Community Insight:
Okay so in our personal opinion ive lived this game and the racing one forever and we need them updated to newer games like we need to be able to choose if our team mainly shoots 3s or mainly rin runs or does half and half and so on and for the racing game we just need a new one more like f1 clash.
We love the game!!! Can we get a BIG Update soon.
Wish the AI would be a little smarter but they still be doing real life stuff also fix the bugs guys like Im actually not lying we wasted players and cards to get top 250 in the live event and didnt get any big bucks.
This game has been around for a long time its sad to see there hasnt been another game made or an update at least yall slacking frrr get back in the lab GAME DEV.
We love this game and we would love for Big Win to make a golf version.
Update it LIKE YOU DID FOOTBALL THATS ALL.
The game is fun but it would be amazing if you could control each player instead of watching. Enable a joystick option in order to control your team on defense and offense.
Unfortunately, the big win error is true. We opened a pack and lost all of it because of it this is war.
We keep trying to start an account but it constantly tells us there is an error. Please fix it so we can try the game.
We really like playing this game and would like if you were to make the game look more like big win football. The graphics and smoothness makes that game very good.
Game is awesome! But sometimes we just wish we could hop in and play the game.A possible update could be where you can hop in and play the game but awesome game.
Please make another game. Theres so much you can add like a trophy room or new packs or new plays for your team to do this game is seriously great but there is still so much you can add! We would be happy to give ideas.
It needs to be more like basketball where you can manually call timeouts and substitute players and stuff like that.
Wondering if the servers are down for good. If so, it was an amazing run. Thank you.
But it keeps going off line and we lose all the money we invested into our team.
Update and upgrade we love this game can we please get a upgrade new graphics the football looks great come on HOTHEAD.
You have people cheating in events every week and friends list does not work get rid of the cheaters and fix friends list.
This game is much fun to play or should we say watch. There are a couple more things we want you guys to fix and add. #1: Let our power forwards and centers shoot some threes, If our power forward has a high shot percentage we have to expect him to shoot some threes, same thing for our center too. #2: Give us a choice to play the games for real. And give us a shot meter to when we actually play the game. Lastly, #3: Let us choose new plays, we are tired of our team using the same plays over and over again. Also let our players wear arm sleeves in customize and add braids too. Another thing, Add leg sleeves for the left and right leg.
BEST SPORTS GAME IVE EVER PLAYED!! Just a few things. A lot of bugs need to be fixed. Lately with Big Win Games, we cant look at our friends list or do anything with them. But still a great game.
Yall better give this games its flowers with a big update we need big win basketball 2024 make it happy stop ignoring us.
So yea we downloaded it and when we press the buttons it doenst even work.
Great game, Ive been playing since 2017 Im wonder if you guys plan on releasing a similar update like you did for big win football.
This is a great game but if we were to make an suggestions we think an addition of more animations for different variations of plays could be added into the game (Alley oops, pick and pops between the backcourt and front court, etc). Maybe an addition of creating logos for team instead of just the preview of uniforms and maybe a home/away jerseys.
This game is really addicting and fun but we just logged in today and our team of level 105 players in gone. Our whole account reset. Devs please give us our team back Ive spent so much time trying to make our team and not its all thrown away.
Need a new one been playing this for like a decade. Excellent game but its outdated and need a new character creator/editor. Thank you.
We love this game and been playing all big wins for idk how long now but if youre going to change big win football you should update the others too.
If you have been a fan of big win games, you have probably seen the reviews people give to the big win series. The game is clearly based off of luck, and every time the users think there is a new update, they make a completely different game instead of updating the football version. If you have not played these games since 2015, you will almost always be matched up against a 70+ overall team. The packs are rigged too. DO NOT PLAY THESE GAMES IF YOU DONT HAVE A PREVIOUS TEAM YOU CAN RECOVER. If you look at your game history, you will never win more than 5 games in a row, same applies to losing. The events are rigged, and if you see any users with the letters PC in their team name, it stands for purposely contested, which means they are either bots or hackers that rig the games you play. They are almost always over 120 overall. For the last time developers, PLEASE UPDATE SOMETHING OTHER THAN THE TITLE SCREEN. Also, if you are having trouble pressing buttons on your screen because it is stretched out, rotate your iPad into a phone's position. This will make the game think that you have a phone and tilt the screen into a playable position. Thank you for reading our review and we hope it provides you help and avoidance of rage and misery caused by big win games. Warm regards, Team owner of Miami Dolphins (122 overall).
Every time we load up the game it says Im having internet problems even though its 1 foot away from us and also it say Im not in the severs. Hothead please fix this problem.
Please put the update to play with or players you did a good job so please just do this update keep working hard.
But can you add where we can move the charter than watching the game.
It glitches to manly the screen but other wise a very fun game.
We just want to see the game improved like big win football 2024 its more up to date and looks better.
Its a great game except for the energy. We want to play the game, not wait ten minutes for 1 energy to play one game. Please fix it.
Can you guys update the app we keep experiencing glitches and freezing and closing the app.
We like the game alot its just the plays are usually always the same n its gets a little boring not being able to see something different or have 3d players or being able to sub in more players.
We see all these reviews having the same complaints for Years. If you actually READ these reviews, Im sure you wouldve fixed them by now or at least update the game (That goes for all Big Win games).
Love playing this game and playing against our friends but idk why the servers are down and was pretty upset when we saw this. Plz fix the servers soon.
Any 2024 updates coming for any of the bigs wins besides football.
This game is decent but you should add the ability to trade with your friends. Like players and currency.
Game is fun. But the only thing is we cant play anymore. When Im in the loading screen, we press find team. Then it Shows us private policy page. And we cant click on anything, please fix it.
Look love the game we really do but please add more players and keep them on an all year round pack opening. We want to get more players that are better then platinum and superstar get like galaxy opels or all stars or like amethyst players come on we still play this game dont let it die out now.
We used to grind all the Big Win games. We loved them a ton, but we tried playing them again recently, and they wont load at all. It lets us play for a couple minutes, then kicks us out due to connection error. Please update these cause they are AWESOME.
Our brothers and we love this game, we have a 94 rated team and have enjoyed the game a lot. The only thing that really pushes this game down to 3 stars is the amount of low rated teams we lose too, Ive lost to 50 overall teams. And it happens pretty often, its not a rare thing. A 94 rated team should never lose to team below 80, maybe on occasion for a team in the 70s but Im not joking when we say our team loses to 50 and 60 overall teams 50% of the time. Its very confusing and gets old.
We always go to our room and download Big win, but when we join, it always says a error when we press ok.
We recently tried getting back into this after not playing it for a while and we reinstalled it to see if that would work but every time we try to do an event or do a game, it loads and lets us put the cards that we want to use for that game and then it says unfortunately we have encountered an error, please email the support email. Like it just keeps doing the same thing. We were able to do one game yesterday but we havent been able to do anything since then and Im not sure why its not working. Ive emailed the support twice, but they never got back to us.
Update the game like you did with Big Win Football. Itll bring more people back. Add new things adding new things also or at least a new feature to look at the court.
Decent game but your simulation is horrible. Our team is an overall 96 and we played against a team that was overall 63 and lost by 1 point. How is the score even close, Im using 3 gold cards and they had basics. Our players are way more advanced. Fix your game, thats just pathetic.
The game can be such much more and better make a our career give us the option to control our player instead of just watching him give us controls this game can go far.
If you dont spend any money, you lose almost every game you play. Our 80 overall team regularly loses to 40-50 overall teams even though when our team was 40 overall it got crushed by every team over 60 overall. They make you lose as many games as possible so you spend money on big bucks.
Its honestly pretty fun to play when your really bored also add us on snap owen.33.
