#1 NBA 2K18 Crashes

For some players, the game crashes to desktop after a few minutes of launching or it might crash while playing a match, at the final buzzer of the game, for example. Either way, this issue seems to be generated by your graphic card driver not being compatible with the game. To fix this issue check our solutions below. Solutions: You can try and update your graphic card driver if you don’t already have the latest version of it. Make sure that you are using your dedicated GPU while playing. Optimize GPU!

#2 NBA 2K18 Update Won’ t Download


A lot of players are encountering a bug that stucks them at the update screen. They are simply waiting for the in-game update to download and nothing happens. Check below some tips from a Reddit user on how to get past this issue. This happens to me after every update for the last month or so. If I go to download a roster or draft class, it says “file is corrupt” and won’t load. The only workaround I’ve found is to go to the Play Now menu and play a game. Eventually (usually just a couple minutes in for me), a message will pop up saying an update is needed so exit to the main menu and the update will apply itself. Once this happens, you download the rosters. To me it seems like this is clearly a 2k problem. Their updates aren’t automatically installing themselves once they’ve downloaded for some reason. You have to wait for that message and go to the main menu for some stupid reason instead of just playing the game. I literally have to do this every time I want to get a file from the 2k server. It’s beyond frustrating. @Reddit If your game is still stuck at the update screen, check our tutorial at the end of the post!

#3 NBA 2K18 Not Launching

Your game might crash to desktop while launching or it might get stuck at the loading screen. For some players, NBA won’t launch at all, they press the Steam Play button and nothing happens. To fix this issue, you need to make sure that your game files are not corrupted. To do that you can verify the integrity cache of the game, or you can check our tool that will do that for you automatically and launch your game.

#4 NBA 2K18 Performance Issues Low FPS Lag

It seems that most of the players are encountering performance issues at the moment. Most of them complain about super low frame rates and lag. First, you need to make sure that you are using your dedicated GPU and that you are not playing NBA 2K18 with your integrated graphic card. How to change from integrated to dedicated: Go to NVIDIA Control Panel > Desktop > Display GPU Activity Icon in Notification Area. You will see a black chip picture in the taskbar. If the chip turns rainbow, which means your NVIDIA GPU is running. Right-click the blank space of the desktop. Select NVIDIA Control Panel to switch between two graphics manually under Manage 3D Settings > Preferred Graphics Processor. Performance Optimization: Change your GPU to dedicated with the tutorial above. Update your GPU to the latest driver. Make sure your game is not interfering with any third party applications.
