[mental token]

imo

[brisk eagle]

You can say should’ve for a lot of series

but clutch time matters

Celtics were not good in the clutch

[vivid saffron]

or injury luck

[mental token]

Porgingis's injury really screwed us but

[brisk eagle]

U guys made it to the finals without porzingis last year no problem

what exactly made him important this year?

[mental token]

Yeah I mean, I'm honestly just more upset that we didn't get a chance to face the Pacers for a rematch, or the Thunder, because both of those would've been awesome series to see

[vivid saffron]

the whole team kinda regressed so he’s needed more

[mental token]

Jrue was better last year, he regressed for sure. Horford got older, which didn't help. Notably, Pritchard and Kornet both got better, which helped, but Tillman and Hauser got worse.

[vivid saffron]

Brown got worse

[mental token]

The biggest thing though was that, yes we made the finals last year without Porzingis, but also, everyone we faced had some sort of injury issue except the Pacers

No Jimmy Butler, Cavs had a myriad of injuries. Not saying it was a lucky fluke for us to make it, but their injuries counteracted the KP injury

[brisk eagle]

is Sam hauser contract bad now

[vivid saffron]

Tatum their Ironman was their only hope until he stopped being Ironman

[mental token]

Yeah kind of, his defense and his shooting were both a little worse last year compared to 24. If he can bring those back, it'll be fine, but I know they were at one point thinking about having to trade him

[brisk eagle]

Yeah jimmy butler vs Celtics 2024 would of been fun

he prob wins a game singlehandly

[vivid saffron]

Celtics would’ve destroyed them

[mental token]

Yeah I think it would've made the series 4-2

instead of 4-1

[brisk eagle]

U sure about that

[mental token]

Jimmy would've willed them to a win

and they had that other win

but I think the Cs still come out on top

[vivid saffron]

Watch most of their regular season games vs other contending teams when they were healthy

They ravaged all of them

Except the nuggets

[brisk eagle]

Brad Steven’s fell off

[brisk eagle]

If u watched playoff jimmy you know this

[mental token]

it's more that the CBA is so turbo restrictive now

CJ McCollum count your days

[vivid saffron]

he got tired of getting bta from the warriors every szn

[brisk eagle]

Im shocked we never gonna get a Celtics-nuggets finals

[mental token]

he can get over it, team should've drafted better like they did

That's what pisses me off about the CBA now

[brisk eagle]

Hes on the wizards, Hes already preparing announcement

[mental token]

you can draft right, get a few edge pieces in FA/trades, and 2-3 years later, you'll have to dismantle major portions of your team

[brisk eagle]

I like it because my team is usually bad

[mental token]

it's genuinely so stupid

[brisk eagle]

now u guys get to feel my pain

[brisk eagle]

it’s gonna give other teams opportunity which I like

basically every good team in 3-5 years is gonna br rebuilding

and then the teams bad rn are prob gonna be contending

I especially want the hornets to do something

[vivid saffron]

bros CJ mccullum himself

[brisk eagle]

their fan base needs a playoff win

[brisk eagle]

It just makes sense for me

[vivid saffron]

I don’t wanna see no Utah Jazz being good

[brisk eagle]

I do, it’s gonna get rid of the same teams every year being good

[gaunt saddle]

Hi!

[brisk eagle]

Utah jazz were good 3 years ago btw

[mental token]

There's no problem with the Jazz being good. But the problem is it punishes teams who draft well, which shouldn't be the case. If you draft someone, and you develop them into a good player, you shouldn't be essentially forced into letting them walk in FA or trading them because you can't afford them anymore, unless you made an awful decision with your cap space.

[strong dirge]

Hi

[brisk eagle]

good thing trades are an option

okc thunder have the Strat @mental token

look at what THEYRE doing

I would bet a lot that they win another championship next 5 years

[mental token]

wait 3 years and see what their team looks like. They'll either lose a lot of their role players, or be forced to trade one of JDub or Chet

[brisk eagle]

Presti literally said the Strat already

keep those 3 stars

and trade role players for draft picks

sign good veteran minimums

and draft good rookies

[vivid saffron]

@mental token what’s SGAs attributes

For 2k26

[mental token]

If they make no moves, they're 24M over the 2nd apron already in the season after this one. And that's without signing any rookies, or any free agents, or anything

Message me for discord

[vivid saffron]

wow so SGA is higher rated than Jokic

By like 4 attributes

Why’s his intangibles so high

[mental token]

because he's good and if they were lower then he's be lower rated. Lowkey, the way that they do intangibles in 2K, they mostly just give a player higher intangibles to boost their overalls, and lower intangibles to lower their overalls. I've seen guys lose 2 overalls and none of their stats changed but their intangibles

[vivid saffron]

so how’s Jokic a 75 and SGA a 98?

Is that a intended cap so Jokic wouldn’t be a 99?

[mental token]

Jokic's other ratings are already so high

yeah that if they increased it he'd be a 99

[vivid saffron]

Idk why they would do that

my guess is that they glaze LeBron

I don’t think curry was ever a 99

[mental token]

I think the highest he ever was was a 96

[pine python]

I don't know if they're just assuming Tatum fell off due to the injury, but just off of what we've seen so far, I can't believe they have Ant over Tatum

[strong dirge]

Who u think gone be #1

Luka being 95 I can understand because he had a poor end to the season

been knew this

[ornate hill]

Al

[mental token]

like why the hell is Austin Reaves an 85

he's realistically like, an 82-83

but everyones ratings are inflated

so

[remote kelp]

Amen should be a 90 tbh

He been ballin

[ornate hill]

2K has inflated ratings m

[lethal trail]

nobody in the league should be a 98

[mental token]

Amen is good, a great defender, but there's no chance in the world that he should be a 90 LOL

[ornate hill]

What do y’all think about ANT being a 95 over curry?

[surreal cypress]

Where the live stream? No way they just switched the day to Friday when all the others been on Thursday

[remote kelp]

Idk mane

2k does this typa stuff

[mighty coyote]

I thought there was myteam news today

[mental token]

2K16 Kevin Durant was a 91 and Russ was an 89 LOL Amen isn't on that level quite yet

[ornate hill]

Im more surprised they actually touched LeBron overall

[mighty coyote]

What is he

96

[ornate hill]

94

[mighty coyote]

Not bad

[ornate hill]

I think that’s fair

[mighty coyote]

Understandable

[ornate hill]

Although I think Steph should be a 95 like ANT

[torn pewter]

btw top 10 in 2K20 started at 91 gen, now it start at 93-94

[ornate hill]

But whatever

[torn pewter]

idk if i like that

[mighty coyote]

Steph should be a 95 yeah

What is he

98

[ornate hill]

94

[mental token]

yeah ratings are way too inflated now

[mighty coyote]

He’ll put me in the game and make me a 76 then

[ornate hill]

They got Austin reaves the same overall as derozan, LAVINE and fox

Fox disrespect is crazy

[mighty coyote]

I’d rather have reeves then derozen

[crude hare]

https://youtu.be/QK8Y5hikAQE?si=-L_4tglo8PWACei-

[mental token]

Nah fr like. Lavine and DeRozan should be 83 or 84, Reaves should be 82, and Fox should be 85

[ornate hill]

Id give Lavine and Derozan a 86 reaves an 83

Fox a 88

[mental token]

I mean again I'm comparing it to how they rated previous 2Ks like

If Russ was a 89 overall in 2K16, I don't think Fox is just like, 1 overall worse than Russ

@charred steeple I've only encountered around 16 cheaters all year. Which seems like a lot, but it's not that bad when you consider that I've got 1500 hours in the game. The cheating problem is significantly less bad than it used to be. And of those 16, 6 of them were in the first month, before they added the anti-cheat.

As far as the online experience, it varies. I've had many issues with the server, the game crashes for me if any device at all is plugged in or unplugged during the game, there's that settings resetting bug that plagues PC and has since 2K16, etc. A lot of varying technical problems. The biggest benefit of PC for me is the ability to mod the game offline to make it look gorgeous and actually realistic.

it's def a good way to test builds before you start adding attributes into your player

exactly.

my objective is def making a build in mc, exporting that build in player dna, import that dna into a player in myleague, then playing myleague for the rest of the year LMAO

The stuff they fixed and added was pretty cool

Man all I need is that practice facility and a packed office 😭

Biggest update for me

[upbeat portal]

I wish we could run official NBA-like practices tho

That’d be fun

[mental token]

Pretty much. My complaint will be if the mode still has issues after like 3 years, where everyone is high overall and expects a ton of money and the salary cap doesn't increase according to real life

[lean venture]

Man, lets see if they added something like that. Either way, the game already clears 25 💀

(Im speaking too sokn, not knowing how the gameplay will feel)

Confidence is high though

he ain’t dat good anymore like back in 21 or 22

[cedar bolt]

See what?

[safe vessel]

If you can or not

[cedar bolt]

Ahhh

[safe vessel]

Did you see how he played last season?

[cedar bolt]

Just dunno if the beta is gonna be account locked or not

[safe vessel]

And every season is top 3 and 4 in mvp least putting numbers

[safe vessel]

I’m not 100% sure but i think it’s gonna be locked

[cedar bolt]

If it is I'm cooked

Fifa it will be untill i get on 💀

I ain't paying the £90 for 7 days early access when I'll get it for free does that make sense

I give him fifa for free so hes missing out on pre order stuff on that so works both ways tbh

[vivid saffron]

Lame

It’s probably because VC

G.sharing the pre order stuff means 100k free vc

That’s basically a war crime to 2k

Also why is that a banned word

[unborn moon]

Too many players in the 90s

[vivid saffron]

Lmao

[normal summit]

💀

[keen mango]

U is tripping

He arguably better now 😹

[gloomy thicket]

that ain’t Ant

[crude hare]

https://youtu.be/QK8Y5hikAQE?si=0vshUaJ_chFu55Nn

[green hull]

Huh

[vivid saffron]

Hell nah he played better on defense in 2020 and probably had his best offensive season in 2022

[green hull]

Bro doesn’t watch basketball

It shows

[gloomy thicket]

definitely a casual

[green hull]

2k26 and football next weekend

Eating good

[quick timber]

Okay chat 2K is starting to look good man

But this is how they tempt us ever year

[keen mango]

Yh u is tripping

[keen mango]

We don’t een know how it looks

[quick timber]

Well gameplay yeah but the story doesn’t look half bad

Well idk we seen gameplay weeks ago tbh

[keen mango]

We did not see the gameplay

We don’t know how it plays until tmrw

[quick timber]

We saw snippets yes, not full fledge gameplay.

[keen mango]

We saw Brandon miller n Klay c&s

Trae coming off a screen

And kyrie dribbling for 1 second

[quick timber]

Yeah snippets

[stone timber]

Looking for solid ppl for Nba2k26 to run with.

2s/ 3s or rec

Dm me if you are interested and willing to collab as a team

Here is my recent clip in rec

https://youtu.be/hDDN4cZhuM4?si=3G6En0I0bdvKof5E

[keen mango]

That’s why we gotta chill 😹

Ts rlly could be asz again

Only thing I’ll say is creators said the dribbling was asz last year at community day

N they was right

Only sum was dr

[quick timber]

I mean I’m saying it looks good from trailer standpoints, I’m not actually gonna buy the game until I see some actually decent gameplay and or creators say it’s decent enough.

I’m waiting at least a week minimum to even buy the game.

[keen mango]

All the creators been saying it’s gonna the best 2k we’ve had in a long time

[quick timber]

Promising but not too promising yet

I’ll just wait until the game drops and hear the community out honestly

[keen mango]

If the dribbling still asz I ain’t buying it ngl

That’s make or break for me

[grave jackal]

They say that every year brodie. They also are under an embargo rn so anyone telling you anything with remotely any detail is just lying

[tired mauve]

Nah one of em ended on the 22nd

[keen mango]

Embargo saying the game is good or the dribbling is fast or sim nation is fried isn’t breaking that

But saying what animations do what n the best builds and reqs/sigs n gameplay is breaking that

[tired mauve]

All ik is im grinding badges in the euroleague fs

I wonder if I can play for the USSR

Animation reqs drop tmr

[weary basalt]

I just saw a tik tok and forgot 2K comes out soon lmao, is it looking at all promising?

[keen mango]

That’s 23 ngl

Got all them sim nation old heads in the comments crying tho😹

[tired mauve]

They took out rhythm boost?

[mental token]

Anthony Edwards, who has never made an All NBA first team, over Tatum, who has made All NBA first team 4 years in a row, I'm so sure

crack smoking take

[shrewd robin]

I refuse to believe thats 2k26

And ik youll basically be burned out in seconds if u spam thay many dribble moves

[grave jackal]

Curry at 9 is hilarious, especially over KD and Bron.

Hali over Cade is insane.

Ja is not a top 17 player.

[mental token]

That's why I'm not falling for it. They aint getting a dollar of my money

[brisk flower]

Bron is 95 min

[grave jackal]

You actually have 0 idea what is listed in the embargo unless you yourself have it on hand.

But the more important point is we hear “the game is different/better/best” every year. Just have to wait and see if the broken clock is right twice a day this time

[bleak berry]

Yo im selling my 2k account ss5 purple on both builds n i got a 2way catch ace and a demigod both 99 Xbox only

[shrewd robin]

The new shot meter is nice, but ik many people would have em off online.

But ima give the devs props, they finally gave us a meter thats easy to read and etc.

[grave jackal]

Ur selling an account on august 21st for a game whose cycle ends in exactly 8 days? Lol

[mental token]

That's so clearly 23 I recognize that snatchback anywhere

[shrewd robin]

Yea wether its 26 or 23.

You and i both know u cant use that many dribble moves in real gameplay.

[bleak berry]

But the account already got 2k26 preorder

[mental token]

Yeah I mean, I couldn't give a rat's you know what about a shot meter though. I don't even use it. I do think it's nice for the people who want it, and they should have it, but they do all these little things that make you go "oh that's nice" except until you realize they didn't fix any of the real problems

[mental token]

Well yeah obviously you'd run out of stam but I think the idea of them saying that isn't to say you can dribble that much, but that you can dribble that quickly and with that kind of comboing

[grave jackal]

So its value is essentially just $100. which someone could just pay for the new game instead of paying extra for 8 days of a game.

You have to sell earlier in the year lol

[tired mauve]

Yall got me

[grave jackal]

Very obviously not 26. The GameStop plugs haven’t even began plugging yet lol

[bleak berry]

But who would wanna spend 150 if the account comes with it for free

[tired mauve]

We get the copies in tmr

[grave jackal]

Because your account means nothing on a new game 😂

[bleak berry]

But that’s a waste of money 😭😭

[grave jackal]

It’s not for “free” ur literally selling the account

How much would the account cost?

[bleak berry]

Not much

[tired mauve]

No shot bro needs $100 that bad get a job

[grave jackal]

Give a price. Not for anyone to buy it. Just give a price

[bleak berry]

700,000😂😂😂😂

[grave jackal]

bc if it’s anything that would cost more than the next game itself no one buying it

Hot tip if u wanna sell accounts: do it before August

[bleak berry]

Plus it’s leave no doubt edition

[grave jackal]

I could just buy the game anyway!

Why would I pay more for the account

[bleak berry]

Ok???????

[grave jackal]

I buy the account for $150 or the game for $150 it’s the same thing 😭

gotta be getting trolled

[bleak berry]

Who said it was 150😂😂

[grave jackal]

Asked what’s your actual price and u said a troll number

It better be less than $150 or u just tryna scam randoms

[bleak berry]

If u not buying im not saying a price that’s dumb ur not interested

[tired mauve]

Shut up gang go get a job

[bleak berry]

😂😂 i always go first

[grave jackal]

I’ll put a price on it that nobody buying that account

[bleak berry]

I have one kiddo

I was just tryna get rid of my account

[grave jackal]

Shoulda done it way before

It has no value

Game is dead in 8 days

[bleak berry]

Bud that’s besides the point

Im technically selling for the people who doesn’t got 26

[strong dirge]

Ik im skipping a year but i think 2k27 will be Amazing 😂

[grave jackal]

But they have to buy it from you…

[bleak berry]

N Dont wanna spend 100 of $ on the game

[grave jackal]

So you’d sell the account for a negative profit? 😭

[mental token]

Great way to get a sale though

[bleak berry]

This conversation over 😭

[tired mauve]

Get a job gang $100 isn’t even half a shift

[mental token]

Pretty easy to convince someone to buy something for $90 that costs $100

[grave jackal]

I mean sure I can sell 100 things if I lose 50 dollars every sale

[grave jackal]

But he would lose $10 lmaoo

[bleak berry]

My guy u just got employed 😂😂😂

[grave jackal]

Just shouldn’t of bought the game anyway

[mental token]

yeah I don't understand it in the first place, this is why I wouldn't preorder ts

[bleak berry]

😂

[grave jackal]

Sell accounts in December and January at the latest lol

Bold to even come in to their official server offering to sell when it’s against their TOS

[bleak berry]

Bro that conversation been over with u still talking about the account u must want it

[strong dirge]

We know yall actually want the account that’s why yall tryna get him to sell it cheaper 🤓😂

[grave jackal]

My bad I didn’t know u were the judge in when conversations end 💔💔💔💔

[bleak berry]

Facts

[mental token]

I got a key with preorder bonuses like, a day before the early access opened for 25. And considering I don't plan to buy another 2K any time soon, I don't understand the logic behind preordering when we all know the game isn't gonna be nearly as good as they make it look

[grave jackal]

Yea bro I really need that ss5 account for 8 days 🔥

[mental token]

I work in marketing, even if a product isn't good or isn't worth what they're charging for it, you always make it look good regardless so people will buy it

[strong dirge]

What rep are yall on 2k25?

I’m v1 close to v2 but I prolly won’t make it

[mental token]

V3, should've been higher but I lowkey stopped playing when Marvel Rivals came out for like, 3 months, and then picked the game back up

I think I would've hit Vet 5 if I played all year

probably not Legend but it would've been nice

[strong dirge]

Yea im tryna hit legend 1 on 2k26 but thats a lot of playing time lol

[mental token]

yeah it's just not worth it imo

I got too many other things to do in my life to be playing that much 2K in one year

Like you have to legit play all year long, nearly every day

I put 1500 hours in and hit Vet 3 like

[strong dirge]

Well me I got time to play 2k a lot 😂

[mental token]

I would've probably had to put 2500 hours in to get to legend

[strong dirge]

Yeah

[mental token]

that's absurd

that's 28.5% of a year

[strong dirge]

2k is literally the only game I play but I play cod every once in a while I’m prestige 10 on cod

[mental token]

Not including sleeping, eating, a job, etc

Like

[strong dirge]

Yeah but if I play around 4-6 hours a day legend should be pretty obtainable by maybe May

[mental token]

If you assume you work 40 hours a week for 50 weeks in a year, that's 2000. Meaning you'd have to play this game more than the amount of time you'd spend working a full time job to hit Legend

Like what the hell

It should not be that long of a grind

It should not require playing this game like it's a job to get there

That's not even like, Legend 5

[strong dirge]

That’s why it’s called LEGEND😂

[mental token]

That's like Legend 1 or 2

[strong dirge]

We become legends

[mental token]

Yeah but shi is 2000 hours not a legendary number of hours? That's as much as a full time job, but not more

Like it's just such a ridiculously long amount of time

[strong dirge]

I wonder how many days does 2000 hours add up to tho

[mental token]

83.33 days

of JUST 2K. 24 hours straight

out of the 365 days in a year

1/4th of your year

just playing 2K

Like that's just unreal

[strong dirge]

I’d take it lol

[mental token]

That's why I'm not getting 26 like

It's absurd that the game even asks you to spend that much time on it

and then asks you to spend $70 a year later to do it all over again

I just think about how many other things I could be doing with that time

Even just playing other games

[strong dirge]

I barely have 29 days played on 2k25 in a whole year, 80 days is 4x the grind😭😩

Bruh this dude on my friends list has 91 days played but he’s still a veteran 😭💀

[scarlet scroll]

2k can we get more options when we using player dna, like just the tendency’s, or just the attributes?

[mental token]

Yeah exactly like, just goes to show how ridiculously often you have to play the game

I'll mod the game and play some MyNBA

and just chill

[strong dirge]

I’m thinking he prolly play other modes tho not just park and theater etc

[mental token]

make it look like ESPN and stuff

[scarlet scroll]

If 2Ktools can do it you can too

[strong dirge]

I’m snitching 😂😭

[mental token]

nothing wrong with modding the game as long as you don't play online with them

[tulip ocean]

improved simulations for MyNBA is actually tuff

[strong dirge]

What even is MyNba

[tulip ocean]

the sim was kinda stupid last year, there would be dumb trades and bad stats

[strong dirge]

I only played play now mycareer(park) and MyTeam before

[tulip ocean]

franchise mode basically

[strong dirge]

oh

[mental token]

^^^

[tulip ocean]

its the best mode imo

[strong dirge]

Is it online or nah

[mental token]

100% the best mode. The first NBA game I ever played was NBA Live 95, and I remember playing through a season and trying to get through to the finals to beat Hakeem's Rockets

[mental token]

It can be, but it doesn't have to be.

[normal summit]

That’s insect💀

[mental token]

You can run an entire season (or many seasons) against AI, or you can have other people control the other teams

[strong dirge]

Oh wait I think I know what that is

[mental token]

I have one where my buddies and I all redrafted a team in the 2010 season, and there were 6 of us controlling different teams

[scarlet scroll]

#giveuscustomteamsinplaynow

[mental token]

PLEASE

this is my biggest ask

Why can I not make custom teams on rosters

[tulip ocean]

MyPlayer dna is actually fire, kind of a makeshift way you can do MyCAREER but with Eras and without VC

[mental token]

and use them in PlayNow

[strong dirge]

I tried it before a while ago on a past 2k but it’s not my cup of ☕️ I like playing online against other people myplayers with your own custom myplayers

[scarlet scroll]

I do sim leagues, please for the love of god just give it to us

[tulip ocean]

im lowkey excited for 2k26 just for the MyNBA but how I was with 2k25 aswell

[strong dirge]

And I love hearing people talking 💩 on the game it’s hilarious 🤣

Every game too

[mental token]

In 23 I made a whole MyLeague with 30 of the best All Time college teams, and ran through a season like that

[strong dirge]

Who won

I want to hit HOF/ MVP on my discord title 😭on this 2k server

[tulip ocean]

also I noticed that jimmy butler finally got a new facescan in the MyCareer trailer

looks fire

bros been looking wack for so long

[mental token]

I think UCLA, or UNC

[scarlet scroll]

Are we getting NCAA teams this year

[strong dirge]

@mental token yo how The F- are you MVP and you joined this server this month ???😭

[mental token]

Both have really good all time teams.
UCLA
Kareem
Bill Walton
Reggie Miller
Russ Westbrook
Kevin Love
Etc

[mental token]

I joined a year ago

this month last year LOL

[strong dirge]

Oh cause I saw on your profile it says August 1th, 2025

[mental token]

oh I got kicked LOL

had to rejoin

they kick you for the most benign stuff

I'll probably get kicked later just because I brought that up

[grave flame]

😭😭

[tulip ocean]

lowkey buns how you gotta buy the $100 edition to get early access, cause ion got money for all that

[mental token]

it's actually so stupid

I'm skipping 26

[strong dirge]

🥾 you’ve been a naughty boy

[mental token]

it's not worth my money

[strong dirge]

Jk

[worldly bridge]

Click this link to join my Clan in Clash Royale! https://link.clashroyale.com/invite/clan/en?tag=GRRG29JL&token=wytah69w&platform=iOS

[worldly bridge]

Who’s tryna join my clan tho?

[mental token]

man this is a 2K server

[strong dirge]

I forgot about clash royale do a lot of ppl still play it

[tulip ocean]

werent you able to just pre-order the standard edition last year for 3 day early access? might be wrong though

[strong dirge]

I just came from the gym 😭

[tulip ocean]

im buying it for sure, but definitely not the $100 version

[strong dirge]

And…what are you going to do about that ?

[tulip ocean]

buddy, I aint acting like its even really worth it, but Im just buying it cause I want to

[strong dirge]

Oh yeah… 2k NEEDS to add 120FPS on console

[tulip ocean]

me wanting to buy a game makes me a whale?

wild

[mental token]

that's what I'm saying LOL they take stuff out of the game and then just put it back in a few years later and people celebrate it

As if they weren't the exact same people to take it out

literally just a game patch

they could just put it all in 25 but nah

[tulip ocean]

I might as well buy it, because fr what is me not buying it gonna do because millions of others are gonna buy it anyway

[strong dirge]

Imagine 2k became free but vc prices and stuff increase

Would that be better or worse ?

[tulip ocean]

I dont even play the p2w gamemodes

[tulip ocean]

I only play MyNBA

[mental token]

this is awful logic btw. Buy the game if you want to, but like, if everyone thinks like this, that's what causes things to not change.

Like I'm not buying the game. I know that a bunch of other people will, but I'm not gonna give them my money every year regardless

Even if I want the roster updates, I can just make a custom roster in 25

[strong dirge]

Eh if 2k was Completely FREE yall would still find a way to complain because yall have hate toward the game for some reason 😂

[dim pebble]

anyone wanna buy me 2k

[tulip ocean]

true, but still, the majority of people still gonna buy it no matter what you do, which means 2k wont change, which means I shouldnt stop myself from buying it anyway, because at that point, I might as well never buy 2k, which im not gonna do

[remote kelp]

I mean I'm proabably gonna buy it if I see player control is back

[mental token]

nah that's the problem though. MyCareer and MyTeam are monitized like Free To Play games. Except it costs $70 to play it

Only reason I bought 25 was because it was finally next gen on PC and I wanted to see if it was any good

[tulip ocean]

but I do wish 2k could make some more leaps in MyNBA past just eras, because that was incredible, but now its a bit stagnant

[remote kelp]

I'm pretty sure it will be back

[mental token]

I mean, they won't change until either A) people stop buying the game, or B) they have competition. I can't force them to have competition, but I can choose to not buy the game

[remote kelp]

Vladwavvy finna let us know

[mental token]

The MyTeam All Star Team Up thing was literally the breaking point for me

[remote kelp]

Didn't think they'd invite him to community day lol

[mental token]

That's what told me that they really don't care about the community, and all that matters is money

That's the thing that convinced me that yeah, ts truly isn't worth my time or money

[remote kelp]

If they invited him, it's for good reason

[tulip ocean]

true, it sucks because the competition they did have kind of sucked, those 2010s NBA Live games werent very good so the competition didnt even matter at that point

and now there is no competition at all

[remote kelp]

Dunk City need to come to console fr

Game is fun ash

[mental token]

oh trust me I know, I wish we could have the NBA Live games of the quality of the early 2000s. I was always an NBA Live player, the last NBA Live I played was NBA Love 06 because then they went downhill after. Only finally picked up 2K for 23, and then for 25 because it was next gen

so I've heard

[tulip ocean]

2k hopefully does kind of what EA has done with CFB and Madden, almosg where it kind of competes with itself, with how they add features from cfb to madden, then madden to cfb, then so on

[mental token]

unfortunately

[tulip ocean]

yea

[remote kelp]

2K17 wasn't bad

2K23 was fine

2K22 and 21 were aight

[tulip ocean]

idek why there is exclusive rights for stuff, because now there is (probably) gonna be a gap in quality of the CBB game and 2k

[tulip ocean]

so now the 2 basketball games are prolly gonna be way different

[remote kelp]

Well no point of complaining cause nothin changing

They made changes to MyNBA so I'm right there to buying it

[mental token]

this is awful logic lmao, complaining is how things change. If no one ever complained, nothing would ever change

[remote kelp]

Well if you aren't going to buy it what's the point

[tulip ocean]

thats what im doing, and sure it isnt worth the $70 price tag, but Im not an adult, I have nothing else to do with my money other than buy games and stuff

[mental token]

Half the changes that they made for 2K26 were things that they either removed or made poorly in 2K25 that people complained about a ton, and then they brought back for 26

[keen mango]

Oh ik we hear it every year lmao

[tulip ocean]

so I might as well buy it

[keen mango]

Last year they acc said ts was asz b4 it even came out

N it was asz

[remote kelp]

Well tbf yall wanted a lot of stuff back

not as much as new changes

[mental token]

Because I want the game to be good. I want to want to buy it. But I don't want to buy it. I want them to make changes, to make the game better, to fix the problems, to do stuff that matters. I want them to address the root causes of frustration with players.

[mental token]

Well y'all is general like

I don't give a damn about the meters lmao but I know some people do

[remote kelp]

Meter wasn't really the problem for me

it was the low and normal risk

[tulip ocean]

One thing I dont like about some sports games reviewers, they complain about a feature being removed, they ask for it back a ton, they add it back, then they complain “they should’ve added it way earlier” so did they want it or not

[mental token]

Nah I mean the meters weren't good but I never use them for shooting so it only affected dunking and layups

[tulip ocean]

like softdrinktv for madden, he does this

[remote kelp]

Yeah I had bought it cause I thought Player Control was still in the game lol

[obtuse breach]

Meter designs were 4ss, thank god they brought normal meters back so I can time my layups

[tulip ocean]

yea I enjoy his content but he does some things that also annoy me a bit

[mental token]

I don't even have a problem with low or normal risk. Because I know if someone makes 2-3 whites in a game, that they're making far less shots than they would be making if they were on high risk

[remote kelp]

Well I couldn't take it when they'd make a white at game winner or tying shot

Especially when I contested them

[mental token]

I mean that's frustrating for sure, but my logic is, if they were using high risk, then they probably would've made like, 1-2 other shots earlier in the game that they missed, and so it wouldn't have even been that close

This is the real problem

They create a problem and then sell you a solution

[obtuse breach]

NBA2k is leaning towards realism that’s the only nice part

[remote kelp]

no it shouldn't exist in the first place

[mental token]

Agreed

[remote kelp]

It's called marketing

[mental token]

I'm not saying it should exist, I agree with you that it shoudn't exist

[remote kelp]

and it's a pretty damn good marketing tactic

cause they fool most people every year

gotta give em props for that at least

[obtuse breach]

The problem is with RNG what’s the advantage of having High-Risk if a green won’t be registered

[mental token]

Trust me, I know, I work in marketing lmao, I understand why they do it, but it doesn't make it less frustrating. And that's why I'm not falling for it. That's why I'm not buying 2K26, or any other 2K in the near future until they make actual sweeping changes to the game.

[strong dirge]

It should be half realism half arcade like a balance which I think will be

[remote kelp]

Those changes are never coming bro

So just abandon the hope

[mental token]

then they will never get another dime of my money. I'll live

[obtuse breach]

Hell no, it’s meant to be a realistic game

[mental token]

I got better things that I can spend my time and money on

[strong dirge]

No it started off Arcady just look at online on 2k17 or 16 those games weren’t realistic and they didn’t have slower game speeds

Now it’s way slower

[obtuse breach]

And those games were all about left and right dribbling it eventually gets boring

We need people to play differently

Use dribbling combos

Every guy having his unique playstyle

And his unique build

[strong dirge]

Eh I say it should be a balance but a little bit more Arcady so that’s it’s more fun which is what I believe 2K26 will be with its 10% increase of game speed from 2k25

[mental token]

The crazy thing to me is how many people complain about the dribbling in this game lmao. Like I know it's not perfect, and I think part of the problem imo is that there's only like, a few animations for each thing that are worth using, and the rest SUCK. But that said, it's not that hard to cook your defender in a few dribbles

[strong dirge]

The way it is now it’s way harder to pull dribble combos

And I’m a dribbler

[mental token]

On my PG, I have a good ball handle (96), but I don't have insane shooting or anything, just good shooting (93 middy 83 3pt). But I still shoot efficiently by getting to my spots. Darius Garland Go To Shot, Kyrie Irving Spin Jumper, Steph Curry Side Hop Jumper, Pro 2 Fade, etc. All of these things can be used to get to a bucket with relative ease if you know what you're doing (and if you're not being guarded by like, an actually good lock)

I have 99 pass acc on that build, it was meant to be a build that can be a great team passer. And I think I average around 9 assists. But I also have the ability go just go and get a bucket pretty easily

[remote kelp]

Every animation should be useful in its own way

[mental token]

The average person is not that good at defense

[remote kelp]

Should depend on the player not the meta

[mental token]

I agree with this 100%. They need to find some way to balance things better because there are, according to them, something like 9000 animations, but only 200 of them are useful

Got how many different layup packages but 30 of them may as well just be free blocks for the other team

[obtuse breach]

That’s the problem, people just use the same dribble styles

[mental token]

I mean they have to, because the other ones are just so slow or poor

I mean like I like using the moving btb sometimes, I basically can't use Trae Young btb because his moving btb basically forces him to dribble the ball off someone's foot half the time

[strong dirge]

I bet yall never scored 21 points in an online theater/park game before🤓 look at my points I scored 21 🔥

I scored literally every single point on the team lol😂

[mental token]

I'll do ya one better

I outscored the entire other team in a Rec

with a double double

[strong dirge]

Okay okayyyy

U on pc ?

[mental token]

not throwing shade though, 21 points is elite

yeah I am

[strong dirge]

Oh I’m Xbox

[mental token]

damn

[obtuse breach]

Me fellow pc user

Is pc dead?

[mental token]

🤝

Not yet

I can still get Rec games for now

[obtuse breach]

Thank god I’m moving to pc now

[mental token]

I give it about a month after 26 comes out

until it is dead

But it also depends on when you play like

If I try to play at 10AM on a Saturday, it's a lot harder for me to get a game than 9PM on a Friday

[obtuse breach]

I bought 2k26 already not a problem for me

[strong dirge]

It would be cool for console to have crossplay with pc but I think they’re not doing it because of modders and hackers on pc

It’s way easier to hack on there

[mental token]

I hope they add crossplay at some point. They added an anticheat this year, and cheating went down DRASTICALLY

I played 23, cheating was rampant. Especially those 10 foot alien guys. In 25, I've seen 0 10 foot alient guys, and probably only around 16 cheaters in general all year through 1500 hours in the game

And 6 of them were in the first month, before they added the anti-cheat

[strong dirge]

Dang it did go down

10 foot tall guys would be funny for me to see tho 😂

[mental token]

yeah it's not nearly as bad. There was one guy who I used to see who would cheat in the Rec, I saw him for like a month straight, and then all of a sudden I never saw him again

I think they actually respond to reports now

and actually ban people

[languid rapids]

They don’t

[gloomy thicket]

One the best putback dunkers on the game.

[languid rapids]

2k is one of those games you just DONT play on pc

Moving to play with my friends

[strong dirge]

Do y’all think it’s worth it putting an 85+ driving dunk on a small guard (6’1-6’3) on 2k26 ?

[languid rapids]

Not worth it

[languid rapids]

It depends how good the dunk meter is

[obtuse breach]

As a PC player was saying, the game isn’t as bad as it was

[mental token]

80 is what I went for in 25.

[strong dirge]

O

[languid rapids]

Cause if u can’t dunk on people and get good contavts

It’s no point

[mental token]

80 is good enough, bronze poster, all the animations you need except contacts. It's enough to dunk more than consistently as long as you're not going for crazy posters

[strong dirge]

Coz the player is hecka small so idk if he will or even can get contacts

[mental token]

Lowkey, even with bronze poster and 80 driving dunk, no contact animations, I've found I can still get some contact dunks on people who rotate over late. You just have to be careful and know when you can go up and when to pass out

[obtuse breach]

We still don’t even know nothing about 2k meta and you are already asking what to put on your builds 😭

[strong dirge]

You can reasonably guess with how 25 is

[obtuse breach]

I’ll just make my own build fitted to my playstyle ngl

[strong dirge]

Pretty much similar builder but they added a little less restrictions and a build specialization

[obtuse breach]

Will probably do a slashing power forward

My own recommendation is to drop the meta and make your own build

[ebon anchor]

What’s up little bros

I’m taking over in 26 with my KD build

[strong dirge]

Facts I pretty much know what I’m making already

[obtuse breach]

Just try and get the good badges and the sweet point of attributes

[strong dirge]

I’m making a dribbling shooter 🥷🏽

[obtuse breach]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/945903130716016640/1337037151145033788/IMG_0990.jpg?ex=68a86261&is=68a710e1&hm=fba842107986345f3d980cc7da8bac38bf6e68e0b7608ab54ce9e8ccc269a029&

This was my build in 2k25

It may look like a weird build but if you master a build you will be good

[strong dirge]

I have a feeling my build will become meta coz when I made my own build day one of 25 then Steezo dropped a video of a build that was very very similar

[strong dirge]

No cap I cannot play on that build it’s not my playstyle at all

I’m a small guard typa guy

[strong dirge]

Especially not 75 3 point I love shooting 3s I have a 99 3 point rating on 2k25

[languid rapids]

I’m making a middy build with decent 3 and defense

I shoot 53% with rng

So no rng

I’m gonna be a demon

[obtuse breach]

That’s what should everyone do, their own build fitting their playstyle

[obtuse breach]

I like running the minimum

[strong dirge]

I heard mid and paint scoring is going to be good this year, starting off anyways

[languid rapids]

It’s always good every year

[ivory sundial]

could someone give the best animations for dribbling 84 ball handling and 6'4 guard

[languid rapids]

People just didn’t utilize it a lot until 24

[obtuse breach]

Might have to go with a post scoring small forward

Since they’ve changed post scoring this 2k

[strong dirge]

Y’all wanna see my build in 2k25 ?

Y’all will love it

😂😂😂

[languid rapids]

It’s terrible

[obtuse breach]

“Im running around and shooting 3s” ahh build

[unreal sigil]

😎

[green hull]

😭

123 is wild

[mental token]

Yeah we lowkey fried them LMAO

That game was not close

At half time, two of them quit, and the others quit right before the game ended

we were everywhere, throwing oops, getting steals, etc. We looked like the prime Harlem Globetrotters versus a middle school team

everyone with 2+ steams, everyone with 6+ assists including 3 people with 10+, and we shot 82% from the field as a team and 53% from 3 as a team

[strong dirge]

…123 ABC abc 123 sing it with me now hey 🕺🏿

[unreal sigil]

How much VC you drop on this wild beast?

[strong dirge]

Shoot like $400

[unreal sigil]

My man, you a big baller

[strong dirge]

Nah jk I don’t remember like $50 maybe ?

[strong dirge]

Yessir

[mental token]

My final build of the year, I'm making the Wemby template build. I'm not in any hurry since I'm not getting 26, but I've got 18 cap breakers so I'm gonna turn it into an absolute demon. By the time I'm done using cap breakers, it will have HoF Rise Up, HoF Paint Patroller, and HoF Rebound Chaser

[strong dirge]

18 cap breaker is insane 😂🔥

I barely got like 8 caps

[mental token]

Starter 3 + Vet 2 + 8 caps for seasons 2-9

You can make some NASTY builds with 18 cap breakers

[brazen gazelle]

Holy shi

[strong dirge]

lol your discord banner

[obtuse breach]

Buy 2k26 mate

[brazen gazelle]

Dat boy yak

[mental token]

Like this is my Kobe build, except I have +5 caps on Driving Layup, +5 caps on Driving Dunk, +1 cap on Post Control, +5 caps on Midrange, and +2 caps on Perimeter D

[mental token]

nah, not worth it. I still have 25, I'll get my money's worth out of this one. Not worth spending $70 for the "privilege" to restart all from the beginning, after I spent all this time grinding on this game

[obtuse breach]

Playing 2k on release is peak

It’s so fun

Nobody knows what they’re doing

[strong dirge]

Y’all must not like shooting 3s

[strong dirge]

Nahh facts 🔥🔥🔥

Plus everyone is gonna be on not

You gone see hecka 60 ovrs on day one but imma be 85 on day one

[obtuse breach]

[strong dirge]

Wym ?

[marble echo]

Am I a nutball for dropping 135 on the lnd edition of 2k26

[mental token]

Yeah it was pretty awesome playing on release, I can't lie, but not $70 awesome.

[mental token]

Nah, I actually shoot 45% from 3, and none of my builds have higher than an 83 3pt.

[strong dirge]

Narrr but personally $100 is the way to go, why u spend $135 ?

[mental token]

It's not hard when you learn your releases, and specifically on a build like that, you have 99 midrange, so you get Legend Set Shot, Legend Shifty Shooter, etc. Plus, Kobe was much more of a midrange shooter than a 3pt shooter, so the 99 midrange is much more applicable.

[marble echo]

Pro pass summer pass and a lil more vc

Also pro pass gives like 45k I think

Cant wait to make my 2 way midrange slasher on release 🔥

Like my pass first PG looks like this, with +5 caps on midrange, +5 on pass acc, +5 on ball handle, and +3 on speed with ball. It's a demon in the rec, I average something like 14 2 and 9 and 1 steal

[obtuse breach]

100€ in my case 😭

[mental token]

So I get the HoF Set Shot, the Gold Shifty Shooter (which I max+1 to HoF), the Gold Deadeye. But I also get all the legend passing badges, I get all the HoF dribbling badges, including HoF Lightning Launch, and still get plenty of good Gold Defensive badges

[mental token]

yeah I'd rather just save my money and play all the other games I already own

[obtuse breach]

85 ovr…

[strong dirge]

Imagine if Adin and ishowspeed played 2k26

[strong dirge]

I prolly meant 80 whatever the cap is starting off

[obtuse breach]

I’ll try to not waste the 100k vc early

[strong dirge]

Forget all that it’s going straight to my myplayer and maybe a shorts and a lil bit of clothes day one once I perfect the build to my liking

[obtuse breach]

Not clothing man 😣

[strong dirge]

Nobody wants to run around in brown shirt and grey sweatpants all day lol

[obtuse breach]

I’ll just stick to the free clothing

Rocking BLM clothing all day looking like an activist

[strong dirge]

Different strokes for different folks

Oh yeah I wonder when the track list in 2k26 coming out with the featured artists ? I thought they usually do that before the game releases

🎵

[grave flame]

Better off using that in MyTEAM

If you play myteam

I might do that when I see a pack I want but mycareer ima grind my vc to a certain overall then stop like I did this year

[remote kelp]

2K25 is trash tho

why suffer

I need to see an entire run-through on 2K26 tho

Will buy when it actually releases.

[mental token]

I didn't have that many problems with 2K. My biggest problems with 2K25 was the lack of ball control (your character will just drop the ball so often, sometimes for seemingly no reason, even with high ball handle), and the lack of foul calls

Otherwise, I was mostly fine with 25

[remote kelp]

I mainly play Play Now, but I had to go to MyCareer cause I honestly got sick of the bull

[tired perch]

What’s the record for most rebounds in a game of rec/pro-am?

[mental token]

Idk but one time early in the year I got 36 so

I'm pretty sure I've seen higher than that though

47 is the highest I've found a screenshot of online

at least in 2K25

[vast hedge]

[tired perch]

Highest I’ve found is 52 but I just got 53 the other day I could’ve gone for 60 but my randoms stopped shooting in the 4th quarter

[mental token]

Gotta get over 55, break Wilt's record

[tired perch]

Will probably do it in 26

[vivid saffron]

Tatum should be a 0

[mental token]

Based on what criteria?

[vivid saffron]

Achilles

[mental token]

I mean, just because he's injured doesn't mean he'll never play basketball again lmao

They have to base it off of where he was before the injury. Because the overalls are always done ignoring injuries, and then they use the injuries to lower their overalls accordingly

Like in PNO you probably won't even be able to use him

because he's injured and won't play irl

Until they see him come back and play, they have no way to judge him
