Why did you stop playing NBA 2K18?

[MarkWilliam]

I have seen some posts declaring NBA 2K18 as a "debacle" and things of this nature.

I totally respect different things make different people like/dislike NBA 2K18.

I still play it and feel it is the best one of this generation personally.

But seeing as we're this close to 2K19, the fear of reading a "game breaker" is now low for me haha - keen to hear what were the major gripes of the game for everyone.

I'll post mine later - but as stated, I still play it and I still enjoy it overall.

because defense is horrible especially cpu can't stop pick and rolls plays, there are alot bad clipping especially steal ball.. that's it. i am glad that 2k did overhauled on defense gameplay including rebuilt steal system, ai cpu improvement on defense. no more blow by defender.. less clipping for NBA 2k19

I played 3 games tonight, so I guess I didn't.

I can't fathom why people hate 18 more than 17 gameplay wise. That game was the real debacle. 18 is the best game since 14 imo and I'll be playing it until 19's midnight release.

I've enjoyed 18 enough, it's not perfect, but it's definitely better than '17, agree with the post calling that one a debacle. There's been periods where I stop playing, but I'm back at it again and having fun lately.

Took me three weeks to put 2k18 down. Played a few more exhibition games once the playoff rolled around, but that's a poor $60 dollar value of entertainment.

1. Otto Porter defense, allowing for a wide open 3.

Spoiler

Seriously Tony Park!? ... leaving Curry wide open?

Spoiler

Seriously Klay Thompson!?

Spoiler

2. Transition defense is terrible

Spoiler

3. "I got ball" feature ... poorly done, not what I expected. Had the impression I could manually press an "I got ball" button to wave off my defensive teammate. Not the case. If I run up to the ball handler with ANY player, I expect my teammate to leave and pick up someone else.

Spoiler

4. Can't tell my teammate to "stop" switching on defense. If I want to use Durant to lockdown on Lebron, I don't want Curry to switch onto Lebron when I could have easily fought around the screen.
