With the create a player option has anyone noticed that when you put in a name it pulls up suggested names below.


Anyone see when you type Vin.........it brings up Vinatieri??? Coincidence??? NOT! So who is making to rosters so we can use the transfer kit to load up the real teams and add on the legends????

You can't create real NFL players. I'm sure you can make players with common names but you can't make Vick, Tomlinson and others.

So to answer your question, I'd say never.

Well seeing that you can only put up to 11 created players on a team....I am going to think it's impossible.

Vick's name isn't an option to choose.


Plus he's going to prison anyway. :lol:

I've already created Deion with his 2 TD dances. yay.

And Merton Hanks TD dance is in their, I'm pretty close to the full Niners team. Too bad I can't find a way to edit generics

Can't u just type in V I C K? You dont have to use the suggested names I thought? Or you could use Ron Mexico I guess. Or Bubba's Biotch???

You can type in Vick. The announcers will call him "#7" if he's not in the data base. I created a thread last night about making NFL teams and playing with them online. I've already played several games online using my Cleveland Browns created team.

here's the thread i created:
http://www.2ksports.com/forums/showthread.php?t=128683

So to answer your question of how long until..? my answer was only 4 hours after having the game. I just wanted to see how many created players you could create because the rumor was 8, but i have 12 created guys right now and i'm sure i could add some more.

Only thing that sucks, the browns helmets are easy to make. Any other team wouldnt make sense.

Also, being the Browns, you shouldnt have any gold players :)

LOL!! This is very true. Kellen Winslow could be considered close though (he led the league in catches by a TE last year). So I made him and Braylon Edwards the two gold players.

Side note: when i was playing last night, i caught a one handed touchdown pass w/ Edwards. After he scored, he dropped the ball and did the Randy Moss moon! I couldn't beleive it. I don't know if anyone else has seen it yet, but i was laughing my a.ss off.

I heard in some other threads you can manually name your team to whatever you want. Is this true, or are you the Cleveland B's

My team's The Cleveland Red Dawgs.

I played the Green Bay Pack last night and i don't remember seeing the Pack as one of the team names you could choose from.

The real question is 'Are the physical roster files able to be edited on a PC via a transfer kit?'.

If there is an element of editing outside the 360 (on PC in this case) then it may be possible for a programmer to make an App that allows all the Generic players to be edited fully through roster/season save files (allowing for full customization of whatever you'd like).

This obviously means that a dedicated coder would have to sit through and attempt to figure it all out, but it would be interesting to see either way (I've never tried it, so I have no knowledge of how easy editing 2K Sports stuff is).

DENVER BRONCOS

Champ Bailey: Gold: (Ball Hawk, Closing Speed, Speed Burner)

Javon Walker: Gold: (bump buster, route god, soft hands)

DJ Williams: Silver: (big hit, run reader)

Dre Bly: silver: (ball hawk, closing speed)

Travis Henry: silver: (power, branching tackles)

Jason Elam: bronze: (accuracy bonus)

Jay Cutler: bronze: (rocket arm)

Ian Gold: bronze: (run reader)

Tom Nalen: bronze: (leadership bonus)

Sam Adams: bronze: (reach tackle)

you can make anyone but if you play online it only shows there first name and it does not show a name on eth back of the jersey...you can see it on your player but no one else online can see the last name or a name or the jersey just so you know

I like it. Broncos are my favorite team. I would rather see lynch at silver, than DJ williams, or Henry.

I would also put another lineman on there since Denver is known for their awesome O line. Looks good

No. Both players can see it. I was playing a guy online and he brought up Willie McGinnest having five tackles when the stat line came up and showed it. And when you have a big play with one of your players it will show his name before they show the highlight.

I thought about dropping williams to bronze, but i cant think of a player to drop to bring in another Oline. I could prolly drop Ian Gold, and throw in Ben Hamilton.

That's interesting, seeing how I created the Falcons last night and played several online games with someone under center with a number 7 and VICK printed across their back..... He isn't quite as fast as he probably should be, but I just created a scrambling QB with the speed attribute and a cannon arm. He plays surprisingly as I would have figured Vick to if he were in the game..... So, to answer the original question, I'd say now.

It doesn't have to be one of the choices. You can name a player literally anything that you want to. You just have to type the name in.

Lets start creating these teams. Decider has a good broncos formula, and The guy who started this has a browns formula. Anyone else?

Lets upload unis. Rogerconnerys version of the dolphins looks awesome

I made the Falcons as soon as I sat down with the game.... well, 11 of them anyway, but close enough!

You know this could be turned into an NFL online league if 32 people are willing to join. ;) I found two guys that are creating the Rams and Patriots over at OS.

Hey guys, if this turns into a league I'll create the Bengals!!

Carson and Chad the Golds obviously ahahah!

bump.

I'm going to go ahead and start an online league for NFL teams. I'll create another thread for it, but I want to see if there is some interest from people in this thread.

I got the Browns and CoreyDB has the Bengals. Every other team is open.

Kraven has first dibs on the Falcons since he's created them and thedecider has first dibs on the Broncos.

Alright, well that went unnoticed. I created a league though, but I don't know if 32 people are going to be down to create an NFL replica team and join the league.

The league name is "NFL Season" and the password is "nofun" if you have an NFL replica team, feel free to join. I'll try to recruit more people.

If you've made an NFL replica team and want to play the Browns add me to your friends list: philr 21

I might be interested. Even though my team is the Browns, I could choose another team.

So, has anyone determined exactly how many created players you can make? I hope that it is at least 11 to match how many legengs you pick for your team.
