#4 Bugs
WWE 2K series is notorious for shipping with plenty of crazy - sometimes hilarious - bugs right out of the box. Not... actual living bugs though. That would be gross. And an odd marketing decision.
On a serious note, rarely did a player get the game on Day 1 and play it through until the next game released and never come across even one glitch.
This time around, however, it got bad. While early reviews of previous games in the series would mention the occasional bug here and there, WWE 2K20 had such a big problem with them that it was all some reviewers could talk about.
When game reviewers are throwing around words and phrases like "unplayable" and "game-breaking", you know you have a problem on your hands.
Since the release, 2K has done a really good job of patching the title. If you have a copy of the game and haven't played it in a while because of these issues, try giving in another whirl. I think you'll agree it's gotten much better.
But at the time, these bugs were just way too much for players to deal with. And along those lines....
#3 Patches took way too long to come out
A game launching with a ton of programming issues isn't anything new. Heck, that's the whole reason "Day One Patch" is part of the gaming lexicon these days. It's a way for publishers and developers to assure the public buying their game that, yes, they know it's got some issues, but they're already on the case.
WWE 2K20 launched and... nothing. Despite numerous reports that the game was riddled with bugs, it took over a week for 2K to even acknowledge that there was even a patch in the works. Even when one was released, it didn't do nearly enough to satisfy players and soon, people simply stopped caring... and stopped playing.
As I said in the previous point, the game has now been patched to the point that it's much, much better. For a lot of fans, however, it was simply too little, too late.
