I’m an older player and this showed my generation is being phased out. I’m a franchise mode guy. I didn’t hear anything about that in this video unless I missed it. Most, if not all of the game changes are made with the online community in mind. I’m an offline player. I just resigned myself to the belief that I won’t be able to play 2K anymore. I’m not part of the group that makes them rich, so they focus on us.
Thank you. I'm 36. So been playing since the original. When we had house parties and no online play. Standard game play matters the most to me. To many modes take aways from the overall gameplay
@@horizon3_3_3yes, but 2k are so slack with changing it. They have made trent jr have the same hair since 21 even though he’s changed his hair irl almost 3 times since then
@TruthSpeaker4, if you can’t play.. Just say that. I’m an avid 2k gambler. Me and the homies get together once a week and play $20 games on Hall Of Fame with 7 minute quarters. Real Player % is forbidden as is the 2k camera
The game itself looks actually good I played 2K24 on the PS5 and it was not bad too. Sometimes the shotmeter was not accurate but it was okay. The reason I don't want to play it anymore is the space it takes on your harddisk (180 GB). In my opinion ridiculous and unnecessary because an average game takes between the 30 and 60 GB maximum ( Madden, NCAA 25 for example). Even open world games with a big map took less space. I would not buy an extra memorycard from around €150 to build in only to play NBA 2K25 !!
Bro is a fan of the 2k camera (which is actually the NBA Live camera) and then he said he doesn’t use the shot meter? Thats craziness, definitely gotta be a PlayStation only type of dude. In his defense, I do wish NBA Live would come back so 2k would have some actual competition. Competition brings about greatness
My biggest take aways are the shooting and dribbling mechanics. It's different, but I like it. It'll take some getting used to but I'm glad we have my court again so I don't have to go all the way to team practice to get the mechanics down. I just got the game a few days ago but haven't really been able to really play it because of work, not only that but I'm out of town right now and didn't bring my console. When I get back I'm really gonna get my players dribbling attribute up and focus more on that and the shot timing. What I have a hard time getting used to tho, is the new shit meters. Hopefully we get the previous ones back because there are times I get greens back to back but then all of a sudden I'm missing shots left and right. But it may be because I just changed my shot animation. Tim hardaway jrs shot is my go to but I seen one that has a better all around grade so I think I'll try that one instead.
It’s sad that we’ve gotten to this point but I’m right there with you. That park $h!t is flooded with cheaters and pay to win players. And nobody truly cares about the MyTeam BS that has become a parasite to sports games. And for the love of fun, when are we going to get an actual All Star Weekend mode? We should be able to access a dunk contest, three point contest, skills challenge, and All Star game from the home menu. And one thing that really grinds my gears is the fact that none of these sports games have integrated music streaming services! We should be able to make our own custom soundtracks like we used to be able to do on the first Xbox and the PS3! Especially since it’s not pirated because we’re paying for whatever streaming service we use🤷🏾♂️ But yeah that’s my two cents, not sure I can buy anything with it though🤣
The rest of the game is useless You got cheesers in the park My team is tedious , Play now and blacktop are always aight and then you have my career that cost to play . You literally have to break the bank to play an already 100$ game Take 2 Interactive be tweakin fr
More story line and meaningful moments in my career. Old badge system. Less reliance on micro transactions, a thought out theme like the old school games (example: the jay z year of 2k where the whole of the game felt like it played into the hip hop theme) a game that actually has a skill gap and each archetype plays completely different, not just everyone shooting 3s at all times. An option for offline players, more meaningful events that aren’t just double rep. More animations that aren’t locked behind a paywall. Literally everything this game isn’t
Rhythm shooting will be patch out of the game in a week. The people that learn it and get good at it will be punished by the masses who don’t wanna adapt.
Bought 24 annnnnd im straight on this one lol they literally aren’t adding anything new. “High risk” shooting is nothing new. It sounds the same as turning the meter off. You’ve been able to pick your release cue. I’m supposed to be excited because KD looks skinny in game now??? And OMG everyone has signature skills now how original! But wait what did we get last year…?
Looked like a shot fake, probably just the camera angle. How they bring their hand near the ball and fake the shooting chance sometimes gets the defender jumping
7:40 I'm guessing we are getting the same MyNBA as 2K24. And wait a second. * means just for next gen 2K25? I thought PC is getting next gen and there won't be current gen.
You can literally shot cancel out of hop jumpers initiated using RS since forever its not a new thing?? all you do is not let the animation play out hold turbo and run out of it
It’s basically the same 2k since 2018 bruh are y’all blind or what?lol and btw that’s the last time i bought a 2k game lmao and the last decent nba 2k was 2k16 and y’all have to admit it
Everyone including famous creators and media personalities are a bunch of yes men! 2K claims that everyone has their own signature shot but yet they can't even get Curry real-life jumpshot correct. But they dont wanna tell them that so, "They don't burn bridges with them or offend them!"
Madden same game mlb same game. Yet 2k players act like they getting robbed when all sports are the same like there's only so little that can be changed
Lies, MLB The Show has gotten better each year. Madden has been azz for well over a decade. 2K doesn’t make big changes because we keep buying it and there’s no competition. The new Top Spin is nothing like its predecessor, it is fire. NHL is fire and definitely way better than the previous year. UFC greatly improved over its predecessor but it can stand more improvements (grappling and ground game is still entirely too complex but somehow is still not complex enough). WWE 2K24, though a fake sport, is better than 2K23. I just wish they’d get rid of the controls and take it back to the Here Comes The Pain days. The upcoming Undisputed boxing game seems to be on the path to be a worthy successor to the Fight Night series… But I do somewhat agree with you in the sense that I feel like no sports game should come got every year. They should do full releases every other year, if not every 3 years to allow for deeper development and improvements. They could then simply update the rosters and some of the graphical aspects each year for the price of DLC (maybe $30-$35 for the DLC). But like my drunk uncle says, you can wish in one hand and $#it in the other, but we all know which one will fulfilled the quickest 🤣
@@BJWR999 I agree. 2K, EA, and Rockstar are the greediest gaming companies of all time. It wouldn’t hurt them to show some love to their fan base every once in a while!

We will NEVER see that again🥹 Instead we’ll get $h!T like GTA V the ultra remaster in 8k for the PS6 and Xbox 720😒

The court looks too big. Part of what is amazing about the NBA is their ability to create space with such small space. 10 people on the court with dudes from 6'0" to 7'0"+ there isnt much room to navigate to the rim
One of the biggest problems with the last few 2ks has been the fact that players are like 8 feet tall. People like Bam’s feet are like 3 inches off the ground when they hang on the rim. Realistic sizes in proportion to the court is how it should be
It looks a whole lot better. They need to add celebrations or taunts that can lead to techs or team moral going up or down

I need them to bring back high school, to college or g league.
Really hope they have the Olympic teams!
They definitely have done this before
I hope they fix the "missing a 2 foot layup" glitch.

ngl like the shot meter
stopped using it a while ago but still, looks nicer than any other meter before x)
Any news on the new era? Its all I care about
Fix the broadcast camera view and make it like it used to be back in the day
Steph at 5:55 definitely double dribbles. I know that it's a video game, and I know they've gotta have some way to shot cancel, but damn
That’s actually more real life than you know! And don’t get me started on carrying the ball😂
just the angle, he doesn’t
that shot cancel is a travel
shot cancelling was on 2k18 and I remember doing it on 2k20 too
I never understood people that use the shot meter. I have never played a basketball game where you actually needed it.
But, Its pretty easy to understand.
shot cancel would be so broken cus if you have seen the trae young clip where its literally a travel with like 5 steps
I been searching for pac for so long and I finally found him again
The only thing I want is for players to feel like they have real weight and not skating around.
Been waiting on your breakdown bro u make me feel good about buying it this year by the way you point out the right changes 🙏🏾💪🏽💪🏽🙏🏾
I came here because the shot meter is hard on 2k25 on all releases
Hope to GOD that Learn 2K and the game modes from it is for the Old Gen Consoles as well please GOD and 2K please 🏆🐐🐐🎯🙏❤

Thank u I hate shot meter I’m old school been playing basketball games sense Double dribble

2k22 3.0 🔥🔥🔥
Will 2k25 worth it? Bcs I have 2k24 and not money to waste
I’ll stick to 2k24 and wait till 2k25 goes for 2.99 on the ps store.
The fact that they just refuse to give us real gameplay is ridiculous. Who gaf about cinematics.
Put respect on my Pj, Washington man. They know Paul George didn’t create that move. You know got d well it was Pj Washington with his arms across.
bet they gona nerf the defense like they did when 22 was released lol
Can have more shoes options please 🙏🏾
How much $ 2k did pay u?? 😂
deadass idgaf about ds play now games we all know its different in park and different attributes
Nba 2k25 is not the same game as nba 2k24
Can you change the meter?

Like I said this 2k25 shot meter is kinda exactly like nba live shot meter
No that last part has been apart of game they probably just tweeked in a lil bit with the step backs and shit
My grandma: Don't believe that shi#&()/.😂
They need to bring back 2k22 play with friends
2k22 All star team up
all this sounds nice but good lord can you imagine what this game will do to our controllers? we're gonna get stick drift in 2 fucking months 😂😂
lol I want that low risk high reward😂
5:34 is a litteral travel, you cannot pick up the ball with both hands, then continue to dribble again. That's traveling.
Looked like a shot fake, probably just the camera angle. How they bring their hand near the ball and fake the shooting chance sometimes gets the defender jumping
I’m here the shot meter sucks in nba 2k25 it’s much harder
The cancel shot was already a thing
7:40
