Joe Montana NFL Football 16... AKA NFL 2k16... Madden's tyrannical monopoly coming to an end?

[Rags]

fugin finally

 

NFL or not (Really hoping for multiplat NFL licensing) i'm excited for 2K's my player in a football game. Love it in the NBA games.

The agreement has a loophole that 1st party titles CAN use the NFL license... just not multi-platform ones.

 

I have no fuging clue why they wouldn't use the NFL license if this really is a Microsoft exclusive.  It makes zero sense to go all out to contract 2K to create a 1st party football game (which they know would poo on EA's Xbox shares) and then just turn around and make some generic Arena League Football type game.

 

They know it's the NFL brand that sells.

 

I don't know.  I know it's pure false hope and naivety by this point, but maybe it's a smoke screen.  They have been keeping this whole thing rather close to the chest.  It wouldn't be hard at all to release some images with some misleading skins of gameplay before the game's release.  That happens a lot actually.

 

 

If that was the case 2k would have just made an exclusive game for a platform or Sony would have made a football game by now. This isn't a Xbox one/PC exclusive, that was a rumor, this doesn't even have any details attached to it except it's known that it doesn't have NFL teams in it because it doesn't have access to the NFL license. 

 

JM16's biggest draws will be if it's released on PC and it's story mode. If it's released on PC, it will take off because of the modding community and the lack of a proper football game on PC.

Lol well luckily no one on this board gives a flying fug about your opinion, despite how delusionally highly regarded you may think it is.

It's not even a trading card game. Like your knowledge of the subject isn't even a percentage point so anything you say after that literally means nothing.

Invoking the Panda rule?

I will literally buy an xbox one just for this game if this is true.

That hasn't been confirmed, and I would be SHOCKED if it was true. If that was the case 2K never would have stopped making NFL 2K, they just would have made it console exclusive to Xbox or PS.

You buy card packs.  You open card packs.  You get cards.  You put together teams with those cards.  Since "trading" can't realistically be done without someone taking advantage of it, you can put cards up for auction and bid on cards.

 

It's exactly like a trading card game.  It's basically Yugioh with a fuging soccer/football theme.

 

Lol sorry if I hurt your little fanboy feelings, but yeah, I know exactly what it is.

[Zaximus]

If it's on PC I'm going to love it.  The potential for mods on there will make this better than Madden with updated everything.

They are players. You get players to put together a team and play soccer with those players. Nothing like a card game or yugioh. You honestly have no clue what you are talking about its sad.

It's actually very much like a trading card game which is why I don't waste a second of time on it. It's a time or money sink that I don't have the time for, and don't care to spend actual money on.

As a guy who plays actual trading card games it's nothing like a trading card game. All these "cards" are representing is players. When you go into the actual game you are just playing with your players. It's no different then playing madden with a custom team of players. The players are just in forms of cards but it isn't even a trading card game. That would be like me calling kickball soccer because you kick the ball. The only thing they have in common is one thing but they are completely different.

It's really funny people not even playing FUT or "wasting their time on it" yet think they have enough knowledge on the subject to actually know what it is.

[C47]

I've played FUT. It's just not nearly as fun as manager mode or be a pro so I don't anymore. You collect cards to make the best deck (starting xi and bench). It definitely has ties to a trading card game and if you can't see that....welp that's a you thing.

This isn't being made by 2k.  They haven't announced any platforms yet.  That link you posted, OP is from a site about as credible as the onion.

 

Hate to burst anyone's bubble, but don't get too excited.
