1st year I ever stopped playing NBA2k, just sick of all the micro transactions, patching builds to make you spend $$$ for a new build. Their GREED is going to be their downfall. Or at least I hope
Patching builds and telling you “tough sh*t” is so crazy to me. They should allow you to make small changes every once in a while if they are going to do that.
The fact 75% of their money comes from Micro Transactions is exactly why they need to make the game free to play. Imagine how much more money they would make if every gamer had access to their product.

2k became trash when they created the my player and Park! None of that stuff is real basketball they put to much detail into those parts of the game and not the real NBA part of the game. Make it make sense! I don't get it.
@@roybratton7846 the community keep on asking to make the game more realistic and telling them the downfall on what they need to fix and what they thought they need to fix. At this point it’s the community and the influencer fault that made these changes over the years
In all honesty I’ve been playing 2k for so long so just seeing an noticing all this is sad, and I’m not even boycotting the game I literally stopped playing cuz it’s really just boring now,I feel like I’m forcing myself to just play this game
Yh bro soo true back in some previous 2ks 20,19,17,16 and all the good 1s I could literally play the game all day offline or online my career games or park games n even my team but now everything on 2k is just soo boring..u play like 2-4 games and u instantly get bored and if u are a basketball lover you would have to watch some nba games or play ball with ur friends to miss the game u get on it and get bored in just an hour smh
How the hell people spend $250 on a game?? People complain about +$10 from $60 to $70 is a lot but spend $100+ on microtransaction that's mostly cosmetic in most games. NBA 2K if you make a build that you have fun with and can win games, you don't need to spend money at all. I hate that you need to spend money to make multiple builds because people can't just play this game all the time. I have 4 builds, I don't even play with 2 of them anymore. If only I could get 75% of the VC back from those builds I can make a new good one. It's so stupid. 2K makes me wish I didn't like basketball. I have been playing basketball since 2003.
Literally... I caught myself about to download live just to play something other than 2k. I love basketball but 2k does not feel like basketball anymore
@@biggbariblastem if you were going to play live just play 2K offline. It's a good game. Download realistic sliders and have fun. Online basketball makes so much sense but 2K made it the worst sports game, even fifa Madden feels like God send I remember when 2K used to say new commentary team with 1000s of lines added, thousands of new animations added, foot planting etc. Now, it's new city environment.... Where the hell in marketing it says about gameplay... Even fifa shows their new animations system, live crowds etc.
@@vikaskumarpatel5017 You are absolutely right but it defeats the purpose of the game which is to go to the park and hoop with your friends virtually. But yeah it’s not gameplay based anymore. It’s literally about everything other than game play
the most fun i ever had playing 2k was 2k11 crew mode, and that was before VC existed... you had to grind to build your player, and everyone was on an equal playing field.
A new bball gaming platform will emerge. It’s cyclical. Likely start off more innovative with better gameplay and than not to many years after they get official players likeness, the game will get stagnant
@@biggbariblastem you definitely can, rockstar did a move where they locked a majority of the cars you could buy behind a paywall where you'd have to subscribe to GTA+ and said that the purpose of it was to "streamline the game." That gaming company is just greedy bro, they'll do what they can to increase their pockets while doing nothing of decent value
I’m glad you spoke on the lighting , I stay in theatre cause 1 it’s easier to get a game , less headache and 2 park is insufferable for things like crazy looking courts and lighting. Why am I struggle to see my players release or the game ball cause shadows casted . It’s ridiculous lmao
I love basketball and somehow 2k thinks just because they are the only game I have to participate and buy into it. I’m done. No more money for this shit dev company and everyone who complains and buys it anyway needs to reevaluate your goals. If you want change, stop accepting non change. We only accept it because we love basketball.
Sameeeee. Like dude, I just got the game, and I’m already dunking as D Rose, doing posters as KD, and spamming that thunder team. Hell, I even dropped 100+ points with Gerald Green, it was crazy. But at least it worked on PS5.
Gotta treat 2k like an average game. Buy it, get your build to 99 then stop paying for VC completely. Makes the game feel more fun and 1000% less stressful. I haven’t bought VC other than when I had to create my builds and that saves me from giving up this game entirely
After paying $70 for the game you SHOULDNT be paying for anything unless it’s strictly cosmetic..That’s what y’all fail to realize.Imagine spending 2 million dollars on a Bugatti,but before you can drive it off the lot you gotta spend $500,000 more to purchase the key to it….Thats basically what y’all are doing.
The worst part is not that we can buy vc and it not be ours, the real problem here is they are trying to force us to sighn a TOS and if we don't we can't play a game we already paid 150 for, so we paid for a game we can't even own if we don't forcefully sign a bs tos , I'm a grown man I can just imagine 2k telling a child they can't play a game them or there parents paid for unless they sighn a tos that has got to be illegal
Worst thing that has ever happened to me in gaming was when i noticed that I lost my 2k22 mycareer player when they took the servers down last month. I had a ton of VC. Played 2 full seasons on HOF and 12 minute quarters. Was probably my fave game to play tbh and now I don't even want a 2k game even downloaded to my system. I'm out forever. Been around since the first 2k. Oh well
This always happens when a sports game has no competition. The same thing happened with Madden. That’s why it was bad for the consumer when NBA live was done, there is no competition to force improvement. With that said bring back NBA and NFL Street.
I kind of feel the same way you feel about the game don't love the game don't hate the game but where we disagree is 2K 23 was a way better game than 24, just head and shoulders above. I consistently had fun playing 2K 23. 2K 24 just leaves me with an annoyed feeling.
I wish 2k and ea could make nba street, fifa street, nfl street games. Like some alternate sports games. Something else we can play, I’m so happy a ncaa game is coming out this year.
Not 2k making a street game bc its going to be some bs just like the original 2k basketball games and I know it's going to have some bs in it bc of them
i’ve been a devoted NBA2K player since 2016.. and i only purchased my console so i could play 2K with friends and now 8 years later this game is so sad and so bad it makes me consider wanting to sell my console and give up on video games in general.
Live controlled nba games young blood. Half of the players on 2k NEED to be on live , but they migrated over to 2k n ruined it . This game was for REAL SIM BASKETBALL . Now its arcade
It just makes zero sense how they leave certain stuff for old gen like mycourts but then give us stuff that no one asked for, and it doesn’t even work half of the time you try to use it
I love the fact you brought up Palworld vs Pokémon cause yeah 2K has nba licensing but if we like playing park , rec , proam, etc. with created players what’s stopping a company from giving us that without the nba behind it. I make builds go straight to the rec , I don’t need to play MyCareer and I don’t need to do my MyNba rebuilds that I like if there was a basketball game that I could create a player and load up with the homies and get some runs in. 2K holds NBA hostage but they can’t stop a basketball game being better
Going into rec without any badges or hot spots is wild😭 my career is needed, but it could be implemented in a street ball style to avoid the issues from 2k. Maybe a street career type of mode🤷🏽♂️
@@itz_Compz why can’t you have badges ? Or play in Drew Lew or other summer leagues to get your guy up. Badges don’t gotta be called badges just call them abilities. And tbh a game where actual ratings are king over badges don’t sound bad to me
I reckon they must have contracts and stuff going behind the scenes to be able to keep the monopoly on basketball games. Google why NBA live shut down it’s because 2k simply had more money behind the game so the gameplay was better and it wasn’t worth getting it over 2k. Keep in mind Nba live was made by EA it’s sus because if EA really wanted to they have the money to compete with 2k easily. Either way no smaller studio could realistically create a game with enough people playing to compete with 2k
I’m so glad I stopped playing 2K back when 2K13 dropped. My younger brother play 2K religiously and buy every yearly game. Imma send him this video to detur him from buying future 2K games 🤞
I wish they would at least make it if you make a player and delete the player you get the Vc back as long as you haven’t made it to the rebirth level. So if you spend vc to get to 80 then you feel you messed up you can get that vc back to use on another build up to either 3 builds or rebirth
I haven’t played any sports games since 2010. I’m strictly single player games now. Had a dream of a Basketball game with a strong story mode a kin to Tony Hawk Underground. Start off in a city playing 3 on 3. Build your team RPG stats elements, reach 5 on 5, then play to make it to pro. BUT NAH LETS CRANK THESE MICROTRANASS GAMES.
2K making EA look like a amazing company. MLB The Show players make it sound like its a bad game. They have not seen what 2K does. MLB The Show in my opinion has the least amount of need to spend money on microtransaction. I have made a team in that in 5 hours that can compete with god squads. In 20 hours, I had almost all great cards except the collection rewards because I played the game in September.
I literally said no to 2K this year with the Battle Pass and the Badge Regression they introduced, the game was already bad enough with the micro transactions but that was just so GREEDY. Not to mention their long standing latency issues that literally makes playing online inconsistent where depending on the latency lag your consistent shot would stop falling at no fault of the players.
When they apply a new patch that effects your players ability you should definitely get the option to remake and what ever badge level you had it stays the same
This might be my last 2K. I didn't buy 2K22 because I was annoyed by 2Ks microtransactions requirement. Not everyone has infinite time to grind. NBA 2K22 was the first basketball I didn't buy since NBA Live 2003. That's how bad 2K has become. It's not even about the gameplay. Companies release quality of life improvements for their game after the game release and few patches. 2K releases the game makes sure that no one should enjoy it until they spend hundreds, make it as hard for them. You put 86 ball handle instead of 87, make a completely new build now.
I stopped playing 2K back with 20 once I got some sense. Year over year VC prices just kept going up, and “grinding” turned into an impossible task. I don’t how people can still support this, you gotta drop $50 just to get your player started
You mean college football made by EA? Ea make 2k look good they are just as bad with micro transactions and all there sports games have “scripts” or DDA
This is honestly my last 2k for a while, I'm not going to sign that new TOS so ill be done after this month. I got into JRPG games last year and with college football coming back i have no need to try to have fun playing this game.
I used to play 2k as a kid with my dad and ended up getting 2k19 when it was new to try to get some nostalgia out of it and really enjoyed the myCareer. Then they killed the service so you just lose it all completely. Never bought another one since then and I seem to have made a good decision lol
I played this 2k all season one and a lil of season 2 but season 3 is where I quit and I’m never buying another 2k again until they change their mindset towards this game.
2k is scam like that, i could play 1000 games and still not have enough VC to get 1 guy to a 90 overall.. thats insane, this game now forces you to do microtransactions
@@chadwellington2524 yeah its so sad because even like 2k20 you could get a 90+ off of one season of mycareer now you need to spend at minimum 50$ extra
I deleted before thanksgiving. Madden surprisingly go me hooked again on ultimate team again after years of just skipping out on it til the end of the year. I loved when they had hella challenges to earn stuff, but they cut back on it hard so I’m left bored
Haven’t played 2k since 2k17. Shit used to be so addicting, honestly sad to see how much sports games in general have fallen off in the past 5 years. The 2k14-17 run was legendary for me
I haven't put $$ into a 2k game since like 2018.... literally just play franchise with a few friends or online play now team up just to scratch that bball itch. Much happier.
yall need to actually thank 2k like legit we have been complaining about the cost of builds with vc for a long time and now that they have specifically said basically so what theres nothing you can do about it and are getting sued this is opening the lid on all the companys that thrive of micro transactions alot of things are going to change and new companys and older ones that was pushed out due to not going down the micro transaction route are waiting and ready to pounce on a newer refreshed gaming market in the coming years for once im actually hopefull
I remember before the patch I was making half court shots with my character like it was nothing when he was hot now when I play it I can’t knock down a half court shot for nothing regular he on the Knicks btw
Can we all agree to not get 2k25 or any other future 2K until they make a proper game?
They gon buy 2K every year no matter what.
It's dead bruh the reason 2k is the way it is. Is because they know people will still buy the game
They shut down the servers of older 2ks so you buy and spend more money on the newer 2ks

They will not go down until there's a competitor. Even an NBA Street game may make 2K sweat with all the revenue they get from park players.

I love the fact you brought up Palworld vs Pokémon cause yeah 2K has nba licensing but if we like playing park , rec , proam, etc. with created players what’s stopping a company from giving us that without the nba behind it. I make builds go straight to the rec , I don’t need to play MyCareer and I don’t need to do my MyNba rebuilds that I like if there was a basketball game that I could create a player and load up with the homies and get some runs in. 2K holds NBA hostage but they can’t stop a basketball game being better
Going into rec without any badges or hot spots is wild😭 my career is needed, but it could be implemented in a street ball style to avoid the issues from 2k. Maybe a street career type of mode🤷🏽♂️
@@itz_Compz why can’t you have badges ? Or play in Drew Lew or other summer leagues to get your guy up. Badges don’t gotta be called badges just call them abilities. And tbh a game where actual ratings are king over badges don’t sound bad to me
U the bum 70 ovr that be tryna run with hof 99’s foh
@@judiin all my builds are 97 + I’ve made 13 builds this year and put at least $60 in all of them so you couldn’t be more wrong bum
I reckon they must have contracts and stuff going behind the scenes to be able to keep the monopoly on basketball games. Google why NBA live shut down it’s because 2k simply had more money behind the game so the gameplay was better and it wasn’t worth getting it over 2k. Keep in mind Nba live was made by EA it’s sus because if EA really wanted to they have the money to compete with 2k easily. Either way no smaller studio could realistically create a game with enough people playing to compete with 2k
Haven’t played 2k in a month. There are so many games out here to only play 1
I’m so glad I stopped playing 2K back when 2K13 dropped. My younger brother play 2K religiously and buy every yearly game. Imma send him this video to detur him from buying future 2K games 🤞
2k should just release every 2 years no cap tired of the changes etc all the bull shit just take ya time make the game right.
I wish they would at least make it if you make a player and delete the player you get the Vc back as long as you haven’t made it to the rebirth level. So if you spend vc to get to 80 then you feel you messed up you can get that vc back to use on another build up to either 3 builds or rebirth
2k will continue yo go down, 24 is unfortunately the last 2k I will ever play
I official retired
2k an EA need to experience a Massive L to humble they selves frfr they been lacking this decade
Bro nobody is picking 2k over gta6 trust e
I haven’t played any sports games since 2010. I’m strictly single player games now.
Had a dream of a Basketball game with a strong story mode a kin to Tony Hawk Underground. Start off in a city playing 3 on 3. Build your team RPG stats elements, reach 5 on 5, then play to make it to pro. BUT NAH LETS CRANK THESE MICROTRANASS GAMES.
2k needs a reality check 3/10 there’s really no passion rn when it comes to 2k
Stopped playing around Christmas time, started playing Fortnite again and its way more fun.
Yea that’s why I moved to madden for a while
2K making EA look like a amazing company.
MLB The Show players make it sound like its a bad game. They have not seen what 2K does. MLB The Show in my opinion has the least amount of need to spend money on microtransaction. I have made a team in that in 5 hours that can compete with god squads. In 20 hours, I had almost all great cards except the collection rewards because I played the game in September.
@@vikaskumarpatel5017 that sad part both of the companies are crooks to me but I jus make content so I make my money back
Madden24 sucks.
@@tooreal2lie to be honest with u u right really no difference lol
They gotta get back to the fundamentals of what made 2k 2k, SIMULATION BASKETBALL
I wish as a community we just moved on from this company... But that'll never happen unfortunately
Damn I miss 2k 16 , 17 , and 19💔💔💔💯
I literally said no to 2K this year with the Battle Pass and the Badge Regression they introduced, the game was already bad enough with the micro transactions but that was just so GREEDY. Not to mention their long standing latency issues that literally makes playing online inconsistent where depending on the latency lag your consistent shot would stop falling at no fault of the players.
When they apply a new patch that effects your players ability you should definitely get the option to remake and what ever badge level you had it stays the same
Glad I ain’t buy 2k23 and 24
This might be my last 2K. I didn't buy 2K22 because I was annoyed by 2Ks microtransactions requirement. Not everyone has infinite time to grind. NBA 2K22 was the first basketball I didn't buy since NBA Live 2003. That's how bad 2K has become. It's not even about the gameplay.
Companies release quality of life improvements for their game after the game release and few patches. 2K releases the game makes sure that no one should enjoy it until they spend hundreds, make it as hard for them. You put 86 ball handle instead of 87, make a completely new build now.
What's sad is that, there is no other NBA game... And most NBA fans want to play an NBA game.
On the 27th we all need to do a protest and no1 gets on 2k for 3days
Mane f*** that game on my soul Ian buy tht 💩 and seeing this video is funny asf 😂😂😂
I stopped playing 2K back with 20 once I got some sense. Year over year VC prices just kept going up, and “grinding” turned into an impossible task. I don’t how people can still support this, you gotta drop $50 just to get your player started
Ain’t no one gonna play 2k25 with the return of college football, also gta 6 and the rumored new black ops game. Gonna be a great year!
You mean college football made by EA? Ea make 2k look good they are just as bad with micro transactions and all there sports games have “scripts” or DDA
start the movement 💯
best 2k vid so farrrrr
Bro what?? 😂😂 spending less money on a shit game rather than no money is not “taking a stand”
Last 2k I played was 22 😭 yall gotta stop letting these games bend yall over like this 💀
2k24 is a generous 5/10 but if I’m brutally honest then it’s 3.5/10
Great point about the microtransactions. Just spending less is effective.
This is honestly my last 2k for a while, I'm not going to sign that new TOS so ill be done after this month. I got into JRPG games last year and with college football coming back i have no need to try to have fun playing this game.
Agreed. We should ALL say fuck 2k like fuck. Theres too many braindead kids thatll play tho fr
I used to play 2k as a kid with my dad and ended up getting 2k19 when it was new to try to get some nostalgia out of it and really enjoyed the myCareer. Then they killed the service so you just lose it all completely. Never bought another one since then and I seem to have made a good decision lol
T2- we hate our consumers, but we know they’ll buy from us anyways
I played this 2k all season one and a lil of season 2 but season 3 is where I quit and I’m never buying another 2k again until they change their mindset towards this game.
They game going for $20 online 🤣🤣🤣
Modern gaming in a nutshell.
Its genuinely impossible to grind a build without buying vc this year lmao.
yup i play 2-3 nights a week since the beginning grinding one guy from a 60 with only online play and he just got to a 81 after 100's of games
2k is scam like that, i could play 1000 games and still not have enough VC to get 1 guy to a 90 overall.. thats insane, this game now forces you to do microtransactions
@@chadwellington2524 yeah its so sad because even like 2k20 you could get a 90+ off of one season of mycareer now you need to spend at minimum 50$ extra
So FIFA went from one money hungry company of ea to another 🤣🤣
Wish you, Brute, and AllCity were more "connected" in a way. They make great content and would love to see some sort of dual post!
My first 2k was ESPN 2k5, i thought id play 2k forever, times changed
Badge plugggg!!
Who else just gets 2k, on sale and just play it for fun instead of buying in on micro transactions!
W vid🔥🔥🔥🔥
I deleted before thanksgiving. Madden surprisingly go me hooked again on ultimate team again after years of just skipping out on it til the end of the year. I loved when they had hella challenges to earn stuff, but they cut back on it hard so I’m left bored
When NCAA football drops, 2k is going to lose a lot of players and then when GTA hits, it’s over for them. Yes I do know Rockstar and 2k are the same
2Ks numbers will not waiver. You're smoking rocks.
@@aplacecalledlife7738 are you dumb yes they will.
If you are taking about the parent company take 2 interactive iykyk
Haven’t played 2k since 2k17. Shit used to be so addicting, honestly sad to see how much sports games in general have fallen off in the past 5 years. The 2k14-17 run was legendary for me
This game is probably a good 4-5 outta 10 at best
I haven't put $$ into a 2k game since like 2018.... literally just play franchise with a few friends or online play now team up just to scratch that bball itch. Much happier.
That’s why I haven’t played since the first 3 weeks 😂
Yuh still bought it tho 😂 , I didn’t , stood on bidnessss my guy
@@sideshowbob1524 I didn’t buy it bozo I got it gameshared
I appreciate your transparency, man.
Hi bro love your vids
My first and last 2k on new gen. Will go back when they release “Nba 2K” and builds can be used forever.
🔥🔥
This is the perfect time for ea to drop a nba live game
I love you badgeplug
I don’t even play 2k like that no more I just came cus I like the videos 😭
yall need to actually thank 2k like legit we have been complaining about the cost of builds with vc for a long time and now that they have specifically said basically so what theres nothing you can do about it and are getting sued this is opening the lid on all the companys that thrive of micro transactions alot of things are going to change and new companys and older ones that was pushed out due to not going down the micro transaction route are waiting and ready to pounce on a newer refreshed gaming market in the coming years for once im actually hopefull
If I buy 2k25 then I'm just a slave to the franchise at this point because this game is one of the worst games I've ever played in my life.
Does it seem like they patched the jump shots every update or is it just me?
I remember before the patch I was making half court shots with my character like it was nothing when he was hot now when I play it I can’t knock down a half court shot for nothing regular he on the Knicks btw
If I would Rate 2k24 realistically would be a 5 out of 10 overall with the predatory VC
Havet played sense season 2 game is trashhhhh
