Alright, let’s talk about this NBA 2K24 “Start Today” thing. Folks are yellin’ that it ain’t workin’, and they wanna know why. Well, lemme tell ya, it ain’t always as simple as plantin’ corn. Sometimes things just get messed up, ya know?
First thing’s first, you gotta make sure your internet thingy is workin’ right. You know, that Wi-Fi box? Make sure it’s plugged in and all them lights are blinkin’ like they should. If it’s still actin’ up, maybe try turnin’ it off and on again. Just like when the TV gets fuzzy, sometimes a little reboot is all it needs. If that don’t work, maybe you gotta call them internet folks, them fellas in the city that handle all that stuff. They’ll charge ya an arm and a leg, but sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do. So, strong internet, that’s the first thing. Without it, well, you ain’t playin’ nothin’ online, that’s for sure.

Now, sometimes them computer games, they got their own problems. Like them firewalls and anti-virus things. They’re supposed to keep the bad stuff out, but sometimes they’re too picky and block the good stuff too. It’s like havin’ a guard dog that bites the mailman. So, ya might gotta go in there and tell it to let NBA 2K24 through. Don’t ask me how, I ain’t no computer whiz. But maybe your grandkids or that neighbor boy down the road, the one with all the fancy gadgets, they can help ya out. Firewalls and antivirus, gotta check them too. They can be real troublemakers, I tell ya.
And speaking of that fancy game machine, your PlayStation or Xbox or whatever you got, make sure that thing’s connected to the internet too. It’s like havin’ a phone but no phone line. Ain’t gonna do ya much good. Sometimes it just loses connection for no good reason, ya know? Like when the radio goes out durin’ a storm. Just gotta double-check it. Make sure it’s sayin’ it’s connected and everything.
- Check your internet connection. Is it strong and steady?
- See if them firewall and antivirus programs are blockin’ the game.
- Make sure your game machine is connected to the internet.
Now, about this “Start Today” thing itself. It’s supposed to let ya play a game with the real-life NBA teams and lineups, right? Like watchin’ the game on TV but gettin’ to play it yourself. But sometimes them game makers, they mess things up. Servers go down, things break, it happens. Maybe they’re workin’ on it, tryin’ to fix it. Sometimes ya just gotta be patient. Like waitin’ for the crops to grow, it takes time.
And another thing, sometimes them games, they gotta update. Like when the weatherman changes his forecast, they gotta update the game with the new players and scores and all that. If you ain’t updated the game, well, that might be your problem right there. It’s like tryin’ to drive a car with flat tires, ain’t gonna get ya nowhere. So check for updates, make sure your game is up to date.
And if none of that works, well, I don’t know what to tell ya. Maybe go outside for a bit, get some fresh air. Sometimes just walkin’ around and lookin’ at the trees can make ya feel better. Games ain’t everything, ya know? There’s plenty of other things to do. You can always go visit with your neighbor or do some work around the house. Sometimes, a break is good for the soul. Don’t get too worked up about it. It’s just a game, after all.
But if you really, really wanna play, maybe try startin’ a regular game, not the “Start Today” thing. Just pick your teams and play. It ain’t exactly the same, but it’s still basketball, ain’t it? And who knows, maybe by the time you finish that game, the “Start Today” thing will be workin’ again. Life’s like that sometimes, full of surprises.

So there ya have it, my two cents on why that NBA 2K24 “Start Today” ain’t workin’ for ya. Hope it helps, but if it don’t, well, don’t come complainin’ to me. I’m just an old woman tryin’ to make sense of all this newfangled technology. It’s a wonder any of it works at all, if you ask me.
