Paid for the SuperStar Edition, and accidentally put in the wrong birth date so I'm listed as underage. Since that takes away any online access, the whole game is pretty much inaccessible. I talked with their support team about changing it and they gave me 2 solutions: 1. Complete the child account verification process using your correct information for adult verification. Once verified, you can manage permissions and enable the desired game modes via the Parental Permissions section in your account settings. I've had to sign into this every time I open the game, and it's an arduous process with the code not working half of the time. 2. Create a brand new platform ID and begin the setup process again, making sure to enter your correct information during the initial launch. * Keep in mind that content and VC redeemed on the original account with the incorrect information cannot be transferred to the brand new platform ID. This includes content from special editions, purchases, or Locker Codes. The second option takes away most of the reason why I bought the SuperStar edition, which was for all of the VC. Requested a Refund. I hate 2K...

Off to a great start 2K, I just bought 50 dollars worth of VC, money got taken out of my steam wallet and everything and I got no VC. Reset the game and steam 3 times just to make sure it wasn't on my end.

Paid for early access, have an AMD 9070xt. fails to launch game with error code 0x887a006. no fix. will be asking for a refund.

Same game different year. Same hardware malfunctions on PC, they're aware around half of PC users can't play and said F it we're going live. My experience with the game: Download 94 GB. Launch Game. Give Email - Decline Opt In Compile Shaders 1. Complie Shaders 2. Crash. Update to Latest Bios, set to Defaults, Latest Graphics driver (Driver Only), Factory reset Graphics. Launch Game. Compile Shaders 1. Complie Shaders 2. Crash. GPU failed with error code 0x887a0006 GPU Name: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 0x887a0006=The GPU will not respond to more commands, most likely because of an invalid command passed by the calling application. Had hopes 2k would fix it but that's never happened before, not sure why I had hope.

Game Simply does not work on amd 90 series gpus. A MASSIVE company with NBA funding can't make a game run on a brand new graphics card. I actually wanted to play but screw my hardware i guess.

Read some reviews about how game crashes for people even with a high-end PC and I was like no way. My game runs fine for the past 2 hours without crashes and my specs are the following: AMD 7600XT 12GB VRAM Ryzen 5 5600 32GB RAM DDR4

You are my sunshine My only sunshine You make me happy When skies are gray You'll never know, dear How much I love you Please don't take My sunshine away The other night, dear As I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you In my arms When I awoke, dear I was mistaken So I hung my head and cried You are my sunshine My only sunshine You make me happy When skies are gray You'll never know, dear How much I love you Please don't take My sunshine away

I cant even play.. every time i try and run My Career the game glitches out and the ball like keeps teleporting with the time staying still anyone know why this is

I have a ryzen 7 7800x3d and an rtx 4090 and I'm still having having crashing issues. I have tried recommended settings, lowering resolution, and running the game at as low settings as possible but still cant get past the bs unskippable my career intro. I've been having it crash going into the intro game, black screening just before it loads in, and even if i do get in I've had an issue with the ball teleporting back to the person who passed it, so whenever a team is in-bounding the ball goes back to the passer and is an out of bounds turnover. EDIT: I deleted the game and re-downloaded it, along with going to task manager and closing anything mod related like curse forge, voicemod, etc. and so far that has seemed to work.

I have not played 2k since I think 2k18, because the games were progressively getting worse. I felt some nostalgia the other day so I decided to nab 2k26. Boy oh boy... this game is so awful. Granted I will still play it some, to continue to get that nostalgia, but it is just so disappointing. This year apparently they made the decision that any online games are gonna be green or brick on the shooting timing. This is very annoying, especially playing online with latency and lag. It feels like shear luck. If you are just slightly late or early, you have a 0 percent chance of your shot going in. On the flip side, some players who don't have jobs or school and just play this game all day, have perfected their timing so that as long as they are decently open, they will never miss a shot. This problem is much worse than just 3 point shooting however... someone at the 2K design team slammed their head on their desk, got brain damage and then decided to make it mandatory that the shot meter be put on all shots, including layups and some dunks. Again when you are online with latency, and you get a randomized layup animation which they all have different timings on when you release the ball on your layup, a casual player feels helpless to actually make a shot. The menus are tedious to navigate. It feels like no one ever said no when designing the UI, because there are so many buttons and menus to get through. MyCareer and MyTeam and both very strange in that they each have like 8 different online game-modes, and I just don't understand why. There are like 6 different forms of MyCareer online matches and they don't explain what the difference is between them. In MyCareer, anytime you miss a shot, they lower your teammate grade for "bad shot selection". Even if it was a wide-open 3 and you just missed it. The new ally-oop system gives the dunker a random button to press in order to finish the dunk. This is really stupid because I got a lob thrown to me earlier. I was pressing A to call for the ball when they decided to lob it, and the button i needed to press was Y to finish the lob. They registered my call for ball as my attempt and I missed the dunk. When playing defense there is about a 50% chance that an offensive player will just slide past you like you are made of butter and you will be charged with a "defensive breakdown". I wish I could just play 2K16 again.

you can shoot over 5 guys with their hands up and it'll say "open"

Game is extremely buggy with the passing glitch where every time you pass the ball it goes right back to the player and makes it basically unplayable. if anyone knows how to fix this please let me know I've been trying to fix it for over 8 hours. EDIT: I got everything to work no crashes no black screens and especially no passing glitch. Use CTRL + Shift + Esc to open task manager and close anything mod related (EX: WeMod, VoiceMod, Thunderstore mod manager AKA Overwolf)

This game has to go cross-platform. Takes too long to get in a game. I'm not gonna buy the same game on console, and start my character all over again. Does not make any sense 2K. Please make game cross-platform and my review will be 5 stars.

getting a refund on ts dogshit ngl. same as last year and i want my money back

If you have a AMD Radeon RS 9070 XT, wait until they update their drivers cause this game doesn't even load up. Like at all. You'll load up shaders but after that. Crashes (Works now guys, get in there)

im hating js cause its 2k fuck ronnie and fuck mike wang

This is my first time switching from playing on PS5 to the PC version of NBA 2K, and I’m honestly impressed. The transition was smoother than I expected — the gameplay feels fluid, the graphics are sharp, and the overall performance is excellent. Even though I occasionally get a “VRAM not sufficient” warning and experience minor instability here and there, it hasn’t really affected my enjoyment. Matches load quickly, animations are responsive, and the higher level of customization on PC makes the experience even better than what I was used to on console. Overall, I’m very happy with the move to PC. The combination of smooth performance, great visuals, and the flexibility to tweak settings exactly how I want has completely won me over. I’ve already decided I’m going to sink a lot of hours into this game — consider me officially hooked

WOW! Huge surprise so far! runnig smooth and gamplay is super fun! Online lobbys are empty so far but i guess it can be turning point for 2k series on PC!

great game, the ai players could use some work and defense sucks

overall best 2k in the best couple years, only down side is that it crashes to frequently but other than that its still pretty fun

Somehow called while trying to foul in the late game. Meanwhile I had 0 timeouts & it gave me excessive timeouts which allows them a free throw. Garbage

As someone who doesn't play online modes often, there's enough for me to do. However, they need to add cross play to the Steam release, as it is extremely difficult (as always) to find an online game in MyTeam. Especially when challenges require you to do so. Waiting 20+ minutes to MAYBE get into an All-Star Teamup game is ridiculous, even in pre-release.

Works good on steam deck. probably the best 2K game we'll get for years. this one is a shooters/playmakers wet dream.

good game. reminds me of nba 2k25. great pick up if you like to casually play steam games.
