![]() I’ll never understand why people shill for companies instead of supporting their fellow gamers, but that’s exactly what remarks like that are doing. They basically boil down to saying that people are expecting too much if they want the servers around indefinitely, that they need to move on, and that the newer games are better anyway. As such, in addressing this issue, I need to address those remarks. While there is frustration and outrage, there has also been – predictability – pushback on the complaints. In the years that followed, however, we lost Badge upgrades, customisation options, and the story. At first, it was just cosmetic items and VC purchases fair enough, though it was a shame that we needed online support just to equip an armband. This is the culmination of several years of M圜AREER losing features and functionality as an offline mode. M圜AREER is no longer available in NBA 2K20 in any form. It isn’t just a matter of limited functionality or a barebones version of the mode as in previous games, either. In short, gamers are discovering that in the wake of the NBA 2K20 servers being shut down, M圜AREER is no longer playable. M圜AREER is the big one though, and the shutdown of the NBA 2K20 servers has exposed a troubling approach. Even primarily offline moves can be affected, if your save file utilised any online content when it was created. Now that there’s a larger focus on the connected experience and live service content, server shutdowns are making major modes inaccessible. ![]() It was still a blow, but the games were largely intact. It used to be that we’d lose the ability to set up online games, use the in-game file sharing functionality, and receive any official roster updates. The problem is that over the years, bigger chunks of the game are disappearing when online support ends. As unfortunate as it is, it’s understandable given the way that the userbase moves on. These Terms of Service aren’t hidden – beyond the fact that many of us never read the EULA in full, of course – and if you’ve been playing the NBA 2K series for some time, you’re familiar with the drill. ![]() 2K originally guaranteed 18 months of online support for all of its titles, before extending that period to 27 months following the deactivation and reactivation of NBA 2K14’s servers. Of course, this isn’t anything new for the series. On December 31st, the NBA 2K20 servers were shut down as scheduled. This week, I’m tipping things off with some thoughts on the NBA 2K20 servers being shut down, and the bigger picture of losing content and modes along with online support. Be sure to check it out, and congratulations to RMJH4 and everyone involved for making the project happen!
