There are spoilers from here on out, which sounds like an insane thing to warn about a basketball video game. Early in this mode, you're navigating the stardom of high school. You get to play three games of your career one in your home gym, one in an opposing gym, and the state championship in a bigger arena after choosing between three different high schools. I was a Parkside Dragon and quickly after my first game they only give you two-minute quarters so it doesn't take much time , I'm approached by three different real colleges.
It's similar to the recruiting monologues in "He Got Game" when coaches are speaking into a camera to tell Jesus Shuttlesworth about their college. Georgetown tells me about their NBA tradition, Villanova tells me about how their style of play is similar to the toughness of streetball, and Louisville is promising me the possible titles and awards available.
Connecticut lets me know this isn't their "first rodeo" with recruiting stars and the fit should work because "navy blue runs deep. Michigan offers up the tradition of the Fab Five and breaking Glen Rice's records, but eventually UCLA woos me with the promise of sun and their "banner of excellence" -- whatever that means.

In college, you're given four games to play with each game consisting of two five-minute halves.
While your play on the court matters you'll get to face off against Kelly Oubre when you face Kansas or Frank Kaminsky when you face Wisconsin , the real story comes from the announcers telling your background during the game and the headlines on the loading pages letting you know that your draft stock is falling. They call you a Top 5 pick prospect before your first game. No matter how you play because I dominated the first game , your stock takes a dip. At a certain point, they wonder if you'll stay in the Top 10 or even the first-round altogether.
However, in the fourth and final game, I beat Wisconsin in the National Championship game, which presumably saves much of my future selection placement. Before the draft, you're introduced to agent Dom Pagnotti, who is trying to convince you to jump ship you don't actually get to decide; you're out of college after your freshman year. In fact, they brought back that particular actor to do the voice for his character.
Your parents are on speakerphone while you and your sister talk to Dom. Dom starts doing the Freq'ing and Vibin' celebration. He's preaching how much money you can get and the concerns about getting injured in college. Your dad is preaching education while your mom lets you know to stay true to your decision.
But you don't get a decision because staying another year would be boring. You're headed to the NBA, but not before your new agent informs you that your best friend Vic is bad company to keep and you should cut ties with him. That's where we really start going. The insanity of your rookie season is the real story you're unraveling with this mode. While you may wonder how you build up your character on the court that comes later , you're learning about the debacle that is his life off the court.
Does anyone know if I accept this endorsement if it. So you have to do 3 endorsements with Adidas and after the 3rd you get your shoe deal.

You'll face various tests from your conference, a homecoming they mention when you go to Brooklyn for a road game, and a match-up against LeBron James at some point. If you had dreams of turning your rookie self into the Rookie of the Year, you're not in control of that.
You get just the eight games. Here are the storylines that you experience with a new cut scene after each of your eight allotted games, and I'm not making this up:. The owner mocks the way you talk, and after he unearths a TMZ-like video of Vic drunkenly talking about an alleged incident in front of a cop car, we find out that the owner once had a card-counting gambling friend who died, and you are urged once again to part ways with Vic.
Remember the "platinum and diamonds" speech from Dom in He Got Game? It's in here. He reminds you of this so he can force you to let him use your car. How airtight are those rookie contracts? Once your rookie season is over, you're a free agent I guess not that airtight. You get to pick three teams to negotiate with and every team has a different level of interest in your services. After negotiating how much virtual currency a. VC you get per game that's how you buy attribute upgrades and how long your contract is, you celebrate with your family.

You get to pick your 10 "connections" and choosing to hang out with them gives you different rewards for various modes.

The main story steps aside and you get to just build the career of your player, but it's always a lingering side story.
From there, you're just trying to manage your time and build your player. Maybe you want to focus on building his brand and letting the on-court attributes build gradually. Maybe you want to skip the endorsements and risk your marketing growth to concentrate on practice or league relationships with other players. However you want to build your player is up to you.
The franchise mode of NBA 2K16 is as robust as it has ever been, and the theme appears to be connectivity.
