The iconic mode features the MyTeam Draft, offering a multiplayer mode where players pick a full lineup of Player Cards to assemble their team along with Triple Threat Online, which is a revamped take on the 3-on-3 mode. But it’s almost unconscionable to give last gen owners a completely different badge system for My Player creations – and don’t even get me started on the fact that the WNBA experience is limited to current-gen only.Build your dream lineup of NBA stars and legends across any era and explore game-changing experiences in MyTeam. It’s understandable that last gen versions don’t have the sprawling “The City” open world or some of the flashier bells and whistles. I mean, wasn’t the game literally developed on PCs? However, it was a somewhat insulting decision for 2K to choose to leave PCs out of the current gen.

#NBA 2K22 NEWS UPGRADE#

NBA 2K22 is a solid entry into the series and it does enough right - even on last gen - to merit the upgrade for serious fans. It’s a better all-around game than last year’s version.

And if you never plan on getting a current gen console, I’d recommend picking it up. This is the improvement we should have seen between NBA 2K20 and NBA 2K21.īut, on last gen consoles and PC, it ends up being a mixed bag.

You have to pay VC to unlock a basic dunk animation – it costs the equivalent of about a dollar or two of real money for your player to be able to dunk (at least for the SGs I made, perhaps there’s a build that comes with dunks included, none of mine did)įinal thoughts: If this game had come out last year, I would have given it a glowing review.

The game is still one giant funnel trying to get you to spend real money on microtransactions or pay attention to in-game advertising content.

The new NPC characters and open world are mostly a waste of time (but all the art in the game as you wander around is nice).

You’ll spend more time walking from point A to point B on the cruise ship than you will actually playing the game, if you’re trying to do the new “quests”.

Next gen players get side gigs such as becoming a famous rapper to enhance their experience

My Career is a more subdued experience, with just minor tweaks to the training, practice, and sponsorship aspects of the game.

It’s no longer a viable option to stand off a stationary defender and swat at the ball, I kept getting sucked into a fouling animation.

It feels like the devs simultaneously nerfed dribbling and made it harder to defend, this results in some eye-rolling moments when defenders blow by you by merely changing direction as soon as they start moving.

Everything feels smoother – navigating menus, transitioning between animations (such as pull-up fade-aways or chained dribble moves), and even passing and defending.

This is much, much improved over last year The new system relies more on skill but uses stamina as a measure of meter-size.

Dribbling is more challenging and less spammy.

Difficulty levels are solid this year – All Star difficulty is closer to NBA-feel than ever.

Dice rolls have been either eliminated or had their impact lessened, this game takes more skill.

I played last year’s version on PS4 Pro, Xbox One, and PC but this year I opted for the best possible last gen experience.

If 2K eventually offers the current-gen title to PC owners, I’ll cover it in a review then. Note: I didn’t have time to check out My Team for this year’s review.

Last gen versions however, follow the tried-and-true incremental update format that results in it taking hours to suss out all the changes. In other words, you’re getting a different game on current gen.

The major differences include a different environment (an open-world style city versus a cruise ship), the weird fact that the WNBA is completely omitted from last gen, a brand-new matchmaking system, and a completely revamped badge system for My Career on current gen.
