First of all, I’m not defending 2K. I have posted MANY complaints against them on their forum, mainly about the online lag.

I’ve been hanging out at 2K’s forums since Feb, and this is the first I’ve heard of this “Opening Day Roster” you speak of.

If you read the threads there, you’ll see over and over again that people are giving the same answer I posted above about why the roster didn’t come out on opening day….

I can give you tons of links to these threads if you want. In fact, I’ll start a new thread on the 2K forum with a collection of links for you

You are the first one I’ve heard of talking about this “opening day roster”, so this “everyone” you speak of seems to be more in your head, lol.

Ronnie (the 2K PR guy) said that the first roseter could be expected “a couple weeks” after opening day, not on opening day.

Again, I am not defending 2K. I think it would be great if they did weekly roster updates like Sony does, but unfortunately we can’t expect as much from 2K. Sad but true.

And yes, I agree, 2K definitely should’ve given us a roster update by now (if not on “Opening Day”), so this whole discussion is really irrelevant by now.

Let’s just drop it

We can drop it, but just so you see it yourself, Google “Ben Brinkman conference call.” You can find myriad recaps of the call and even the call itself. There, Brinkman says there will be an opening day roster. It’s been reported here and numerous other places; unless 2k closed the threads, I’d be shocked if it was never discussed at those forums. However, I guess I’ll take your word for it.

Deal, we’ll drop it. This isn’t a site for pointless arguments anyways. I like Pasta, he runs a great site here, so we’ll drop the stupid thing. No hard feelings.

Sounds good guys, no hard feelings

I honestly had never heard of Brinkman’s promise about the opening day roster, so I was just going by what was said on the 2K forum…..so it wouldn’t surprise me if the threads telling the truth were deleted….wouldn’t be the first time.

So yeah, they should of definitely given us a roster update by now regardless. Sony on the other hand is doing a great job with it though.
