Re: which platform should i get this game on ??
The P.C if online isn't a worry. The games get the patches the pretty much the same time.. steam usually auto updates for you.
For editing and modding at all... the p.c is the only way to go.
One more thing the spec requirements were posted on Operation Sports the other day check to see if you can run the minimum and maximum.
Of course you would want the maximum to get the highest graphics if you can run it at Max then go with the PC for sure.
Got the spec requirements for you.
MINIMUM:
OS: Windows 7×64 / Windows 8.1×64 / Windows 10×64

i got the spec easy so that's ok. yeah i've never been bothered about online and when i have i have found the game very unresponsive so always stayed away. always been into franchise mode and love the simworld guy's rosters. hoping that if i do go down the pc route there will be similar rosters availableComment

You have many roster sites nlsc, moddingway, and great guys here on the forums!
Are you going to be playing in 4k??? I got a 4k TV a Hisense.. great response time, I personally believe this 50 inch 4k is the best price.. on sale at best buy $450.. I got it for $419... but in my opinion.. best overall for the price.
Not sure what video card you have, I have the Radeon r9 290x so I needed to buy a display port 2.1 adaptor, which then makes it hdmi 4:4:4 4k 60 FPS.. (you might not need this if you have a slightly higher video card.
Windows 10 does an amazing job when you go super high resolution to scale the icons to a very good size!
Not sure if links are allowed... but this is the TV I use as a Monitor and TV..
Hope you love the game, as I think I will

If you don't play online and have a decent PC, then it's a no brainer for me. Go PC.Comment

Re: which platform should i get this game on ??
I think we were often delayed by a day or two to be honest. That's my memory of it anyway. But I think 2K have talked about having less patches this year, because more things can be fixed via the server method that they use to update rosters regularly.Comment

Re: which platform should i get this game on ??
I do believe the patches are almost identical time wise... but they usually don't even tell PC gamers it's out OR what the patch notes are, because the game is identical... they usually announce xbox/ps4 patch.. then at then at the bottom.. they mention.. "pc also" lol.
I know 2K promised less patches, but how can they predict.. how many will be needed.. also I don't care how many patches are released.. I just don't want the patches to break.. things that were working fine before the patch!
I personally think they should work on 2 sets of patches separately ones for online and offline.. the park when patched I've seen people livid .. they changed the shot release.. and offline users ,love it...
My career/Myleague/Franchise should have separate patches... online like MY park if the people are happy with it.. don't make a patch universal.. fix the section that's broken.
I don't think 2K realizes there's 2 sets of players, people who only play mypark/my team... and the other set players career/league/franchise... these are 2 totally separate game play types, which 2k needs to understand.
I don't play my park/myteam.. but I see how passionate and how much fun the guys who do love it... they deserve the best patch that needs fixing on THEIR end.

Re: which platform should i get this game on ??
I would say get it on PC, but I'm just looking for players to play with on PC.
I'll be honest, I've always been a console player. However, I built my first PC in 2013. Obviously, I wanted an all-in-one device. When I found out that I could play 2k (full version) on PC, 2k15 was a simple choice. It started of okay, but then we came across hackers. At first, it was just a few people, so they were easy to avoid. I got to 2k16 and now there are closet hackers mixed in as well. Even, the groups that were made to avoid hackers had hackers in them. I went back to PS4 and then the XBOX One. It is easier to find people to play with on console, but it's often filled with kids. This is going to be the norm, and I understand it. It can be annoying. Plus, most people have their set groups, so it takes time to find that right group of people to play with on console.
This already getting too long, so I'll try to wrap it up. The crowd on PC is small, and small communities seem to be much more enjoyable. The game runs better, in my opinion. Also, on the PC I explored the game more. I took time to learn moves and and the pace.
I hope this helps. I'll be back on the PC this year. Hopefully, there will be a honest community of players

Is there any way to avoid the hackers? Not really bothered about the park but wouldn't mind playing like minded 'sim' players one on one .

I'm getting it for PC for the first time. I have a 21:9 monitor and I wanted to see how it would look with a wider field of view and also to see what its like with a higher frame rate. Excited to try it out in a new way.
Just wondering, some of you guys are talking about mods, what are some popuular ones you guys used in the past?Comment

Re: which platform should i get this game on ??
Since they changed the Engine Modding isn't what it used to be. Mostly you can edit a few Faces and Arenas but its not what 2K14 and prior was. I still remember the URB which had Rosters and Draftclasses for every Year from like 1980-2014 so you could start in like 1980 and always use the right Draftclass and replay History.Comment
