Awful game

Not bad I guess
It takes so long for the mb to Download.
Association
make it to where we can use one player in association mode nd need updated rosters
Best
Purest good game very good swag gege
This game sucks
My career deleted for no reason out of nowhere, after I built my player to an over all 99.. screw this game
Why
I loved this game so much I played it for hours but when I logged in, my main account was all gone, nothing, and I won a lot of mvp awards and other stuff in it and I was in hall of fame and had a few seasons left😭I want it back please help me
一直閃退
新手任務都還沒過完，閃退了快十次
NOT UP TO DATE TEAMS
PLEASE DO UP TO DATE TEAMS. The game has so much potential
Don’t download this app
It’s trying to hack you in your device in the voices to the judges. They make weird noises when you make a shot in the hoop and they make weird noises and it makes your device crash.
TRASH
This game is buns and super limited on what you can do in my career, 2k20 mobile is better then this game smh
AI assist
It's a very good game, graphics and gameplay is very smooth but I would suggest you give us an option to permanent the AI assist during games mostly in mycareer. Sometimes it's stressful to hold down a button when I don't feel like playing
Needs roster updates!
Game is good and everything but it needs to be up to date, very limited GM options so it’s also something that needs to be fixed
Nice Game
When i was playing the ball is invisible and cant fix it can you please update your game to fix it?
GOTTA GET BETTER
BUT ITS A FUN CHILL GAME TO PLAY
Boring
Too slow for a mobile game. Browser games run faster than this.
Needs more
Needs to be more like console times are changing time to expand and put more features in the game
無法下載
無法下載😒
Hard and glitchy on iPad
Half of the controls are missing on an iPad and it can be quite hard and confusing to learn all of the skills but overall it is a good game with good mechanics and attention to detail
Drop 2k27 already
Come on what are you waiting for just release 2k27 im waiting
AHHHHH
It takes WAAAAAAAAY to long to load could better
4/5
The game is fun. It’s just I tried to mute the announcer, cause I wanted to listen to my music, but he just won’t shut his big mouth and you should be able to build your team like on my career like you’re also a player and you build your team
👎
UI is still very buggy. Right after i won the championship in Association mode, the game got stuck in presenting the FMVP. I keep clicking next but it just loops back.
Add jersey option in MyCareer
please add jersey option in MyCareer and customization of in game accessories like length of the socks and shorts
All star game
Wait, I made 11 points when it was a tiebreaker
All my builds get deleted
I made at least 10 builds because they won’t save, Everytime i make a build and upgrade it and save the game and get back on later, my build and everything is gone and I have to start over.thata not good.
One step closer to the console version
Awesome great improvements over 25 arcade edition one thing k think it’s missing is the smoothness in gameplay like dribbling and shooting if they can smooth out the gameplay and animations so it’s looks more realistic and a big request I have is that you add jump into game for simcast live one of my favourite features in the 2k console version
媽的爛遊戲
買遊戲 買一個低能遊戲王朝模式 例行賽打完 季後賽排名完全亂排 他媽我全聯盟第一名的球隊 變到沒季後賽打 倒數的直接跑到第二種子 媽的廢物遊戲 弄成這鳥樣還要錢
Lost game save
I was playing a MyCareer player and had put about 20000 VC into upgrades, but when I loaded into it today my save was gone. I like playing the game but it makes me not want to play if I'm just going to lose the time I spent on it.
Super addicting
Fun for nba fans
Laggy and unplayable online
This is fine for casual MyCareer, where performance is great. In online, though, it performs below 30FPS and is virtually unplayable.

If not for our MyPlayers at least for the Rosters and MyNBA/The Association Ex. Quick, Normal, Slow - CAMERA AVAILABILITY The ability to move the camera around in a 360 to be able to see how the new shot looks from different angles. This is for both MyCareer and for the Editing Menu for the Rosters/MyNBA - CONTROLLER CUSTOMIZATION We need slightly better controller customization. “Console” controller type like on the Nba2k24 MyTeam arcade edition should be an option also. - DUNK, CONTACT DUNK, ALLEY OOP CUSTOMIZATION FOR THE ROSTERS and MyNBA/The Association The ability to edit/switch the Contact Dunk Packages and Alley Oop Packages on the Rosters and MyNBA. Ex. Removing Contact Dunks Off Two for Lebron James We also need to be able to make our own Dunk, Contact Dunk, Alley Oop Packages by selecting from the packages already in the game and adding them to a new package of our own(that we can name). This should also be the case for the Rosters, MyNBA or Association Mode. Ex. Making an Old Man 2026 LeBron James Dunk Package or a 1998 Michael Jordan Dunk Package 3. SHOE UPDATES FOR THE ROSTERS/MyNBA - Kevin Durant(All Time Warriors) should have his “KD 11” shoes. - Harden(All Time Rockets) should have his “Harden 1” shoes. - Current Kyrie should have “Kyrie 5” shoes. - Current Damian Lillard should have his “Dame 7” shoes. - Lebron James(All Time Cavaliers) should have his LeBron 6s for 23 years old version of him Or “LeBron 15” or “LeBron Soldier 11” shoes for 2015-18 LeBron. - Scottie Pippen(All Time Bulls) should have Nike “Air Foamposite Pro” shoes. - Penny Hardaway(All Time Magic) should have his “Air Penny VI” shoes.
90s association is broken
The standings in 90s association are all wrong. The worst team is somehow a 3 seed despite 10 wins, and my team missed the playoffs despite 60 wins and the 2nd best record in the west. Please fix
Ok
I mean it’s a really good game. The teams are good. Victor Wembanyama is in the game but it takes way too long to load in once you start up a game yeah and please add my team.
Amazing
I really love the graphics and all the different modes you can choose to play is AMAZING it’s like playing in a consel
Glitchy VC
Soon as I get to 10000 VC the game shuts off and the VC disappeared as if I used it already but I never did. Coincident?!? 🤔
Good
It’s a great game but I personally think your past 2k nba games have been better. Specifically the my player. But overall really good game.👌👌👌
Two Star Rating
Because you guys removed the 2K camera view in the association mode. Why????Pleaseeeeee bring it back!!!
Keeps crashing 😤
It’s way more fun than prev years but it won’t let my play more than one game before it crashes
Updates and latest edition
The game is up to par like playing on a system. Will there be a new edition coming soon, the ability to change different uniforms, and different game type modes?
Ja morant is a terrorist
Lawrld….
The best
2k is so great
Frustrating
This game is great. But it crashes constantly. I’ve already lost access to a team that took 2 seasons to build. Other times I play a game, win and then have it crash losing any progress. So much wasted time. I give up.
CRASH
Mine constantly crashes when I play a connection game
2k27
Why is there no 2k27 moble
Buns
Not good
New update
love playing the 2000’s association mode but i keep getting crashed at the 2010 year every time i come back. can u guys pls fix the bug that causes the crash.
Keeps crashing
Everyone I’m doing something simple like walking or changing my outfit it crashes
