NBA Review 2K18

Basketball is not the biggest and most popular sport compared to football, and the same goes for video games where the FIFA series beats any other sport despite 2K Sports's great efforts in recent years to push the NBA 2K to new limits and provide further improvements and patterns The various games of dipping the player in a sporting experience feel the ambience of the NBA and the intense competition that it embraces among some of the world's top valuable athletes.

NBA 2K18 continues the journey from the area where the last part stood where the atmosphere of the stadiums and crowds that interact with the madness, especially if the result is close in the last seconds and the level of distinctive drawing, which makes it one of the best sports in terms of appearance, the method of play at first glance and looks like not Is changing a lot, but the more the player plays more games the more changes he notices in handling the ball quickly or the moves of the players based on his strategy, or even the new payment system followed, which makes scoring points from any area within the stadium more Accuracy depending on the skill of the player and waiting for the right time to pay.

The gameplay itself did not see radical changes, but some improvements that increased the artificial intelligence of the players to move better during the defense and the ease of transition between any player to intercept a counterattack or disable the play for a few seconds, but on the offensive level, players can end the attacks better through The scrolling feature, which allows pressing a button to force one of your players to move forward behind the defenders and then pass the ball to him at the right moment to end the attack successfully, all these changes play a prominent role in playing against teams controlled by artificial intelligence, Nafsat and other players face it becomes rather random in the difficulty of chasing the player who holds the ball or stop it correctly without causing a mistake, and it takes a long training period so that the user already has control over the team, especially new players who do not come in the sport of their priorities .

In the NBA 2K18 I felt that every element in its right place, whether the way players move and bounce from the defense attack or the method of moving the ball in a longitudinal and accidental way to create a suitable opportunity, even models and players profiles - despite neglect facial expressions and eye movement and hair design for a group of the most famous stars of the game - Add The ability to spoil the attacks with extreme accuracy if the player can adjust the timing of the eye contact with the ball of the earth is in the possession of the opponent to attack or wait in defense until the opponent thinks that he is about to register and then object to the ball at the right moment to change the situation for your team without even cause In error or rm The game looks accurate in all its elements and is more realistic than any other title whether you play against AI or against real people.

Fortunately, the title did not only care about the way the game was played and the transfer of the American league atmosphere, away from the style of play. NBA 2K18 offers a great way to broadcast the games as if you were watching a space station from the pre-match shows and meetings with sports analysts like retired player Shaquille O'Neal "To the exclusive meetings with the real players and the style of suspension is dazzling and difficult to differentiate between the real games and those moments that interspersed the exciting games when the coach requires time to talk to his players and urged them to make more effort to win.

The player design system is easier than previous versions, allowing the player to choose from the most model of facial features and after stability on the final form, the player will not be able to modify the appearance more accurately, for example, FIFA games, but in contrast the game provides the ability to transfer the features of your face The real player of the design by the application of the smartphone, an excellent way to get each player a personality design is unique and I do not recommend that high hopes on that part in the inability of the application to transfer the features in a completely correct manner.

MyCareer is the first goal for those looking for an exciting story and starting out on the path of stardom from its beginnings. The usual focus is on the story of a young player moving from playing in the alleys and slums to the professional league by accident. Playing in the most powerful basketball league in the world needs only a There is a shortage of players in one of the teams to join the team immediately and after a short period of time you will find yourself a player in the formation, but the difference here is that no matter how bad your performance or weak abilities will continue to reserve your place in the team continuously without any problem, unlike the stage of the Journey in the game FIFA 17, which requires the player to practice Seriously and gain greater experience to ensure basic play in every game.
The story here is highly anticipated, interspersed with a series of cinematic scenes with coaches, business agents and your girlfriend staying with you in the same house. Most of these scenes were boring and there was no real purpose except to waste time, even the same events in terms of writing and dialogues between characters, On the other side was the "Neighborhood", an open world area where players can roam freely, visit different places to meet street players or go to the gym to get stronger muscles, but most of these activities require a virtual currency to be touched. By real money, the use of real money has been an essential part of the latest series games, and here it shows more clearly than before.

On the other hand, I enjoyed the MyTeam style, which gave me the opportunity to build my dream team and to go through a series of challenges and group competitions across the net or against AI. This style depends on a range of players' cards with different abilities and capabilities and the player has the best combination for the various challenges. In a way similar to the FIFA Ultimate stage where the player gets different packages against his competition and challenges, including new players and other elements such as player contracts.

At MyTeam you can play limitless matches with different game modes, such as Domination, which allows you to meet the American professional league teams, develop Pack and Playoffs, select a group of players randomly, and try to build the best formation to compete against different teams and get Rewarding.

MyGM has developed the ability to assume the role of coach of your favorite team and not only to manage the team only and the formation of formations and win the games, but also includes all the financial and administrative disciplines, and despite the attempt to provide a story in this distinctive style similar to MyCareer, The MyLeague mode allows the player to compete with his favorite team and allow him to design the entire league in the way he prefers, including individual and group competitions over the net.

Final Evaluation

The NBA 2K18 offers very challenging gameplay and challenges that need to be dealt with for a long time. Whether you prefer to play individually or collectively, you will always find a new challenge waiting for you, a burning atmosphere in every game you play and great improvements in style. It is flawed by the superficial stories it has provided and the expressions of the players that have nothing to do with what is happening on the pitch.
