Playing against the CPU on all-star & superstar is surprisingly good in terms of actually being able to play defense :wtf:

So how does this play in comparison to 2K? Is the AI difficult without resorting to cheapness

playing on superstar if you make passes 60% of the time it's picked off lol. Game is ok. I prob won't cop. 2K has always been trash to me. and live 10 was the last great basketball game.

they just need to create a new engine for this game.

It plays well, there's some jankiness relating to the animations not being as good as 2ks, but things like floor spacing and defensive rotations are better than 2k17. I don't know how it'll compare to 2k18, but dudes just don't randomly leave shooters open for no apparent reason.


The layups need to be toned down though, dudes hit some incredibly contested shyt.

I'm just happy for 2K to have some competition. I agree, graphics/animations are a step below 2K but I think they're cooking with grease.

Played it today

It was fun, but I got 2k17. Not purchasing another NBA game
If live can give me roster editing/hell at least create a regular player
I would see myself buying it again tho
