I wouldn't bet on that. I thought that it would not come back in Madden either, but it did this year. I am still buying, but it is beyond frustrating that I will not be able to enjoy the game fully, because of this omission. This is the very reason I don't buy NHL or Fifa, I just cannot enjoy a franchise type mode if I cannot at least play any game I want. Even just a season mode would have worked great for me.

To be fair, these are consumers and this year it's going to cost a significant amount of money to upgrade to 2K14 on the next generation console, so I think it's quite normal for folks to be weighing the positives and negatives here. For those whom 30-team Associations were their primary means of playing and enjoying NBA 2K, I do not think it's an overreaction to be bummed and question whether to make a purchase that's likely to eclipse $600 altogether.

I disagree with your forecast. I believe 2K will reintroduce some form of Multi User Season Mode in the future. Thanks to forums like this developers have the chance to see the impact of their decisions within the community. We've seen EA (famous for removing popular features) reinstate full user control within their Madden game whilst also adding a Single Season Multiplayer mode in their NHL game.
I agree with you, Next Gen NBA 2K14 is going to be one hell of a basketball game but with myself having no interest in Single Player MyGM it will still feel like it's been stripped back from current gen. That's not something usually associated with the series or 2K in general.

So are they removing the season mode too? All I do is play season modes one with the current teams and another with classic teams mixed in. I like the option to make all the trades in real life as they happen. I preordered PS4 for this game pretty much.

Yup.


"aholbert32: It looks like that didn’t make it to next gen either. No separate season mode in next gen."

"aholbert32: Mygm is the only way to play a whole nba season in next gen."

As long as they have Association and MyCareer mode in Next-Gen, I'd still get it.

I only ever play as one team but I think it sucks when devs take away options from players and I really feel for the people that this effects. I think players should be given every option possible to tailor the game to their liking so they can enjoy the game the way they want to play it. I hope that this (along with other things that were left out) is re-introduced next year and that this was only done because of time constraints this year.

I would be really disappointed if this was the way I played the game, I had been anticipating the game on next-gen and then this news came out. Sorry bros.

No chance I'll be picking up the NG version now. I'll stick with the CG this year.
