And I could picture people complaining more about that than having an understanding that some things are physically impossible to do. Either way, no one should be leaping to conclusions regardless.

Yep, I was thinking about that aspect when I learned of the head scans as well. And you're right, no need to jump to conclusions at this point, but I surely would have preferred to hear something about classics than to not hear something. I'm hoping there's a way for 2K to include faces they're not able to physically scan firsthand.

I really liked hearing about the Emotion+, the different arena lighting, wing spans and coaching adjustments. Would have liked to hear more about gameplay though especially player tendencies.

I have no interest in My Player or Crew modes.

Still waiting on any footage to be shown.

I don't remember his exact words, but he said that classic teams are in basically. It didn't sound like there would be any subtractions.

All I took away from this was:

"..No warmup outfit for bench players.."

Disappointment!

# 165 Gosens6 @ 10/23/13 05:49 PM

Ahem, still waiting to hear from all those people who guaranteed it would just be a port with minimal improvements and bare game modes.

Are we allowed to say I told you so to them yet? This is about to be the longest 22 days of waiting I have ever experienced.

# 166 green225 @ 10/23/13 05:49 PM

looks like the game will be great, but they're screwing the crew fans over again, so i won't be buying it. all this work into my player, that's cool, but at the end of the day, we still gotta play against the computer. that's not any fun.

At this point what I REALLLLY want to know is, can me and my friend use different teams in this mygm mode?

We loved to use two teams on franchise mode.

# 168 MoultonHawk @ 10/23/13 05:50 PM

Where's the My Team info that is teased in the first few sentences ?

There won't be any footage today. So don't waste your time if that's what you are waiting for.

Strangely, I've never really pictured myself as the GM when I played Association in the past. In fact, I didn't really picture a GM at all. I try to keep a feel of it being an extension of a real life NBA team. So I guess if I were to picture anyone (with my Pistons franchise), it'd be Joe D.

I don't want my GM looking like Louie's agent

But I'm assuming that's not what it's really going to be like anyway.

It's all good man.

# 172 BenGerman @ 10/23/13 05:53 PM

Now we know why this game is a 50+ GB download. Holy ****.

Did anybody consider that by this not being a port, that the gameplay might be different? And not in a good way? I realize that are adding a ton of features and that is good.....but let's hope it still feels like 2k. I was completely ignoring NBA Live since I don't know what to expect and with 2k I know exactly what I am getting. Now I am not so sure.

Again....I'm not trying to suggest it will be bad....but not every change is for the better. Madden changed their engine going from original Xbox to Xbox 360 and it was not for the better....

Now I am crossing my fingers and hoping to hear some positive words about the gameplay.

Peace.

# 175 sk @ 10/23/13 05:55 PM

Any news on whether we can use two teams in the mygm mode?

Then that's pretty ridiculous IMO.

Amazing graphically which everyone acknowledges but we can't even see a snippet of actual gameplay at this point? Nothing?

The game can look great visually but what will be telling is how it plays.

We're just supposed to keep going on assumptions?

# 177 RayDog253 @ 10/23/13 05:55 PM

I think this just saved my PS4 preorder from getting canceled. Because I don't think I can wait a week for XBOX one to play this.

I considered that thought the other day as well but my follow up thought was perhaps their knowledge of how to get the game to play how they liked would allow them to carry that gameplay on over, even if it's not a true port. Does it work like that? I'm tech development knowledge deficient, so I could be off on that thought.

The current 2K engine is suffering from some of the same bugs since the early 2000s. Thank God they have finally created a new engine.

# 180 Gosens6 @ 10/23/13 05:58 PM

Just let a friend of mine read the features list. He's not a sports fan AT ALL, he's never even touched a basketball game, let alone watched one. All he said to me was, "Wow man, these features make me want to become a basketball fan"

2K has succeeded.
