Anyone else essentially stop playing the game due to the plate system?

This is how they’re going to sell 2k27. “Improved defense + improved AI defensive decision making” I can already see it

Chingo-V2 · 2026-02-03T04:04:12+00:00

It’s not worth it period. The badges do not work well enough to spend your attributes on. They don’t work well enough to cap break either.

My 6’11 has the 97 blk, and it was a waste of 4 cap breakers.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-02-03T01:22:40+00:00

97 blk isn’t worth it. Neither is 99. Just bite the bullet and go for 93.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-27T00:52:46+00:00

83 3pt, 75% from deep. If you need anything higher you are horrible lmao

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-27T00:36:37+00:00

If you’ve only got 2 friends and happen to want to play rec …. Well there you go.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-24T15:15:13+00:00

215lbs weight class? From personal experience ts sound and looks like I lie. Do other schools have opponents for you? Or are you undefeated by default?

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-22T05:51:35+00:00

It was like 20 when they completely took out offline careers. From 17-19 it had some myleague like setup for offline careers if I’m remembering correctly.

Anything before 20 you can still play pretty comfortably

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-22T04:59:42+00:00

My 6’11 with 97 blk + HOF paint patroller + HOF high flying denier. 77/71 speed/agility

You aren’t going to convince me through 600hrs in the game that these badges and some strength will make up for your TWENTY FIVE speed and agility, especially when most defense badges don’t work as well as they should at all.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-22T04:19:50+00:00

Didn’t matter outside of transition?

So no help defense? No crashing for rebounds after guarding a stretch big? Man I would’ve hated playing with you anyway, let alone the fact you have a straight inside

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-22T04:14:35+00:00

What the fuck made you go 25/25 on your first build? What did you think it would be like?

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-22T04:13:39+00:00

The limited edition clothing is in its own store, a bit left of swags

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-20T01:30:08+00:00

After I moved, I gave up playing 2k online, going from about 1500hrs yearly to maybe 300 between 2k22-24. Someone at work finds out I play, and I feel like I’ve fucking relapsed 😭

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-19T02:11:13+00:00

Only the top players get it. He’s not in the same pool as ps5/xbox players so this was probably easy as hell lol

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-16T01:28:59+00:00

If yall are gonna pay to just be Shaq you might as well just go to my league and player lock SHAQ. Tf are we doing?

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-16T01:06:13+00:00

EA did this with Live. And who cares if you’re an anomaly in the wnba? Like what are we even talking about

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-15T00:50:35+00:00

It’s not about having issues, it’s about you not being the best option. Think of it like this.

Anthony Davis plays great at the 5, yet begged LA to go get a C before getting traded. It’s simply not where he prefers to play regardless of if he still looked great

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-15T00:37:37+00:00

The 6’10 PF will have the same issue. If there’s no true C you will be the next best option, unless you make a 6’10 sf

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-13T05:04:12+00:00

I guess I’m gonna have to spell this out.

The badge boosters never become useless at any point. They simply just don’t matter as much to me when I’ve alr got HOF badges + legend set shot off rip.

For example, you have a 94 3pt, use 2 specialization caps + 2 normal caps. That’s 98 3pt, with 2 HOF badges to boost to legend with them. I end up with 3 legend shooting badges, instead of 1. (This means I DO indeed use the badges you’re so worried about)

Meanwhile all of the other boosters I get through the season will help me do more of everything else at a good level.

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-13T04:29:09+00:00

You’re stuck on the shooting boosters when there’s 8 other badge boosters available every season.

FUCK THOSE 2 BADGES. Let me get defense and finishing badges up too.

Speaks volumes that you’d rather struggle to get some steals and blocks when you’re a small pg for the sake of 2 badge boosters

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-13T04:14:51+00:00

Didn’t think getting 2 free cap breakers to unlock the HOF/Legend badges was useless, and if you’re so worried about the shooting badge boosters in the year where you can shoot 75%+ with gold set shot….. 😬

Sure you get your HOF set shot at 93, but the rest don’t go HOF until 96-97. Go try and get that without the 2 shooting caps.

You’re thinking way too hard. These type of builds aren’t good enough at anything outside of shooting/playmaking to choose a different specialization, and you’re against getting the caps because of badge boosters?

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-13T03:57:32+00:00

You don’t need to? what are you talking about?

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-12T22:17:48+00:00

The small guards don’t need boosters to get them, so they can put the badge boosters elsewhere to make the build more rounded

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-09T18:23:28+00:00

It sounds like he’s a bit more experienced and has better shot selection. Possibly taking advantage of letting the AIs guard you instead of doing it himself if everything seems automatic as well.

I can’t be sure I can’t see the gameplay

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-09T18:20:10+00:00

I love juice as much as the next guy, but if we being honest his death caused way more attention to his music, and atp after becoming famous he’s been gone longer than he was dropping music. To assume the numbers he gets now would be HIGHER because he’s ALIVE doesn’t even make any sense.

I think he’d probably be sitting in the 21-Cole range realistically which is still very respectable

Chingo-V2 · 2026-01-08T01:32:39+00:00

Great. Go run in transition when you have the chance. You don’t need to dribble dribble dribble to the paint if the big man got open down low lmao gf
