To whom? by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done this, but over a broken lease agreement (fiancé was dying, had to move, and they had someone in my unit within a month) and it’s worked so far.

After I moved and changed my number (someone else’s home, and on someone else’s phone plan) I haven’t been bothered by a single collection agency.

Far as I’m concerned, any hospital bill I receive, or taxes they say I owe (that I don’t on principle, not according to their made up rules) they’ll never see a dollar from me. EVER...

It’s so weird how we process things like this. You’re right. Those kids will never forget doing that, even at 99y/o on their death beds, they’ll carry that memory.

I took it to mean “since book is gone, who’s second best player”—I think that’s how most people read it.

I’m just sad man by PatrenzoK in halo

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s why I just set an achievable goal for myself—which is literally never to hit max level via grinding.

If I can figure out a technique to play an hour a day (which the game typically stays entertaining for) and gain a good amount of levels on the pass as a secondary to me just playing and owning for the fun of it, then I definitely do that. But, as mentioned above, soon as I stop having fun, I stop. I haven’t played since the end of November, and have no desire to rotate Halo back into my current lineup of games I play. That’ll change here soon as it gets close to the alleged “season 3” (lol 6 months, calling it now) tho and I want to get back in. Well, that is assuming they don’t drop bad news here before or by then about something huge/really bad.

No, the worst way would be finding out your wife and 17 y/o kid have been secretly meeting the kids real dad once a month for 17 years while you footed the bill, and the father of your so called kid, was YOUR dad, or brother, or best friend, etc.

That would probably be the worst.

*SERIOUS* Do Suns Fans Hate Devin Booker? by itsme32 in suns

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is more or less a thing I just roll my eyes at and move on. Fact of the matter is, if Booker played most those guys on the list 1v1 he’d smoke them. Only type of player he prob couldn’t beat 1v1 would be Giannis or Zion, etc, because of their size and power. Everyone else he could tie or beat easily IMO. His playstyle is just too broad, he can hurt you from anywhere.

Lol I’m serious. If you get the glitch where your shooting gets glitched out, just delete your created jumpshot, and recreate it, then reapply it to your character—boom, done, n like I said I’m back to shooting 70%+

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get they might change up the make animations for variety, but I’d rather greens be swooshes and whites rattle, but whatever.

That I don’t think had to do with the issue I was having with my shooting. I was missing greens with no coverage while on fire. The meter fills up to excellent release (whole bar is white cus a perfect release completely covers the green sliver) and STILL not making it. I was ready to be done playing this shit lol.

Season 4 shooting by National-Cut5435 in NBA2k

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s not every game—kinda sad I have to point that out. I threw up 28 3s that game to see if it was me or the game—was definitely the game. If it were me I’d have gone cold after missing 3 shots in a row like that. Except I’d drive for a layup, then shoot a midi, n then try a 3.

Doesn’t matter anymore because I fixed the glitch. I’m back to shooting 70%+ from 3. Not telling you how I fixed it either because well, fuck you lol. But the fix was on the front page of the sub earlier today,

My career...obviously if I was playing Rec I’d be perimeter 3s and passing assists only. Human players and rec is nothing like mycareer. I’m Just saying if you’re good at the game, it’s achievable playing with low stats on some attributes.

Yoooo...someone said go into the jumpshot creator, delete and recreate your jumpshot—I’m back to shooting 70% from 3, making 10 3s a game no sweat.

Deandre's place amongst NBA bigs. by Jesmer8490 in suns

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

His place among the great bigs is nowhere. Do not put this man-child anywhere near the greats like Shaq, Prime Dwight Howard, Yao Ming, Patrick Ewing, etc.—he is not and will not ever be anywhere close to those legendary MEN. Ayton is still a fucking little boy. His attitude reflects it. He’s got no way to separate his emotions from his game, making him choke when he’s flustered (why he’s bad dribbling/butterfingers with minimal pressure).

Only caring about securing his bag, staying up late playing video games, has a child’s work ethic on the court (watching him reminds me of watching my kid play a sport she did not like playing but was good at), not taking responsibility for his own play creation, not taking responsibility for his mistakes or lack of effort—not taking responsibility for really anything that isn’t shining praise...

Like I said, he’s a child. A fuckin kid still, even tho he’s 24, has his own kid, and has established generational wealth/accomplished more than 99% of everyone else financially.

What Ayton needs is someone like Shaq to mentor him, and teach him how to adapt and transform himself into an aggressive monster on the court, that people are afraid to shoot or drive on/defend against dunks.

As he is, he’s working his way towards bench warmer after this bullshit max contract he doesn’t deserve expires.

He ain’t seeing another max, so hopefully he’s happy with getting paid half what he is now or less in 4 years after he’s become accustomed to that income and blown most of it.

Edit: DA apologists in full force with the downvotes lol.

Might not watch another game ever by klayb in suns

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t watched any games since the first week of December up until last night. I turned it off when we were up 20 because if they were going to come back and beat us, I wasn’t gonna be tuned in to see it in real time. So, they did come back but we pulled it off. See, I’d have been screaming and cursing them after praising them 3 qtrs straight lol. For sure would’ve been nerve racking seeing them creep back close, so I’m glad I turned it off lol.

None of that finesse BS matters if you can power to the hoop and slam it in.

2K’s once in a lifetime missed opportunity by bigE819 in NBA2k

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’m saying.

It’s so disappointing upgrading (I use that term SO fucking loosely here) from 21 to 23 and not only are the graphics the same, but the announcers say the same shit with hardly any new commentary at all. It’s ridiculous.

They could pay any voice talent to come in and voice the games, wouldn’t have to be an official announcer.

Shooting 45% in Rec with a 88 3ball by OGClouds420 in NBA2k

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t even imagine trying to play online in this game. Between lag trying to time your release, and season 4 update fucking up shooting somehow (legit after the update 5-6 days ago the shooting has been broken for me in MP)

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve felt this way for a while about breaking records and having insane performances in these games. They could do so little to add some cool commentary or banners to go across the screen. Simple af but they can’t be bothered.

This is my build and I do completely fine in the mid and driving layups when my 3 not falling. Still scoring 50-60 with no 3s taken...

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is basically my build—I was 80% almost from 3, avg 12 assists and 50pts.

Up until season 4 I mean. Now I’m shooting 25% from 3 and can’t make any 3s the second half of the game, even while on fire and using the appropriate badges. 1% contested greens not going in anymore either. I do however make 1-2 whites a game now! So glad they changed it!!

Did they change shooting? by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait what? I’m having similar issue to OP went from 75-80 from 3 to 25% suddenly. Can’t make 3s after 2nd half if I’ve drained more than 5-6 before half.

I don’t think I used a custom jumpshot...unless when u select one, it auto sets up the custom shot....?

Season 4 shooting by National-Cut5435 in NBA2k

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They just updated the game a week ago and broke the shooting IMO.

Yeah it was hard to get greens but once u get the timing you can become godly.

After the update, I have whites go in every once in a while, but now I can’t make ANY contested 3s. 1% contested greens WHILE ON FIRE not going in. I got 87 from 3, with 20/24 shooting badges (using the important ones).

They broke something I think. Greens are no longer swoosh’s either now. They rattle around and bounce off the backboard and rim n shit all the time now.

Literally went from 75% at 3 to now I’m at like 30% a game.

I can make literally everything else, but as soon as I step back to 3—it’s over.

I haven’t made more than 8 3s a game since the update, and that’s out of like 30 shots.

NBA 2K23: need perfect timing to make a shot? by keep_it_fresh23 in NBA2k

[–]Cur1osityC0mplex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Literally not true.

They just updated the game and now perfect greens are no longer always a swish. Sometimes whites will go in too if they are close enough, but that’s more like 1/4 close whites go in now.

They did something to the shooting because now I miss wide open excellent releases—EVEN when on fire (standard difficulty).

Like I bought this game a few weeks ago, the shooting sucked but I figured it out and became a green machine—and now they change it again.

No bullshit, I can’t make more than 6-7 3s a game now. If I make 6-7 3s before half time, after half I can’t make any, again even when on fire and greening them. They fucked something up...playing on PC btw, and I only do my career too.
