The servers are completely unbearable and loading times are long, hindering the online experience because the online modes are great, but they never work. However, there are issues that hurt this game in other ways.


A few new additions to mycareer and myGM are solid as well. It plays smooth and gameplay is easy and intuitive. Also, the Spike Lee NBA 2k16 is a solid offline basketball game.

NBA 2k16 is a solid offline basketball game. These are not things that are currently enhancing my experience. Spike Lee has made myplayer mode feel like it's choosing to exclude me, and make me feel that by participating I am appropriating a culture that is not mine. I can't decide if it's a reverse blindside or if my character is just having Rachel Dolezal type delusions. I'm trying to figure out how to reconcile these things as I hear the story and look at the Spaniard I have created to resemble myself. MyPlayer this year forces you to be a player named Frequency Vibrations from the projects in Brooklyn, and have an African American family with a twin sister. The attention to detail and progression of the game mechanics is stellar. All of the updates to the gameplay and AI are stellar as usual. And it's Long time, year in year out, 2K player.
