NBA 2K15 has a new mode - MyLEAGUE comes out with many surprises
Recently an interview of Rob Jones and Erick Boenisch, both Sr. Producers at Visual Concepts was taken in which they talk about a new mode for NBA 2K15 called MyLEAGUE which is exclusive for Xbox One and PlayStation 4. In the game, MyLEAGUE offers both a single season or up to an 80 year franchise experience and players will have complete control over every aspect of how one’s league plays out.
Here are a few excerpts from the interview:
Q. What was the inspiration behind MyLEAGUE, and what are the goals for this year?
A. Well, we heard the community loud and clear about wanting a mode that could be fully customizable. A mode that is more of a sandbox of options without limitations. That is what MyLEAGUE is all about. MyLEAGUE gives users the flexibility to do what they want at the pace they wish to do it.
Q. Here is a question our old Association mode guys want to know: Can you control multiple/all teams?
A. Yes, you can control from 1-30 teams in MyLEAGUE. Additionally, you can also import Classic and Euroleague teams into the mode.
Q. What kind of customization options will there be for season length?
A. You can play either a single Season OR an 80-year Franchise with a season length set to 14/29/58/82 games per season. You can also customize the playoff series length.
Q. Can you customize the number of teams allowed in the playoffs?
A. No, the league is still based on the NBA, so the playoffs reflect the league’s playoff structure.
Q. What adjustments can we make to the draft class? Can we edit names/attributes/abilities?
A. Yes, you have full editing over the draft class. In addition, we have added back in a robust create a player system. Details on this will come closer to launch.
Q. Final question, what else would you like to convey to OS’ers about MyLEAGUE?
A. MyLEAGUE is just the start of a number of announcements that we believe the OS community will welcome. It’s a mode created for our core user, who wants the NBA just the way they like it. And the best part, there are still a LOT more features (including core logic) for this mode that we’ll be talking about down the line when we talk MyGM (as these features are shared between the two modes). We’re ecstatic to see what you think about our year 2 next gen efforts now that we’ve had a year under our belts with the consoles…
All these answers have got us drooling. We cant wait till we have the game in our hands. It is a feeling shared by many fans all over as the excitement builds up for NBA 2K15. Here’s a little taste of what to expect as the game’s cover star is seen in action.
