I'm still in. Sable, how do you wanna handle dibs on Washington? Since we haven't seen pages 1 and 8, I don't know if there's any other Northern Virginia cities on the list. If there were, I'd be willing to take one...

I assumed you wanted young (said as much a couple pages back), but i'm not really sure if your bluffing so you can get montana.

LiveWire you can take Washington, I'm ok with that. I'll go with Buffalo (since I live up around there now) I guess if that hasn't been taken if there is no other NOVA cities on the list.

I've seen a APF 2K8 ad about 3 different times today on TV. It was a new ad with Rakim (not the "Rice Returns" video) that showed a bit of new footage and focused on the game in general. It was nice to see.

Oddly enough, the ad was shown on ESPN and ESPN2.

how bout they try harder to get a demo out? Figuring THE BIGS doesnt have a demo yet, this game is a longshot.

Hopefully they'll have one out in a week or so. The interview on gamespot made it sound like the demo would be out around the same time as a the game.

Good point about The Bigs . . . where is the demo for that?

don't bust a nut yet ladies.

there are not enough legends in the game to have everyone with a unique team. and if the game MAKES you pick legends from the get-go there will be no other way to run the league than to have a limited # of teams (unless we want duplicate players... which i dont)

Well, I wouldn't care if there are duplicate players . . . let everyone pick their own dream team (subject to the game limitations).

But to solve your problem with unique players, there is still the create-a-player option. You could create your own legend players that are not in the game by making your own determination as to their special attributes.

I wonder how the 'create-a-player' option works . . . maybe it is something like gold players get 5 special attributes, silver 3, and bronze 2?

Ok I may have miscounted but I counted 61 gold players... So that alone limits us to 30 players....

I'm hoping theres an option to have a team full of Generic players...That alone means we dont need to have 11 legends each.

Why do you really care if you have duplicate players? You work with what you have right? If they had put 400 legends in the game then we wouldn't have to worry. But wouldn't each team have a unique roster? It's unlikely that teams will not pick the same players.

Ok fixed its 59 gold players!

edit1: There are 79 silver players!

edit2: There are 109 bronze players!

247 players o_O?

That's only 18 teams without duplicates due to the shortage of bronze players.


If we allowed duplicates on bronze players ONLY after every bronze players was picked we would then be limited by Gold players to 29 teams.

Who would be the poor one left out gold player
 
19 teams

3 gold each
4 silver each
5 bronze each

The rest can be generic players?

SickBoy said:
29x2=58...

(But the other issue is that 29 teams isn't really an appropriate size for a league).


Right so one gold player would go unselected. I was just joking saying who would be the unlucky gold player.

Ahh, durr. I thought you meant which team would have to go with just one.

Of course, the left over gold player would be Emmitt Smith :)

dont play dumb! that play aint in 2k8, I will stop your running game!


OH YES!

I think I'm better at running in NFL 2k5 to be honest...
You can't stop whoever I pick to be like Portis

By the way the running backs who are going to be in this game are pretty sick

You guys would always create custom Gold/Silver/Bronze players as needed. I know that takes away some of the fun, but it's something (something I would like personally, but I'm not in this thing)
