NBA 2K22 Impressions Thread

Re: 2k22 Impressions

Did the NZ thing for Xbox series S and so far I'm enjoying the game. It felt like a chore controlling the players (last gen version since I didn't get next gen system till a month ago)

The players movement is much more tighter. I always felt it's because of the slow dribble animations.

Moving backwards with the ball is quicker and doesn't feel like you're in mud.

Love the speedier shooting.

I love the paint defense as I had 2 back to back blocks with Mitchell Robinson. He actually jumped and tracked the ball to block.

So far this version of nba2k has actually rekindled the fun factor for me. Moving forward to future versions I hope they stay the course and not listen to Twitter and keep the defense on playing tough.

I wonder if the injuries will come out during online competition in PNO or MYTeam?

Re: 2k22 Impressions

Thanks to everyone for the impressions. This hyped me up.

Only thing I'm worried right now is if the progression/regression + G-League bug + RFA are fixed in myNBA.

Would be great to be able to start a myNBA right away

Re: 2k22 Impressions

2K21 was definitely more clunkier to me.

I'll let the dribble heads take point on this comment, since I never try to be dribble God. The dribble moves seem snappier and easier to pull off, but there's less variety of moves to pull off.

Interesting. I thought they were talking about more moves being available. But I can imagine they’re snappier. 21 was definitely more relaxed in movements.

Now all I gotta know is if MJ has been changed in likeness signatures / moves at all, as well as Kobe.

Oh, and if Rodman still has that horrific face scan.

Re: 2k22 Impressions

It's 2021. Madden doesn't run 4K 120fps. It's upscaled from 1440p.

And how is this a problem? I would take 1440p 120fps all day over 4k 60 with 30fps replays and transitions screens.

I'm scared to go online and build lol

We can switch back to US with no issues right?

Yeah I'm sticking with my defensive center build. I just can't stay away from that build and with the small playing sample as a center I'm loving the paint defense.

Since the RS is more responsive, I can see the Dribble Gods chaining together a nice set of moves then immediately pulling up on their defender. The shot that Damian Lillard made over PG during the playoffs is what coming to my mind.

I'm going to say this. Most console owners play on TVs (not monitors), and the market for 120 FPS TVs is "small". PS5 and XBSX are merely future proof for when 120 FPS TVs become more mainstream.

Some of the most stupid things that a person can get addicted to, lol. Playing with the sounds effects for green releases...enjoying myself.

I was going to say this but I figured no one would feel me.

Strangely enjoyable addition.

Indeed. Can’t stand the dribble god crap. Not even realistic at all.

To your senses how does the presentation and graphics / lighting look when compared back to back? Consensus appears to be about the same as 21. Which isn’t a bad thing. But I’m surprised it’s still pretty washed. Cleaning up the classic Bulls red jersey is a big win though.

right. i'm happy for the option. always happy for options. and 30+ perfect release sounds. maybe 35. plus an option for no perfect sound.


the world dont move to the beat of just 1 drum. i had to turn this off immediately. to immersion breaking for me. but, as i said, i love the option for those that like it.

Re: 2k22 Impressions

To those who are wondering about the icon underneath the player. You change it AND the color. Cute addition.

Do we still have to option to remove the icon all together? I played 2k21 almost primarily with the icon off.
