![]() NLSC THRILLHO was born!Īlthough some improvements were made to 2K Pro-Am following its introduction in NBA 2K16, I’d still say that the original incarnation of the mode is one of the best. However, when Kenny invited Arcane and I to play 2K Pro-Am in NBA 2K16 along with community members The X, Valor, and zzcoolj21, we were hooked. I’d dabbled with it in the past, but was generally content to play franchise modes, or stick to the NBA side of M圜AREER. To that point though, for a while I was far more enthusiastic about online play. Technically that refers to the present day as well, as I no longer find the scene appealing in NBA 2K. There was a time when I was very reluctant to play online. This week, I’m taking a look back at 2K Pro-Am in NBA 2K16, as well as how the mode has changed since then. ![]() This is Wayback Wednesday, your midweek blast from the past! From retrospectives of basketball games and their interesting features, to republished articles and looking at NBA history through the lens of the virtual hardwood, Wednesdays at the NLSC are for going back in time. I have my doubts that 2K would go to the trouble of doing so however, and while I’ll always support my fellow gamers over a company, I do understand their position. Even if it were for a week or two every year to celebrate the history of the series, it would be a fantastic opportunity to revisit classic releases and re-download lost updates. That isn’t to say that I’d be against 2K reactivating servers for those games, or some other old favourites. While I disagree that it’s merely myopic nostalgia that has created an appreciation for NBA 2K16 and NBA 2K17, and a desire to see 2K reactivating the servers for those titles, it is fair to note the unlikelihood of it ever happening. In turn, those people will be accused of being blinded by nostalgia. There’s bound to be a few disgruntled gamers making that eternal request of “fix your servers!” And speaking of online support, you might see a couple of people raising the issue of reactivating servers for games such as NBA 2K16 and NBA 2K17. Others will be asking for Locker Codes or VC giveaways. Some gamers will bring up technical issues that they’re having, prompting a form response from the 2K Support account. Whenever the official NBA 2K Twitter sends out a Tweet, you’ll see some familiar replies. This week, I’m tipping things off by discussing the prospect of reactivating servers for older NBA 2K games. With the release of the first modding tool for NBA 2K16, don’t forget that our upload facilities are free, and available to anyone with an active Forum account!

Join me as I begin the week here at the NLSC with my opinions and commentary on basketball gaming topics, as well as tales of the fun I’ve been having on the virtual hardwood.
