NBA 2K21 unskippable ads"will be fixed", states 2K

2K says the unskippable advertisements included in NBA 2K MT were executed in a way that the publisher"didn't intend," and that the mistake"will be fixed." In an overview on Twitter, the company addressed backlash into the way adverts were included in its most recent release. Earlier this week, players noticed an unskippable ad for the Oculus Quest 2 before an in-game videogame. That ad seemed to operate through a loading screen, but was the same length even when running from an SSD to a PC (via Stevivor). Players criticised 2K for the ad, with many imagining that it was appearing in a full-priced title.


In reaction, 2K reminded players that adverts"have been integrated to 2KTV segments" for a few years, but said that"yesterday 2KTV ad placement impacted our players' experience in a way we did not plan, as these ads are not intended to operate within their pre-game introduction." Because of this, the problem"will be fixed in future episodes," although there's no word on exactly when the change is going to be implemented. It will not sound like the adverts will truly be going away. 2K points out that they've been set up for a little while already, and that the problem here appears to be in which the advertisement showed up, not the simple fact that it was there in the first location. Hopefully the placements will be more subtle in future, but it appears that in-game adverts are set to be part of the NBA 2K games for a while yet.


That performance seems like its worthy of Buy NBA 2K21 MT Coins a Pink Diamond, at the least. On the next half of a yearlong, Jordan had 64 points, but the Bulls dropped the match in 128-124.
