Gameplay is unbelievable. I'm keeping mine .

Same here. In know way am I doubting the problems with game...however I can't justify returning it. Its not NBA Live bad..

It's all Lebron's fault IMO.

I really wanted to keep it too, but there's only a realistic window of opportunity to ask for a refund, and this game WILL come down in price, just due the fact it was one of the few launch titles (so there are loads of copies floating around and, it seems, lots of returned copies!).

What bothered me was that I'd waited over 2 weeks for a fix, 2K are constantly lying about the status of the game (and blaming people's network set ups in tickets for lost VC!) and they are rubbish at communicating. The ultimate fix could go live tonight. On the other hand, worse case scenario; we could still be sat waiting for this ridiculous game to be patched when NBA2K15 is due!!!

At least if you return it now you can buy it again when (if!) they iron out the bugs. If people actually used their consumer rights more often it might dissuade companies from releasing alpha products as retail releases!

I agree with a lot of you guys. i've yet to have a game make it to halftime before ps4 crashes down or there is a server problem. But its a fun game and i know "if" big if they can fix the issues than it'll be worth it. Tough to take it back..theres huge potential. But it is weird to me that Ronnie 2k is constantly playing the game online through thepark and he seems to have minimal problems. Hes always on twitter posting his play. Or even Smoove with his my career, they seem to have hardly any issues...smh. makes me wonder

I talked to MS support via live chat and explained the situation. They escalated it for me and 2 days later I recieved an email saying they have refunded my account the full amount.

No way is anyone accepting full refund for this game. Battlefield 3 has more issues than nba 2k does and you can't get refunds for that. I'm not denying the server issues, but the game itself is amazing, and truly the only next gen game I've played since launch. I'll never trade this game in.

If you are referring to BF4. No it isn't on the same plane as 2K14. Dice have actually patched in some fixes to their game unlike 2K. BF4 is much more playable.

I picked up both these titles only at launch. I've put waaaay more hours into BF4 because it works mostly unlike 2K14.
