They say they are hoping for this week... its being held up my M/soft checks apparently...

played this lots over the weekend and even before the patch I am loving it, buzzer beaters will be brilliant.

It is a bit of a grind to level up but im up to level 31 now, still plenty of cards to unlock, still quite a few of my faves still locked.

Playing quick first to 10 games is a good way to unlock packs quite quickly, also helps to level cards up to Gold.

Apparently the next patch is going to be big and add lots of new "stuff"...

This has been the EXACT game I'm looking for during my "2K offseason", fun, quick, depth (but not too deep). Perfect......

Buzzer beaters are adding for some thrilling finishes.

I'm at level 50+ now, cant go any higher. Winning online matches is the fastest way to rank up as you get 400 xp for each win.

I'm gold level 2 now online.

I had to retire Bill Russel as my second teammate, great defense but the lack of offense coming from the second spot can get exposed by good players. I subbed Ewing in for him, step down on defense but upgrade on offense.

I only have 9 players left to unlock.

I don't like how Lakers/Magic/Cavs/Celtics Shaq are rated the same. Lakers Shaq should be the best and decreased as you go down the list.

Either way, for $ 20 and my "keep me busy" game until 2k18 release's, very pleasant surprise. Especially because I heard literally nothing about the game at all until 2 weeks before release.

Waiting on Nintendo Switch patch too.

I'm 4 players away from unlocking everyone.

Basically when you reach level 50+, you get gold packs, and you atleast get ONE play that ISN'T a repeat.

Just an FYI, if anyone else cares to know.

Also, it's really hard to rank up online after gold level 2. Because 9 out of 10 times the person you play is at least 2 levels below or more and you only get + 5 rep or even + 1 rep only for a win.

But you get -25 rep or - 49 rep if you lose.

You also get one rage quit per night without penalty, anything more you get docked rep points when you turn the game back on.

So I'm pretty much stuck at gold level 2.
