- “I'm really impressed with the graphics.”
- “From the moment you launch the game, you're greeted with stunning graphics that capture the intensity and excitement of NBA games.”
- “The graphics are great.”
- “In terms of graphics, it's very bad, nothing good at all.”

- “The controls are very late, the graphics are bad, and the opponent's players can shoot while yours brick it. It's actually a very bad game.”

Overall, the gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many players praising the graphics and smooth controls but expressing frustration over inconsistent shooting mechanics, sluggish character movement, and unbalanced gameplay elements like dunking. Numerous users highlighted the need for improvements in shooting accuracy, defensive mechanics, and overall responsiveness to enhance the gaming experience. While some players find the gameplay enjoyable, a significant number feel it requires substantial refinement to meet expectations.
- “Nba Infinite delivers top-notch graphics, smooth controls, and addictive gameplay.”
- “Great gameplay and easy to learn.”
- “I really enjoy the gameplay and the different players that the game offers.”
- “Good but needs work. Finishing is broken, that whole mechanic for dunking needs to be patched, it is way too broken. Shooting needs a rework too as it is way too inconsistent; I'm missing wide open shots in the blue with a shooter, makes no sense.”
- “The gameplay is very slow; it feels like a slow-motion instant replay. NBA Live '95 has better fluidity. The block button and steal button reaction time is 1.5 seconds.”
- “The shooting is trash as well. You can miss perfect releases while in some games your opponent can make difficult three-pointers or two-pointers, and the gameplay feels pretty slow. Dunking is way too overpowered.”

The stability of the game is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of freezing, lag, and various bugs that disrupt gameplay. Many players experience issues such as delayed actions, corrupted loading screens, and penalties for unintentional disconnections, which detract from an otherwise enjoyable experience. While some users express hope for future improvements, the current state is described as frustrating and unstable, leading to mixed reviews.
- “This game has a lot of potential, but there are a few bugs and glitches that make the playing experience a bit hard.”
- “I would give this game a 4, but there are some issues that need to be addressed before that happens. Overall, I love playing the game and how you can play with others in real time. What I don't like is that the game glitches while you're shooting and on defense. There's a lot of network interference even when I have a pretty good connection. I would also like to address that every time the game decides to force close during the start of a match, I get a message saying that I quit on purpose and get penalized.”
- “The game freezes on you, which is why I give it a bad review.”

The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players labeling it a "cash grab" due to the prevalence of microtransactions and limited player options. While some appreciate the absence of intrusive ads and do not find it overly pay-to-win, others express frustration over the lack of in-game purchases and the game's reliance on monetization strategies that could hinder long-term enjoyment. Overall, players feel that the monetization model detracts from the overall experience, despite some positive gameplay elements.
- “Does have in-game purchases but that's understandable.”
- “Good game but can you fix the in-game purchase?”
- “This game also should fix the microtransactions system.”
- “Played for 2 days now, got into it a decent amount, but the main problem persists for me, which is that there's a lack of player options. Let's be real, no one here wants to play as Brook Lopez or Bam Adebayo. Where are the old school players and the fan favorites? Although seeing the game is a bit of a cash grab, I wouldn't be surprised to see players like Kobe limited to the store as an option in the future.”
- “Garbage cash grab. Layups are broken, shooting means nothing; perfect shots go in as much as completely off shots.”
- “Gameplays alright but not worth it in the end. As soon as it launched, it was littered with microtransactions. Players are about the only thing you can buy with the in-game currency, but there are upgrades, skills, and level/rank purchases—everything you would see in a pay-to-win game. It's really not going to be worth anything when it starts getting bigger.”

The story aspect of the game is perceived as lacking depth, with players expressing a desire for a more engaging narrative beyond daily missions and achievements. While the gameplay mechanics and graphics receive praise, the overall experience feels repetitive and unfulfilling due to limited rewards and simplistic challenges, leading to a sense of boredom among players. Many hope for future updates to enhance the storyline and provide better incentives for free-to-play users.
- “I often don't do reviews, but this one deserves 5 stars... great game, graphics, mechanics, missions, everything about it is well balanced... good job!”
- “Love the game but the missions and event challenges are too easy; aside from that, being contested shouldn't be 0% to make a shot. It's not realistic.”
- “As an NBA game, I would think there would be a storyline.”
- “The reward for playing the match is not really worth it; the game didn't give us a lot of diamonds or money for buying a character, while the price for getting the character you want is really expensive.”
- “Love the game, but the missions and event challenges are too easy. It makes it boring.”
grinding

Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game enjoyable and rewarding, allowing them to build a decent roster without the need for pay-to-win mechanics. However, some express frustration over the high costs associated with certain in-game items, suggesting that the pricing could be more reasonable to enhance the overall experience. Despite minor complaints, the multiplayer experience and camaraderie while grinding are highlighted as significant positives.
- “Love the game, have been grinding so much, but I think it's way too much money. That LeBron thing is about 800 dollars to get everything, which is outrageous for one card. Maybe if you made the game less pricey, I would actually spend money on it. Other than that, great game. I'm not a huge fan of the walking animation; no matter what the speed, they all walk like old men with back issues, but great game nonetheless.”
- “You can get a decent roster just by grinding.”
- “I spent a whole 2 days grinding money to pre-order Steph Curry 24. Where and how do I claim it?”
emotional

Players express frustration with the emotional impact of the game, highlighting that while the characters and court design are appealing, the experience is marred by the behavior of other players, which can be disheartening and negatively affect their enjoyment and ranking. The lack of an out-of-bounds system further contributes to their emotional distress during gameplay.
humor
2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The humor in the game stems from the exaggerated difficulty of making three-point shots, which contrasts with the current NBA focus on them, leading to a comedic frustration. Players find the quirky controls and inconsistent shooting mechanics amusing, as even well-timed shots often miss, adding to the game's lighthearted charm.
- “The threes are nearly impossible to make, which is funny because that's all the NBA is now. In this game, you're going to miss them unless the heavens open up for you.”
- “It's not bad; the controls are kind of funky, and the shooting is too. Even when you hit the green, it won't go in, so it's kind of funny.”
