I was hopeful, but it just isn't worthwhile. I hadn't played any of the previous iterations, but this feels like an early alpha product without many features implemented. Those that are implemented are poorly conceived. I have been waiting for a good basketball management sim for a long time, which is why I was willing to give this one a shot despite the combination of price and user reviews. Though my expectations were quite low, this product fell far short of meeting them.My only interest in the game at this point would be to serve in the development process, in hopes that it will evolve into a quality product in the future.. TLDR; I love basketball and manager games, this one is so bad that I'd rather keep playing football\/soccer managers or really do anything else than deal with this rather Early access product.I really want to like this game. I really do. So much that I ignored the "mixed" reviews. I love sports management simulations and would love to have a good basketball one.This one isn't it, sadly. It seems rushed and half done, more like an early access title. It is:- crashes constantly (~ 1 crash per hour for me, hope you saved!)- absolutely lacking documentation, the "manual" is a joke, couldn't even find what skills influence exactly what- riddled with bugs (for example you can hire the same scout twice, he will show up twice, salary deducted twice, but he can only ever be on one mission)- lots of unpolishedness that with tiem drives you crazy (select sorting, go to player page, go back, sorting gone :( )- missing features (or things I can't find in the game or the manual) - hey you are scouting this player, oh you realized after an update he is not for you - there is NO WAY (that I can find) to abort scouting that player so hey continue wasting resources on them- Game gets ridicoulosly slow at times, e.g. if I played a game, simulated till end and afterwards want to simulate the schedule. At one time it just stopped after minutes. An no I haven't selected too many leagues, restart and reload the game and everything happens in seconds again (some sort of leak I guess)That are just a few of the things. You can also find a "<BR>" text in a fairly prominent text (HTML for line break, seems to have not been correctly converted). This hints to the amount of quality assurance this apparently went through.Stay away.. Hey folks, did you like Basketball Pro Manager 2015?! No? Yeah, me neither.Well, good news! It's back - with a slight rearrangement of the words in the title, anyway - and this time, it's got shooting fouls!Pros:1) English translation of French terms will keep you on your toes, regardless of your basketball knowledge. Your starting PG just got the master key? Hey, good for him.2) You will become intimately familiar with the various menus and submenus as you try and track down the location of fundamental components like statistical leaders and free agents.3) Worried that your team is lacking firepower on the perimeter? Never mind, that 6\/20 rated three point shooting SF has got you covered - 60% on the year on just under 1 attempt a game.4) Worried that those teeny little guards aren't going to help out on the glass? Don't be! With the rigidly scripted 3Dish engine, your guards have as much chance of being in a rebounding position as I do of firing this title up again.5) Did I mention shooting fouls?!Cons:1) My lack of familiarity with professional basketball coaching probably had something to do with my 4\/20 rated 3pt shooting starting forward firing up 5.5 3pt attempts per game on a .008 clip for the year.2) My lack of familiarity with Vietnamese culture probably had something to do with me not finding it authentic having Vietnamese prospects with American names.Highly recommended!. Entertaining and deep simulation with a few quirks in a short time playing. Biggest issue so far is adjusting to odd English translations for game actions. "The referees take (player x)" is a common penalty call, for instance. Other than that localization issue, the gameplay is clearly deep, with both pro and college teams, male and female, and the ability to manage do what degree you choose. There's the ability to design your own plays, run specific ones, or just say "Hey, PG, shoot a 3 this time." However, just like coaches have to deal with, the players won't always react how you want. There's morale, injuries, and all of the typical details you'd expect in such a sim. Only a bit into it so far (with one come-from-behind 16 point turn around by Michigan State over Kansas), but it's there's quite a bit here to get into. Time will tell how it stands up.Now, I present to you the end of my review and the beginning of my personal musical's hit number, "Bork!"*curtain rises*Bork! Mmmm bork bork bork! Mmmmm bork! BORK BORK bork bork BORK BORK mmmmm BORK!*curtain lowers to thunderous applause*. As an avid fan of manager games and having sunk several hundreds of hours into FM, I was excited to see this game released. I skipped the 2015 edition of this game and hoped that 2016 would be a better game. So far, this game has not met my expecations.The game is clunky, UI is messy, and the 3D engine is quite disastrous. Everything runs a couple seconds late, the animations are bad at best, and the game does not come with the right tools for you to make on the fly decisions as a "basketball manager."That isn't to say this game does not have potential. The foundation has been laid for what could be a great game, but the devs will need to expand upon it to optimze the game performance and reduce the crashes. If they can do that, I would have happy to change my review to a recommend, but at this point, I simply cannot recommend this to anyone, even if you are a fan of simulation series\/basketball.. Good game.I love the club managment aspect: Fixing the ticket prices in the arena, the price of beers etc. Great!The basketball side is great too.. I have to agree the bad reviews might have been written too fast. The game is a very good basketball management game. It's a finished product and is updated frequently by the Devs. The Devs are also very active on the main game forum, taking suggestions and helping people out with issues - nice to see!The price is great for what you get, and the option to buy the US only version which excludes all leagues minus the NBA + NCAA is GREAT! This means if you only want to play NBA buy the US Edition for half the price.The game has a lot of potential. Yes some of the UI needs fixing as finding some options takes a few clicks but it's all being noted down on their forum follwing player feedback.If you are looking for a good and very in depth basketball sim then don't be worried to purchase this game.. AVOID UNLESS TRULY DEDICATED.Worthwhile for hardcore manager fans, dedicated basketball fans, not a product for casual gamer though.Im not a soccer fan, but I truly enjoy playing Football Manager games. If I weren't avid basketball fan I wouldve hated this game.ENGINE: 9\/10GFX\/UI: 2\/10 - as for graphic design even managers nowadays are held to a higher standardsAs most of Cyanide games - full of top-notch ideas, but their execution is ranging from terrible to medicore at best. I always feel like Im getting unfinished, hurried product. Might be just me, but thats the story with Of Orcs and Men, Game of Thrones, Styx and recently Blood Bowl 2. Some of in-game mechanisms (like Blood Bowl online competition system) feel outdated by at least 10 years. Im still hopeful someday theyll release a product that feels complete, cause if they do thats gonna be no doubt game of a year for me. Gotta pay lots more attention to detail to get there, though.EDIT: It doesn't even sort player stats properly... talk bout attention to detail. (100 FG% is counted as less than 30 FG%) I bet there are countless silly mistakes like this yet to be discovered.
