NBA 2k19 update: Players are complaining about compulsory in game ads

Players are facing problems of in-game advertisements that are bothering the NBA 2k19 players even after the recent update.

Based on the National Basketball Association, NBA 2k19 is a basketball simulation video game developed by Visual Concepts and published by 2K Sports. It is the 20th installment in the NBA 2K franchise. The game was initially released on September 11, 2018, for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One and it did receive a great response by the players mainly from the one who use game consoles.

Earlier, the players were complaining about some significant gameplay issues that led down the franchise, but these problems were resolved to some extent with the latest 2k19 update. But this update came with another not so major problem that is bothering its players.

Recently after the 2k19 update, the gamers have been complaining about the unskippable in-game advertisements that pop up in between the game. These in-game ads could be irritating, and above all these types of ads are rare on big console game like NBA 2k19.

These ads in the game are about the TV series called “Snowfall.” Once the ad starts, the players have to watch it until it ends and only then they can proceed to their next game or menu. But the fans are now guessing why does the NBA need to do this? Some say that it is because the game was being discounted a lot earlier.

The price of the game had gone lowest to a $3, and some have bought it at $60 as well. Because of this, the game must have suffered a huge loss and now to compensate for the damage they are adding these paid promotional advertisements in the game.

The players have been complaining about these advertisements and are expecting a change in the upcoming NBA 2k20.
