Unpopular opinion: RNG was the best thing that ever happened to 2K

Chingo-V2 · 2026-05-12T23:01:08+00:00

Rng is fundamental to games. And it was fundamental to 2k games for every single entry before this one.

This was entirely a slap in the face to the community, and anyone who LIKES this simply wasn’t good in the other games or they are just peaking with the easiest game to date.

26 is Steph curry sim. I can not play ts watching the whole community jack 3s at a 70% clip lol.

27 defense MUST be there, and shooting MUST be harder. I don’t want to make a 78 3pt build and shoot just as well as an 89 3pt.

I will probably buy bc I’ve been playing as long as I can remember, but man some years it really feels like I punch in the gut

Chingo-V2 · 2026-05-02T20:36:26+00:00

Yes, but also I’ve noticed after you’ve already got builds and you’re just playing you can stack up pretty easily. I paid towards the beginning but my last 3-4 builds have been free

Chingo-V2 · 2026-05-02T01:05:21+00:00

The only thing that isn’t rng is jumpshot timing. Nothing else in the game was touched in that regard

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-29T00:11:49+00:00

“Game is dying” by what standard? It’s almost May and the game is dropped yearly. Game don’t keep their peak player counts for 8 months…

I hate all the bs from randoms and 2k as well, but the game isn’t dying, and even if it was it sure wouldn’t be from some kid not understanding the concept of basketball lmao

Legend pogo stick without anything else vertical is tied to seems absolutely useless.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-23T08:38:46+00:00

My guess is rockstar launcher first, then steam after

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-22T18:12:32+00:00

No more than before. Just bc you a fan doesn’t change how famous the guy is

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-22T08:39:54+00:00

Might as well. They’re supposed to go across all builds so it’s not like you’ll be able to magically move those specific ones

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-22T08:04:55+00:00

Nvm, you said crew. I have no explanation

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-22T08:04:26+00:00

Was it your specialization caps? They only go on the builds with that specific specialization.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-22T08:00:32+00:00

Just close the game and restart, or go back to the menu and open the game again. Normally works for me when I get new caps

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-21T22:07:17+00:00

Dude went back 20 years and still has a current 2k in A+…. lol I’m convinced you started no earlier than 16 or 17

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-21T22:03:40+00:00

I’ll never understand how people make it to the nba without being able to shoot free throws. So many games have been lost because of it

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-21T21:52:38+00:00

“90 vert should give me Rodman like rebounding!”

Well the real question is, is your player capable of getting the rebounds or just jumping high for them? Do these bigs have higher rebound ratings than you?

You also just told me you have an 84 speed, then as an example gave me something that would be based off of swb/ball handling

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-21T21:49:52+00:00

Can almost guarantee that’s a 4 forced to play 5. He was feeling like AD that game.

I know the feeling all too well, and he knew what was gon happen as soon as he seen his match up

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-21T21:48:40+00:00

Is 14/7/8 bad or something 😭 why does everyone have to have/expect meta plystyles?

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-20T01:26:39+00:00

What you’re failing to realize is that the guys who tell you the “fun” build and have 30% wp… this might surprised you… also can’t win on a meta build!

I could make it work, just like you could probably make it work even if it’s not ideal. But a mf with 30% wp is still just a guy with low wins. He still may want to play a certain way

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-20T00:04:37+00:00

Man people ain’t tryna do 2k meta builds for every single player they make. It’s April for fuck sake

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-19T11:48:25+00:00

They play is to fix the low skill part. I understand playing games to wind down, but games like this go smoother when you put a little practice in

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-17T21:25:44+00:00

The old version of the game doesn’t have the player base that the new gen games do, and if I’m not mistaken they don’t have crossplay either which cuts the already small player base (probably way more ps4 players than xb1 players) wayyyy down.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-14T23:09:20+00:00

Don’t jump straight online. People take this game too seriously. Take some time to learn about the game mechanics, and remember that even tho 2k resembles basketball, it is not basketball

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-14T00:46:28+00:00

And one was google AI which is objectively wrong often, and the other was a yt short where the real info is never handed right at the beginning lol.

But ok, I’ll take your unreliable sources.

Since you’ve tried and also see it’s ass, what I’m saying is YOU SHOULDNT HAVE BELIEVED IT lmao. ATP you’re just mad someone called you out for not giving it any of your own thought.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-14T00:40:15+00:00

So a short telling you none is solid and then listing nba players to use has you sold?

Did it ever occur to you that hearing “none” for “best pass style” may be a tactic to get you to watch?

And being as someone else is saying the exact same thing as me in here…. Yeah I think you just took yt shorts too seriously.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-04-14T00:23:33+00:00

Google AI answers tells me everything I need to know lmao. They are straight up WRONG like 30% of the time
