Yes, there is some comedy moments that my brother laughed at. Just finished the full prelude story and I definitely have to say this was the best they have done.
I do really wish for a full 2k10 style game though with full G-league integration and we work full seasons down there. Hoping we get it withthis style of game.
Thank god they fixed the shooting difficulty I played slashers only last year and it gets boring when you have an 85 open shot and still miss easy buckets. This is closer to 2k17 in shooting and I'm abke to put up respectable numbers shooting again. So happy with how this game turned out
I played several hours yesterday and I have to say it's a big improvement, there are some really nice quality of life improvements. Defense is a lot better this year. There are legit steal animations that make it easier to pick off passes.
The story in the My Career was actually pretty good, I was actually surprised. The menus, the training for badges all of that is so much faster. You get more VC per game now, it's a definite improvement over 2k18. Yes, you still have to grind VC and microtransactions still annoy me but it's better than last year.

That opening cutscene in the main game was getting to mgs4 length, Christ. I'm liking the characters more this year. Going to experience the online shenanigans tonight.
Got the switch version preordered for Tuesday. Who else it getting the switch version?
Edit: Wonder if this version will sell more than last year's? It's number 3 for Switch stuff at GameStop online for example.

How Hard is it to implement clothing physics on the switch you think? Even mobile has clothing physics if I'm not mistaken.

some people are showing -vc on things so we probably wont know till 11th but I would assume vc will be just as bad as last years.
apparently u can hit 3's like no tomorrow with maxed out limitless range badge u can even be sitting on the floor backwards and make shots. 3's and defense sounds 2k17 level
This. If they had an offline myplayer where stat progression was less of a grind, but the caveat was I could never take my player online, I'd be fine with that. Thrilled in fact.
This footage is fucking with me... why does the handheld look sharper than the docked version, when the clip itself is 1080p60fps? Did they put the wrong label?
Wait, where can you get 2K19 for $30 on PC? Unless you are in Europe and then CDKeys has it for $35
I really wish there was an option for SP only MyCareer and MP MyCareer. Yet we are not going to see it since 2K is getting so much $$$ from VC.
PC or PS4 Pro is the best bet. PS4 will likely have more players than PC and less cheaters. However you can probably get PC version cheaper.
Also, you can get a special costume on PS4.

I just watched cameron payne lock up steph curry.....this dribble lock up is fucking stupid sometimes
I was gonna jump at it then I saw the europe only :( cdkeys doesnt even release keys if they know ur not from that region they know i'm from usa cause of paypal, so I just decided to refund something on steam to get it for $35 lol

They have a US ones on there.......but it's $51.....not much of a discount
eh this $25 in steam wallet was from marketplace sales anyway. people really like collecting those steam cards/csgo boxes/keys.
Damn haha. My friend is gifting me Lebron Edition this Tuesday; I'm a casual player & will play 100% handheld. As you've said, the performance will definitely turn away serious gamers. Thank goodness I can skip cutscenes.
Nice impressions & tips!
If you're a long time fan, used to the console & PC performance- I can imagine the visual difference can be negativity affecting as you play. Wait a couple of years as the OP suggested.
Appreciate the videos you've posted!
Well, I am jumping in on Xbone X with the NBA bundle anyway so I will be good but would have double dipped on PC for $30.
It's good hearing about the VC earnings and badge progression for My Career. That sounds much, much better. That plus updated badge progression and improved defense gameplay actually sound really good. I did like Prelude as well.
Live 19 is also pretty great but it's still not quite there. I can see getting it during BF sales though.
Game is already better than 18 especially the my career. The story is better, no annoying cut scenes thus far ( if there was you can skip them) when youre in the NBA and they are more generous with the VC.
The my park games are different though. Players cannot seem to handle the ball well so it seems like you're constantly getting stripped or just flat out lose the ball. Maybe they did this so people don't dribble the air out of the ball?

yup.. on PNO you absolutey have to play off ball defense due to this shit
why the hell they ever got rid of the option to change your teams and jerseys at the same time as your opponent is like the most baffling shit of all time. why the FUCK would i want to play against the same team or play with the same jersey color. and why is it even ALLOWED
very tempted by 2k19 on switch, as I'll be traveling soon
then I remembered VC (apparently not as bad as 18, but still bad), so I'll keep voting no with my wallet

Is there a review embargo? When does it lift?
Curious how this will look and play on the One X. I'd only be playing vs mode online with regular teams - will I have enough opponents to play against? I have no interest in career create a player mode.

I went back to the PS4 NBA 2K18 last week (to try in vain to get the discounted offer for 2k19) and it was like night and day with the switch version in terms of how it ran. The Switch version is better, but is it that much better? I'm still way more tempted by the PS4 version, I think.
I found 2K18 rather unplayable on Switch and mostly played on PS4. 2K19 on Switch is good enough I cancelled any plans to get it on PS4 and am going Switch only.
NBA Live has micro transactions this year... If they could find a way to integrate an open world component into their game like 2K they'd have something. Imagine an open world game with wnba players so female gamers have a character to play.
I want a 6'8 shooting guard thats good at defending but not a defender. I'm going shot creating playmaker or dribble gawd playmaker. Something with some defense but gets buckets. Any ideas on what build i should go with? I want a 6'10 SF in a shooting guard role like KD but that takes too much effort.
Leaving my PS4 on to download while I'm at work so I can wake up tomorrow and grind badges.
I got the switch version on Friday and was playing it all weekend.
I don't have the ps4 version to compare it with. But I did have 2k18 on switch and the 2k19 version is definitely an upgrade from 2k18. The game runs smoother and the controls are more responsive. And they polished up a lot of things from last year. Everything just looks cleaner. Its not a huge upgrade in terms of visuals but it does look better. There are already plenty of 2k19 switch videos on youtube so u can see for yourself.
One of the things that annoyed me last year was how the cheerleaders hair just popped up. They fixed that for 2k19. :-)
And the gameplay seems identical to the console versions. I don't see that they've cut any content out.
All of the 2k19 tutorials I've been watching apply to the switch version.
There's still a shot meter, if thats what u mean. They added a layup meter this year though.
Seems similar to last year, but the shooting is more responsive this year in the switch version.
One of the major annoyances I had with the Switch version is that there was no way to put the console to sleep and resume the game. I realize it's because they don't want people cheating the netcode to accumulate VC (or something) but is there at least a way to save your progress so you can go back to it later? That and having to be online at all times kind of defeats the purpose of having it be portable in the first place, to me.
Legit curious but what about NBA live 2010 did you like so much? I wanna say that the last NBA live that was close to 2K in gameplay was '04.
Question about the Switch version and difficulty.
I don't mess with the sliders or anything and typically just play on Pro settings over the years since I'm more of a casual player of the series and I'm good with that. Last years Switch version was terribly difficult on the Pro setting, in comparison to previous years playing the PS4 version. How is the difficulty on Pro this year?
