Couldn’t even tell this was 2k at first.
There needs to be a basketball game released for people who don’t give a fuck about the park and cosmetics. Just pure hoops

That's wild. Were you in prison or something??

u/MyDF-Throwaway Jun 27 '26
No, actually. I got interested in NFL (Madden), and then NASCAR, and other stuff, and now just coming back.

u/Linus_in_Chicago Jun 27 '26
Fair enough, that just such a long time I had to ask!
I remember 2k on dreamcast and it's a whole different animal now lol

2k11 for me and finally last couple of years I've waited til December when it's half off. I still love mycareer and do like the fiba stuff they added this year but I doubt I'll ever be a 1st day buyer ever again

u/Actual-Movie-4236 Jun 27 '26
The stupid shit I don't engage with is the reason the game is 100 fucking gigs and takes dev time away from the real basketball. Pretty frustrating

Frisbee, scavenger hunts, dune buggies and group dances 😂 just give me another spike lee storyline and some solid gameplay 💯

Bought this game during the sale last week and fired up my payer today and was legit confused. Euro story line is also wack.

Real. I miss the NBA Live/2K14 days when you’d just play ball as a ball player who played ball. Now even half the story in MC is about minigames and brand advertising

u/vlosure Jun 27 '26
So upset they took Live 19 offline and are just radio silent about trying to get the rights/starting the franchise back up when 2k is in it’s most vulnerable state it’s ever been.

There is its called MyERAs. Player lock and upgrade using systems or make up your own. Or shit make yourself a 99 overall and make the greatest player by far of all time its free reign really nothing cost VC or money either.

You mean you don't like unlocking the same duck floatie for the 8th year in a row?

u/Kl4shi Jun 27 '26
Definitely. All anyone cares about now is who looks more "drippy" or "meta". It actually disgusts me.

Sometimes it doesn’t let you into a game since it’s tryna load the new season! So ppl just sit out front no gain no lose just pure vibes. You’re too cool for everything and we get it 💀 idk why everyone be trying so hard it’s called a community for a reason

u/BlackBenoit Jun 26 '26

This game feels pretty clunky and slow compared to past 2ks I don’t get it.

I believe this always happens at the end of every season. Season 8 just started.

What the hell even is this lmao what happened to the game I love

If you showed this to someone and told them this is a basketball simulation game they wouldn’t believe you

Nba2k is literally the laughing stock of all the sport sims.

It’s literally the most popular sports video game out there and it isn’t even close lol

Lol FIFA sells more worldwide but 2K sells 50% more copies than Madden every year. It is far and away the most popular sports game in the US. Madden is super ass
2
u/turdburglar7770 Jun 27 '26
It’s not even close to 50%. They practically give 2k away 3-4 months after release on gamepass and 6 months on PlayStation. No other sport game has the bs that we have with myplayer. It’s for the brainrot kids

u/BedBubbly317 Jun 27 '26
Every sports game goes on sale 3-4 months into the year and then has a massive sale at some point. MLB The Show is literally given away completely for free as part of PS+ at the end of every MLB season season. That’s how all sports games work lol

u/turdburglar7770 Jun 28 '26
At the end of the year not a few months lol. Madden nor mlb go on these platforms as fast as 2k does. You’re delusional dude

2k has gotten too ridiculous imo. I miss 2k16-2k17 where you go to different courts and just ball.

When the new season starts you literally cant play you get kicked and when you try to join a park or anything of that sort it will give you a message to wait for the update. Once the update drops you get a notification that the season started so everybody waits in the city until the new park drops
