that matters is that every player with a guaranteed contract is in the game. Accurate rosters are what matters.

Who gives a **** about decorations?

Can someone tweet him back with the following..

[ManhattanBeachLakers]

lol @ people defending 2k for this horrific roster updates.

In case you should know, MLB The SHOW updates their rosters EVERY Monday morning and it includes every SINGLE player (including no-name rookies) that play for the team. Now that is dedication, part of the reason why I respect Sony Sports more than 2k.

Why isn't it enough for you to just say you want accurate rosters?

Some folks like their games as accurate as possible, others aren't detailed oriented and just want the "basics," and some folks just mash buttons and couldn't care less about anything else.

It's super short-sighted to tell other people they're wrong because they don't see it your way.

Preferences, my man. When you ignore them, you look ignorant.
