NEW UPDATE MADE WORSE!
***Do NOT listen to these reviews! As honest as possible, soon as I enter "my career" it CRASHES immediately! So what the hell are you talking about? It only works for season but my career doesnt even work and I have both iPhone 6, iPhone 7 and even tried it on an iPad. Crashes on ALL 3!
DO NOT BELIEVE THE POSITIVE REVIEWS THEYRE PROBABLY DONE BY 2K EMPLOYEES BECAUSE EVEN 3 OF MY FRIENDS HAVE SAME PROBLEM SO CLEARLY ITS JUST TOTAL BS.????
APP CRASHES NON STOP CANT ENTER CAREER MODE ANYMORE ON IPhone 6 and IPHONE 7.
I Hate this company 2K with iOS they should just GIVE UP!
JAN 24 UPDATE MADE GAME WORST ITS EVER BEEN YET!
This Jan.24th update sucks! They claim it was a roster update yet I have Kyle Lowry on New York Knicks and Derik Rose on Philadelphia 76ers? Cmon 2K I honestly am starting to HATE YOU GUYS!
When you use "EQUIPMENT" every time I pick something I go back and what I picked isnt on my player when I play the game! Tho it says "EQUIPPED" I hate you guys now. Starting to want to go to your office and well........
The equipment thing is suppose to boost your stuff too right, well I have all the equipment and if I pick +3 Points for shoes it goes (and actually says this) -1 3 Point shooting. Like omg I seriously hate 2K now so much that my GF was gonna buy me a 2K game for PS4 and I hate them so much now for this iPhone game alone that I told her Id rather have the EA Sports one. At least theyre more professional and better customer service. 2K thinks cause their stuff is popular that if they keep ripping people off and literally stealing from people that it wont catch on. Oh. It will.
I have players on the wrong teams in career mode, you cant change a dam thing and even with max everything and I mean everything youll be shooting air balls at important moments within the game. I stopped playing it till I see updates then I update and play a few. This new update actually made the game worse. At least before players werent walking through you like a ghost and the basketball going thru players. Its so out of wack now its actually worse from the last update.
1.) Do NOT spend a single dime on the player attributes.
It will do NOTHING to the player. Its a full out scam.
I have "MAX" on everything offensive literally. Spent a lot.
Even with a clear line of sight and an "EXCELLENT" shot and a "GOOD SHOT SELECTION"
I couldnt hit a 3 if my life depended on it. Brutal 2K.
2.) The badges are also a huge scam. They do absolutely NOTHING for your player! And Im only telling you this so you do NOT waste a dollar of your hard earned money on these con artists.
3.) The game, even with todays update (JAN 24/2017)
Oh and I have used this game on both my iPhone6 and my iPhone7.
4.) Once in "My Career" mode when you pick your jersey number if you get traded you will most likely NOT get your number ever again. I was #6 when I stared then I got traded to Cleveland and now Im #18, and unlike 2K16, you cant go into the "My Career"
and pick a different jersey # if you dont like the one that was assigned to you. And if you get traded again and the new team has your jersey number FREE that you initially started with it wont change it back. Itll keep the same crap number they gave you the first time you were traded.
5.) Also in "My Career" mode you dont have a choice on your nickname, again 2K16 was way better for that stuff.
Ive been called "Machine" which is so stupid but I cant change it. SMH.
6.) I just played an entire season 56 games and getting almost every "Dynamic Goal" and averaging 30.00 PTS, and 4 assists a game and I havent had a single "Badge" upgrade available since the first release. SMH.
7.) That "Gatorade Banner" that covers 1/8 of the court when it comes on, blocks my view of the basket and players 95% of the time.
(no exaggeration)
Very frustrating and 2K designers are so stupid that they cant tell a huge banner like that on a cell phone or iPad is going to block 1/8th of your entire game screen.
These guys must be teenagers who designed this.
8.) "Animation Jumpshots" are all the same now.
So if you spend 200 coins or 2000 coins theyre going to be exactly same anyway so my suggestion is to NOT even spend or waste your coins.
FINAL THOUGHT
2K only released the update yesterday (Jan.24/2017) because theyve had so many complaints. And they thought by releasing a fake update
(which it is) would shut people up till they decide to get off their lazy butts.
They would of been better off to just keep it the same way as 2K16, and just update the rosters, because 2K16 was amazing and besides stealing my money a few times the game 2K16 was almost perfect. The graphics are the exact same, the only difference between them is that 2K17 has college.
Sure 2K is going to hate me for saying this but...
I strongly recommend you DONT buy this game.
Not until they revamp the entire game completely because it really is terrible. Its not even that fun to play because all of the things that will bother you about the game, you cant escape from while playing the game.
And remember what I said.
If you think by spending $2, $10, $20, $100, on the in game purchases thinking its going to make you or your player better. Thinks again.
The player attributes in this game are the biggest con/scam that I have ever seen in iOS gaming so far.
And I have worked for Apple since 2010 when it was still the iPhone 3G bulky curve lol.
*****************************For the time being till you see this review changed from having only 1★ to 5★s.
I suggest you dont even waste your time nor your money on this, because it will only frustrate and upset you.
You have my word that when their is an update for this game, I will update it immediately, and then Ill play one game for you guys and come back in here and change my review if it deserves it.
*****************************
If I were to sum this game up in 2 emojis it would be this...
It is a ??!
