It's quite simple really... the Insider needs the blog again. The quality of roster updates has markedly decreased since the blog was discontinued. Interaction between the Insider and the online community is virtually non-existent as of now.

# 22 Shelb @ 11/01/12 01:01 PM

This has gone from comical to just straight up pathetic now. Why even release another roster update if they did nothing of significance? Yay, Eddy Curry on the Mavs! How about adding missing players instead of just doing someone we can all do ourselves and calling it a roster update?

# 23 knick9mm @ 11/01/12 01:04 PM

Has Prigioni been added yet?

# 24 Frizzz24 @ 11/01/12 01:08 PM

The reason they probably took down the blog was to put some distance between the gamers and suits at 2K. They simply don't care. It's ridiculous that the phantom, apparition, 2nd cousin to Harvey the Rabbit 2k Insider needs us to tell him/her how to do their job in this regard. If they cared, they would get it right...but obviously they don't care. What they should do is hire the likes of J2K9, Tomba, The Lorn, Barockafella as to get the simple details of the game correct.

# 25 Frizzz24 @ 11/01/12 01:09 PM

And hire either Tomba OR MKHARSH33 for simulation slider settings instead of just putting everything at 50 and calling it a day...especially since they spawned their brainchild of eliminating slider share...great decision there 2k.

# 26 Twista209 @ 11/01/12 01:12 PM

Very upsetting to say the least with this roster update. Probably the most unprofessional gaming company when it comes to community relations and fixing issues. Once they get their money they are done.

Ability to slider share There are other things I can think of but I think you get the idea. They more we allow them to slack the more they will...particularly with no outside competition.

Hex edit is not a feature of the game. You can't hold that against if they block that out because it's not technically suppose to be done anyway. The hex edit rosters don't help 2K in any way.

This. I said it in the last roster update thread. That really needs to be brought back. Things we implemented a lot faster that way and 2K was given info a lot faster that way.

I agree for the most part. I think they're busy focusing on how to make more $ with the current title (by selling accessories in MyPlayer), or on more things they can take away in the next title so we play THEIR game the way THEY want us to play their game. I think a company focused on CS would offer as many game play options as possible, not strip things away that worked well that people like.

All though I do appreciate that they do a couple patches a season to fix bugs/glitches, and updated courts, as far as updating rosters correctly, they are atrocious! And they need to stop lying about stuff, such as "whoops, put out wrong roster, etc." My 3 year olds can lie better than that. I often wonder if this company is run by adults or teenagers in some regards.

I know it's not and has never been a feature in the game...it was a fortunate gateway that was closed by 2k because they feared these hardcore gamers would outperform their own devs and make them look bad. My gripe is why close it? If anything give gamers MORE options, not less options. It's a power/control thing by 2k. Instead of thinking of ways to give us more options, they are striving to give us less so we play the game THEIR way instead of OUR way.

My beef is, once I buy the game, why can't I play it any old way I want? If I want to put goggles on players who don't wear goggles, or create a ridiculous looking shoe and put them on ALL the players I hate, etc. It should be about more options, not less. But, with every version we have less control/options, and it's slowly turning people like me off of the game. It's like being fed filet mignon one year and cube steak the next.

# 32 trekfan @ 11/01/12 01:29 PM

2K bugs me. They put out a great game but can't seem to do a simple thing like get transactions right. This wouldn't have been an issue two years ago ...

2K kinda reminds me of Shaq in a way. He was just cruising along there in LA, winning titles and stuff but he could have been more dominant if he just put in the work consistently ... instead he rested on his laurels a bit and he couldn't keep that dominance going.

It's the little things 2K ... you can be more dominant that you already are but if you keep failing at these little things your dominance will end eventually.

Thank God we have such a great community of people here on OS who take the time to make the game better.

# 33 Find_the_Door @ 11/01/12 01:35 PM

Man...

Portland still needs the following....

ADD:

Joel Freeland

Victor Claver

Sasha Pavlovic

REMOVE:

Shawne Williams

Fix Babbitt's jumper (change shot base to Set Shot 14)

Remove Aldridge's high socks

Add Lillard's PADDED Sleeve

Fix the rose garden's court!

# 34 MAGboyswifT27 @ 11/01/12 01:44 PM

@Frizzz24 I'm a check that roster out now, good lookin' out!

The 2K Insider also needs to update the teams/coaches tendencies and teams playbooks with the roster updates.

If they did block it out it is not a power/control thing nor is it a fear of being out done thing. It has everything to do with them and their relationship/contracts with the NBA. This year the hex edit rosters have gotten far more attention than ever before. There was major sites showing things in the game that was not suppose to be seen yet. One article even had the title things 2K and the NBA doesn't want you to see. That puts a strain on things with the NBA and could actually hurt us the customers in the long run.

Granted we here at OS now the difference between a 2K roster and a hex edit roster but everyone and most importantly the mass media doesn't. When those articles and photos hit the net all it says is these are items unlocked in 2K's game. That gives the impression that is available well before it is suppose to.

Don't get me wrong I have no problem with hex edit rosters and have used them for a couple of years but we can't realistically get mad at 2K for trying to limit access to things that aren't suppose to be shown or used until the NBA gives them the ok to do so. Trust me when I say 2K would much rather piss of the guys here and other places that use hex edits than to piss off the NBA and put their contracts and relationships in jeopardy. That would/could cost them far more money than losing the very small percentage of possible customers who wouldn't buy the game if hex edits where completely blocked out.

# 37 walnuts56 @ 11/01/12 01:59 PM

Nets:
Mirza Teletovic – 3 year guaranteed contract

And he is STILL NOT IN THE GAME!!!!!

2kSports = ******s

I have to say, this is one of the most intelligently articulated posts I've read in a long time. Extremely insightful, courteous and educational. Amazingly enough I never thought about it in those terms. Excellent points though. Thanks!

# 39 JasonMartin @ 11/01/12 02:07 PM

is this the 3rd update?

1st: 2K uploads "an old" roster
2nd: 2K admits uploading a wrong roster adds the new one
3rd: roster update, this one?

# 40 Frizzz24 @ 11/01/12 02:08 PM

Technically yes, it's the 3rd update since the 2nd update was done in error and replaced the next day.
