So do GMs start offering less terrible trades when their trust in you starts going up? Are they at least more willing to negotiate?

How bad are PC controls if you don't have a external controller? I'd like to play it if it's not horrible, but it probably is.

I use this USB receiver that you can hook up to an XBOX controller. Sports games are unplayable with mouse and keyboard.

For people who have played GM in the past, how hard can it be to re-sign rookies in this game? The Sixers offered me Noel for Pekovic just before I stopped playing last night but I didn't pull the trigger because I already have so many young guys on my team and I'm worried about what happens if their contracts all start coming up at once.

Get real good lighting. Hold the camera closer to your face.

After taking a few games to get used to the controls again I gotta say this game feels really great. I wanted to start off on the bottom as a Small Forward for the Raptors but still I'm enjoying the feeling of improving from totally eating poo poo at the scouting scrimmage game to actually kicking a lot of rear end at the first proper season game. I'm terrible at defense though, I can keep some guys locked up but if they assign me to anyone half good at their job they just wreck me.

One thing I do like, on your social media feed as a player kinda no matter what you do there's always at least one dude poo poo talking you. I have a bunch of guys saying 'yea he's looking good' and just one rando saying "oh you know the coach isn't happy with him after that game".

Offense is really fun in this game but defense makes me want to throw my controller through my screen. Anthony Davis was just 20-20 in a game I played online where I was double teaming him down low and boxing him out on rebounds. The guy I was playing was just flying in jamming Y and getting every single rebound then immediately putting the ball up with no regard to my guys putting their hands in his face. I started doing the same thing with Melo after the first quarter and ended up going 15-16 with him.

This happened to me too. The first time, it actually wouldnt even register any letters at all and just remained blank. I restarted it a few times and exited out and clicked on the enter email address and eventually it worked normally.

The stuck letter thing actually has to do with your mouse curser, so just move your mouse (or use it to input stuff, whatever).

Well, I had my drapes opened to get some natural light in here, except it's been raining so that's not really helping anything. I realized the black smudges were from me turning my head too much, and my hair getting in the shot.

I'm on attempt number 7, drapes are closed and lamps have been moved around to get more light. I came close on attempt #5, but I ended up having two different shades of skin on separate sides of my face, and it looked like I had a black eye. And my mouth was slanted slightly.

I hope to god in reality they are just capturing tons of basketball nerds around the country trying to get this to work and will sell hours of video of people trying to re-arrange their slovenly hovel so their basketball man looks like them.

Is anybody playing the Career mode? Have they improved the stuff outside of games at all? Do you still have to sit through inane, unskippable 10 minute conversations with your GM in a hilariously low quality office just to ask for a trade? I heard about them removing the rookie showcase and basically letting you choose what team you want to play for. That sounds way better, but does it actually work as advertised? Do GMs still randomly make nonsensical trades that completely butcher your team and leave you with poo poo all for teammates despite the fact that you're winning a ton of games?

I'd say it's about 94% accurate.

Took me about 10 tries. I still have a noticeable discolaration on my right cheek, and the place where my face and neck skin meet is very apparent. And once I start up in the mode, my face doesn't look like that anymore. Oh well.

I thought my face was a passable representation. Cheeks were a little too red and my eyebrows were invisible. All the next gen stuff available and I still feel like my face was never more accurate than on Tiger Woods 2004 on PS2.

It is all fully featured. Biff and I played the 95-96 sonics vs the 96-97 bulls and it was basically the best videogame ever made.
