NBA 2K17 Park After Dark Returns This Saturday with DJ Premier

[carlito1171]

I don't mind an ad for the event here or there but geez does it have to be plastered all over my MYLeague games?!

[Roger_Black]

I don't get it... Been seeing this (DJ Premier) ad all week for this event, while playing MyCareer.

So I logged into MyPark (Old Town Flyers) tonight at 11pm EST... it took like 10 minutes to actually 'load' the park and get in... but there's only like 6 other ppl in here... just playing 2v2.

The Park is empty.

And I don't hear ANY music from DJ Premier.
Nobody has 'glow in the dark' clothes, either.

• So, just how does this whole DJ Premier event work?
• Is it a certain 'mode' of the game? How do I get in?
• Is it by 'invite only'? Or in a different area? (Like Sunset? or Rivet City?)
• Is it only meant for special players? Or a limited number?
• Does MyPlayer have to be a 'certain level' to get access?
• Do you need a special 'locker code' or something to get access to this event?
• (If so, it doesn't say that in any of the courtside banners, or on any 'in-game' messaging)

I never tried to attend the previous "Park after Dark" events, so I do not know how they work. At all.

This is the very first time I even tried.... But I feel like 2K did a really bad job at explaning 'HOW' this is supposed to work.

I t's like they advertised an 'special screening' of a movie all week long... but when I showed up at the theater to get my ticket... the whole place is closed down. And all the employees left. Long ago.

The only folks here are a few 'stragglers' (like myself) who thought they were seeing a movie also.

What gives? Am I missing something?
What did I not do properly?

Assist please. Thx in advance.

Thank you!! Sorry, I'm a complete newb at this Park After Dark thingy.

I wasn't really sure if I was going to take the risk of wasting time for this if it was broken and Twitter seemed to indicate it still was. However after loading in, I was able to get into two games successfully and play them out, I consider that alone a success as sad as that is.

It's a shame this finally worked out with the DJ Premier one, Snoop was more up my alley and would have been nice to actually play along with hearing the music.

So much lag. I haven't wanted to play in a while and I guess I picked the wrong night to want to play.

Played in the European one and it was so boring.

Love Preemo but music selection was weak. Kinda wish I went to the Future one but that was around NYE.. social time.

Couldn't even run a court coz everyone was doing the 3 point contest and the dunk contest and after defending a court once it would freeze.

Park is pure trash can't play it anymore, haven't had fun on it in months.

Hey Steve_OS,

Good luck with the event. Can I make one request. I'm currently in the finals for my offline MyLeague and whenever I start a game I get "DJ PREMIER" on the space where the teams should be. It's everywhere, and for an offline mode it's pretty immersion breaking.

Any way your team can separate that from the other modes?
