NBA 2K23 Impressions Thread (XBOX SERIES S/X & PS5)

Damn. I don't want them to change anything but the green or bust is killing my offline experience.

I don't like real player% but ps5 remote play lag with steam deck isn't giving me any other option.


Also cpu offense around the basket is annoying. It's user error but they are masters of the animation game.

Shooting anything outside the paint is WAY underpowered and driving dunks and layups are far too OP, but other than that it's really fun. Absolutely ridiculous that I'm seeing guys like Larry Bird go 1-13 shooting constantly, and I find myself (and the AI for the most part) getting 99% of points from right under the rim. At least the balancing is near perfect for AI/User, so the game is still decent fun. Can't even begin to complain about anything else. If they slightly adjust the game to favor shooting just a little bit more than it is now and to make paint defense a tad better, this is a top 3 basketball game of all time.

Do you use Chiaki to remote play? Everthing i read said it works awesome and way better than legit remote play but it sure hasnt been awesome for me so far. Id love to enjoy some Eras on my deck but i havent been able to yet.

Just had an ingame injury happen to one of the 83 bucks(cant remember his name) after halftime they talked about the injury and the guy has a collapsed lung. Yikers.

Yes Im using Chiaki but this is my first game that takes precision. Its been rough as there is just a slight lag/stutter. This doesnt effect the 99% of other games I play.

I have the releases of the teams I use down but cant consistently hit anything on the deck. Previous games wouldve been fine with slightly early/late but not 2k23.

So far I’m loving everything about this game. The gameplay, animations, presentation, graphics, Jordan Challenge, MyNBA Eras, etc- I’m thoroughly impressed and grateful. This is coming from an offline player who doesn’t touch Park or MyCareer btw. I can say that 2K definitely delivered this year, especially for those of us who love MyNBA and retro rosters . And to think IGN gave this game a 6/10 smh

Same with me. Ignore IGN and other media outlets completely. People who don't know sh** about basketball review those games. The game is 9-9,5 for us fellow NBA 2k gamers
