From what I can tell I am 3 - 2. With wins against the Spurs, Clippers, and Raptors. My two losses coming at the hands of OKC and Portland.
I have not been blown out in any game' which I think is a good sign.
i don't know how many of those are 2k20 but I would have to guess 2k22 is going to SIM totally different. But it should be fun regardless.
I doubt it'll be different, maybe only slightly. There's a reason 2k gets so much **** for pumping out the same game, for merely a roster update.
Ratings will be slightly different is all. Buzz will get a bunch if decent bumps, though

didn't think about next gen console stuff. i only thought about PC since that's what i'm running on. that could be different then. it's crazy that they haven't released footage yet.

PC should be the same game but just with roster updates. I was reading that PC still isn’t making the switch to next gen for 2k22 which is pretty dumb

that's understandable, which sucks. while it was dumb, i used my stimulus to finally get a gaming PC, as i'm sure a lot of people did. it would serve them to update and switch to next gen capabilities.
2k always gets a horrid rating on STEAM, which is why i wouldn't buy it if not for BAF.
then that makes sense why it'd be different for you on console compared to us on PC

Yeah and gaming PC’s are supposed to be more powerful than next gen systems so I’m not sure why they’re not making the switch yet. I guess next year they will perhaps
2K19,2k20,2K21 current gen were basically the same games with roster updates and I felt robbed every time I copped them
Next gen is the first 2k that felt drastically different for me in years. The graphics, dribbling and defense especially were finally upgraded massively. Fk current gen
