NBA 2K25 is here, but itās not all slam dunks and buzzer-beaters. In this video, we take a hard look at some of the gameplay mechanics that has parts of the commu...
Obviously Iām talking about your build on the left for the defence graph, would not be able to hold someone that can avg 44 ppg
And ppl do it some ppl literally have a build 3 good games in heās a vet 3 heās probably got that build primed
You gotta live under a rock itās no defending that bro I have a lock with 99 perim and people do it to me all the time itās a game issue
So like I said either you or your pg, dudes got silver d badges max, idk how you think itās unreal someone avg that high
Lmao
You just be in here defending the game
46 PPG in 5 minute quarters in an online mode with 8-9 other actual people on that same game mode
Clearly exploiting the game
Iām vet 3 I would know
Watch the video I linked itās no defending that itās cheese
You also said this was a bad meter dunk , canāt put anything past you bro
Pretty disappointed with 2k25 š®
Can we separate xbox and playstation lobbies pls
If you're not stupid and you actually watch the full videos, the FIRST one DLO starts twerking for no reason, the SECOND one wasn't part of that question
@lusty bear stop replying just to start stuff kid
Says the kid whos just @ ed me twice 12 hours later š
U can by preventing cross play
Does anybody know if strength is what stops those brush/push off animations?
Or is it on ball menace
He has a dex build Brodie no one is holding a dex buildš
I feel like immovable enforcer tends to activate when people try to brush past you more than on ball but thats mainly because of how i position myself
It's strength/immovable enforcer
Iād more so say not when people try to brush past but itās more like when they try to genuinely move you and you step in front of them
Though Iād try this again bc it said they made improvements to bad gameplay. NOPE. Dunk meter still a joke I get all the momentum dude is under the basket and slaps my arm out of it. Still the worst 2k Iāve played silly me thinking they actually would be good at fixing it
Go peep the new edit š
do the jersey swap only on mycareer or the players on myera also doing jersey swap?
Anyone tryna help me out i got a couple questions im new to 2k
Shoot
Does no one play gravity ball?
I haven't met a single person
even now that it's free
could be fun as hell, I'll never know because no one plays it LOL
Iām looking for good jumper Iām 6.6 93 three point
Klay Thompson base Oscar Robinson upper 100% 3/4 speed on release
Oscar Robison for the upper release
Can do 100% to him mix with bedua
@daring orbit
Whatās his names blend
@lilac cargo i have a 6ā4 with a 91 3 ball whatās a good jumpshot ?
So 100 Oscar
Are you starter 4 rep
Yeah
nah ian s4 i been stuck on s2 for hella long now
Steph base it might be 92 though, if not do cam Thomas base 3/4 speed full Oscar upper
@lilac cargo who for upper release 1!though
Or jj reddic base is really good but personally not for me. Iām a patty shooter personally
It doesnāt matter if you have 100%
Itās not a 2 part thing itās a blend of ones 100% you can leave default in 2nd upper
Ok
Oscar Beluba 50/50 3/4 speed on release
On a 6ā6? Klay base
Maybe 4/4 speed
Canāt tag Rob
Did they slow down pro 2 dribble pull up
Baaang!!! told yall to lok in dah gcā¦choice yours tho ad up
They need to lower the price for clothes specifically like 20k vc for a puffer jacket is kinda crazy then like 12k for a oversized jumper is also crazy
Canāt ever bring my center in random
Rec I forgot the average 2k player canāt shoot
what Defensive takeover do ya recommend? asking for a sg lock
Whatās a comp player @marble oracle
Nuisance >>
6ā6 pg with SGA dribble style
I think Iāve fully abandoned my 6ā3 build
This 6ā6 got a 74 rebound and itās beautiful to have
Especially going up against a five out team .. and the guard tried to rim run easy rebound every time
Full build
Avg 20 and 6 with him
I just need help to get better, if anyone has tips or advice please tell me it I canāt green a ton and I canāt get better
Just play the game bro
Alr ty
Dont expect to be good when you dont even play that much
Ok
What build are you using?
Nah your clothes, vc, boosts all transfer between builds
So I keep all of my stuff?
Do anyone have a good jumper for a big ? Iām rhythm shooting
what does rhythm shooting mean
yes
i still can't make a damn layup with gold or hof physical finisher
Its a way of shooting with your right stick
6'9 using lebron layup, any tips?
Its harder to time but gives you a boost if you do it well
Unc wtf
For the 100th time, make it so the offensive player isnāt able to move first/quicker for the rebound when the defender is just defending with the stick and not jumping @regal thicket @left tangle
This is really a strong contest or Iām bugging?
I need a rebounding stretch for 2s ?
No ball was out before his hand raised
Thank you! I felt like there was mad space and he didnāt even jump just stick contest. Canāt believe it was anything more than a weak contest
What the best way to get rep
By playing the game and making the most of any events
Anybody got a 6ā6 i can use layup over dunk and not a lot of steal
Pretty rogue requirements
Or just a good 6ā6
š
Game is a joke thatās weak at best
Hello can someone tell me why my center can't block with a 99 block rating 89 interior defense and 78 vert he's 7ft1 by the way
When i wan't a block he can't jump or rarely
Blocks arenāt as consistent as u think and whatās ur interior because paint patroller matters
Dd way too low to be 6ā6
wtf you talking about the build doesnāt need block itās a sg I play 5s interiors fake till heās lead into the big
I replied to the wrong personš
Blocks arenāt as consistent as u think and whatās ur interior because paint patroller matters
I have 89 and paint patroller in legend
If itās on legend you should be getting them somewhat often but u can contest the paint extremely well
Yeah that right but it's a shame that'l i can't block
I was mad confused š¶āš«ļø
Man I dont know whats going on with the game but rec has been weird. Gameolay in general
@ionic mulch whatās going on?
Man I don't gamplay just ain't hitting for me. The steals in rec are absurd, Shot timing feels crazy when last week i was shooting fine. Dunking as well. I swear i was dunking like crazy, and with these little updates they been dropping 2K doing some lameahh stuff
Heck yeah I did play a game where I kept laying it up
Shot timing definitely feels off, I swear they messed with something
yeah
I need a big man on my squad
Thanks
They seriously need to remove the matchmaing suspension. Why do they think people leave matches? I got kicked out of a 5v5 in the middle of the game with a matchmaking ban... HOW?
Irl you cant just quit so it makes it more realistic if you still have to play it out. Also some people will just never complete a game if there was no punishment
Yes, but there is a reason people leave matches. If you're playing REC and you're down by 40 would you want to continue playing?
I'm A PG 6'3 2-Way Slashing Playmaker. Also need a 6'6 SG that can shoot, 6'8 All Around SF, a 6'10-6'11 All Around PF, and a 7'2-7'3 Post Scoring/Rebounding Center. I'm trying to play REC, PLAYSTATION ONLY.
itās only helpful when your younger or got kids or if u got responsibilities
Ive been down 60 and still play it out
Although tbf i just like annoying them on defence
I play out games because u still get rep from it
I need 3 for pro am 5s
Why is pass acc so stupidly expensive in the builder compared to every other attribute
Istg going from 25 to 55 takes my ovr up 3 like wtf
Itās 55 pass acc thatās not even good
Why am I being punished so hard like damn
Absurd steals is insane lmao if anything passes are so bailed itās crazy
People do anything for excuses to get bailed on bad passes
Also, you do realize that every single 2K is a 3 point contest? I wanna play on a slasher, and i'm practically forced to play on a build that can only shoot 3s
Gg
??? What makes you say thisš
Literally all people do is shoot threes
Going for 2s isnāt very easy unless u have a slasher or bigš
And 3s worth more than 2s so youād expect it
All everyone does is shoot 3s
What do you want people to do??
Iām so confused by your statement Iāve never seen someone complain about thisš
does anyone remember the size up that was done by moving backwards with the player? Does it still exist in this game?
Lmao buddy in real life a 3 is better then a 2 pointer but imagine a video game where the outside atmosphere doesnāt affecting shooting and the only thing you have to take in account is your positioning and how open you are to shoot
Thatās why I donāt understand why people make these slashing dominant builds then wonder why they lose more then half their games
Literallyš
āAll everyone does is shoot 3sā bro we tryna win 3 point is worth more than 2
Thatās why rim running canāt save you š„·š½s
Not working on play now lb shoots the ball shake my head
Slashers work u just need other good shooters on the team
Everyone hunts for 3s but even the nba like that now too to an extent
Slashing still good tho
The NBA isnt to an extent a 2 is considered a bad shot nowadays
All anyone does in the NBA is shoot 3s now
Look at Joe knows he plays comp pro am on high driving dunk builds and dominates
People barely are starting to play inside the arc irl
Yeah itās dominated by 3s today but itās crazy to say 2s are seen as bad shots lol
Look at SGA one of the best players in the league he has 1,463 points this season so far
Only 270 of those are from 3s
Almost all his points are from 2s
And heās considered one of the best players in the league
Do you know why Joe knows can dunk the whole game ?
Cuz he can shoot too
He plays 5 out cause his whole team can shoot lmao
exactly
Thatās why I was saying it still works if u got good shooters around you
But yeah you need to be a threat on both levels
Itās the whole reason 2k went with the insane RNG to shooting beginning of year
Not only to nerf zenners but to also deter people from shooting 3s only
But like in a video game where you can set your 3 point rating people are gonna get mad when they miss open 3s
This era is soft though and nearly every play is a bail out.
But the real issue is the average 2k player is incompetent at defense and just canāt play defense
Oh you an oldhead š“
Well u got oldhead takes lol
I'm just saying, a team as bad as my home team now that cant make it to the playoffs shouldn't be beating championship teams
Ur GM a moron for that Caruso trade man Iām sorry
Gave away one of the 2 way players for āJosh Giddeyā š
genuinely the biggest problem. The number of people I see sagging off of their defenders for no damn reason is insane
You complaining just to complain twin
hey guys, new to 2k, whatās the fastest way to get to 90 overall? iām currently 86
Pro am
Does anyone have joe knowsā build?
Exactly bro people just sag they man / Donāt play defense like this real life
Video game people donāt need that much space to time a jumper
I realized Iāve been telling you to fix this game but havenāt dropped video proof so here it is⦠first rebound terrible animation but thatās not even the problem, second rebound STOP LETTING THE OFFENSIVE PLAYER MOVE FIRST/QUICKER THAN THE DEFENDER WHEN DEFENDING A JUMPSHOT WITH THE RIGHT STICK @regal thicket @left tangle
honestly agility didnāt help u there but I agree that offensive rebounding is broken a little
My agility was higher than his
The problem is right stick makes you jump and the devs have decided that even if you jump 1 inch off the ground the offensive player can run right through you/right around you even though I should be attached to his body and block him
Block him from running by/through me*
what a good highlight right now?
im played with build with 88 blocks and 75 vert the all year and i didnt get snach block do i need to prees like l2 or r2
Message me " š" to Recieve today NBA LOCK
@regal thicket Jazz new statement jersey when???
The issue really is just being tailored to lower skilled players
?? Bro wants to get handed 10k vc every spinš
500 vc isnt a vet level reward...
thats rookie/starter
The rewards arenāt āvet levelāš¤¦š¾āāļø
LOL are you veteran?
You have the potential to get vet level
No lmao thatās just how the game works twin Iām just explaining it to youš
Dummy
Clock in
Hold this L
š£ļø š£ļø
Iām getting 3k every spin
Lmfao I get it in the ante up š
Patience lol youāll get some consistent rewards
Iām pretty sure itās just a higher chance to get there rewards is it not?
Anyone need a lock ?
Paying. Someone to carrry me
Naw vets min vc for daily pull is 2.5k and 4.5k instead of 2.5 high end
And boosts by the 30s instead of 10s
I was trolling him ngl
Why does the limited store say itās changed but when I go it shows me last weeks stuff
I got 4.5 today š¤
Who play on Nintendo switch?
Rec? I got a guard 99 3 ball wit iq
Comeback kid in this game is crazy⦠I swear if youāre blowing out your opponent donāt even think about taking an open jumpshot šš green window shrinking crazy
Yeerrrrr
On Bal menace just got Hall of Fame upgrade and now I donāt play the same way that I did prior to that why whatās going on?
Idk
Same it felt so much more stickier on hOF but now itās on legend I feel like they break it so much easier
who running rec
guys pls answer, does the tournament edition come with the base game?
š
Yh
All the different editions have the base game
The only difference is the bonus in game content they come with
thank youuuu
is 92 strength too much for a lock guard? thinking i couldve just went lower and +1 immovable
Anyone know what the event is for today?
Why did they remove ovo?
Is anybody down to play theater Iām a center
Other way around twin legend feel likes once I touch them I never let go
Lets streak up on 2s. Iām a Comp 2 way iso guard 70 wp that streak up on 2s. Need comp popper/ spot up or inside with decent pass acc that has iq and know what they doing, 65+ wp and shooting 50% + from 3pt line if you shoot.
okey i see you
bro i already won the rush event lmao i have a 87 ovr against 99
Anyone who try run
what you tryna run
I beat the event so where is my reward? Im restarting my game rn
Yeah same, did you get ur rewards?
Or do we get it after the event ends
2s?
Why am I frozen in the event š
When. It ends
Thanks
what servers?
Ps
@severe horizon what the hell there is no 3s offensive in 1v1 event??
so im getting post scored for the whole event with max standing and post contorl
w gameplay
Momentum high
ššš
How do I get rewards from the rush event
im guessing they give them when the event ends i just won and dont have mine
Appreciate it
Anyone know of a good lock build
Yh you get them at the end
Ive been using this recently and its been extremely solid
Depending on the number of cap breakers you have +5 perim +5 steal +2 speed +3 agility
Itās this
š
somebody give me a good lock build
@marble dune or you can use Buckets #šmycareer message
Ay ty I only got 7 rn
+5 perim +1 agility +1 steal
Then put your next on steal as well to get 96 and hof glove
Ay ty
doesnāt even get hfd silver š
Im rarely in a position where it matters
Too bad š
why didnāt i get rewards
You get them at the end of the event
so i donāt need to participate any more ? i did it like 3 times
Nah once you get the streak you dont have to
But you might as well make the most of 2x rep
Anyone tryna play I got a lock build?
need a iso guard for pro am 3v3
Events are hilarious⦠āreturning to the lobby will reset your progressā⦠bro Iām just trying to go to the bathroom rq
2k players are so quick ššš¼
Lmfaooooooooo
š
I legit hoped on 2k to see it! š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Poor Kyrie, bro canāt catch a break!
itās such a weird thing to see
I just played 3 people in a row who quit in the 1v1 event and got 0 xp and rep
Nice event šš¼
I was gassed to finally see a 1v1 event and this is how they rolled it out ššš
Laggy af
funny how rush 1v1 its FULL of all of kind of players on steam cause 2k still having meter shots/non hof for meter shots on events
and the playing grounds its EMPTY, even if the event have no extra rep
š¤£
Fix your events, build your own freakin anti cheat, you have billions and all you patch is vc methods, shame on you 2k. Not buying anything not even season pass anymore and hope take2 release gta6 soon so all the attention goes there.
You still have a couple seasons, do you best, that, honestly, even an AI would do better.
Fr
the updated roster is available already
i dont know whats the point of the myplayer trade value in the setting if you cant ask for trade
Trade for other players
Anyone know why we canāt buy anything from Jordan but that banned shirt?
Wild! I still donāt believe lakers pulled this off! Insane
anyone got a good center build
anyone got good guard sigs
i just tried the new mavs lineup in play now
defensively they might be the best team in the game
Weāll see how it translates into the real world! Video game chemistry is different than real life lol
This game is so dumb
Why is shooting so inconsistent
And lower 3pter feels more consistent
Gotta lab moves that you like
Ths game is actually unplayable and the rush event jus proved it
They still didnāt fix quits in the event GFGs
Itās a promo for the banned Js releasing all star weekend
yo anyone get the reward for the event? It ended 15 minutes ago and I didnt get anything
Yeah I aināt get shi
is there a way to traded big players in season like AD to Luka
i just want to update my season
yo does someone know how to fix 60 fps while playing in court?
like park
rise, beach
its weird
you on pc?
I'm on console but i think all around any online modes cap at 60 fps only offline gets you more fps
in other games
oh
I have a question, is it normal for centers to carry the ball and shoot all 3-pointers, but has 2k ever played basketball?? Has he ever played a real game or only watched the games on TV? People who penetrate with the center underneath, people who shoot haphazardly and people who run underneath... randomly cuts into the basket, all donkeys
can someone recommend dribble signature moves for a 6'4 81 ball handle
yo how do you do that move on a fastbreak where you throw the ball ahead of you and run up to it???
What pass style yāall using for 85 p.a as a smallguard ? Seem like « noneĀ Ā» or fox?
Flick straight up with the right stick
Does wearing the Jordans give you double rep in the rec?
Nope
Only the city
I'm veyr new to guard play, as I've always played as interior bigs. Can I ask some dumb dribbling related questions here? lol
If you want to be an iso guard just @coarse tiger in any of your questions
Expect some š reactions tho
Don't necessarily want to be an iso guard. Just want some basic combos that can get open once or twice a game
to start and build off of
grifheinekd
is there a way to make x button on xbox always shoot isntead of sometimes pass and sometimes shoot?
can't even play this game cause of it stupid thing passes when I'm literally wide open
it works in rec, you need to equip them on your rec uniform
Sound like a controller issue
With the trades happening Play now online would go crazy
If people would load in with the same "Shot Timing Profile". And continue playing with the same team after a win & not lose. Like WTH.
. Also would go crazy
if the eras were divided. 2k if you see this at least bring back 2k13-2k17 Play Now Online format
it works fine in my career when I'm only controlling myself it starts doing that when I'm controlling multiple players on a team like after I pass
I press a to pass to someone open. They catch the ball then I press x and it is 50/50 it will either shoot or pass
but if I just run up and shoot it 100% of the time it will shoot
Anyone else think 2k should give us a slight bump in rep received from games now? At this point in the year most people are decently high in rep and man watching .1% for a park game hurts
need guard
I got a doc rivers build
No charity, earn that rep
I personally think the rep lvls are pretty good this year
It takes quite a while to grind to high rep lvls meaning its a year long grind however theres still solid rewards at the lower lvls such as 2 way tenacity and the first set of cap breakers
I love the rewards but man 1000 games for starter 5 to vet 1 is crazy, I can only imagine the people working towards legend
But I guess some people play 100 games a day, Iām lucky to play 10 before this gameplay gets me turn the game off lol
Oh hell naw
Rep is WAY too grindy
Honestly, with the ammount of time i have played, the fact im not half way through rep is asanine.
635 hours for 50% of the way through starter 5
hopefully rise wins this season, ill be into vet 1 but still, thats way too much time investment for a game thats only relavant for a year
I have games ive owned for like 6 years thats im nearing 2500 hours on to put that in perspective
Please tell me if Iām bugging . Iām shooting 43.9% with the x button high risk only . all of a suddenly I canāt shoot as consistent now that Iām a good shooting game away from 44. But when I was shooting 40% n up I was shooting pretty well . I canāt be bugging cuz like what the š
Tbh if you play consistently itās not that hard my rep was reset Christmas Eve and I was back to starter 3 by January 10-20
I was starter 3 by the end of season 1. Getting to starter 3 is easy, its after starter 3 where it starts getting rediculous
you will go from getting a rep level or two in a week to getting a rep level a season
its like each game is 1% of a level at starter 3, at starter 4 its .2% of a level, at starter 5 its .1% of a level a game.
They basically made it so anybody and their mother can get starter 3, but anything higher requires almost a thousand hours of time investment or more.
arguably I reached starter 3 last week, Iām at 60% this week
Iām scared when I hit 5 ima just be wasting my time
yo im brand new to 2k25 this is my first time playing a 2k game yall got any tips
im on pc
š
check out a youtuber name Kevin Cruz for great tutorials for beginners and advance stuff. Head over to Learn 2K where you can practice
Anyone looking to get a team for 2s or 3s consistency is key. Play a lot of games together this requires appropriate roles and position.
About to reach 1500 hours and Iām 15.7 through V2
Same, i blasted thru ranks until starter 5, now i can only hope for rise to win because all of sudden deficit between rise and elite is only 0.2 like every single player from rise lost every game past few days lmao
bros only s5
Do yall think weight matters? For example , 2 centers. One is 250lbs with 99 strength and the other is 300lbs with 95 strength . Do you think the heavier one will have more success in backing down?
My 99 strength center is 246 and I got 88 interior but somehow people are able to move me in the rec even tho they only got 92 strength. I donāt get it. I also have 87 post control and have similar issues on offense on not being able to just move people who are no where near 99
just because your stronger doesnt mean you have a 100% success rate still. They still have 92 strength, so they can back you down slowly
No strength is what matters
Oh, I understand that. It just seems negligible. It doesnāt seem the difference between 99 and 92 is that big?
I donāt think it matters as much as people think, though. If you seen clips of my center getting back down you would not think that I have 99 strength
Interior is what matters for getting backed down but then again it doesnāt actually matter cuz mashing is OP and paint defense has been horrid for like years now
Is there a 2x rep event today wednesday?
Man the overall ball security on 2k25 is so bad
spin move wrong the ball goes to narnia
if you even blink the ball is gone in this game
Ls dribbling is better than rs dribbling this games cooked
Nah bro, am in canada
Can somebody help me pick with these two builds? What are the pros and cons of both. Thanks in advance
good jumper for 6ā4 80 3pt?
I would say the 7'0 build is better, but I would lower the standing dunk to 90 (plenty good enough) and then upgrade the perimeter D as high as it goes
It can only go 63 maxed out tho
That's fine, honestly all you need is 62 for Bronze Immovable Enforcer
It'll help you to be a little better against those players trying to drive by you
How bout the 6ā9 build? Was thinking of building it. It does have a great inside def, and gonna be legend pogo stick, got an 88 vertical so i can grab boards from the 7ā0 with 99 oboard
No idea if that can bully 7ā0 or they got to bully me on the inside rebounds
Yeah I'm curious about that as well. I know the biggest benefit of 6'9 Centers and 6'7 PFs is obviously the speed, but also the ability to get higher perimeter D and Steal, and the 6'9 you posted forgoes the better perim D for even crazier interior D. I would personally go for 85 or 88 interior and 88 block on the 6'9, and then use the excess there to get at least 82 (ideally 85 perimeter D) and at least 60 steal
Good idea bro. Thank you
Get 90 vert
6ā9 insides are pointless if u have no perimeter or steal imo
I just got my cap breaker for the season. Iām a 7ā0 center with a 7ā4 WS. Do I put the cap breaker on my block and take it to 94, take my vertical to 86, or put it on my interior defense and take that to 89?
Interior
Question for my ones players- Is there a real difference in Gold and Hof on ball menace. I rarely get scored on with Hof on ball menace and wanting to see if I should put my +1 on something else
Anyone know why I can't add protectiona to draft picks?? It just instantly chooses unprotected
2k rosters changing for the 4th time this week
Yo like did they change the behind the back I canāt do it anymore
Iād say 7ft for 5v5 and 6ā9 for 3v3
do yall know a good jumper for a 7 foot, 77 3pt?
juss say u canāt dribble
Can you get to veteran 2 by playing mycareer
Nope, MyCareer gains you no Affiliation Reputation unfortunately
Though I think you should, they should make it so you gain like, half rep from MyCareer games
I just don't know how to get any because I don't have ps plus

Anyone could help me get Vc or hit 99 im new to 25
Yo Fba same U trynna run 2s?
im an 83
my career
Any other way
idk just playing
yooooo
whats up fellow 2kers
why does my 2k keep crashing whenevr i try to play Quick Play Online and games in the city
but it lets me play mycareer fine
Nah but thereās plenty of good ones on yt
W pfp btw go birds
āWho wants an account with something everyone already hasā
They buffed shooting all together thatās all @tough mist
Amare stoudemire base

Idk what visual cue you use but mine is exactly on push
Release speed: quick
Blend: 50/50
@lilac cargo Lamelo type build?
this is tuff
Can you get to 84 swb for sga dribble? I canāt tell ya might not, I assume itās min weight, I would give up some dunk if youāre tryna be more lamelo but itās good and works
Lamelo no boards type
83 is max
At 80 i at least get lamelo dribble atyle
Not broken it works as it should
Sga gets good speed boost animations at that height
But you want physical finisher too
Yessir i use it on my 6ā10
76 3
42.5% from 3 on my 2k card
How to get vc fast with an only 71 overall guard?
I'd just make it at 6'6 to get Shai dribble style and gold physical finisher
This a bad one
PF was trash
how do i use it?
does anybody know the logic behind the cpu vs cpu gameplay on blacktop? like is it tendency based like last year?
Ol Dog Smoke?
broās the leading old head
he like famous in the old head community
how you not notice that bro Iāve always wanted to play with him
no glaze
Flick/hold ur right stick down and back up
Please donāt act slow when doing it because people treat rhythm shooting as if itās rocket science
I see what people mean about 6ā10s I literally have no ball handle or speed w ball rn cuz itās only a 72 ova but itās so easy to get open the normal cross over is so glitchy at times and having a 93 block is free max wingspan to I feel like a footer
And shooting maybe itās my jumper but hitting mid ranges with a 83 feels way easier that on my 6ā4 with 90 middy
The thing about 6'10s is you can get the Giannis crossover, an insane wingspan, decent shooting so you can shoot over people, and good finishing. The biggest problem with 6'10s is always going to be your speed and agility, but that's when you run the Slice takeover to get +7 speed and +7 agility at max takeover

Dear NBA 2K Team,
Iām writing as a devout Pistons fan and long-time supporter of the NBA 2K franchise to express my extreme frustration with the current state of the in-game NBA Store. Simply put, the lack of jersey options in NBA 2K25 is unacceptable.
How is it possible that classic jerseys and alternate uniforms, which were available in NBA 2K24, have been entirely removed from the new game? As it stands, the store only offers current white and blue Pistons jerseysāno alternates, no City Edition options, and barely anything resembling a complete selection. This isnāt just an issue for the Pistons; many teams are missing essential uniforms.
Why are paying customers getting less content than previous versions of the game? Itās genuinely baffling that youād regress rather than improve the user experience. Jerseys are a fundamental part of the NBA culture, and removing these options makes the game feel incomplete and lazy.
Please address this issue promptly and provide a clear update on when players can expect a full, comprehensive jersey selection. We deserve better.
I hope it gets better or good for you ^
We were sold an unfinished game! Well said though!
I PRAY this wasnāt hand written
No theater 1v1 this week? Yall hate me @regal thicket @left tangle

Hi, how come there's no face scan option when I create a player on ps5?
I got the companion app and successfully uploaded, I also made sure that it's on ps5 as well

Anyone know a good jump shot with a 78 or less requirement for a 6ā9
Iām a 6ā3ā pg any good jump shots I could use. I just bought the game
Over 2k lol
Does anybody know if the old meters are coming back? I really donāt fw the new ones
Anybody got a good jumpshot?
The RNG in this game is ridiculous
If youāre blowing your opponent out they wonāt let you hit an open
Where can I find a squad
Looking for group
On god I really hate this game⦠between physical handles, RNG shooting, go to shot cheese, rhythm shooting, left stick dribbling being better than right stick dribbling.. I honestly donāt know how people play it
& I win 75% of my games⦠I canāt imagine how people winning 40-50% play ts
best standing dunk and dunk animations for a 7' with 70 driving, 90 standing, and 80 vert?
Anyone on
so on the event
do you receive the rewards AFTER the event or after you win all 4? cause I havent received mine yet lmao
You receive the rewards once the event has finished
ahh makes sense
yo, is someone else here had any issues with the graphics?
cause all of the players and spectators are black
like black black, not dark skinned
Bro had to make sure he clarified ššš
Do yall think a 6ā4 pg better than a 5ā9 ?
Complaining š
It honestly depends on cap breakers⦠as you get more cap breakers you should be moving up in height. 5ā9 no cap breakers, 6ā2 first cap breakers, 6ā4 vet 3
Yea cause the game terrible
U issue
can someone help me pls
i just got the game and eveytime i sign with a team after one season it makes me go into free agency how do i stay with a team more than one season please help
62 perimeter for bronze immovable, or 60 steal for bronze interceptor for a C build? If you can only choose 1 which is better?
Immovable
mp is sooo tuff
whats the consensus on hof/legend on ball menace
Worth it if youre a lock or guard on ball as a pg if not youre better off using your attributes elsewhere
got 96 perim as a sg, max +1 to legend temporarily till i get my starter capbreakers. hard to really tell a difference from gold
did they change the shooting on 2k recently?
why is my player display blurry?can anyone fix it,im playing on pc
I think they made it easier
could be my internet or sum gotta be
yea i gotta see wassup w my wifi then
Without a doubt
5ā9s cant contest other players and are easy to contest
Dawg
idk if yāall know this but thereās a pretty underrated combo
if you do curry escape and immediately do a hesi after doing the curry escape
you can spam the curry escape
Can any dev please explain to me how post scorers with 25 ball handle are allowed to dribble at all with 90+ perm 90+ strength pressing them at half court? How does that make sense? These dudes should be stone walled 100% of the time, make post scorers put some ball handle
Theater isnāt as annoying cause itās only 12-14 shot clock but proving grounds with 24 shot clock itās insane these dudes can dribble at all without backing down
How is it realistic that people with 91 steal pull out cornerback style lane steals while not even looking at the ball? Not post scorer btw
does anyone know how to fix the gpu failed with error code 0x887a0006 crash
any team want to play against mine in pro am tonight?
Where do I see what teams ive won with in PNO to work towards my Well Traveled Accolade??????
This not underrated twin
They are stone walled you just have to cut them off and have immovable enforcer cuz there strength is usually 90+
Got immovable HOF & probably only get one forced pick up animation once every 3 post scorers. These dudes making Embiid/Jokic builds with 25 ball handle, even Embiid/Jokic build templates have 50+
Cuz itās not usually to force pickups itās just to stop them from moving u or running through you and most of these guys have 90+ strength
But you are 100% correct we need WAYY more forced pickup animations for these post scorersš¤¦š¾āāļøim cutting them off and forcing em to work towards the basket and they just keep coming
Where do I see what teams ive won with in PNO to work towards my Well Traveled Accolade??????
Or where should i be looking in this discord for this?
So strength being equal, 90+ perimeter defense shouldnāt force pickups vs 25 ball handle? Make these guys put ball handle on their builds. At least 50+
Anyone recommend builds I should use
Depends on what you wanna run
Ong
Anb got codes im new
2k25 is probably one of the worst games ever the way this game plays and you blow a wide open layup real player percentage and let's not forget missing wide open shots because you're not using the rhythm stick. And you're using the button still. That makes no sense I will honestly say 2k24 is better than 2k25
Ehhh I like 25 better than 24
Give me 2k24 shooting and 2k25'S defense and it's fine. It's the shooting isn't good on 2k25 when it makes you miss a wide open layup especially when you beat the guy to the rim forcing you to rhythm shoot to make open shots because you can't consistently make them with using the button
realistic
š£ļø š£ļø
Klank Thompson for one game
Steven Curry the next
Exactly now I see why some people ended up going back to 2k24 and don't get me started on the free throws
24 was fun but it was dirt
That is true, especially the play now online mode
is perimeter defense or steal better to have on a 6ā2 guard
was thinking this but idk if perimeter is better to have
I need VC fast!!!!!
@coarse tiger ?
how do i claim my rush event prizes
Bad
good defense on ball still and can finish open dunks
65 vert good?
Yea
88 speed 83 agility or 87 speed 85 agility
87
End the game when my opponent quits in a 1v1, that should be obvious but yāall donāt play the game @left tangle @regal thicket
Do you get any badges above 85 speed 84 agility? If not stay at 85/84
91 SWB needs 86 speed
so 86/84
True I didnāt even look at the screenshot just saw the question so thatās my bad. Iāve seen people stay at 85 speed 90 swb and use a +1 on swb, it sometimes saves attributes
i only got 8 rn and + 5 3pt +3 to BH, should i keep it that way?
or long term into next season and do 90 SWB and jus wait for next cap breaker if they add
Iād just spend like 30 minutes in the builder playing with the different combinations and see which one gives you the most attributes
yeah been doing that, i think iāll do 91 SWB and just next cap breaker put +1 on BH so i get legend HFD.
lowkey think imma pursue one of these, jus dk if i should take the dunks that serious since idc to go for contacts, which is y i might take the 96 steal
i believe theyāve done 1 cap breaker every lvl 40 but i didnāt play season one so i donāt remember
most guards iāve seen for 2s 3s run 71 pass but for me im tryna have a better pass with 82. so it jus depends on playstyle and what not, the 71 pass acc usually the guards who do 87 dd 75 vert for contacts but for me i jus care if i can finish open dunks which is why im searching for help
yeah good idea, hopefully u get there soon
a few months cause i hardly played for a while this season been the most ive played
but if u grind everyday youāll get there
@left tangle can I report a issue to you
In play now my friend on Xbox is pressing play game on play now online and itās giving him this error that says locker room is full and giving him a loss without even going into a game. @left tangle his Xbox account is Moist sacc
hello., is there a way to remove the yellow icon when selecting plays?
Is 2k tweeking again or?
Bruh PS players straight vibe killerās toxicassfuk
Can u snag with a 6'7 or do u need a 6'9
It is possible but not consistently at 6ā7
6'9 better then?
Yh
how do i apply cap breakers
Go to your attributes menu then click in your right stick
For badge+1's. What would give the most benefit on a 6'7 SG/SF?
Gold set shot vs gold deadeye
and
Gold high flying vs gold paint patroller
Set shot
And gold paint patroller
Please let me know since when you can hit red timing in the proving grounds @left tangle @regal thicket

You trash my man @coarse tiger
I avg 20 ppg .. 6.3 assist .. 2.5 steals .
Youāre not on the level pal
Trash
Im still continuously seeing cheaters on PC @indigo elk its very frustrating with how the game is built in 25 its extremely difficult to beat them and i cant just quit because i will get banned (id just rather not give them a game) please either ban them or put in better anti cheat thx
@glass ice make sure you never be like that trash boy @coarse tiger tho
And I promise youāll never run into a cheater again
You probably be fading threes for no reason
itās not
U at 58%? That aināt good either šš chill on my boy
58% in 1200 games
he has 46% in 1400 games
š¤§š¤§š¤§
mine is WAY better
LMAO
you must be blind
keep glazing
Neither of yalls win percent is good
Selfish
dawg almost 60% isnāt good?
š¤§
In rec
I average 2 steals lol
I usually get like 3-5 per game now
Still waiting f
My win percent like 67.6 bro
1490 games
56 percent from 3
57 from the field
Like 18ppg
Could be at 70
If I hadnāt quit so much
you ballin bro
Yea I stopped playing 2k serious after hitting vet 2 a couple months ago
nah send a pic
67.6 is not good bro
send a pic
ok I just keep forgetting
Those are my exact numbers lmao
Your gonna be surprised and tbh those stats arenāt even that good
get off the game
1200 to 1400?
Yea such a huge difference bro
I guess thatās the same
massive
Almost 300
You know if you won your next 300 rec games your Win percentage would still be lower than mine ?
Cause the gap is not that big you have 1200 games my boy
good pg build?
Rookie numbers in games played
Yo who tryna play 3s in pro am we needa big man dm me
how you get the role twin
ohhh
Which build would be better on the 2s court? Left is 6ā2 and right is 6ā4 and I have 13 cap breaks
Why are dudes running low/normal risk with a 99 three ball????? 2k please fix it!!!
How do you get fast vc
Just Grind
Shooting limitless whites should not be in the game at all
Hi
Can someone help me
Just downloaded nba 2k25 on pc idk what to do on the shaders thing
How many cpu threads to be used?
90 vert and 73 speed or 80 speed and 85 vert for a 99 o board 6ā9 park center?
Congrats š to those who tailed and got $12k
i canāt do the crossover 16 speed boost in game but it lets me do it in my court do yāall know how to fix this?
Absolutely. Low/normal have very specific rim physics. Itās giving flexible release from a couple of years ago. High volume shooters on those settings need a severe penalty to push them to the settings they belong at.
Them going 12/28 isnāt enough especially
I put the game down for a little bit, did they change it so you can no longer force a switch by holding X/A? I'm having trouble with it
is nba 2k25 pc worth getting?
No
Game Shared 2k?
Patch emoting in the paint
Anyone down to play 3v3 pro am? I'm a pg looking for 2 players
No weirdo
Add me if you wanna play 2k on Xbox series sx
Weird?
You should have to play defense
Except against post scorer there is no defense unless u make a build to counter themšand even then its cancer
60w% is terrible
People make lock and perfect build and canāt steal the ball everybody should have to defend
A lock wonāt stop a post scorerš
And post gives u unpluckable ur gonna foul
Thatās the was it should be it still an nba player
Quiet weirdo
So shaq is weird?
Real life and games are 2 different things
And Shaq was doing It in a 5v5 not 1v1
can someone share 2k w me? I only got 2k23 I'm on ps4
But he could do 1 on 1 starting at the three point line as a matter fact, you proved my point in a 5v5 setting with more people around him
Anyone have 2k25 current Gen?
Yeah he could
Thatās why I said the difference between real life
Someone could drop to paint and strip the ball from shaq if need be
Lies you tell
Not telling lies
Morale of the story is
Post scorers are odd
The people who use them atleast
What makes them odd because i mostly fade but sometimes i wanna drop step
Just are
Anyone down for 2s or 3s?
And fading off screens not weird
Oh no fading is equally as weird
Easier to defend tho
So you iso right?
: so you make a big that canāt stop a post that real life makes man Ben Wallace was getting dunked on and Mutumbo
Scroll up to when I said if your wp isnāt 70% or higher itās trash
Like yall just be talking bro lmao
No you canāt because this is a video game unless u have 99 interior I doubt ur stopping a post scorer and even then post lockdown barely helps
Nothing is weird, just know you better make the shot
My style of 2K is unorthodox, but I make them shots tho
Did they touch this shooting?
ngl bro quick question how many wins do u need to get the big stadium arena for proam 3v3
It go by rank bro I got it
Just hit platinum
Not a specific amount
Itās not that many tbh
is HOF breakstarter really worth it as center?
is there a fix for when they try to pass the ball it goes back to his hand
.
Eh
Anybody wanna run im a 82 pg looking a crew to rock with
season 4 starter here how can i unlock season 1 2 and 3 badge elevators?
You cant
2k sucks
I mean youre the one that didnāt play the previous seasons
Ian even mad at itš
Careful the rec players might come after you and say āyour just terrible at itā
i do suck but the game sucks too
just gonna wait for 26. ittl prolly be a copy paste and just as bad
2k is turning into cod
to bad the devs are to braindead to realize that if they brought new 2ks in and made them like the older ones they would be onto something
šš
yeah devs clearly dont care about improving on the game at all because nobody rivals them
anyone have and suggestions on a good center build?
Does anyone know if old town park is going to have a 1v1 court?
should i use my cap breaker to get 99 rebounding or 95 standing dunk for the hall of fame badge
RB for sure
Offensive or defensive
lookin fer a duo just someone to play with that aint braindead
Offensive

GIMME 700k VC!?
Oh then idk

Can we please have a 1v1 court in the old park events @regal thicket @left tangle
my carrer is the best way to get up fast what anyone elce says is a lie. you can get up to 90 overall in 1 day simulating to key games and just playing thoes
update its 32 hours later steam is still being dumn and i still got 164$ sitting in my steam wallet to get vc vruh
im loosin my mind folks
Fix the shooting timer. The mechanism is baddd not everybody play online mods
Too many settings to play a simple game.
Did they make shooting easier or sum? Just played three games in a row in da rec and went 6/6, 3/3, and 4/4 from three. 94 three ball. 13/13 totalš¤£
Play street ball and throw lobs
Someone just said that to me too
They might of took rng away if they did thatās the best thing that has ever happened to this game but I fear it might be too late
get your priorities straight
the games not that good its just the dopamine sensors in your brain are fried, every shot, dunk, steal, block, etc triggers that. go spend that money on a night out with your lady make memories
anyone know sum good beginner jumpshots
if its a big purchase u might wanna check ur card company or smth
guys, i just bought 2k25 and my rosters arent updated, how can i solve this?
you can get vc for simulating
Twin stop wit da vcš
If anyone is down for play now online dm me. Me and my friend trying to 2v2
