First patch has been announced for Monday. I doubt it will fix everything but, as I stated earlier, NBA2K20 has been patched at least 5 times in a month.  It was almost as bad at launch as this one (2K is notorious for putting out NBA in an unfinished state) and is totally fine now.  If they follow the same pattern, I would expect this game to be totally fixed within a month.

You can shit on the overall bad business practice that this is but the whole industry now does this.  I once sent EA Sports a nasty email about how bad one Madden launch was and the developer responded letting me know that there are more hours of testing done in the first hour after launch then the full development cycle.  Aside from an open beta there is no way to simulate tens of thousands of people all hitting the server at once, not to mention digging into game aspects that have been quality checked by 4-5 people for a few hours each.

It’s not an excuse, it’s just the way it is.

Anyway, I got to play some more.  Overall I think the things that need instant fixes are visual bugs (I’ve seen nothing like the YouTube worst of videos when playing for what it’s worth), and some stability enhancements.  Normal shit.  Some of the character models need a massive touch up as well.

The MyPlayer mode online is still very good once you get your toon to look how you want.  Since this is the primary mode I play - not sure why it was described as a side mode - I’m not regretting my purchase.
