If you like games for a challenge this isn’t the game for you. The cpu is just so bad that it’s impossible to set yourself up for a down 2 points and a 3 point buzzer beater. The cpu needs to be remodeled to just make more shots. No cpu or nba player should miss 3 wide open fastbreak layups. Maybe the system should be that if a cpu is shooting a wide open shot it should always go in to make the game actually challenging. Also, sometimes the game will force you to play defense even if you let off the defense button. It will force steals, blocks and insane defense. ### 4/5 — Great game! But a couple things…. *2022-11-14, version 2.0.2* Hello! My name is Matthew I am 14 years old and I live in Utah. This game is very great! I love it and I know that this game has a lot of potential! Although I do have a couple things that I would like to suggest. Could you guys add different difficulties? Sometimes when I play playoffs mode I feel like the game is way too easy and the game gets a little boring after a while. This would make he game a lot better because it is a little more challenging. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, in NBA 2K they have different difficulties. Such as rookie, pro, superstar, All Star, Hall of Fame, etc. So if you could add that it would be great. Thanks! Also, in the multiplayer mode, you are only able to simulate the game. You guys should put in a way where you can actually play against an apponent live in the moment. That’s all, thanks! **Developer response:** [Com2uS] We are loving these! 😆 Thank you for the suggestions. We will make sure to send those over to our dev team. Let's wait to see if those get applied to the game! ### 4/5 — Good game just one thing *2022-10-01, version 1.9.0* It’s a really good game, it’s fun, but a lot of times it’s boring because you can’t change the difficulty when your in rookie 1, rookie 1 is really easy and it gets repetitive to blow out teams over and over for 82 games. So I wish you could make the difficulty harder or maybe sim the seasons, I don’t know. I just think it’s kind of boring to blow every team out for 82 games until you can have harder opponents, so I think you should be able to increase difficulty, this would make the game amazing. ### 5/5 — For the devs *2022-08-01, version 1.8.0* This game is top level great game and all but it has some hood parts and bad parts about it. Well the dunks are the same and boring me and the community would love it if you all would add more dunk animations that would make the game a lot cooler. Second of all the when I grind I barely get any rewards it’s hard for me to get better players or coins. That’s all I have great game ovr. ### 4/5 — Unable to play *2022-07-17, version 1.8.0* Hi, first of all this is a great game. I’ve been plying it for months now I believe. But earlier, after playing the game for a while, it crashed and whenever I try to start the game, it gets stuck on the screen that says “checking the file info… please wait for a moment” and tells me to check network connection. My wifi is totally fine. So now I can’t play the game anymore. Please help me fix this issue, thanks! ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-07-13, version 1.8.0* Keep doing your thing guys/gals, this game is getting better and Bette by the day. I play both NBA now and MLB9 innings and the NBA Now is catching up w MLB as far as how great it is. The only thing I would love to see is a revamp of the rosters. A great thing abut MLB is you can have 2 roster spots for non-team players and it really helps you round out your team and compete if you have a team who as a horrible 2B but I can get Jose Altuve and he makes my team much better me doesn't count towards you S deck. Also would love to have the bench players be whatever position’s you want. If I want to carry 5 centers and 3 point guards, we could do it. Thanks for the great games and keep up the work!! **Developer response:** [Com2uS] Thank you for your 5-star review! ⭐ We're happy to hear that you are enjoying the game. We hope you can continue to enjoy our game. ### 5/5 — Review *2022-04-20, version 1.5.0* Overall, this game is great, with great gameplay, 0 ads ( unless you watch for rewards) and weekly updates on the game. However, when it comes to the rewards aspect of the game, I have to say you guys need some improvement there. Like 1 of the challenges is to get 1 lvl 20 player, and the reward you would think should be at the very least, a golden player pack or something like that. I mean, that’s a hard feat that takes a lot of time and effort to do, just try making the rewards more worth it. Thanks for your time and good luck! ### 5/5 — My review *2022-04-17, version 1.4.1* Hey there! First off I love the game, it reminds me of a more simpler but cleaner version of nba2k. I’ve had the game for months now but there’s one thing I’m really wanting the game to add in the future And that thing is a my career game mode. I know it’s in a lot of other games, but to me adding a my career mode where you can just get drafted to a team and improve as you go on is cool especially for a mobile game. Regardless, the games great, but more game modes like a my career mode would be dope! ### 4/5 — 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 *2022-04-06, version 1.4.1* I have been playing the game for a week now and it’s pretty fun. The game is smooth and doesn’t lag. The only thing I have a problem with is the difficulty. I am not sure if there is a way to change it but i have not found it; and u think that option would me the game 10x better. Good game tho why better than NBA LIVE😂 ### 5/5 — Good game but needs more sigs *2022-04-06, version 1.4.1* I think the game is amazing, thats why imma keep this short. I’ve been waiting for a game as fun as this one but what I really want is.. more ankle breakers.. like I love the way when u break ankles and drive in to get a contact dunk it looks so good. I just want new crossovers and ankle breakers and I will definitely spend money here ### 4/5 — Good game just needs better rewards *2022-03-23, version 1.4.0* This game is actually a really fun experience, I love the gameplay, but the big downfall is that I can play this game for 2-3 hours a day and get next to nothing from it, I feel like if I play 20 seasons games I should at least get a gold from it rather than having to play a entire 82 game season and playoffs, overall a good game just wish it felt more rewarding ### 5/5 — Good but has a couple flaws *2022-02-16, version 1.3.0* This game is phenomenal but of course has its own problems. The camera can be very annoying and hard to play with because it can be distracting. I wish you can change the angle not just zooming in or out. This games graphics are alright and could be better but is pretty ok. This game is WAY TO EASY to beat the league and it is very grindy. And finally something I wish they would add is if you break a record like wilt chamberlains 100 point game you get a reward or something. Other than that really good game and I would recommend. **Developer response:** [Com2uS] We appreciate the time you took to leave us a review. 👍 We are here to take in all your concerns.

So I complete the survey and received nothing. The game is overall ok, but if y’all gone lie about giving out rewards this no more than a 1 star and the update honestly not that great. Should be more ways to obtain better cards like increase the odds on opening packs because they straight trash. Lower prices on signing new players for those who take the grind route over spending. But the main problem is if you gone advertise something to give out free rewards after completion just be truthful about it. And give players what they deserve. ### 2/5 — Sad Just Sad Waisted Money and Time *2024-09-01* I must say my prior review is not showing. It was regarding the grind to get the tickets to draft and after 150 standard tickets or 15 premium tickets you get nothing! My review today is due to the game closing. I have spent more money than I can track upgrading and buying the right players and now it is my understanding that the game is closing. I am sad but not shocked. I knew it would close one day once I saw the no update on the UI. The worst part is that I heard a new NBA Now 25 is coming out. So now we have to start all over. I will not spend a dime to upgrade any game ever again! DOING HURTS ALL PEOPLE PLAYING AND THE INTEGRITY OF GAME MAKERS AROUND THE WORLD 🌎 MAKE IT RIGHT GUYS. It not that difficult to transfer your users to a different design. Unless you don’t have access and are locked out. I hope you can make this right. It really surpasses a lot of games! Don’t drop the ball guys. ### 2/5 — Update is trash *2023-01-19, version 2.2.0* This game was pretty great before i used to play it daily until they updated it, some things in the update are cool the the whole interface change and organization but i gotta say the did ruin the regular season and took all of the fun out of it because most of the time when im playing it im on the go and dont have time to play a full game. I was literally playing the game a few days before update thinking to myself “man its cool that you can just simulate whole seasons and basically just play gm building line ups” thats the main thing i loved about this game and the whole reason i started playing this and stopped playing nba 2k mobile but now you have to play every full game throughout the whole season in each difficulty to unlock delegation which really defeats the purpose in my opinion. Overall before I would’ve given this game a 4- maybe 5 star rating but now i gotta say its about a 3, love the new look of the game but please bring back full delegation and give us the option to play all 4 quarters or not Sincerely the gamers ### 2/5 — I like it but 2 stars for one reason. *2021-10-20, version 1.0.1* I basically put 2 stars because of the game making you play with your phone basically in one way I’ve played nba live moblie and it’s trash now but if this game had the same thing like where you can play it with your phone sideways it’d be five stars and honestly it makes no sense why the button layout is like that because my thumbs can’t play that way so please developers fix this annoying problem and make this game playable while having your phone turned sideways. Update review: defense is sloppy and you’ll never get a single block while the AI makes everything even if you constantly contest the shot or dunk it doesn’t matter this game has officially ruined its self because of its stupid game mechanics. Also I ain’t bothering to play this crap game anymore. **Developer response:** [Com2uS] We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed, and we appreciate your candid feedback. 🥺 We hope that our future updates and events will improve the game for you. Thank you for your patience and understanding! ### 3/5 — Good but some flaws *2022-12-30, version 2.1.1* I had a good team with a 100% win rate, but I reached hall of fame 1 and the game just upped everything by so much. I understand that it’ll get harder, but the game doesn’t give enough to develop your team from a 100 overall straight to 115 or 116 overall. The game makes you pay for too much, it’s so close to being pay to win. The packs you get from winning or missions give almost nothing, the cards are just down awful most the time, I could open a golden pack and get a 73 overall player, and that won’t help me at all, I feel like getting better rewards as the players overall rises would make everything so much better. Lastly combining cards, when it used to be free I was enjoying the game so much but now I have to pay!?!? I just don’t that’s fair to take away that part of the game. **Developer response:** [Com2uS] We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed, and we appreciate your candid feedback. 🥺 We hope that our future updates and events will improve the game for you. Thank you for your patience and understanding! ### 3/5 — Starting screen *2022-02-23, version 1.3.0* I love everything about this game to be honest and it would be a 5 star however for 3 days I have been unable to get past the starting screen which says waiting with a spinning basketball and won’t go past that. I have tried deleting and reinstalling.. nothings working and I’m missing you on my daily’s. That stuff is important as I put real effort into this game! Thanks! ### 3/5 — Really fun and great game but *2021-10-31, version 1.0.1* The conditioning part is what irks me the most. If I didn’t have to pay for conditioning cards or have my reserve players get in so my main starts can regain only a few condition, it’d be 5 stars. Wish it was like MLB 9 Innings where it regenerates after a while. Feels like a cash grab since I keep seeing buy more conditioning cards which is really disappointing giving the fact how long I’ve been playing 9 Inning and was looking forward to this game. ### 4/5 — Great game! Could use a few tweaks though *2023-02-17, version 2.2.0* Great game but needs fixing – players when throwing in is kinda broken, it always ends up just being sent to the point guard which is an easy three which your defense can’t block – players don’t run to the hoop after the shot is taken which makes it an easy turn over every time – when you switch players on defense the controls don’t stay the same so you lose any chance of keeping up with your opposing opponent. - also I’m not a huge fan of the new three minutes every quarter play, I wish the old option still existed to only played three minutes in the fourth quarter Great game though! Keep it up! The graphics are amazing and I love the new update!! You guys truly did a phenomenal job!😁 **Developer response:** [Com2uS] We appreciate the time you took to leave us a review. 👍 We are here to take in all your suggestions.

Keep playing our game and stay tuned for more! ### 4/5 — Great game! *2023-01-25, version 2.2.0* Feel lucky to have found this gem because it truly is quite entertaining, the manual gameplay is surprisingly good for the simplistic play style of it all. Yet the team building process, from the player cards to the leveling system, makes you wanna grind to build that perfect team and can be quite rewarding. However the new update is a bit of a setback imo. Biggest problem being the regular season change up. What was nice about the old version was having the option to simulate, play 3 minutes, or 12 minutes total. I rarely ever would use the 12 minute option because it really draws out the gameplay and can be tedious. But now to play my shortest time option is 12 minutes, making the regular season feel more like a chore rather than a game. Please bring back the 3 minute game time option!!! I admit it’s hard keeping interest in this great app if I’m forced to play a 12 minute game each time around. Fixing that would make this a 5 star game!! **Developer response:** [Com2uS] We appreciate the time you took to leave us a review. 🙂 We're sorry for the frustration you've been experiencing with the game. We will continue to do our best to try to provide a better gaming experience for all. Thank you for your patience and understanding. ### 4/5 — Extremely good. *2022-12-30, version 2.1.1* I have been playing this game for about a year now and I had nothing but positive thoughts about it. Although the animation isn’t the best, It’ll evolve over time. This is an overall great company and I’d suggest it to all of you new comers. You could maybe malice it easier to get diamond players. I do understand that you don’t want to make it too easy as well. Thanks! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The best game ever how ever *2023-03-05* The only problem I have with this game is that late 2022 my account got deleted. I do. Not know why but it might have been my phone but the best graphics ever🤌. And I love that you can play your friends but the problem with that is that you can’t play a full game or do a five minute half but one of the best games ever and I love how you can make your own team so just little problems but I’ll still play it if you don’t change it because it’s just little problems **Developer response:** [Com2uS] Oh no! 😟 We can give it a double check for you so please send us a message over to our support team @ https://customer.withhive.com/ask ! ### 5/5 — This is a very good game! *2023-02-04, version 2.2.0* I give this app 5 out of 5 stars because the app allows you to pick your team, get players cards, and have so much fun without any ads or distractions. You can also leave your match without losing any record! I recommend this game. ### 5/5 — Pretty good *2023-01-22, version 2.2.0* Needs some polish but I love all the stats and the card art it’s a refreshing game to play left this after NBA 2k just doesn’t offer anything different just better graphics ? This just needs relay voice and events and it will bring in more users interface is great and all the equipment and coaches and upgrading cards is awesome but they have to put backcourt violation on and maybe offer a landscape for players who don’t like one hand other then that it’s a good game ### 5/5 — When is commentary coming to the game *2023-01-19, version 2.2.0* Commentary it still say coming soon I would love to see it when the game not a lot of nba titles have a have it it would be cool to see it in the game and you add something there we can change the nba jerseys I have not seen that in any nba mobile game and we get more more cross over moves I would love to see more of them in the game ### 5/5 — I love this game so much *2023-01-15, version 2.1.1* I love this game so much that I’m gonna play every day and I really want you guys to give me LaMelo Ball or a Ja mordant card but I can shoot you have court with Kyrie Irving I guess you have courts with everybody does the best game every five star soon as you guys see this please give me LaMelo Ball and Ja Morant I like both of them please they’re my favorite player so please give me them cards when you see this if you guys control the packs please give me these cards please thank you but anyway I love this game is the best game ever bye💸💸💴💴💴💵💵👍🏾👍🏾👏🏿👏🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿🦾🦾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🤟🏿👍🏾🧠 **Developer response:** [Com2uS] Your review just made our day! 🥰 We hope you continue to enjoy playing the game and we will always try our best to bring you the best gaming experience out there! ### 5/5 — Player extension *2022-12-12, version 2.1.0* Why does it fail? Weird and unnecessary that you guys would add this feature. we’re lucky enough to find a card for a specific player to level up. oh wait a minute we cant because of a stupid failed extension please change it. Also the player combine make it to where the user can use gold coins to pick a specific player instead of guessing which card to flip… also annoying. Thanks ### 5/5 — Great Game Main Menu Screen Completely Black Can’t Play *2022-11-13, version 2.0.2* Dear Com2US Gaming Development Company. I just wanted to say thanks for making an amazing game. It's very complex and exciting. However, I've noticed for a few days now every time I try to log in to the game and it loads all the data and goes to the main menu screen it goes completely black and I can't play. I just wanted to say are you guys planning on doing any important maintenance on the game any time soon? To everyone at Com2US Gaming Development have a great afternoon. Bye. ### 5/5 — Players *2022-10-31, version 2.0.2* I really like this game but sometimes when I try to level up a player, like Kd, it takes your money and fails. And the rewards kind of stink sometimes and it’s super hard to get mostly anything. But I would get it again because it’s such a great game. ### 5/5 — Addition please *2022-10-08, version 1.9.0* The game is fun but when I add three 70 overall players I get a 60 overall player. In my opinion I think you should add the players overall together to get a player. Also let us pick the jersey for the game and let us make custom jerseys in the game. And one last thing let us customize arenas and name the arenas also let us customize the teams and can you add a new tab called nba eras. ### 5/5 — Suggestions, Bugs 😌 *2022-09-21, version 1.9.0* This game is very fun, the characters are on point, my suggestions are to add Night Night When Stephen Curry hits a three, and I find it weird that Russell Westbrook is scoring 63 PPG (3x as many as Lebron James) and if it’s possible add a bit of commentating and some fans with jerseys. Your game is very fun, but can the prizes for the three point challenge and the dunk challenge be better, every time I lose it says I lost getting a gold card. But every time I win, it gives me consumables, Much love to the game🏀✌️🎮 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
