        On the online casino that makes them money and will die in two years: "Here's everything new that your kids will drain your wallet for!"

        On MyNBA, which will last forever but doesn't make money now: "More to come in September!"

        Priorities.

          OFFENSE - Breaking down defenders off the dribble with new signature moves and combos, precision jump shooting, dunking in traffic, and pulling off alley-oops have all become more skill-based. Basketball IQ and stick skills play an even bigger role in separating top offensive players.
          Yeah sure...skill based....read that before...

          DEFENSE - A completely revamped shot contest and blocking system highlight an arsenal of new defensive tools at your disposal. Playing suffocating defense on the perimeter and in the paint has never felt more rewarding, giving elite defenders the ability to truly change the outcome of the game.
          lol...again...this game favors heavily on offense since I can remember. Whenever defense gets a boost Twitter cries and 2k just caters to them. pfft...

            As always, a lot of it sounds good in theory, but I have to see it to believe it and even then, there's a good chance some of this basically gets patched out of the game a month or two after release.

            I'm still buying and will play the **** out of it though lol

              MATCHMAKING OPTIONS IN THE CITY [PS5/XBS] - The City opens up new and quicker alternatives to get into online hoops. MyPLAYERs can enter select matchmaking buildings to be placed into immediate competition. Matchmaking sessions will be available for a number of game types and will contribute to all MyPLAYER progress.
              Thank you! Wow cant believe they finally added this outside of The Rec/Events (it seems)

              I still need to see what they mean by "options" and "matchmaking buildings" but good to hear that some form of quickly getting into games.

              I just hope its not still limited to events or limited hours. NBA2K is notorious for monkey paw wishes

              Still not pre-ordering though. Been burned too many times by the hype cycle

                  When were they going to record this and put it in in the past year?

                  Just cross their fingers and hope NBA teams added in fans by the playoffs? Then only include half the teams?

                  Granted, they could have added in in years past, but this was not going to be the year it finally made it in considering how the NBA season went in regards to fans in attendance, thus there being no chance they could have recorded audio. So by expecting it you were just setting yourself up for disappointment.

                    This is literally the only thing I am interested in. If this saves me from standing on a spot or standing in a lobby on a fake phone for 10 minutes then I'm all for it.

                        I like that they're going away from cinematic story in MyCareer. I felt in a full pandemic development cycle, it wouldn't have made much sense anyway. I didn't bother with the City much this past year besides the training center. The big thing is that there is stuff to do offline outside of playing games.

                        I really hope they went away from starting at 60 OVR. It's all about trying to get people to buy VC just to be competitive in the online modes. I don't have any desire to buy VC.

                          These 2k generalizations are beyond old. They say the same thing every year then patch it out or never add it in the 1st place.

                          The rosters have been a copy and paste job since 2k14 with the same mistakes, tendency issues, and incorrect badges. The next gen online experience is by far the highest level of cheese and exploits I've ever seen. Offline it takes forever to get a satisfying MyNBA going because u have to tweak rosters and sliders nonstop to fix all of the inaccuracies. Overall this game has become more of a chore than a fun basketball experience.

                          2k22 will be the last ride for me, only because it SHOULD be a true next gen experience unlike 2k21 which felt like a training exercise for the devs. Done waiting for things that will never come as this game goes further down that toxic community hole. Sorry guys...rant over

                            Seemed like a very short, general breakdown of features with more in-depth information later.

                            It was very ho-hum and hopefully they have something more enticing (for folks on the fence or the disenchanted) in a few weeks.

                            I'm just looking for improvement/refinements to offensive controls, a more rewarding/deeper post game (what's that?), continued improvement with the physics engine and the defensive AI being competent.

                              Yes and sounds similar to things we've heard in the past however we all know the gameplay blogs are where we get the real details. Not expecting much information from 2 two sentence overviews.
