Picked this up last night, only played for a little bit so can't really compare to 21.

The smaller text annoys me, even with glasses some of it is hard to read. And the blue TT court is shit when you're given a bright blue Clippers jersey to start with!

Just playing around with the auction house and trying to improve my team in myTeam before I really get stuck into the gameplay.
 
Have 3 nets (Gold) players and can't put them in the Harden exchange. Annoying as I need to improve that position. Went all out and got the 75th anniversary edition. Pulled Amy Walton from one of my 10 packs.
Going to start up a myCareer soon.
Edit: Seen on reddit, other people having the same issue. Hopefully patched soon!

Please tell tell me that the shooting isn't completely broken to start off this year.

I'm on next gen, it's fine. Scoring in general is harder though. They've ditched the BS speed boosting and blow by animations. Made blocking easier.

Rookie dom is easy, Pro and up are a little tricky.

I can't get the Series plays to run though.

Will probably pick it up in a couple of weeks. Was very disappointed with the release of 2K21 that I didn't feel the need to pre-order this year.

Yeh, 21 at release was ****ing terrible. Unplayable. Only really started enjoying it when I switched to next gen. This one, you can definitely get in and ease into it.

I assume they are running the seasons on the MyTeam again?

My early observations playing with the shitty starting available cards

Shooting is better

Dribble moves and blow bys have been nerfed

I don't actually score 90% of my baskets at the rim this year
 
Been sucked into the early positive feedback and ended up picking it up this morning.

I'm enjoying the MyTeam set up more on first impressions this year.
 
Only played myteam as of yet. Career looks pretty much the exact same apart from a couple new pie charts and the usual easy additions.

The new rating system in myteam is weird but I can see what 2k are doing. It's kinda like Diamonds = Amethist. Amy= Ruby and so on. While it might look like a god squad, in game it plays like usual. Go to 2kmt central and have a look at the best 3 point shots, none of the cards are crazy and the best shots are like 85-90.

Seems like 3's are easier to hit with lower ratings, I'm pulling up with 85 AI like crazy, greening everything like he's Steph. Also, don't think height is as important as usual, every player feels like a similar height, real difference is only in speed.

Gameplay is pretty good, nothing special but it's alright. Seems like plenty of content, like everything you do contributes to something else. You're not just playing for the sake of playing.
 
Heads up, I just encountered some of the biggest bullshit I've ever seen.

In the Colossal challenge you have to win while scoring from 8 dunks. I was down 2 in the 3rd when I got the 8th dunk and the game ended and it registered as a loss I'm assuming because I was losing at the time.

I noticed a game end when I scored the 9th 3 in the 3pt skill challenge as well which sucked because I was also trying to score 40 with the player for a different challenge.

What is this nonsense.
 
Yeah, a few early bugs it seems that needs to be patched. I don't even know how you were getting dunks! I can't get into the paint with diamond Shaq sitting there. There was a glitch yesterday when it said it just needed a win (without the dunks). Thought sweet, come back to that and now it wants Dunks again haha. The exchange ain't working the Harden, Paul pierce is the only Nets gold player you can put into it.

Wish I had have played it yesterday then lol

Shaq is a problem in that challenge, you just have to avoid him. I do have some really good dunkers and know how to cheese the AI pretty good.

Dunno what to say about the exchange I never use it. Tried to feed it McCullough and Dinwiddie just to see if it would work for me but nothing happened :(

That's not a bug. That's deliberate.

Skills Challenges are where the Weekly and Moment Challenges will reside, plus additional Challenges never-before-seen in MyTEAM. With Skill Challenges you will complete feats like hitting Klay’s 9 threes with a single player, or matching the Champion Bucks’ 29 threes as a team in a game. Only with Skill Challenges, getting the win at the end of the game may be optional! Drain that three, slam the last dunk, or even dish that final assist needed, and the Challenge ends immediately. In a late-game situation and don’t think you can complete the requirements? Rematches are now allowed in Skill Challenges, letting you have a quick retry while still in the game. In addition, you can complete Skill Challenges out-of-order, allowing you to pick and choose which Challenge to complete in the group at your own pace. From re-living history to creating your own, Skill Challenges are going to be a brand-new way to experience Single Player MyTEAM!

Maybe I am getting old now, but I do not understand why people seems more interested in playing online modes against players with purple hair or basketball card games than playing a simulation of the sport that actually looks and feels like the real thing.

Nothing that I have heard so far suggests they have any intent of going back to what the game used to be like.

If you don't understand the appeal of card collecting, you're probably not old enough.
 
Just with that skill challenge information HBK619
I just played the colossal challenge. Had 7 of 8 dunks completed and sort of forced OT as I could not get the final dunk in normal time. Got the lead and then got the 8th dunk. Game ended like you said, challenge not complete though. Obviously must be done in regular time! Annoying as why wouldn't they just end the challenge if it doesn't work in OT. Now need to try again. :'(

I realize its a feature but it seems they haven't tested it properly that can't be what they intended.

I tried it again today, managed to breeze through finishing it in the 2nd quarter. Its kind of a nice feature when it works in your favour
