The argument was "2K charges the same retail price for the PC version yet we only get a very minimal service," so I'd say you're paraphrasing a tad. Also, using the hotfixes to essentially say PC support is technically above and beyond the consoles' is a bit of a red herring as the hotfixes only exist to correct PC-specific problems (aka having problems with only your specific meal at the restaurant) in the first place.
Nobody is accusing 2k of purposely withholding a patch or somehow forgetting about it, but the fact of the matter is we have had an objectively inferior game compared to the consoles ever since release, yet all 3 platforms carried the same price. They have been working their best to right the wrongs and earn some goodwill for that, but that doesn't change how things were in the first place.
The multiple configurations point holds some weight, but some of the PC-only issues were so obvious out of the box and consistent for every single configuration. It's understandable that getting everything exactly right might take a bit more time (though why promise the same release date and not push things back?), but some issues were akin to completely forgetting to bring out any drinks or dinner rolls to the entire table, when every other table in the restaurant got everything properly.
As I've said previously, it's been 2 weeks since this patch was released on PS4 and likely closer to 3 weeks since it was submitted for both consoles. It's certainly not an apples to apples comparison like you said, but that is a hefty difference in time for identically-priced versions of the game. And, not to knock Leftos (as I'm certain that he sincerely has nothing new he's allowed to pass on yet), but we don't even have an
estimation for a release yet. Things would be completely hectic if it were the other way around and one of the consoles was dealing with this.
Inferior game (PC) compared to the consoles ??
Why ??
The game runs fine at max settings in my PC.
Better than consoles versions, included without crashs at moment.
I believe in the work of 2K, I think the patch (for PC) arrives soon, I think that support for the PC platform is being considered by 2K, I hope they continue to make future versions of the NBA 2K to the PC because this game is the best sports video games ever.
The game this year came with more bugs than previous years, but I believe in 2K's effort to fix the problems, something that has already occurred with the first patches at least for me.
Like Leftos support, a worker, they are taking a break because the moment is working on the patch, no use getting making excuses.
I hope that when the game is 100% or close to it (every game has a little problem here or there) people who opined negatively on Steam reconsider their evaluation (if possible, something I do not know, I have 50 games in Steam but never written a evaluation, will do this year for the NBA 2K) as it is a great sport game that is not found another equal in quality and depth.
My regard for the 2K work is such that very much hope that they come back to make a game based on NHL Hockey for major platforms (PS4, X1 and especially PC).
Leftos, tells the guys there to make an NHL 2K game as we look forward to return to play hockey on the PC.
NHL 2K for PC please.
Of course finishes do the job properly in the NBA 2K PC version.
Thanks and sorry for the bad English
