    This is legit the worst game I’ve ever played. I can’t even describe how much of a disappointment it is. No improvements made from 2k19. This game is not even slightly realistic with graphics that just would never happen in real life. Help defenders makes me want to break my ps4.

It’s almost impossible to get assists because your teammates will miss almost every shot they take and the defenders are like magnets. I can’t for the life of me understand why they would get rid of rookie difficulty in mycareer. Foul calls are so ridiculously soft it’s not even fun to play anymore. Illegal screening is so easy to do that you can’t even run pick and rolls. The AI is way too good on stealing passes when they aren’t even looking at the ball and my 90rated 3 point player with silver catch and shoot still misses wide open 3s. Also whoever decided that layups need a shot meter should be fired because that is the stupidest **** I’ve ever seen. NBA players don’t miss open layups often enough to need a shot meter. Layups should be an automatic animation that may be affected by a defender. Even when I turned off shot meter affecting layups it still made me miss open layups. Also I have dunk packages equipped so why won’t my player ever dunk? The defense essentially cancels out deadeye because you will not make a shot with a defender closing out on you. Players who aren’t that good all of a sudden are hitting guarded 3s while my guy can’t hit an open running jumper. The defender always hedges our perfectly so pick and rolls are essentially useless. Grinding up is hard because you can’t do anything during games so you barely pick up enough coins to gain levels. Developers need to take a hard look at mycareer because they really messed it up in this game to the point where it’s not even fun or worth playing. Seriously considering getting a refund and going back to 2k17 even without servers. If there were negative ratings I would’ve given this game that.… Expand

You pay full price for a AAA G game, but then in order to really start having some fun, you have to purchase vc if you want any type of fair or even play. It's ridiculous. In the neighborhood mode which is my preferred mode to play, before you can even get competitive you have to spend hours upon hours of playing against the cpu and performing tedious tasks, get bad progression points which are very important and then just maybe you can be somewhat competitive. Not to mention that dribble moves were removed from 2k19, jumpshots are inconsistent and forget about attempting to play without the quick draw badge because jumpshots take forever to release. There's barely anyone at the parks, the neighborhood is the same as 2k19 it's insulting that they charged full price for a game that's essentially a downgrade of the previous year's version. If you're reading this review, avoid at all cost. If you need your basketball fix, i suggest you keep playing 2k19. That's what I'm doing now.… Expand

Even the streamers admit to how bad the game is. Here we go:

    1. Missed layups are the biggest legacy problem of any sports franchise ever--even worse than the terrible defensive AI in Madden games. It's simply put the most unrealistic thing in any sports game. They do it to make up for the lack of any form of decent defensive AI.

    2. Passing is broken.

    3. MyTeam cards are ridiculous. By midseason, most elite cards are basically duplicates of each other. Most elite cards start receiving 99s and HOF badges across the board. Then it gets stupid with Alex Caruso and Bol Bol galaxy opals. They could make a much better myTeam mode by simply using cards from each season. Galaxy opals would be like LeBron on Miami, Giannis 2019, etc. Enough with the silly cards.

    4. My God, the unskippable cutscenes. The timeouts, the halftime...what a waste of time. And the wait for the damn ref to give you the ball on a free throw? SMH.

    5. Contracts in myTeam need to go. A nuisance for players with lots of MT and a problem for casual players.

    6. Height is way overrated. This game renders players under 6'6" basically useless in the meta. So, all time greats like Nash, AI, Stockton, and Isiah are worse than a diamond Lonzo Ball.

    7. Pack odds and people wasting money. Stop it. Introduce legitimate box toppers or GTFO.

    8. Story modes in sports games? Who enjoys these? God awful writing and cringeworthiness, but it's the same in all sports games with career modes. Who buys sports sims to play a lousy story mode?

    9. Defensive AI needs a setting to stay in front of your man. I teach elementary school kids this principle, so I'm sure NBA players could get it. On HoF difficulty, my teammates stand around like idiots and let players run by them for alley oops, etc, all the time. It's the definition of artificial difficulty.

    10. Many, many other things. I could go on forever about how frustrating this game can be. I seriously don't know how people can enjoy this game long term. But I'm a sucker who buys it every year, being a massive NBA fan.

Per usual the servers are still awful and they’ve absolutely gutted the franchise mode without any sort of improvements. They also took out 2k share which I thought was a super unique and creative way for players to develop and create different all time teams and draft classes. Gameplay wise it’s the exact same thing as 2k19. Like I said 2k7 was the first 2k I’ve bought and I’ve bought every single one since then but I’m done. I won’t buy 2k21 even if they put Kobe on the cover as a form of cash grab. I’d rather play 2k18 than any of this garbage. I don’t know how you make a game WORSE than before but they succeeded in putting out someone who’s paid over 2 grand in games and add ons over the last decade to this company.

The game is very unfinished and there is a ton of glitches, not to mention its THE SAME GAME AS LAST YEAR. In the 6 months or so, I have not been able to load or successfully play a myteam game, and I also lag on every other game mode including friendly game with friends. I am now going to give you reasons on why this game is the worst.

    1. FIX THE SERVERS: I get it, the servers will never be perfect but that doesn't excuse 2k from being this bad. I lag on every single game mode and myteam I can get log into a game before lagging out within the first 60 seconds. The playground is slightly better but i still lag out half the time

    2. FIX THE PACKS ON THE MARKET AND PLAYERS TO START THE GAME (MYTEAM)
    2k needs to stop juicing the packs not to mention the odds are horrible making you spend hundreads of dollars of the game. You need an galaxy opal team to win online which you need to spend a lot of money on. In my opinion NBA 2k17 and 18 had the best Myteam because it wasn't overloaded, You had to work for your players, Packs weren't juiced, Not a pleathra of high overall players, Gameplay was better, and less players. Also the myteam game cannot start with rubys and up. Start with saphires and under for the next game.

    MYCARRER IS TO BROAD AND VERY INREALISTIC

    MyCareer is my favorite mode in 2K. However this year was a complete and utter disapointment.
    Sharpshooters are useless in this game they only have a 3-pt rating on 95 it should be a 99 because its your only skill and the build will be completely useless from everywhere else on the court

    Playmakers deserve 99 ball handle and Passing ratings, also very high speed, accelleration, and algilty and a slightly better shot

    Slashers shouldn't be able to shoot 3s

    NBA 2k should go back to the primary and Secondary skills not the thing we have now which allows Glass Cleaning Lockdown centers to shoot 3s. Also if u don't get a green release it doesn't go in. They need to take out the amount of badges they nobody uses. Also the builds you see "offensive mined wing" thats bad and broad and shouldn't be in the game. Centers should not be able a pure playmaker.

    NBA 2k has gotten more lazy with their game over the past year or so. They forgot to put in the simulate game feature on my league they put no effort in their this year because its the same as last year. The playground is the same everything is identical. Also when playing myleague you get blue screened every 10 minutes. The mygm mode lacks details and they tried to make good and they didn't do that. Currently the start today feature doesn't even work I can't do anything once I'm on the screen. 2k has claimed that they didn't put much effort in this game so 2k21 would be great, thats like saying I'm going to do 7th grade twice so Ill be ready for 9th grade. Thats a very very poor excuse. 2K please fix your game.    … Expand

    Some gameplays fails with full whites and no green lights, your player going for a dunk and then he just changes to layup and etc.

Y en el 4 cuarto ninguno de mis compañeros anotaba, mis tiros no sincronizaban y Atlanta metió 6 triples seguidos (4 de young) y terminó ganando, no importa que tan bien hagas el punteo del tiro en defensa, el rival anotara hasta con los pies para que pierdas... como les decía, el juego no valora tu habilidad con el control sino su algoritmo todo preparado para que gastes dinero en comprar boost bajo el nombre de gatorade... en fin.. una basura

If a defender breathes on you it forces you into a layup motion with a shot meter??? When playing on the ball defense it is impossible to stay in front of a ball handler, and even if you do, your teammate will promptly sell you out and leave his man wide open in the corner for 3. Forced animations lead to inconsistency with shots and other timed maneuvers. Passing is one of the most wacked out experiences yet. Without icon passing its completely unpredictable where the ball will go. Youd think it would go to the highlighted player??? But no, it goes to the player who is standing behind a defender playing with his ****. Overall this game is poorly made with very little attention to actual gameplay. I dont even need to mention the b***s*** microtransactions. All i want is consistency. I want to be able to hit THE SAME open shots game to game and not feel like im playing with a totally different player depending on who the algorithm has chosen to win. Crap game and i will not be buying 2k21 unless it goes on a fire sale like 2k19 did or ends up on psplus. 2k has lost a long time customer who has played the game for decades and im sure they dont even care bc theres some young kid with his mom’s CC number that can spend more than you and whoop your ass with his $50 myplayer or $300 myteam. Dont waste your money on this title or the new one.… Expand

    I play this game solely offline because I just want to play mycareer. Obviously they either don't have any testers or they delibrately make the game worse so you can buy their latest edition. Either way they have made me never want to even consider buying a game from them again.

Obviously they either don't have any testers or they delibrately make the game worse so you can buy their latest edition. Either way they have made me never want to even consider buying a game from them again.

    Here's a list of things I have experienced just as a mycareer player.
    From the start

    1. Player is deaccelerated during fast breaks so AI can come ahead of you.
    2. Player runs into invisible walls that make it difficult to come up the half court.
    3. Awful animations are randomly thrown at you when you drive to the basket wide open. If you want to dunk sometimes you go into a pull up jump shot, or if there is a defender it's like you throw the ball up just so they can block it.
    4. Mismatches don't exist when you are playing offense. An example of this a center is able to keep up with me (a pg) on the perimeter. While my AI center can't post up their PG?
    5. Mismatches DO exist for the computer. Often example of this is I'm constantly posted up and abused by centers in the paint. While my Center who ever that may be cannot defend the perimeter.

    After patches
    6. Double teams are almost constant. The AI tend to overuse this tatic
    7. Even if you don't use turbo you are always slowed down so that the AI can get ahead or catch up
    8. The game constantly gets you into stupid turnovers. Sometimes your own teammates committ these turnovers and its counted as yours. It's hilarously stupid
    9. There are moments that even if you are playing great perimeter defense that the AI will just run through you and score. Makes zero sense
    10. I am constantly pushed out of position on defense by either invisible walls. "Inadvertent" screens by my own teammates or just plain deaccleration of my player so that I cannot make the play. Also jumping to block a shot is fairly nonexistant as a guard because the animation will change your position so that you are either jumping away from the ball or fouling.
    11. My teammate AI over time from when I first bought this game till now has dumbed down significantly. I often get double teamed while my teammates just stand there without moving to the basket. There are some instances when I'm on the fast break when I have someone open and throw an alley oop and they don't jump. (These are players who are known to catch lobs) the AI wants to at least wants me to have one turnover a game. There are also instances where my teammate AI passes up a wide open shot for a more difficult shot just so they can miss.

    There are a ton more but I will just keep it at this. 2K has lost a fan with this edition. 2K18 & 19 had me close to quitting but they finally got me with this edition.

    I'm waiting for NBALIVE to come out with something decent so I can get my basketball fix    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely disgusting. MyCareer is a horrible grind. Badge system is a joke to me. Micro purchases out the ass which is **** but the only way to get anywhere, slowly. After they take the server down you can't play MyCareer anymore ! Pathetic. Spend 500hrs and 500$ to make your guy maxed then never get to look at it ever again after they cut the server. Waste of time and money. A complete embarrassment to these people. Bad.… Expand

    I literally signed up for a metacritic account just to post about how garbage this game is.

    The gameplay itself is the worst in years. Your AI teammates? Essentially useless and Dumber than a box of rocks. On offence, if you call for a pick, you're lucky if your pick actually works and gives you spacing for the half a second needed to get a shot off. But thats a rare occurrence.

    The gameplay itself is the worst in years. Your AI teammates? Essentially useless and Dumber than a box of rocks. On offence, if you call for a pick, you're lucky if your pick actually works and gives you spacing for the half a second needed to get a shot off. But thats a rare occurrence. What's more likely to happen is that the enemy defender regardless of their players attributes, can slide right over or around your pick. Every. Single. Time. If you try to pass in, there's a 50/50 chance that your pass will get stolen. If it doesn't get stolen, it's useless because post moves get read 100% of the time by the AI. no matter the difficulty, you will always be covered 75-100% of the time in the post. Trying to pass out to an open teammate is also impossible, because your teammates DO NOT MOVE ON THEIR OWN ACCORD. I'm not kidding, they do not run plays or even move unless you stop and don't touch the controller yourself. You'd think that defence would be slightly easier (after all they programmed the enemy AI to play good defence right?) You're sorely mistaken. You're teammates will NEVER SHED THEIR MAN unless you control them yourself. So if the enemy sets a decent pick from the outside, and the ball handler is driving in for a dunk, your PF covering the corner post will just stand and watch as a layup or dunk slams down for 2. It gets so goddamn frustrating seeing AD play the weakest defence ever. When the enemy AI shoots, there's a 50/50 chance that your contesting of the shot won't count. This leads to the AI sinking easy as hell layups on you when you're smothering the hell out of them. This game has no consistency whatsoever. Steph Curry and Klay Thompson miss open 3's CONSTANTLY when they're full bar (slightly early-late) on the shot meter. This would never happened back in 2K15 (the last game I consider to have half decent shooting and defense mechanics). Meanwhile you see no name 2nd and 3rd stringers pulling off 20+ point games because your defense decided to lobotomize themselves that morning. These criticisms have all been strictly gameplay focused and this isn't even touching the rest of the garbage attached to 2k20 like the microtransactions and the casino BS. TL;DR If you want to play the worst basketball game ever invented (until this year of course) play this one. If you wanted to experience what 1v9 basketball is like, play this game.    … Expand

    NBA 2K20 isn't the most groundbreaking opus in the IP, but it's still a must-have for all the basketball fans out there.

    NBA 2K20 includes fewer innovations than a "copy/paste club", yet manages to still play and feel pretty great. Gambling and microtransactions involved are becoming more and more toxic with each year tho.
