As an offline player only, is NBA 2K18 a fairly substantial upgrade over 2K17 in terms of gameplay, MyGM, and MyLeague mode?
Currently on sale for $19.99

A lot would depend on the roster you are going to use. If you are using the 2k default rosters then not really a huge upgrade. After saying that $19.99 is a good deal.NBA 2k18 Roster:

I think you would be better off saving these 20 bucks for the 2k19 which comes out in 2 and a half monthsComment

for 19.99 or even 29.99, it's a can't miss. It's very fun, I think.
Haven't run into any big glitches yet, either. Like I said in another thread, new sliders are always good. Pass speed is a huge slider as is min-max speed.
Nah, get 18 and wait until 19 is 19.99, too. haha.

I am an offline player only. I no longer have NBA 2k17 installed.
All I will say is that 2k18 comes with its own share of problems. The latest patch somewhat helps but the following lingering issues are still present. All of the following are still present today and is what killed the game for me. I still play the game once in a while, but it's not enjoyable because of all the following.

A great post, as many problems as the 2k18 has, I agree that the defense overall is the biggest and the most impactful one. I just think defense needs to be reworked, I don't know why but the last 2 versions of the game have had big problems with defense. IN 2k17 it was a pick and roll defense, I don't really remember how good the transition defense was and 2k18 it just a mess on that side of the court.
2k18 is promising, but it just feels like it needs much more work, many things need to be polished, feels unfinished etc.
I recently reinstalled 2k14 on my PS4 and it really feels good, 2k18 has a lot more options because it simply is a newer game, but man 2k14 gameplay feels better to me, just my opinion tho.
I wish 2k really worked on polishing things from 2k18 and making 2k19 a solid game but that unfortunately doesn't sell games, we will see some new stuff to create the hype but what is 2k19 going to look like, I am really curious to see.Comment

I think 18 plays a lot better than 17 specially offline. However for me, 17 is the worst 2k game they made this gen.
But back to 18. I have some customized sliders and imo that is the key for this game and the amount of depth 18 has in insanely good and it's a very smooth game of bball. Defensively it was terrible at launch but was tweaked with multiple patches and now solid. Today I had an awesome game between the 86 Bulls and the 2013 Miami Heat and it was very exciting and realistic matchup. Very realistic stats. The old bulls pushed the heat around physically with guys like Oakley and Woolridge and of course Jordan. But LeBron was too much for the slower Bulls. 18 seems to play a little slower too. And I like that.
18 is a great offline game no doubt. However , for this gen my vote goes to NBA 2k16

Gameplay: HUGE upgrade. Easily the best in the series imo. I've put over 200 hours into this game (which is a lot for a game for me) and that's easily double what I've put into the last few iterations of 2k
MyGM: Has a story mode now. Can't speak to how good it is as I've never touched it
MyLeague: Sort of close to the same as 2k17, with some nice upgrades
My advice:
Get the game if you don't plan on getting 2k19 at launch in 2.5 months.
Get the game if you plan on throwing a ton of hours at it between now and 2k19.
Don't get it if you are planning on getting 2k19 at launch.
If I was in your shoes and didn't have the game already? I'd grab it because I'm not planning on getting 2k19 at launch this year."Baseball is the coolest sport because, at any moment, the catcher can stop the game and go tell the pitcher a secret" - Rob FeeComment

I’m playing on PC. I began to hate 2K on console, but the modding on PC has brought me back. I feel like I’m already playing 2K19. For the first time ever I’m not even looking forward to the “prelude” or 12am releases. I’ll likely pick up 2k19 a couple months after release. Maybe later. They’d have to introduce some new jaw dropping gameplay feature that I can’t miss out on for me to get it at release (which is unlikely).
I say get the game while on sale. Especially on PC. There’s a dedicated modding community that has and will be providing a huge lifeline to the game for a few more months.
