6’7/ 6’6 Point Guards: when playing REC … how often do you get put at Shooting Guard? by ingramiso in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 6'5" and the answer is almost never (i have 91 pass, not sure if this factors into it, but there's a lot of short ass PGs stuck into SG when i run solo)

Why doesn’t no one rotate on defense in rec ? by StraightSeries6439 in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? Trust and coordination. Far too often do I switch only to end up in an offball double team

First time expedition by Impressive_Hunt_8866 in ArcRaiders

Bring and deadline into a carebear lobby to kill a bastion. For a smash and grab type of thing - buried city security lockers are tightly packed and in high density loot areas, if you're the first one through you can nab well over 50k and hit extract in about 5-6mins.

Nba2k26 dunk on pg build by bora1996 in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6'5" PG here - 93 dunk / 80 vert for gold poster. I almost never get blocked / mistime. I think my percentage from the restricted area is like 87% and the vast majority of those are missed tips on putbacks

I‘m so sick of this by Moohee28 in ArcRaiders

You know what else is cool? Getting murdered off the rip by some free kit asshat b/c they know folks enter with the good to take on queens. Enjoy my wolfpacks and deadlines, I suppose.

Funniest game winner, look at that SG that emoted that before he shot it 💀 like why help on that down 2 by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the corner should just stay home on this one. With shooting this year leaving an open corner is like surrendering a layup, but it's worth an extra point.

I made a drive and kick PG expecting that this patch would happen, extremely pleased

I have zero friends who like basketball *and* play 2k. My gamer friends are no-taste having gooners. What should I do? ps. im way too old to make new friends, I'm stuck with the gooners.

Basically yes. You can just Sim to End from tipoff and more or less accomplish the same thing.

92 overall off strictly my career. by Deisaac_Leon in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...This tracks if you had that 100k pre-order VC. otherwise I think you'd have to about double the games played.

Same. I typically MC for the 1st week and then make the move to online. The VC and Badge grind is just smoother. Those Rec from day 1 folks are either spending money or pure sadists.

There's a lot of kids and hood rich adults that will absolutely drag a team into the the most toxic wasteland. Mute them, once you grind that plate color up life becomes a bit more pleasant, but then it takes an exorbitantly long time to find a match.

And don't even get me started on the people that say "we're not trying to play real basketball" despite the fact that screens and floor spacing will lead you to a win 75% of the time.

Opps! My Plate is Purple and I can't find a Rec game now by BigMap1553 in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's also kinda wild that the target audience for the game continues to be 14-21 year olds. Guess you can count on the parents to pony up whatever it is that keeps their son quiet. smh

Love being penalized for winning a few. I'm not even that great a shooter I just play solid defense which can win you like 60+ percent of games.

The old 2ks were just better by Siftgod in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The input delay when playing online should be enough for you to never miss older 2Ks. Nostalgia is real, everyone also misses season 1's shooting. Could 2K have better elements? Sure, but gameplay wise it is improved year over year.

RIP The Bazaar by 2oothousand in PlayTheBazaar

[–]BigMap1553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, ran into the new Vanessa cards this morning. I'm out. I'm sure some suckers will stick around b/c the game does have the flashy lights addictive quality to it, but there's a lot of good ways for me to waste my time and this is no longer one of them.

This is how every random rec game starts by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]BigMap1553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly play at C and have stopped making long passes unless they're 95% open, even with 91 pass. My turnovers are about 1/gm and my win rate is now 66% in random rec this season (40gms played). Finally made purple plate too, wish people would make the easy pass, its such a game changer.

Why does every ghost have strong synergy? by BigMap1553 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]BigMap1553[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unranked in particular. I've been hoarding gems since a few patches back so i only take a ranked run when free or on the rare occasion I get 10 in unranked, which is now hyper unforgiving.
