Draft Day Sports: Pro Basketball 2018

This game is a lot of fun but it crashes way to much. I had a similar issue with draft day sports college basketball 14 and its unbelievable that after 5 years they still haven't been able to fix the crashes. I'll give this a good rating if they ever fix the crashes.

Wow... As rough and unpolished as this game is (compared to other established sports management games), the engine and flow of action is by far the best basketball sim experience i've ever had. Don't get me wrong, there is a LOT of things that can be improved upon with the user interface and presentation and things 'n tweaks under the hood, for instance lack of comparing players, lack of obvious hyperlinking to make life simple, better layout and i/o on 2d and gamecast screens (Devs, I will try my best to outline what could be improved upon in my opinion, in a future discussion on the forum)... BUT The "Flow "of the game is so damn believable! I can feel the momentum shifts, hot/cold streaks, intuitive proper expected flow like turnovers that lead to uncontested shots/dunks and believable offensive putbacks... Things that are just non-existant in other bb managerial sims at least imo and experiences. Modding to real teams/players/logos/etc takes a bit of effort, but it all is such a rewarding experience to marry with this engine. Worth the time! My only gripe is it's quite a bit of a chore to manually edit the databases for 2018-19.. and I hope the community is working hard o…

Draft Day Sports: Pro Basketball 2018 is a basketball management simulation designed around the fantasy of controlling a professional franchise from the front office rather than taking direct control of athletes on the court. Developed and published by Wolverine Studios, it places roster building, personnel management, statistical analysis, and long-term planning at the center of the experience. This makes it a considerably more specialized basketball game than an action-oriented sports title, but for players fascinated by the decisions behind a successful organization, there is plenty of strategic depth to explore. The core career mode gives you responsibility for shaping a franchise into a championship contender. Drafting prospects, arranging trades, signing free agents, and making strategic choices all contribute to the development of your team. Individual moves may appear straightforward, but their consequences can stretch across multiple seasons. Building a strong roster requires more than simply collecting talented players. You must consider how your decisions fit into a larger plan and whether the organization is being positioned for immediate success or sustainable growth.…

On a gaming computer this game freezes and shuts down

I'm a big fan of other Wolverine titles, but this was very disappointing. The stability of the game is, quite simply, unacceptable. I bought it this week. Played about 10 hours. Uninstalled today. Constant crashes. Look at Gary's other fine titles. I regret this purchase.

If you're into sports sims, this is a very good one. Lots of stats and quite addictive.
