euroleague rosters not updated?

Fri Feb 14, 2014 10:24 pm

I downloaded the latest roster update for nba 2k14, but I see that euroleague rosters are still from season 2012-2013. Am I doing something wrong, or 2k sports does not plan to update euroleague rosters in the future for 2013-2014 season?

They aren't updating the Euroleague teams.

Funny thing about that:

Rob Jones said in an interview with a german reporter, that it wouldn't make sense to NOT update the euroleague rosters...

Possibly a misquote or a bad translation?

It could be that they simply don't have the likeness rights for any new players coming in. The Euroleague license is apparently pretty expensive.

No, the reporter uploaded the interview as a podcast. Nothing translated I listened to the original interview in english. Rob Jones definitely said it would make no sense to not update the rosters.

Yeah, I'm sure it has something to do with licenses. But then why is he saying something like that?

Perhaps he wasn't aware of the full situation, since handling the licensing for that stuff would likely be above his station. Perhaps it was originally their intention, but it turned out to be unfeasible; since it wasn't widely promoted in every preview or mention of the Euroleague teams, they probably didn't see fit to follow up with any clarification.
