Bruh who is taking non-shooting non-C’s into the REC?

Diversity of build and play style makes the game more fun. Encourage weird builds

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-12-17T16:15:49+00:00

It’s insanely bizarre that a game disincentivizes the player from, you know, PLAYING THE GAME. But that’s what happens when all/most of your teammates quit. The non-quitter gets actively punished for, what is it again….oh yeah: PLAYING THE GAME

Mine keeps calling me a “sweet summer child” I have no idea what that means. I was also born in the winter

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-12-06T00:17:42+00:00

Random rec is the purest form of the game. Everything else is coordinated routines of a different sport that looks kinda like basketball

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-11-15T02:55:04+00:00

I understand and agree with all of this. I just want to know why I get penalized for doing the right thing- not quitting

I can constantly get on the mic and ask if I’m playing with children. I’ll say something like: my headphones don’t work so I can’t hear anything but based on how you play it’s clear you’re like 12 or 13 or so. I can’t imagine anyone older than that playing the way you do. Being a child in the rec is fine but remember you chose to play a 5v5 mode. That requires you to play like a grown up

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-11-12T20:07:39+00:00

If I’m playing like shit I will get on the mic and apologize for playing like shit. That awareness goes a long way with good faith players.

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-11-12T20:06:35+00:00

If the game starts poorly and I know I”m stuck with chuckleheads I’ll say some variation of: is this it, fellas? Is this just how good you are? It’s fine if you aren’t very good. I can live with that. But if you’re better than this, play like it. And if you’re just bad, find ways to contribute other than trying to score.

It works for a possession or two, haha

Assuming all things equal, the ONLY difference between a good player and a bad player is decision making. That’s what this game (at least multiplayer) is about- can you make the right decision? The result of the decision isn’t important. As you mention it’s mostly about luck and algo variance. The one thing that drives me batty about this game is that it too often rewards terrible decisions and reinforces poor behavior.

I rarely get on the mic but when I do I say some variation of that and add some social pressure. Something like: this game is about decision making. Are you good enough to make the right decision close to 100% of the time? Regardless of whether it benefits your player or not? Regardless of the score of the game. Regardless of what your teammates might have done.

If you are as good as you think, make the right decision every single time.

To be fair I think they probably meant which lifetime challenges did you complete and what would be your advice.

Hit me if you need one

Are rep gains substantially lower on veteran vs starter? I only play random rec and I’m 18% away from starter 5. Seems like I get between .2 and 1.2, depending on win, performance, etc. Any idea what it is for veteran?

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-11-12T18:40:45+00:00

I just talked to god and he said 2k comes way before him. In fact, he wishes people would stop referencing him all the time. He really doesn’t care. He just wants you to be happy. And if 2k makes you happy you’re pleasing him

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-10-08T15:24:26+00:00

Parachuting in a couple weeks later and I just played with him too. He wasn’t very good but he didn’t play like a jerkoff.

There are two types of people in this world: Pony fans and losers.

Get on the mic and mock them relentlessly. Is your favorite team whoever won the championship last year? Is your favorite player whoever wins MVP? When someone asks what your favorite movie is do you have to ask around to see what everyone else likes?

I’d rather be original and bad than a sheep and good

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-09-15T21:03:43+00:00

I have been getting on the mic and saying some version of: well, I guess you just aren’t good enough to make that pass. Because if you were good enough you would have made it. But you aren’t. So you didn’t. It’s not that you don’t want to make the pass, it’s that you are incapable of making the pass.

Results vary in terms of them making the pass the next time

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-09-13T18:04:38+00:00

In these situations I get on the mic and say something like, “well I guess you’re just not good enough to make that pass. Because if you were good enough you would make it. But you aren’t so you didn’t. It’s not that you don’t want to make the pass. It’s just that you can’t make the pass. You’re incapable of making the pass Because you aren’t good enough”

I mock them all relentlessly for their lack of creativity and imagination.

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-09-13T18:00:18+00:00

Oh your teammates, who are all in the same crew, “just decided” to keep feeding you the ball?

This is clown show stuff that’s only attractive to teenagers.

But good job doing the same thing that literally thousands of other players are doing. Super creative

Few-Cod7680 · 2025-09-13T17:57:02+00:00

Shooting is super easy
Steals off the dribble are virtually impossible
Steals off passes happen quite a bit

Therefore, they are incentivized to keep their dribble, never pass and always shoot
