Wayy better than 2k21

This was a major upgrade from 2k21. The graphics are good, you don’t have to green release to make a shot every time, and the badges actually feel like they work. Also the inclusion of the my court to practice shooting was perfect. There are a few things that could be fixed tho. First can you please add a way to save a game in mycareer that you are already playing like you had it in 2k20. It gets annoying when I have to stop playing a game then I come back and I have to start the game all over again because there wasn’t a way to save mid game. Also the game is unresponsive at times and it feels like there’s a delay in when I press the controls. That delay often times results in me getting a turnover (when I press pass and it doesn’t pass immediately) or me not shooting the ball at the exact moment I wanted. This last one is minor but I liked the commentators that you could hear during the game like in 2k20. Overall it was a good game but those are some things that could’ve really made it perfect.

Great Game!

I’m writing this review not to say the game is bad but it’s okay. There are some small things that could be fixed, such as: the fact that I have to use a joystick on defense. I think you should have it automatically staying on a defender you should just have the choice to steal and block. Another thing you should change is the computer is WAY to hard. Sometimes it’s good when I want to give myself a challenge but when I want to play a casual game like I usually want to, I can’t. Some great things about the game are the modes such as: Blacktop, I LOVE how I get to choose the players I get to play with. I think you should add the All-Time players in this Blacktop like you can do on 2k on console. Last but not least, The Association and Player Career Mode are AWESOME!!! But to sum up, I love this game and if your a sporty guy like me you should get it. But there are a few small things I would change in the game. Thank you for reading my review, and hope on getting your feedback soon

Good Game

Honestly I really enjoy the game. I would go as far to say I prefer it over console but in good conscious I don’t recommend it to anybody who is new to playing 2K because it lacks the immersion verses console: their no mycareer story, you can’t run plays, you can’t see the plays being called, my association when you play you can’t lock on to a certain player, on multiple occasions I wasn’t given my badge and had to grind for it again (defensively badges so that’s really annoying), there no commentary announcers, and passing is abysmal especially when I use my controller. But if you are like me and have been playing 2K a long time but are tired of them releasing the games unfinished, empty promises and VC hungry. With all that being said if you want just the basic game without the bells and whistles then I will definitely recommend it and getting VC is easier and fun, it’s easier to grind MYC and I’m honestly thinking of staying here playing 2K and not returning to console

Good but missing some key features

It’s a good mobile port but its missing some key features and has some bugs. For one, I need the ability to pass to specific players via an assigned button per teammate like the other games instead of always relying on the inconsistent “directional” passing. We also need the ability to run plays in game. A few bugs i have seen is where you run a certain layup and it gets blocked always from defenders that shouldn’t have been able to block a shot from behind on a 6’5 player. I have seen Too many complete stuffs of players like Anthony Davis on gimme layups that it needs adjusted. It can also get annoying sometimes when your teammates just cant seem to be capable of setting a decent pick. Lastly, the blatant misses despite a shot that should be in is annoying. If my character is a 95 rating in 3pters he should be shooting 20% from the 3pt line esp not on wide open shots and the shot timing on the layups is crazy inconsistent. How do I know what animation my character is going to perform and how slow he will do it? All in all, it is still fun and the my player works okay.

Sent my starting center to the g-league with no way to call him up

Some parts are very good. The graphics are nice, the players move fluidly, the difficulty isn’t super easy which I like, there’s an appropriate level for everyone. The gameplay and graphics have no business being this smooth on mobile. The association has made me mad several times. The CPU moved Daniel Gafford, the best center on my roster, to the g-league and I can’t get him back. He’s on a one year deal and won’t resign, probably because we sent him to the g-league. I hit a clutch buzzer beater with Beal to send the game to OT, and then lost in OT because the camera went to the My Career bench sideline view, and it didn’t change back for most of OT no matter what the camera setting was, so I was outscored 15-0 during that time. Online play isn’t worth trying, too laggy. I can’t extend players in season, scouting is just a long list of names not even sorter by position. You can’t run set plays, only pick and roll, not even a pick and pop option. The things they did do well they did really well, other parts little to no attempt was made. I’m mainly mad about Gafford, why would the CPU send the best center on the roster to the g-league instead of Isaiah Todd or other real life g-league players now stuck on my roster?

It’s great because it’s 2k. But it could use some changes.

Mobile 2k has always been a great way to pass time when you’re away from a console. However of all the Mobile 2k games produced this one is probably my least favorite for a couple reasons. The main reason is that games do not save, so you have to sit through an entire game. If you end up needing to go do something, you lose the entire game. This is especially frustrating because if you exit the game for more than 15 seconds it restarts the app. My second complaint would be MyPlayer. This feature is great and one of the best ways to play on Mobile. However, the way the statistics have been formulated and how to u can actually spend VC makes it very difficult to earn stats such as strength, speed, quickness, and your vertical. I don’t mind those as much because it makes the game slightly more difficult and takes longer to progress. What I do have an issue with is that stamina/Endurance receive no boost. There’s not even the Gatorade Massive Minutes badge. This becomes frustrating because there is also no way to edit the amount of minutes you are playing in a game. So after a period of time your myplayer is absolutely drained and there’s nothing you can do about it. It’s frustrating and absurd logic.

To the devs: Great Game But..

There are a few things that come to mind that I know many other players as well as myself would like to see added to the game. One is that there should be a option to purchase Vc for those that don’t want to grind out mycareer or be able to obtain it faster by adding in game challenges that might even make the games (mycareer) a lot more fun also. A big one is being able to get badges faster. The process takes way too long..I could see if we wanted to be competitive in park or a game mode like that but since we are playing by ourselves it should be a lot easier to upgrade our players and see how good they would be maxed out (stats/badges). I’m not saying take out the grind entirely, but it shouldn’t be as hard as it is right now to get one badege. To get all the badges we would have to play generously maybe 2 or more seasons in our mycareer. I know this 2K22 arcade but it doesn’t have to be exactly like the console version. It might be a change for the better in the mobile 2k community.

Okay game

The reason I left this review is because it has some good qualities and some bad. First good one is the graphics are good and it has a a lot of good game modes (my career, black top, etc.) also in addiction mode (season mode) you can draft your own players and make your own decisions. The only problems I have with it is the game play and shoot. Side note I’m pretty sure I would have less issues if I used a controller but I don’t want to do that every time I play. It is over all a little choppy and kind of hard. I personally don’t like the movement and having to use the joystick to stay on the defender (I would rather have a button like in2k21) along with that the computer is actually hard (good and bad) it is good because it gives me a challenge but bad if I want to play an easy causal game. Finally the shoooting. I don’t like it. I feel like have to be either completely open or to green every shot. It feels like none of my shots are going in no matter what I do. Along with that layups are kind of hard to do (might just be me)Thank you for reading my review and this is all my opinion so try reading other reviews to make a final decision

Very Unrealistic Difficulty Levels

On Apple TV, playing against the computer is way too easy on Rookie level and any level higher than Rookie is way too hard. On difficulty levels higher than Rookie even the worst teams in the league are way too competitive, shoot way too high shot percentages and play smothering defense. Not enough variation in the difficulty. 5 difficulty levels that go from too easy to too hard and not enough in between. Increasing the difficulty also decreases the performance of your team. U miss too many shots that you normally make. Very poor design. Changes in difficulty levels should only affect your opponent, not your team. Ruins the one player experience. Probably great playing against someone else but playing against the computer isn’t fun due to the unrealistic and unbalanced difficulty levels. One player mode favors the computer way too much in every difficulty level other than Rookie. Fast breaks, drives to the basket, dunks, wide open shots, defensive breakdowns, all favor the computer unless you’re playing on Rookie level. VERY UNREALISTIC!

Best NBA 2K Mobile Game Yet

Graphics are amazing, and the gameplay is really good. The menus are completely revamped and look awesome. The Association has more features than ever before, and is personally my favorite mode in the whole game. Overall, this is the best NBA 2K Mobile game I’ve ever played, and it’s obvious that the developers really spent time on it. However, one change that they could make is to shorten the free agent and draft prospect lists. I feel like I’ve missed out on multiple top free agents and prospects just because I couldn’t find them on the list of hundreds of players. Instead, there should be a list with the the best free agents and top draft prospects, so you can know all the big names that you can sign. Additionally, I think there should be an option to sort the player lists by ratings. For example, if I want to find the best mid range shooters in a free agent class, I could sort the list of free agents so all the best mid range shooters would be at the top. Please consider these two suggestions!
