Have you seen the video for the city? All the assets are recycled. The actors are recycled. Just about everything is recycled except the player builder which is like 70% recycled. I'm just pointing out that they are at the point where they aren't even bothering to change the name of the character. SMH. It's a point of emphasis. It tells you where to set your expectations.
I read the 2k article and seen the pictures but I didn't watch the video(I'm at work). Sounds like you expect a completely different game (or at least myplayer) every year and that's not realistic.

I honestly don't think it's a bad nickname I think they should keep it rather than try to change it to something dumb like that orange juice shyt. Or maybe just let you pick a nickname. I rather them focus on improving gameplay than changing little thing like that and it seems like that's what they've done this year.

That's because the game itself isn't bad unlike Madden. It's the VC, cheeses, and the split between the park players and the offline players that people complain about

That’s the main difference between 2K and Madden to me. We complain about 2K, but at least they try.

EA & Madden don’t give a single fukk! They don’t even try to fix shyt.

No. I don't expect a completely different game. I expect what they put out. But I also don't think it's worth the full price that they charge every year. Imagine them releasing God of War every year with the same assets re-arranged and then they ask you for full price. It's ridiculous. And you wouldn't buy it. And yes, I know, you don't HAVE to buy 2K. But you kinda do if you want to play a basketball game. I wouldn't utter a word if there were 3 or 4 games for you to chose from. At that point, if you want to buy the same game for full price after you see that they didn't change much, then that's on you because you have options. That's not the case here. If you have most of the gameplay in place already, then you should have a bunch of time to go heavy on the fine details. And they don't do that.

Yeah but that's the point I was making. Imagine them allowing you to create a fighter for a story mode in Street Fighter and his nickname is FG for Fighter Guy. It's just lazy as hell. Then they use it 2 years in a row. It's like they couldn't even bother to come up with a name like they did in years prior. Again, the game is FULL PRICE. I'm not mentioning any of this if the game had a $20 price tag.

I refuse to pay $149 for a champ version.. give me the $69.99 joint

kinda makes sense if you have no intention of getting NBA league pass

I’m getting the $149.99 joint so I’m getting the game for “$69.99” plus league pass for approx. $79.99 when it will typically cost $99.99 and I’m getting all the extra stuff (the VC is all I really care about tho) that doesn’t come with the basic $69.99 version for “free” essentially

between 2k and cobra kai, tomorrow gonna be such a wasteful day :ahh:

And they spent even less time this time around and are charging you more. The games where they used those names the price was 60 bucks. If your argument is that they didn't spend a whole lot of time thinking about it in the past, well why stop? Why not take the 10 minutes you did before to come up with a new name? Stop making excuses for these people. Let's be clear. I don't give an actual shyt about the name. It's the principle.


Sidenote.....kudos to you for phrasing your reply like you thought of all those names off the top of your head and didn't go and google it. LOL. No shade, it's just a thought for a chuckle. :heh:
