Whilst loading advertisments in the NBA 2K franchise aren't new, the sudden flood of irate messages across Reddit and social media (thanks, Nintendo Life) concerning 2K19 intimates either a bug or an upswing in the number of advertisements playing. "Yeah, my game got to 100% and instead of letting me edit match ups (which you can normally do while the game loads) or letting me go straight to the game, I had to sit there and finish the ad," said one commenter.

Universe mode The proper menu displays when using a Superstar unlocked via VC and assigning them a custom title in a show. Also, the title will no longer soft crash when attempting to load into the edited show. No additional manager will appear when customizing a normal match with managers and then switching to another Superstar with two managers. Fixed issue with normal matches with managers when the target menu would appear when selecting participants for an entrance run-in. The target menu no longer appears, and if a match participant is selected for a normal match with managers, their opponent will be automatically the target of the entrance run-in. Gameplay Fixed soft crash when using some specific side plate designs in a custom title and then assigning that title to a Superstar with custom side plates. MyPlayer Fixed issue with players not receiving a new move when purchasing from the store and closing out of the game during the loading screen immediately after. Now players that do this will retain their VC and are free to purchase that move again if they like. Towers Players are now able to reverse the A.I.'s signature and finisher after a comeback has been successfully performed in the Million Dollar Tower.
