And it wasn't a crappy game. And 2K18 won't be 50 bucks extra.
I get that you play almost exclusively online based on your posts, but even there where you can tweak your sliders there's crap you can't control.

- dudes walking out of bounds
- people leaving their man wide open for no reason, terrible rotations
- CPU reacts to your inputs instantly, it's so artificial it's ridiculous
- the fast break game is a joke

This is literally the worst online 2K game ever made. Every mode is an arcade crapshoot.

I absolutely hate when people that are deeply restricted on this game make a claim about the entire thing. Don't speak for
all of us.

Stop defending them, hold them accountable and maybe they'll do something to make an improvement.

Yeah, the "stop complaining, the game is fine" comments by those who only play offline in a single game mode or two are almost as annoying as the fools who say blanket crap like "game is trash bruh!"

Just because you play a small portion of the game in which you have maximum control to influence the gameplay doesn't mean other people who play all its modes don't have the right to be disappointed.

I play every game mode except MyGM and have enjoyed this year's game nowhere near as much as 2K14/15/16 due to all the gameplay issues and bugs that have been discussed endlessly.

So when I and others see them slapping an extra $50 on their collector version coming off the back of a poorly implemented release, yes it seems rude by them "even though we don't HAVE to buy the Shaq premium edition".

I don't. I'm fine with that, too. Unless its a Barkley or Miller team it doesn't move me much. Neither of those seem likely. I just hope more is done with the looks and play styles of the ones we have. Touch them up first and maybe add in those 80s and 90s filter (WWE2K17 has them) for us to use to top it off.

People positive about the game do point out the modes they play. Most people who dislike the game simply point out they don't like it; and it's the same posters saying the same non-specific things since release.

The things you mentioned do happen; but many of us see the many excellent things the game does. So perhaps you stop speaking on behalf of the community that the shortcomings you've identified contribute to it being a bad game.

But the thread is about the price of the collector's edition, and you're well within your rights to not buy it. But the standard game is still regular price and most customers will be picking it up at this price.

I'm with you Dirk; the irony people are complaining about a $100 dollar game, but the same people probably stood in line for a $800 cell phone that they will trade in the next year for the newest model: y11:
