That's the acknowledgement. Period. Expecting anything else beyond that post from 2KSports is just nit-picking. I gave an example of how a THIRD patch was completed within 3 weeks of NBA 2K19's release date. I just didn't feel like digging for when Patch 1 and 2 were dropped respectively.

    I love how you took one item (pushing from NBA 2K19) and tried to make it your trump card for your entire argument. Nevermind that Mike Wang has already made adjustments to the game based on feedback on a freaking demo. Nevermind that Mike Wang adjusted the speed of the game, but later apologized for overdoing it. Nevermind that there's a hotfix coming tomorrow (Saturday) to buff/nerf certain shooting aspects in the game. Nevermind, once again, that's they announced a patch is being worked on. Nevermind that there was a patch that was recently dropped on the PS4 on the Monday after the Friday release. Nevermind how many patches were created to resolve problems with NBA 2K19 before they addressed the pushing.

    You basically ignored everything that's been done up until this point, or are you waiting for 2KSports to email you directly? I can create an email for you if that will make you feel and sleep better. To say that 2KSports is "ignoring" the community is so unfounded. Yes, Ronnie went silent, but Mike Wang is still engaging people on Twitter. You need to get your head out of sand son.
    Lmaoooo you just don't get it. I wont waste anymore time on the subject bruh lol. Keep safeguarding 2k headquarters though. Hopefully you'll make payroll one day.

You all want "answers" as to why Ronnie "lied" and what's being done with Ronnie relative his role with NBA 2K. You all want 2KSports to collectively kiss you all's asses and apologized profusely for the bugs/glitches that are in the game. You feel that the "customers" are entitled to answers, and damnit, you all want them now! Man...miss me with all that nonsense.
        I haven't heard anyone asking for that level of detail, but people are entitled to answers. 2k put out a product saying it would function one way, consumers bought the product expecting it to function the way they described it, the product isn't functioning as described, and consumers want it fixed to function the way it was originally described.

        2k should hold Ronnie accountable and provide an explanation as to why he was providing information that wasn't accurate especially in the context it happened. Whether he did it unintentionally or intentionally, it made the company look dishonest and exploitative. It's not just the fact he gave inaccurate information, it's the fact he gave inaccurate information AFTER people were under the correct assumption they would be buying the game with that specific feature not being changed.

        I've been in the Customer Service field too long and long enough as a Representative and Manager that I can write the script how most Customers will react. They LITERALLY posted about the devs working on a patch, and most "Customers" are STILL not happy, but I'm supposed to sit here and pretend that "transparency" will suddenly cure the Customers' anger towards to 2KSports.
        Transparency won't cure everything, but for some people it would help a lot. Customers shouldn't be happy that they have to wait for something to be fixed that shouldn't have been broken when they bought it. It's not like 2k couldn't have changed the release date of the game.

        Here's some more cliche comments that I would have given the Twitter crowd...

        "We apologize for the inaccurate information that Ronnie gave via Twitter and during live, authorized streams. We're going to look into our current procedures regarding information that's to be given to our Customers before the release date. For future releases, we want to make sure as a Company that we giving you the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding NBA 2K, so that you can make informed decisions regarding your future purchase. Also, the inaccurate information seemed to be a popular feature that our Customers was looking forward to, so we will work with our development team, and see if that's something that can be implemented for NBA 2K21 on the next-gen consoles." (Doesn't throw Ronnie underneath the bus and sets up future, low-key buzz for NBA 2K21)
        I'm not sure plugging the next game would not be helpful in this situation, especially when you add "on next gen consoles." It could hurt the buzz for the next game and makes the company look worse. No explanation is given about how Ronnie ended up giving false information and then you're suggesting people spend money on the next game for a feature you admit STILL might not be in the game?

        "We're providing an update today. Our Development/Engineering teams are still working on a patch to address the bugs and glitch brought to us by the NBA 2K community. The videos, pictures, and feedback that was provided by the community has been extremely helpful in determining the root causes for some of the bugs/glitches, and our teams are working to the best of their abilities to address as many issues as possible. At this time, we can't provide a timeframe for when the patch will be completed, but we do appreciate your patience and continued support as we work to bring you the experience that you expected of NBA 2K20." (Lets the people know that the patch is still coming, and pats the "community" on the back for their "feedback". HOWEVER, it's written in a manner that we're not promising that ALL issues will be resolved).
        Still looks bad, because the product release date could have been pushed back originally and you provide no time frame for when this will be fixed or what exactly is being fixed. Since a representative, Ronnie, has already provided false information, there is a credibility issue that vague responses aren't going to help.

              Re: The uproar on Twitter about 2K20

              Hello, everyone.

              We have a new patch out today for NBA 2K20 on PS4 and Xbox One. It will arrive on PC and Switch sometime soon.

              Here's what's included in the update:

              Fixed a major issue that was causing the game to hang at intermittent times (e.g. when accessing the VIP Stats menu, when completing games in Domination, when playing Play Now Online games, and more).

              Addressed a number of issues in MyCAREER to greatly improve the user experience in that mode.
              Fixed an issue where some MyPLAYER names would disappear (may need to create a new build to correct existing saves).

              Numerous Gameplay improvements & fixes including: support for standing stepback escapes and finishing alley-oops with Pro Stick, out of bounds awareness improvements, more reliable interior shot defense contact detection, logic fixes for certain badges, and much more.

              Addressed an exploit that allowed users to play players out of position in MyTEAM.

              Fixed an issue where some users were reporting they were not receiving the correct reward cards from Domination games in MyTEAM.

              Fixed an issue where some users were not receiving their awards when achieving new Collector Levels in MyTEAM.

              Many, many more fixes included to improve the overall experience of NBA 2K20!
              Oh look! Communication from 2KSports.

                I’m loving the gameplay.

                Glad I’m not a fan of My Player, My Team or The Park. So I’m not experiencing what the madness is about.

                Favorite 2K yet. WNBA is ton of fun and different.

                    And this is why Twitter is such a worthless platform to communicate with. Mike Wang is trying to be a human, and people are making derogatory remarks. Yet, 2K Sports should be bending over backwards in trying to be transparent?

                      And it'll be those same people screaming "Why doesn't 2k communicate with us???" when Mike, too, decides he's finally had enough of this abuse.

                        Due to this thread, I've been SERIOUSLY reading the comments and replies on Twitter regarding NBA 2K20 for past 3-5 days now. Dude, the level of disrespect is off the charts. Mike Wang is probably making good money, but he's not making that much money to be taking abuse for the sake of taking abuse. I don't give a damn how a big of a mistake a company makes, that doesn't give anyone the right to start hurling personal attacks.

                          Don't read it then. For the most part I don't, most of it is dribble anyway. Regardless, 2k uses Twitter to communicate with us, so they better expect communication back. If they don't like it, close the accounts, and find another way to make announcements.

                              I mean, I don't care if people if people want to trash the official 2k20 twitter (unproductive as that is). But this is Mike Wang's PERSONAL twitter. He states this at the very top of that page:

                              2K Sports - Gameplay Director for NBA 2K (the views I express are mine alone and they do not reflect the views of 2K)
                              Even the stuff he tweets out that is completely unrelated to 2k gets angry tweets from people unsatisfied with the game. That's not right IMO.

                                I agree. However, since there is no vetting as to who's who and who can say what, he has to take the good with the bad.

                                It's the same as when famous people ask for privacy when their out in public; it's the fame, and lack of privacy, that makes you famous. Don't like it, leave the spotlight and all that comes with it.
