Did they make shooting easier?
Never forgiving my cousin for telling me to join elite, he said everyone went elite last year so thats the best one to join lol
I still feel like it’s the same. It’s easier a tad bit but I always knew my jump shot timing so it just gave me a boost
I just went elite because last year it had play n shooting boosts n I didnt see anything about boosts this year but figured I would in case
Open shot consistency is much better
Yeah open shots specifically feel much more consistent
Got a 73 three n I'm something in the low 50s from 3 in Rec this szn
Last szn I think I ended at 41%
I feel like it got worse in some cases. Im currently shooting 62% but some games i literally cant make shots. Like when 2k wants me to have a bad game its nothing you can do. Bad catch after bad catch.
Could just be everybody having more repetition in their jumpers nkw
Catch animations are the only thing that seem to make me miss
Pre patch i was 52% so idk, it may balance out
If I get the stutter step or the stiff leg or something stupid but it feels like if you get a normal catch animation the jumpers are really consistent now
I'm 10% higher than last szn too so I do feel like it's easier
even dribble pullups arent consistent they change every time thats the only time i miss
It's definitely not bad
Worth it for animations but find something else to take down
For what
Get yourself a 75 driving dunk for Dwight Howard n other dunk packages
Alright
2k what the actual hell are you doing. 3 games in a Row booted for no reason…
I think its 75 lemme check before I give you wrong info
What would you take down?
Other than that tho it all comes down to how you wanna play
These youtubers can have the best build in the game but its only the best build in the game because they know how to use it
Does 87 post control specifically get you any badges?
This an accurate wemby build?
Like if you go down a cpl what do you lose here
I'd say so but you can honestly do it at 7'3 this year
40 ball handle for pro animations and start your combos out of Paolo go to shot
No
Why
You cant do anything on the ball so you need higher pass acc
anyone know the quickest way to hit level 40 without spending money
its almost impossible if you dont have hof pass
If you have commitments like school or work its gonna take almost constant winning
Pro am is pretty good for season levels
I don’t understand, why are randoms in theater so bad?
And it locks me in with the worst of the worst immediately when I walk in
2k is back bros!
2K is not back buddyo @upper ridge
This game is the worst 2K in 2K history
2K23 was better
yo
What's up coons
What do yall prefer park park or the theater?
This has got to be the worst patch ever released in a 2k game. This is a disgrace to the players who actually want to enjoy the game. Thanks Mike and the dev team. Good job!!!
Everything that made the game good got removed and every bug that was in the game still didn’t get fixed
Never wasting money on a 2k game again. I know other people feel the same
Does layup mixmaster not activate all the time?
Im right sticking
And its doing fancy lay animations
But its not popping up on the feed
I’m sick to my stomach with the randoms I get. I was 3/4 from 3pt, it is a close game, and the center kept inbounding to the other kid going 2/10. Can someone please explain
This game is better then most
I was gonna say to make a game every 2 years but I don’t want to be stuck with this pos of a game any longer then I have to
This game tuff u js need to cope
Zip it up when ur done, Jesus
Maybe u js need to tuck it
Skill matters in this game😢
Let’s start locking in now
If you missed out just hit me up if you wanna get on the next parley
They stopped catering to u casuals and u guys have all to whine about

See that’s the issue. “Casuals” make up 90% of the games player base. If you think I wanna get on the game after work and have to try hard against people I don’t know and don’t care about then ur sadly mistaken
Bruh its better than what we had
tell him delete his build & delete the game
I agree it’s better than last year but it still sucks
I'd say this game is good because it appeals to both
This game is better then the last 4 2ks, they add skill based FOR CASUALS and u guys still can’t hang
And the two years before
The only complaints I have are the shot meters and contests
I have it on for layups only
But the issue is the skill based matchmaking is still broken and inconsistent. Atleast make it consistent
Use real player % 2k labs tested u have the highest chance of making it on real player
stop defending 2k and stop riding Ronnie and Mike wang
Or don’t play matchmaking?
I’m not, I think this game could be better, but I don’t think it’s terrible, I just feel like the 2k community can ever be happy
No game is perfect. U will never like 100% of the aspects of a game
The reason 2k is terrible is because it has monopolized the basketball game market so whatever game they drop people will buy since theres no competition
Don’t play it if you don’t like it, but whining abt it in a discord for the 2k community is just idiotic
What am I gonna play then. Mycareer!?!?? In key games they removed the sim by 25 in the 3rd quarter and made it so you have to wait til the 4th to sim. If you think I’m gonna play that any longer I have to ur sadly mistaken
Play park, or play proving grounds
No sbmm in either
U can play plats or u can play no ranks
park is just bot galore
I agree 110%. It’s because take-two signed an agreement with the nba that stops any other company from making a basketball game. Just like what happened to nba live
Or come to stage and mess with ur boy
the 2k community as a whole is the worst gaming community of all time and most toxic by far.
It’s so annoying
they are toxic but they're also like a special level of dumb
idgi
i wanna say its cuz most of them are 10? but idk
Every single sport game community is like this
Like cod players go against cheaters every game, are the most toxic human beings, and they still don’t whine as much as this spoiled community
Especially eafc which is even worse than 2k
They expect it to be the NBA it’s the game.
yeah. I can’t tell you how many guards I’ve played with who shoot 2-11 1-9 and don’t pass the ball and if you tell them pass they get mad
not madden
The nba live community wasn’t toxic. Its not every sport game community
yeah people who play football all have cte so they cant possibly comprehend anything complex
I just don’t understand, I personally love this game, I think it’s one of the better 2ks since 21
Will they ever fix the rec loss shi bro omg these devs suck
So they just accept whatever game they get even though people run the same broken play every time and its impossible to stop
People just don’t put in enough time, my first 30-40 hours I thought I was going to tuck it until 2k30
yall think 5’9s can be viable in 1s or 2s?
Not 1s
Madden sucks. Cfb better
nobody gonna play 2k when gta6 come out and Ronnie and Mike wang will be out of a job 🙏
who cares lol my point stands
If u have 94+ stl and a big with high interior, on top of a high speed to make paint switches u should be perfectly fine
Ik lol
max interior you can rlly get on a 5’9 is like a 50 tho
oh nvmm
my fault i aint read it right
Ea community better than 2k community
After season 2 the game basically gonna stay the same and we gotta deal with it
U good brother
They are amazing builds tho
I love my 5’9 I have 5 guard builds and it’s my favorite
yeah i made one recently and i have 200k saved up rn
Did u upgrade it?
js dk if i wanna upgrade it yet
nah not yet
cant rlly find one that i like thats good without cap breakers
and im like 80% to starter 2 so im not gonna have em for a min
Send me build
In my DMs
bet
I can help u optimize it
Let’s just say somebody wants to switch from a 6’7 to a small-ish guard. What would be the meta 🤔
What do u mainly play?
I have 5 guard builds so this is def my specialty
Anything 1s or 2s
No 3s?
just sent @patent sonnet
Bet one sec
Nah. My one homeboy dipped after the 4th day of the game and ain’t never seen him again
Bet I would make a 6’3-6’6
like I remember when clothes in 2k wasn’t expensive at all and now it’s 12k for a damn hoodie 🤦♂️
6’6s are able to stop paint mashers if u make them right, where 6’3s will be more perimeter and offensive dominant
dawg i bought a shirt for 8k💀
got inflation in 2k. crazy.
😭🙏🏼
Can’t escape it unfortunately
Going home after a long day of theater.
That’s happened to me before lmao
🙂↕️
Shi so funny 😭
dawg i was running 3s and my teammates left i needed my ai to score 1 point to win and he passes to a AI with max points and he shoots and we lose
Use it on me 👀
That’s insane 😭
Send build
Hi
shafted myself hella
was thinking BH and get the +4 and sink it all into that as well
like I honestly want to know if rec randoms have any brain cells
none
@ionic salmon if we had the option to queue with 4 AI partners we would... 
thats sad
Ball handle or speed
facts
Yay
low 3 ball and low mid range. I’m curious what ur build looks like lol
Anyone else can’t play rec because it keeps kicking me out the games @here
Go ravens
is having a high speed attribute important
Why are dunks so booty juice
Finally 99
Ye easy blocks or recover on defense
Frr
I have 99 dunk
Driving
I miss it on people whi have bronze paint protector
It needs a fix
6'9s are stupid
no way should a 6'9 be jumping higher than a 7'0 with 90 rebounding
trash game
ever since this update my rebounding avg is going down
And box out IQ
they did something to rebounding
idk tbh
I be in rec fighting for my LIFE
bro tempo is terrible i cant hit an open shot at all bro
i just missed 5 shots all because of tempo
someone has to talk to me man
Blud I get knocked out of lobs animations and contact dunks by midgets it not even funny
why is it taking me so long to get into a pro am 3v3
Fax
Need a shooting Center. 4 ready
How do I check my hot zones
Y’all don’t understand how much I hate rhythm shooting
Nvm
They should’ve never added it
🤣🤣🤣
Me over here rhythm shooting averaging 55% from 3 shooting
You’re gonna hate it once you find out you can shoot fade aways with it now
Them other dudes some hot crap. 💀💀
Idk how I won bro
Idk these ais be good ash. I played a ai the other day. He made 3 3 pointers in a row
💀💀
Im probably gonna hit veteran 1 this year and call it raps 💀💀 idc abt legend that much
I like rhythm shooting
I’m almost starter 4, idec after that tbh
Im starter 3 but idk if i wanna keep grinding
People like to complain instead of jumping ship. Mike wang himself said that rhythm shooting would be better when the game came out. But now its a problem 💀💀
Ima switch to bo6
Facts
Double H even uses it 💀💀 and some of you complaining most likely watch him
Solluminati needa come back frfr ima need his build because i alr know its fire
That dude cashout alr legend 1 pshhh 💀💀
facts the goat needs to return
Serious Question:
Left Stick dribblers, why do you not dribble with the right stick? I see players with 80+ ball handle not using the right stick at all.
Like I'm actually curious whats the thing the with the left stick? Cause most of the times it doesn't work so why still stay dribbling like that?
Left stick can make ur dribbles glitchy
I use it alot
All open shots btw
That happened to me the last game i played i punched the crap outta my desk and got off
Got back on a hour later went 4/4 from 3
some games feels like i cant hit a shot to save my life
Other games im playing really well
95 OVR Guard Build
When does double rep start ?
Been started
If I’m a center that never dribbles do I need speed at ball at all I do post moves and standing dunks
It ends 3am est
no
https://x.com/steezo_the_god/status/1848532223026176482?s=46 When Steezo is saying defense doesn’t matter you know you cooked the game 💀💀💀
Recent patch ruined rhythm shooting and NBA 2K25 overall. The game was better before. They buffed square shooting but left the contest system non existent so everyone just jacks mindless shots until they drop. THE DEFENSE DOES NOT MATTER. Shits unplayable.
Yeah lol
And my rhythm shooting feels worse than before patch
Yeah defense sucks now
u really gotta play some d now
Even if u in their face they can make it
Its gonna say light pressure
Barely any tights
Should I have 67 steals as a center or nah
game is not fun rn
everyone's running around hitting fading 3s
and middies
no one dribbles
fix yo mf game
anyone trynna get free wins in theater without getting double teamed?
U could
yup they introduced rhythm shooting just to buff button shooting now
So now its like no point shooting with stick
I missed 2 straight shots and I got very late & great tempo
the green window must be when the passed ball touches my hand cause ain’t no way
My tempo is rarely off
Its weird
I do lowkey
How do I do the Donna method on ps?
Its like a subconscious thing cuz of the way the defense could be playing me
Look up rocky 2k
When the double rep for rise end
They patched it this patch?
3am est
no
Thx
I never done the method but bouta try it
Nah
It’s even easier on box
I found a way to finesse to where I do it even faster
Can i still get the quest if i lose playoffs in 1st season?
Lowkey dont feel like playing all ts
hi
you know the race of the week? do you get anything for second place?
Do I have to hit all 10 for my lethal or do I just have to outshoot Matthew?
Need comp lock add me @cfnlol
I’m ngl this glitch actually looks bannable
glitch
They fix the record reset ?
no
you know the race of the week? do you get anything for second place?
Nah I don’t think so
At the track, on the race of the week do you get anything for coming second or is it just the 1 mill for 1st?

Can u get a bear trap permit if black bears are getting into ur trash?
Yeah I have a great Shaq build
Like Shaq but with better defense
dont buy the game bro save yourself
Yes
impossible to play ts and just vibe. it’s always something 🤦🏿♂️
I agree
thank you
On bro
it takes longer to get through the games now too
u gotta be up 40 in the 4th quarter 😂
when do i level up bru i been hella active
What are the two patches that have been uploaded overnight? Just had my second pop up
yeah what was the update?
I just had a second show up
yoyo anyone playing'
I can actually pass up court now
My PS5 keeps shutting down late 3rd or early 4th quarter in domination games. I swear it happens when I have 2xp coin active. Anyone else have this issue? I can play any other game for hours with no issues
someone hmu with a nice rec guard build 🙏
94 three
appreciated
Third patch just hit for a restart
Where's the defense
What’s the best way to get VC
You’re joking right
probably mycareer
85 perm it’s a guard I fake interior I still have bronze immovable and all perm badges silver, I keep the 99 3ball 95 handle pgs locked up
Mostly yeah, 82 agility is enough to keep up and 85 perim is enough to actually get contests
But having not even bronze interceptor feels bad
I am hands up locked to their hip all game
I avg a steal a game ya don’t need steal
Just played a game where the SG couldn’t play defense with 10pts on his head so I switched… stopped his man the next 3 possessions… then he decides to double team saying “I got him”
Lanes are free just can’t be reaching outa place
Can someone explain this random for me
He added that he was “just standing still, not trying”
They gotta fix this ai i stg
None of em can shoot
I just got loaded into a rec game with all ai teammates
I won but they dead made like 2 shots all game wide open
Look at ts
Same thing happened to me but my AI’s weren’t that bad..
I think the AI’s have a mind of their own
Facts my ai’s refused to pass on any cuts despite me jamming the pass button
So i ended up isoing the whole game lol
I just spammed the pass call every cut 😭
DAMN
😂😂 the self lobs are crazy this year with tall players
Messing around trying to learn my kd build and the lobs are crazy
spin jumper
what time the nba is back players come out?
come again eric?
the new myteam players
I really wish I can get a refund for all the vc I’ve bought since 2k19. This game is so garbage yet we continue to allow them to get away with this scam. What patch did they even do???? Paint defense is non existent. Shooting is broken AGAIN, steals don’t feel like they were nerfed at all, u get thrown out of almost every dunk animation, standing layups with legend rise up constantly, remaster 2k19 at this point
ohh idk the exact time
They took basketball completely out of the game. Just cheesing behind screens and chucking up terrible shots because defense is broken
Who's in for tonight's NBA plays
They gave in to the "iso demigods" like they do every year.
It’s sad it really is. 2 people I’d love to punch in the face. Mike wang and Ronnie.
I like the game but half the time it dont even look like basketball

10 steals in a row doesn’t happen. Missing wide open layups (which i dont do anyways) is a wnba thing not an nba thing
The game is not playable if u don’t put a decent amount of money into it we expect a good product and every years it’s the same crap
There's no contest on jumpshots. There's no contest in the paint and interior defense doesn't exist. Allowing every guard to dunk and shoot 3s at will.
.
Funny cuz my build is 6’8 and I get thrown out of majority of my dunks against guards. But a 6’4 jumps over me and gets a dunk every time
93 int 93 block too.
Btw i have like 54 interior on my 6’6 and it works just the same as some dudes 90
😭
If they actually made defense equal to the offense then people would have to learn how to actually play the game.
Game will be dead by season 3 like it always is for the last 4 years
Unless they actually decide to FIX THE GAME
but they won’t
I ended up making a 5'9 99 steal build last season cuz stealing is just absurd ... if u cant beat em join em

ima average 10 steals too
Because ngas buying gravity ball so they don’t care they got their money for the year
Games broken guys but don’t worry. Buy a dlc that has nothing to do with basketball
Exactly. I'm still getting ripped after rebounds. It's f' depressing.
the best is when 4 steals in a row happen and ur facepalming like this never happens in basketball
💀
like bruh ima just wait for this dead island 2 update to come out
play 2k when nba players drop podcasts
cuz i cant play this game without ripping my penjamin
I gotta rip it legit every other game or I’ll get locked up in a mental facility
that ur cat in pfp?
Yea
imma steal him. jk
Rec people used to it
No defense. No defense. No defense.
i joined elite😭
if i get to starter 3 then switch
do i still keep the capbreakers
damnnn
i cba to switch then
Gold plates now LOL
i onlt just started my rep thing
played like 20 rec games
rookie 4
i cba atp lmao
i started like this weekend when the 2x rep for rec thing was on
fr? 250 damn
holy
Bruh as a new player to nba games it’s hard
What’s the best way to find people who are new to play with
I'm definitely aiming for Legend 1, I'm not gonna hit legend before other people or anything but I will get there eventually, I'm already at Starter 3 95%
but yeah I've played constantly since the game came out like
you really have to do a lot to get there
no squads is so fried
You could always try to find some people on the discord
but i dont got no teammates
How do I do that
Actually, I need that Giannis crossover for my 6'10 SF
This dc?
ye
This is glaze
What’s best way to get vc
It's not ideal because some of the people here are a little cooked too but you at least know they're people who play the game
Before I would've said MyCareer but they nerfed the hell out of that grind
How do I get to theatre
it still might be MC but it's so much slower than it was
it just pisses me off when ballhogs run around the court to shoot a fade 3 and air ball

i thought this was centel
yeah the biggest part about any mode is all the people who don't pass/only pass to their buddies
How do I get to theatre
Bro this is in every 2k I be hating dat ngl
Like if we just pass to the open man every time we win the game 99% of the time
but people don't get that because they think they're MJ
its nice not having two different shades of gold tbf lol
2K protecting guards.
Like you could be 0/3 but if I see you open in the corner I'm still gonna hit you with the dime
this my first time playing online when i had 23 my game was too delayed to play online
because you wouldn't be pulling them like that if you didn't know you could make it
its aids
I'm done. F' this 2X event.
most people expect you to go 10/10 every game and its the ones who are 1/14 who have these expectations
ig its on us for queueing with randoms but oh well

no like actually, like damn there are games where I go 7/7 from 3, but there are definitely also games where I go 2/7. But that doesn't mean it's not the right play to pass to the open man
Especially because, when they don't make that pass, it's usually so they can go up on 3 guys in the paint and get blocked like
Yo shooting is easier this season right ?
@mental token how do I get to theatre
Feels much better
definitely
If you're a guard.
across the street from MyCourt
Glad I’m not the only one
the way my games go is pretty funny. nobody on my team can score besides me, i go 8/8... miss 1, dont get the ball for an entire qtr cuz i missed one and they keep missing and eventually the ball comes back to me and the game is outta reach
And where is that like I said I’m new
Rn I’m shooting 50 percent on 76 three 6’6 sg through 12 games. Ik that’s a small volume amount but it feels much better shooting than last season for me
You typically spawn in around your MyCourt, or at least outside the subway. You can look at the map to see better
defense is so bad but i've been having way more success getting around screens and not sliding by only using L2 when im trying to gut bumpy with the ball handler and trying to just tap it instead of holding it, and also breaking the habit of holding RS up too much
yeah holding up right stick makes your lateral movements slower
Yeah when I first started I was like wth yall doin 😭
I am standing in front of my team court building it looks like
I always play left stick defence and use the trigger when it’s a good time to use it so I feel that. I never put the RS up tho unless I know my man will def shoot
I hate when ppl ball hog then air ball I just laugh
I just got the hang of my jumpshot at the of season 1 and they change it.
How tall are you ?
And what was you using ?
Yeah if there's a screen, I let go of L2 to run over it (or under if my guy can't shoot). Depending on who I'm playing with, I might switch with my big and just guard the screener.
Yeah well I'm having sf worm around my hof box out.
7'1
the only thing for me when it comes to jumpshots is mine seem to be so inconsistent when pulling up... its either really fast or REALLY slow and it throws off my timing hard
The MyTeam Court? Like the entrance to the Triple Threat Park?
and not just normal jumpshots, dribble pullups and post fades
Someone told me shooting on a big felt better than guard shooting. I wasn’t sure about that statement tho
theres a different animation for if you're still holding left stick when starting the pull up opposed to letting go of it before starting the shot
@dark prism its cuz shooting with guards is fast
and thats intentional
lol'
Idk. Whatever changes they made, they made things worse.
i always hold it
letting go is the worst animation tbh
its too slow
@mental token why does it say theatre is closed come back later
depends on ur pull up package tbh
i use mj
it just reminded me the most of kobes and they locked that
behind the rep system
couldn't tell ya, you're on 2K25 right?
All they needed to do was slightly buff interior d and the game would have been great.
@bright venture try KCP
No 23
is it butter?
aight bet
23
ahhh, that's the problem. The 2K23 servers are going down at the end of the year
damn they did my boy KCP good this year?
they're probably just prepping for that
coming from a person who has played this game competitively since 2k17, 2k is by far one of the worst games if not thee worst to play competitively. Everything in the game is RNG based and most of everything in the game is chalked up to percentage. 2K game developers try their absolute best to make the game 50/50 no matter skill level. The game has an amazing concept that honestly surpasses any game on the market, but its incredibly casual and skill discrepancy is barely noticeable unless you're exploiting something like close shot rhythm fades like in season 1. for all the sweaty gamers out there that really put in the hours such as myself, don't expect to find something consistent in the game. almost every single facet of this game is
RNG
@mental token I can’t afford 25
If you wait until around Christmas time, it usually goes on a pretty big sale, something like 20$
yeah when I bought 23 it was around Christmas for 20$
thought u woulda had to wait for at least spring
i shoulda waited for christmas
LOL
might've been just after the new year but
LMAO I was really thinking about it but
I found it for 55$
😮 DAYUM
But now everyone guard and undersized forward are dunking and hitting 3s for fun. Whilst big men are left with there d in their hand.
so it was worth it
ahh gotcha
@flat salmon i enjoy this game so much more since i stopped taking it so seriously like i did a few years ago
pre patch at least, this was probably my favorite 2k gameplay in a long time
interior D is nonexistant right now, big men can definitely bully down low
that's how I feel idk
seems harder
they overcorrected a bunch of stuff in this patch but i expect itll go back to somewhere in the middle in the next patch
It's getting their without getting ripped.
im like hitting 1/3 post fades now that was my guaranteed go-to!!
interior D has been by far the biggest problem the whole year tho
agreed. The only problem was the lane steals/rebound steals, and contests were a little weak. But now they didn't even fix rebound steals, they made it so you have to jump to get a contest, AND they made shooting too easy
i was shooting 60% pre patch lol they definitley didnt need this buff
yeah no kidding, Silver Unpluckable my tail end, ts is useless
like actually everyone's % went up like 10%
strong ball handle betta
hard to get on a big
My 6'10 SF only gets Bronze Unpluckable, which doesn't feel great when guys just run at me after a rebound and start spamming X
do park games reset training gym? i wanna be able to do my badges
@mental token pre patch the biggest problems were interior D, real player % layups, rhythm post fades, bump steals off of rebounds/ catches, and superman steal animations. literally cant believe people were complaining about shooting more than anything lmfao
Exactly the averages were 30-50%. Which is literally the same as the NBA.
Basketball season is upon us! Join my league "Valhalla Destiny 3.0"

draft at 2 free league
bruh i was shooting 59% from 3 with an 83 3pt on a guard before the patch @shut jetty
i made a new build with an 85 3pt and since patch im at 70% this buff was so unnecessary
idk
still liking the gameplay despite its problems
still don’t understand going 4/6 and then 0/7 next game
Just tell me this. As interior d ever been tweaked?
skill issue fr
@shut jetty this year? or mid year in other 2k's?
In general?
i dont think they did anthying to interior D this year, i think they usually don't make too many changes to that aspect of the gameplay
So basically, I'm gonna be grabbing my random guards bricks while on defense my forehead becomes a runway?
Whilst that same random guard tries defend with bronze perimeter defense badges.
Like actually, shooting was fine??? can't believe they listened to the casuals on twitter who shoot 30% taking contested bs
@mental token people found out they weren't as good as they thought they were and everyone lost their minds
like this game actually SOMEWHAT resembles basketball in some areas of gameplay now and people are devastated that they cant spam the same moves dancing around screens every single possession
like bro this game is SO much better when every possession of every single game doesn't feel the EXACT same as the one before
I hope i can play nba 2k25 in Android 🥺
now this game is offensive oriented. lmao
How is donna glitch not patched
lol
Not complaining though
Anyone got a jump shot for 79 3s 7 foot center
Yeah exactly. If they just reverted shooting to what it was in Season 1, removed steals off rebounds, and gave a slight buff to interior defense, this game would feel great
No poppers awake ?
idk about the rest of them but I'm at work lmfao
We l him
This and make it so setting screens cost an adrenaline bar
I feel like this is ts that they would ban/wipe VC for
agreed, but only if the defender actually runs into the screen. But they def need to make some sort of "punishment" for constantly screening
Yea def
And that’s more what I meant not losing adrenaline for trying to set the screen but actually losing a bar when someone hits your screen
yeah that definitely makes some sense, even from a "realism" perspective
someone runs into you, you're not gonna be at full physical form for a sec there
I will say, at least they're trying to listen to the community more this year. The problem is that they listened to the wrong people when they buffed shooting.
96% of the time they listen to the wrong people
I will give them credit tho
This is so far the best 2k for next gen consoles
Idk wtf they doing with gravity ball but overall the gameplay is the best it’s been in years
oh yeah, and the fact that that coincides with the first 2K on PC to get next gen is a massive upgrade
And like I've noticed FAR less cheaters on PC than any year in the past
not saying they're non-existent, but they're clearly actually trying to do something about it
Fortnite ruined gaming as a industry
Smh nobody cares
yeah I'm gonna look at that for what it is; they were messing around, made something they thought would be a fun game, and threw it in because they could. I think it probably is fun, just should've been a separate game
Where tf the poppers at
no yeah exactly like every game doesn't need to have 100 game modes that are unrelated to the core gameplay
2k screens been an issue since 2k20
where it drags you into a vortex
and holds you there
They made to much money and now everyone is trying to copy what they did to get in on the hype
even with 99 strength
and legend pick dodger
if a guard with no brick wall sets a screen
you get dragged in
like actually
Most locks gonna have it bronze at least
until they fix the damn screens and defense. 2s just gonna be set screen shoot if dude goes under. if he goes over run to corner fade
it's impossible to stop this nonsense
yeah I get Gold Brick Wall on my lock
and i might end up permanently not playing 2s
2s is just so boring
call me an old head but I prefer Rec over every other mode
Idk how yall play any mode not 5s
literally like
i play 3s
Better games bigger court
I’ve found the most fun with rec with a full 5
but my buddy keeps bugging me to get on 2s
and we lose to random junk
cuz defense doesn't exist
or he throws 10 turnovers
💀
Theater and anything else is just screen screen fade 5’9 guard 6’7 PF 7’ center
also the fact that people in 2s and 3s are always playing "meta sweat" builds and the people in Rec are usually just playing some fun stuff that they like
It’s a lot easier for diff builds to be viable in rec as opposed to a 3v3 setting
or it's 2 7'3 centers getting every board and spamming post moves
Like one of my buddies was playing PG except he can't dribble or shoot and he said "I just wanna drive and kick" so we made him a 6'8 Ben Simmons build and he's actually doing really well on it
you and me both, but this is closer than we've been in ages to real basketball
this game is better than 24
oh fs
but too many unnecessary things we doing
leagues better
post scoring is still bad
24 was such a disaster
can't play proper hands up defense
i don't get how a mechanic that's been in 2k since i was a kid is broken now
Dunk meter was the worst to play against in 24 LMAO
anyone who liked 24 is someone who sucks at shooting and liked having their hand held so they could just rip 3s all game
Mike wang said jump
can't stop anyone who's just off ball rimrunning
Hands up doesn’t do nothing
dude doesn't even put his hands up
Dunk Meter is lowkey a little under powered right now, but I don't want it to be too broken
If you wanna play proper defense you gotta jump
It’s fine where it is, it was too broken in 24
ts is so stupid because in real basketball, you don't wanna just jump at everything
but I'm out here just pressing Y every time because Mike Wang said so
pump fake? too bad I already pressed Y, because if I didn't, you get an open shot
2k is going in a direction that would make me not want to play this too
i already quit fifa
Something tells me Mike Wang couldn’t make his JV team in HS
might be that time for 2k
Once bo6 comes out zombies is probably all I’m playing
This is only because my friends enjoy basketball
i get the jumping part if you're isaiah thomas
And won’t touch anything else
yeah no like, if I'm 6'10 with a 7'3 wingspan, why tf I gotta jump at the 6'6 guy in the corner when I'm close enough to get in his face with hands up
they're tall enough to where they can just hands up and you won't see anything
If I have to jump to get a contest on EVERY SHOT
It’s not realistic play
whomever designed this contest system just doesn't watch basketball
6’1 guards getting open contest cause my 7’0 standing there with his hands up and not jumping is crazy work
or understand how humans work
i still think dexing is broken
if i do that in real life my acl would snap in half
My favorite thing to do in game
I abuse dexing way too much
it drags you from the paint to the 3 point line
But.. it’s what you gotta do to compete
cuz of the pass
It’s either a open 3 or I’m blowing by you for a dunk
try doing opposing forces of momentum on a human body
irl
2k lost physics
every rebound just flies to narnia
bro
can't stop the offensive player from getting O boards even if they have 30 and no badges
A 6’7 PF should not be getting a rebound over my 7’ friend who has 92 rebound and a perfect box out
can't stop dunks in the paint when i'm sitting there making contact with 80 interior
everything's open
Playing as a big sucks with randoms
You did it
Wdym
I’m never playing this game with randoms ever again
standing dunks need a nerf
They have a mind of their own
Who's in for tonight's plays
So they big can shoot so I gotta play up on that then you people can’t do your job of not letting them get to the paint easy
DUDE I cannot stand rec if I have 3 people and I get 2 randoms
So I have to fall back then that’s swinging to the open man for 3
rec sucks
i keep facing broken ais
that get every lane steal
and shoot from half court
Egos is a mf
People who have a ego on 2K are the ones that suck
Hit Me up for safe winnings on tonight's plays
you’re not Steph curry pass the ball to the open corner please
Man what
They only know iso ball
Don’t try and introduce new topics to the man
I respect guards who iso
no
even a kid who's never touched 2k can do that
just hold left or right
press and hold square when you're open
it's dumb
Timmmyjunior4818 can sit behind a screen and shoot when the contest system is so broken
that's kinda the reason i quit 2k
24 had better defense
by a mile
how do we progressively go backwards
this game feels more like 2k21 current gen
with all the zens and stupid mechanics
Surprisingly I haven’t ran into one zen user YET
only thing that's going forwards is the price i gotta pay to play the game
70$ usd
pc has auto green scripts
and it's worse now cuz of the buff
everyone's going 100%
People fr build bigs just to screen and shoot and guards just to go left right and dance in the screen and wings just to sit in the corner
?
How is dancing left and right on the screen just to get a open shot fun tho
You can fr build a pure lock but you will never be able to guard the left right screen
Why are randoms iq so low
You need to beat the screen, press down court so they can’t get space to get a screen set between yall
you can't
If a guard can just left right and get open and shoot on you it’s cause they can do it and you can’t stop it, that’s a you problem, they’re just cheesing you lacking
regardless of what you do
Yes you can wtf you mean I play point
i have a 99 perimeter and 99 steal
Silver pick dodger
and i get dragged into the screen
and dude just runs right out the other way
and greens a fade
happens too many times on pc
If you get ran into a screen and continue through it it will get called illegal screen
If you are on their hip the screen can’t get between you
You need to press them before
Steal doesn’t matter you need agility
Pc not for 2k tbh yall are delusional
if they add an anti cheat
and stable servers
it'd be fun
but no same issues since 2k14
That’s why you can’t play on pc you can literally edit games
Randoms in Theater got the IQ of a doormat
i'm not buying a console just to face the same issues with worse performance on other games
dudes zenning on console
There’s not even zens this year
That’s a corny way of saying I can’t buy a console
A pc is computer and no matter how much you put into it it will never be for gaming like a ps5 or Xbox
Unless you’re literally playing computer games
i refuse to buy a console is not saying i can't buy a console
my graphics card alone costs 3 times a ps5
i'm not wasting money on a console that underperforms at every aspect
to play one game
Sounds like a waste if you can’t get good games good on ya
hahaha making ur jumpshot timing difficulty based on rookie mode for the art of shooting challenge makes it sooo easy

went 30/30
Left right screen dancers are so corny
“You can’t guard me”
Get the screen off brother is a cone
take the screen out
bro goes left he's boxed
bro goes right he's boxed
then he deletes 2k
My rec squad best defender can lock them without the screen
i can play regular defense
i barely get beat onball
i do get stuck on screens though
Why does rhythm shooting not register as a rhythm shot sometimes
@proper plover remove rhythm shooting it’s one of the worst things in the game
Best way imo to properly counter it is have 2, 6’7-6’9 locks with hella wingspan and agility
then we get no boards
Then switch when he goes through the screen
cuz everyone's on some 7'0 big with 99 offensive rebound
That’s when you have a center
Ts real dawg
