    The game from My career mode experience is that this is the best basketball game from 2k since 2k12.

    pros: - finally nice, logic and real like basketball game play - players move fine, see each other, replace each other and so on - player grade reflects your points correctly, that is finaly really well done - cool trainings - personal calender stuff cons: - poor my career story    The game from My career mode experience is that this is the best basketball game from 2k since 2k12.

    pros:
    - finally nice, logic and real like basketball game play
    - players move fine, see each other, replace each other and so on
    - player grade reflects your points correctly, that is finaly really well done
    - cool trainings
    - personal calender stuff

    cons:
    - poor my career story (actually whatever story it would be it will always vastly ruin the game fun)
    - plenty of other boring stuff which is not possible to skip (pre game, after game, in game)
    - that stuff should be replaced by other features accesible in personal events in calender which you actually simulate only
    - still some major bugs (dont be surpised when while attacking you get whisled for backcourt violation when your teammate makes a pass from 3pt line direction backwards even its one step long only) or after a break you wait 20-30 seconds for the game to continue because somebody is walking slowly to the bench f.e.
    - no manual save possible    … Expand

    It's pretty alright. Despite the massive amount of bugs are terrible online play, its still enjoyable enough for me to drop a lot of hours into it and not get too angry.

    Visual Concepts just needs to add some spit and polish to turn this game into the best sports sim of our time.

    This year NBA 2K rocks again, but the onmipresent in-game currency casts a shadow over the career mode.

    From an outsider looking in this is a heck of a good sports game. Full featured with heaps to do and gorgeous to look at. I can only imagine how fantastic NBA 2K17 is for true fans of the sport, but even for a newbie like me it's an entertaining and comprehensive package that contains heaps to do.
