Weird glitch

I can’t attach a screenshot but there’s this strange glitch that impacts gameplay. At this point it’s pointless to fix in 2K23 but definitely needs to be fixed in 24. I don’t know if it’s in other parts of the game because I only use MyCareer lol. But there are at least three players who are put in games, but they’re invisible. There’s no character while they are on the floor. You can see the ball bouncing with the orange marking under them when they are on offense. When they are on defense the white circle under them partly appears if they are guarding you (so if they are guarding another player or standing in the paint there’s just a void where there should be a player). It impacts play because I’m throwing passes that are intercepted by people I don’t even know are there sometimes & it’s a lot harder to guard someone you can’t see. It’s happening with Max Christie, Jaden Hardy, and another player who’s name I can’t remember but the last name is Wesley. If you don’t have clearance to use their likeness, take them off. If you do and don’t have an image (which doesn’t make sense, you should AT least have one from college), make one up. Jonathan Kuminga’s character doesn’t look like him nor does Jaden Ivy…do to them what y’all did to these two and several others lol. But definitely fix it because it’s frustrating.

Could be better

The gameplay is okay. You have either pro or casual controls and pro gives you more control of what the character does but it’s still extremely hard to find a balance of movement with the left stick. Not sure what you could do to fix that because the movement is fine it’s just difficult to control the character and I find him going all over the place and don’t feel in control while on defense. There’s connection issues with the online matches in my player. I do hope that with future patches the connection can get better. Every match I played which was only about five last night had a connection issue. Only truly got to play two of the games from start to finish. I will say that the graphics look great for a mobile game and that the game feels like you picked up 2K for your console system besides the controls and matchmaking system having connection issues. It’s very solid to play if you play CPUs again defense is tough but playing on offense feels good and the pro controls really help for driving layups. Also they have good tutorials that explain how to play. Recommended if you haven’t already went through the tutorials. Overall I think there’s improvements that can happen here. Worth a download if you like playing basketball or basketball games in general.

Great game but need a few tweaks

First the game as most stated is perfect for a mobile device tho a few things I would address. One in career mode you should allow basic customization like being able to change who’s in your lineup with you on your team. As well as allocate the mins played by each player too. Also after the season you should be able to control what players stay and or be able to try and trade for other players during and after the season. Next right now there is a glitch where some players are invisible and you can’t see them. Only time you know they are there is when they have the ball and their name shows up under the invisible person. Otherwise a few tweaks in the response time when hitting shoot or pass etc and this game is it. Hoping you make the 2k24 arcade edition for the iPhone in sept too.

Good game but please add this

So when I go to manage roster you know how in nba 2k 22 console one you can add abilities like ankle breaker 99 or 5m but when I go to edit player in a all star team I can’t change his team or edit his skills so may you please fix this one thing and also my career build is to op like when I use my take over I throw it up from full court swish and even with out it I played with gsw for 4 years 3/4 years my team won the nba championship now that I play with Dallas I avg 40 points 90 percent in fgs and 87 percent in 3 point percentage and I won 2 nba champion ship and my team even went 75 and 7 so may you make it so you can also change the shot meter as well as add badges like ankle breaker 99 so you can play like one of those uncle drew videos on YT overall I suggest you should play the game. (You should fill the stadium up with more crowd so it’s not only like 50 people)

Great Game, Bad Controls, Laggy Online

So I’ve played many of the 2KXX Mobile games in the past and I will say that the controls have been slightly annoying. Don’t like how you have to click the right joystick to switch players on defense as often times it will register a swipe instead. Dribble moves seemed to have been limited and the dribble moves only work during specific animations. I remember previous versions that had a better usage of the dribble moves as well as had more dribble moves (such as being able to step back without taking a shot by pulling the dribble stick to the back-left or back-right. The intense-D also hasn’t been as good as I remember it but that also might just be a reflection of the player you are wielding. I’m not sure. I know the online multiplayer part of the game is new (at least to me) but it is pretty laggy and not a great experience. Otherwise, the game looks amazing and it’s the best video quality I have seen. It is still very fun to play and feels just like playing 2K on your phone which is what most people care about.

NBA2K23 Arcade Edition

This game is extremely impressive for the simple fact that it almost gives you the full NBA basketball simulation experience . For this game to be played on a phone or iPad I sometimes forget that I’m not playing a actual console, that’s how good this game is . I also like the improvements that were made compared to the 2K22 version such as this years version includes ( Commentary ) which is so important to have because it adds to the simulation experience . Also I like the new game modes as well as the ( All-Time Teams ) being included in this years game . You can also notice the improved overall gameplay in this years game compared to last year’s version . Moral of story , I really have no complaints because this game is very impressive for it to be (mobile) & played on phones as well as tablets . 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

THE GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME

Look, l have written almost like a hundred reviews on this game and in every single one I gave it five stars! This game is great, but sometimes I have seen in other reviews people say that they rage when they play this game but for me I would say no. For me sometimes I rage but otherwise I’m fine. I just want you 2k to make a other game like 2k mobile, l think that’s the name of it or something like that. I just think that would be cool. But I love this game I play it a lot and I made the hall of fame basketball in MyCareer! It’s really fun but then I stared playing where I was Michael Jordan, then that’s when I started raging because I was playing as the best basketball player ever, and yes that is a fact LeBron James fans!!! Then I just couldn’t play on MyCareer. Well that was my fault but the game is great! Please I can’t wait for NBA2k24! We’ll see ya!

Good but…

I think this game is amazing. But I really want you guys to add stuff like for example 08-09 Lakers like classics I think there called. Also we need a replay mode. Also if you guys do put in classics mode in this game or 2k24 arcade edition make it so you can trade those people. Because I know if you do current rosters you can and all time you can’t which makes sense, I want a classics roster too. Also I want to create a player for rosters, not in my career, but just in like the options menu because I don’t want to spend time grinding to make the perfect player I want. Also can you guys also make our mycareers overall not go to only 95. I want it to be a 99. Also I’ve said this before MAKE A 3PT AND DUNK CONTEST A MODE OR IN ASSOCIATION MODE. And also can you also get tattoos and more hair cuts for your player. Also can we in mycareer or association mode being able to change the teams jersey. That’s all that I want to have in either this game or the next one (2k24 Arcade edition) Please respond

Great game but buggy

This is probably one of the most realistic games i’ve ever seen for mobile. it also does a great job of making it so much like the console version of 2k, however there are some issues. These issues mainly happen in mycareer, the most prominent being that sometimes when you’re assingned to a player, if a cpu player runs by it’ll make that cpu guard the person that you were guarding and you’re supposed to guard the person they left, then you get penalized for “leaving your assignment” but you were with your player the whole time, it just randomly switched to someone across the court. There are also some issues with the camera in mycareer where it will only stay in one place and the only way to fix it is by closing the app. All in all great game but please fix these glitches, they are hindering progress of the player greatly by having to close the game mid match or have a great score and then go down by a letter grade because you “left your assignment”.

Have fun raging

Ok where to begin. First off, out of all the basketball games on mobile this is definitely the best one. However, if you don’t use a controller then I pray for your phone because you will most certainly want to throw it across the room. Press shoot while driving, press pass when you want to pass and it will be late to register and you will get blocked, go out of bounds, or turn it over every single time. The game modes are slimmed down (probably for good reason) but if the computer AI can run plays then why can’t I? Why can’t I choose who’s matching up against who? Oh and defense? Don’t even get me started on defense. The “defense” button you hold down to help stay on your man is useless. One pick and roll and your guy is screwed instantly switching and now a center is guarding the PG so good luck getting a stop. It’s fun when you appreciate having a console or the game on PC, but for somebody who doesn’t, god it is frustrating. There is just absolutely no freedom for play styles or people who want to play the game who love basketball for all of its glory. Just don’t expect that since you’re paying 5$ a month to play it on Apple’s Ponzi scheme of a subscription model that you’re gonna play a decent game. It’s borderline broken.
