After endlessly trying to get this game to work, it just wouldn't. My save games would ALWAYS be corrupted. I think their server-side save system or whatever it's doing was just a terrible idea. It plain doesn't work. Everything else on my XB1 works just fine. Again, I love the game it simulates once your playing, everything else is just garbage.
Since I bought it online via the Xbox Store on my XB1, I was actually able to convince MS to give me a refund. Took a day and a half chatting with CS and exchanging emails, but being polite, but firm about how broken this game was worked for me. So if you bought it straight from the Xbox store, try and get your money back. I did.
Every time I start a career, get drafted and play a game or two; then come back later, I get this "myplayer data corrupted. Would you like to delete the file" which is the only option and I lose all my progress and VC. I have to start all over, watch all the crappy cut scenes that you can't skip (annoying BTW 2K, I rather watch a loading screen. Give us a choice to skip, especially if it's our 5th time watching it.)
The game NBA 2k14 simulates is great, no question. The rest? absolutely atrocious. Crappy character editor, archaic and monstrously un-intuitive menu system. Add on top of that crappy servers and file management system that seems to corrupt data and you have a mess. I've yet to have a save game file not be corrupt. (Don't blame my XB1, every other game and save is working fine.) Fix this mess 2k or it's the last dime you'll see from me. Believe it!
I posted this to the NBA 2k site. I don't think it was overly offensive. I think it was fair and on point. No matter, it was deleted in seconds.
The game is good, meaning the basketball game it simulates. The menu system is absolute garbage. The character editor is garbage. It is not a well laid out game at all. You have to dig to find the things you want.
"Also in the interview, Silva said Microsoft's decision to launch the Halo series as a console-exclusive, with ports of the original and Halo 2 coming later, "hurt" the brand overall."
