Great game series, just one thing...
I love the Big Win series of games in its entirety, I definitely recommend to anyone reading this review to get the games. But, I have just one issue with the games. I would at least like to see some fair matches more often, since the unranked matchmaking makes no sense. You can get a 42 Overall team going against a 99 Overall team and get blown out and get practically very little rewards from the game. I would like to see a ranked match update in all of the games. (Example: Level 1-5 teams would be Rookie level, Level 6-10 teams be Pro Level, Level 11-15 be Veteran Level, Level 16-20 be All-Star Level, 21-25 be Champion Level, 26-30 be Superstar Level, and 30+ be Hall of Fame Level) I hope to see ranks implemented in the updates for Big Win since I think it's something that will make the game more and more enjoyable.
Honest Review
I really like the game because it’s relatively easy to become good. It’s also a really good time waster. However there’s some small things that I know the developers can fix. Such as well if your a 90 overall you should be blowing out 40’s whether you have big win cards on or not. But my main suggestion is please add some sort of auction house or trading with friends. I say this because coins are practically useless and if you have an extra platinum player or player or any tier what’s the point in selling them for some terrible amount of coins. If we could trade with our friends we could trade our backups for a starter on our respective teams. Or the auction block would let us sell those cards for coins which we could then use to buy a card of the same tier at a different position.
Great, but could be better
The games awesome and fun. If you want to watch basketball, not in basketball season, look no further. Every thing about the game is fun, but it could be better. What would make this game better, would be coach cards. There are only a few plays, and with coach’s, your team can run more plays, some better than others. Other thing you could add, would be a bench, so you can substitute players in and out.
Needs to be updated
As much as i love this game, it has SOO much potential and needs to be updated. Could you imagine being able to play a playoff mode where u verse the teams inside the tournament and compete for championship in 7 games. idk, just an idea. I have never written a review for any of ur games, i usually kept it in my head. Big Win sports has been part of my childhood, and i still care a lot about it. what it could become. I recommend monthly updates if the developing team even cares enough to which i doubt. This isnt meant to come off as passive aggressive, its just frustrating when a community of players slowly dissapear since there is no update rather then the yearly "bug fixes" and outdated name change. It's 2021 and has been that way for over 6 months, yet here we are "Big Win Basketball 2020". That itself shows they dont even work on this game anymore, for years. Pretty much the reviews dont matter. Its a bit tone-deff. Anyways thats why its a 3/5. Still love this game and played it for a good 6 years. Ty!
Good Game Many Problems
This game is easily one of my go to games when passing the time but this game has a lot more potential that would really make this game better thing like Trading With Friends that would make the game feel more like your managing a real nba team also ways that guarantee you get a player you want like Auctions and A new mode where you can start an actual season with friends. Also I wish there was more variety in what the players actually do in game like Power Forwards and Centers should be allowed to shoot threes by adding new plays that could get them that shot that would help make it so Shooting guards are mostly scoring all of the points. And the main thing that needs to be fixed is the crazy amount of bugs that are in this game bugs like it closing every time you challenge a friend, the game crashing for no reason and more. But overall this game is fairly enjoyable but could be better.
Could be a top tier fantasy basketball game!!!!
Listen I’ve played this game for 7-8 years and where are the accessories for your players? No Sleeves , fingers wearables etc. There needs to be more variety so the game can be less boring ( no offense) but this game has barely changed since 2011. Also the algorithm for losing is atrocious honestly I like how you can grind in tournaments for tons of big bucks that’s amazing but I have a 92 overall team and I’m still getting beat by bronze players and I know theirs upsets and underdog wins but this happens way too often even when I have good gold impacts it won’t matter. One more thing I stopped playing for a few weeks now because I’m just tired of playing the same game over and over I mean if u guys just updated the game it would be better than NBA live mobile probably no cap!!!!!
I enjoy this game, but.....
I feel like there should be skill based matchmaking integrated in this game. Basically where you are placed in a game where your opponents are either of or at least near the same skill level as you. I just started the game (Level 6) and I get placed against a guy with a Much higher level with a team full of Superstar players. That's not fair to me at all because his team was obviously way better than mine all around. And just to add; his skill level was about 96 and mine was only 50. The point of this game is to maintain a good team in order to get a good W/L record. But I can't have a good record if I'm continuously matched up with people who almost have a guaranteed chance of winning against me.
Cool Game
The only thing I hate about this game is the fact that a 30-40 ranked team can blow out my 80-90 ranked team. There is no reason for a squad with all bronze players (playing out of position at that) to be blowing me out by 15-20 points!That’s ridiculous..award us for getting gold/platinum cards and make the bronze teams lose more so that they have some incentive to get silver or gold players. Or how about a better match play algorithm?! I actually like this version better than the baseball and football. Gameplay is quicker and cards are easier to obtain. When you play in events, getting ranked high really helps..you get a lot of dollars. So, I’ve made two in game purchases for very cheap and that’s all.
Needs improvement
I’ve been playing this game for quite some time now and I haven’t gotten the experience I was expecting. To start out, the simulation is horrible. You can have a 90 overall team and use 3 regular cards, and lose to a 40 overall with 3 big gold cards. Yes the cards are supposed to improve the team, but there is a no way possible a team that low of an overall should be winning against a better team. Also, the game doesn’t allow you to buy players. You have to buy players through packs that don’t guarantee a good player. The packs need work as well. I’ve opened silver packs and gold packs and gotten more jerseys and power ups than players. Getting good players is very rare, in fact, they offer a pack once in a while that only gives you a .01 chance of pulling really good cards. The game need a lot more work done and the game is becoming more frustrating and irritating than fun and addicting.
Terrible
This game is terrible straight up. How can a team with a 44. Rating beat a team with 5 superstars that’s unacceptable that should never ever happen idc if y’all are trying to mix it up and let the beginners win games but you people are gonna tell that I worked hard on making a great team so I can get maxed out players to lose to someone who literally just downloaded the app. What type of sense does that make... big win you guys need to fix that I’m sorry.. idc about it being the same game since 2014 because that doesn’t y’all need to do something about those 105 vs 40 rating matchups. It should be no question. It might seem like to y’all that it’s not a big deal but it is. How can I have 5 superstars in my lineup and with 5/5 chemistry and take an L vs a beginner. That’s supposed to be a overpowering win every time period point blank
Pure Luck and Pay to win
This game requires no strategy at all. None. Whether you win or not is 90% pure luck and 10% pay to win. High overall players are near impossible to get without spending upwards of hundreds of dollars, and even when you obtain those players u still do not have a big advantage over lower rated teams. My team is an 88 overall and out of no where I would get blown out by 50 overall teams. It makes no sense at all. On top of that, coins are basically useless. The only way to buy any decent contracts or big impact cards is to spend cash, which can only be obtained in large amounts with real money. Overall horrible game that is a pure money scam. Only bright side is the events. Sometimes I get lucky and it’s a tiny bit fun
Ratings are Irrelevant
Even if you have players that are healthy and rated 90 or 100 plus, you lose to players worse than yours. Even if your team is rated 50 plus points better than your opponent, you lose. Even if your team chemistry is the highest possible, you lose to teams with poor team chemistry. Even if you purchase better players or skill advantages, you lose to teams that don’t. In summary, you lose, lose, lose. You lose. This game basically lulls you into thinking that you will win someday even though you keep losing. It’s unbelievable how much you lose. You start to believe that you’re a loser or an idiot that spends money to lose. If you like to pay to lose then you will enjoy this game tremendously, loser.
1 is for graphics and physic being better evolved than Atari 2600.
An “improvement and an evolution” from there. Well ya gotta say SOMETHING nice. I have ZEEEERO INTEREST in WATCHING my team play and having ZEEEERO part in the gameplay action. There’s a WHOOOOLE TON to rewrite to be able to even call this a game. I never, EVER like to say anything unkind about anyone else, particularly these days when it seems everyone is already doing that to each other so unkindly and unnecessarily. So, if I can even possibly finish by assuring you that it’s nothing personal, it’s simply that this was nothing like what I expected it to be. God Bless You and please, make a B-Ball game that will even CRUSH the big players. You need a larger, meaner team, who are far greater in numbers, in organization, and in their multi-gifted, wildly beyond what this game had - believe it or not I CAN PERSONALLY HELP YOU. With BEST FRIEND from 30 thirty years-on who is an accomplished, and multi-patented former Apple Software Engineer whose world we still use today. He is a GAME DESIGNING PROFESSOR with a slew of young followers to CREATE FOR YOU! Let me know!
The Same Game For Years
I can't believe how much Big Win Sports doesn't care about the players. This game and all Big Win games have been the exact same game for years now. Even though you have had countless reviews written with great ideas on how to improve the games. The last big thing to happen in Big Win was the introduction of events. That was over 2 years ago, since then the game has not changed at all, except for minor bug fixes. There's a reason why popular games on the App Store and Play Store are so popular. It's because they release game changing updates every couple of months or so. It's been 2 years of absolutely nothing. You need to listen to the community, we want a card market, we want more big impact cards, we want improved pack odds, etc. All of those ideas and more would greatly help the game improve. It's time you start listening to us, we're tired of our great ideas being ignored.
