    How did 2K fall so far from grace? Fan reviews are in

    NBA 2K celebrates 20 years of redefining what sports gaming can be, from best in class graphics & gameplay to groundbreaking game modes and an immersive open-world "Neighborhood." NBA 2K19 promises to push limits as it brings gaming one step closer to real-life basketball excitement and culture.


    Yikes. 2.6 fan/audience score out of 10. Mainly due to accusations of pay to win and insane grinding. Has 2K gotten too greedy?

    As long as 2k stays part of Take-Two nothing will ever change. Or in other words as their CEO said this year: "We havent monetarized the players enough".

      Online is poopoo right now. Not surprised one bit.

      Offline there's so much to love but it's being tainted by the bad taste in my mouth from Rec/Park. Spamming is the meta.

        When they do what they've done the last 2 days, what do people expect?

        Most of those reviews are just historic grudges no doubt, but the goodwill they'd built up with this years release disappeared when they changed the rules as soon as the game was out for everyone, then promised to put it back, then nerfed it again.

            That's one main area I don't get. Why have these server issues been going on for like 5 years? I think they could of moved to a completely new server or fixed by now?

              Congrats dude, really happy for you.

              They nerfed the xp across the board by about 30%, the community kicked off, zach promised to put it back as it was, but with an added boost for park players, gave the boost to park players but still nerfed xp for some of us.

                  i understand the frustration with the microtransactions.



                  but as an offline only player(i might jump online to play with friends occasionally but thats it) i realllllly dont care about how bad the microtransactions are. it effects me 0%.



                  so i just want people like me to know that they should not be discouraged by the poor user reviews if you mostly just stick to myleague and dont care about making your myplayer a 99 overall.

                    The thing is, it's been that way for a long time. 2k is the GOAT offline sports franchise and that's all that matters to me.

                      My strategy is as follows:

                      Make a created player..player lock him in myleague..play till I have 100K VC..THEN I play mycareer. Works nicely for me every year. No EFFIN WAY I'm playing a single game in Mycareer at 60 overall lol.

                      MyLeague is outstanding as usual.

                        i THINK some are secretly upset they have to play smarter to win a game. These are the cheese players who are complaining.

                        The grind is not nearly as bad as last year.

                          Fall from grace?

                            As a ProAM only guy, I'm just afraid to make a character. Maybe the grind is not as bad but I'm sure it still sucks. The whole shady XP thing definitely hurts. I might have a more unique viewpoint since I also play Pro Clubs on FIFA and their mode is 100000000000000000000x more user friendly (rare for an EA game) and it makes 2K so much more frustrating. In FIFA I can change positions, "badges", and height/weight, while 2K locks it all. It's just ridiculous and unfun. 2K has put so much effort into the mode then makes it intentionally less enjoyable.

                              Fan reviews on Metacritic are always ridiculous and silly.


                              People don't actually vote 1-10. They vote 1 to tank the score on purpose and they do it every year with 2k. It has nothing to do with the actual game and has everything to do with personal vendettas.

                              I wouldn't even pay attention to them if I were you and I definitely wouldn't take them seriously.
