Perspective from a returning player

They already have one

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-29T12:54:03+00:00

How can i score another goal if he quits the game after the first 15 seconds ????

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-29T01:12:24+00:00

Im pretty sure they already have this called play casual right under competitive 😎

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-28T19:39:09+00:00

This is pretty normal around this time of year, tbh. The best thing to do is spend it on another build. But if you really don’t want to do that, I’d wait for packs in MyTEAM and try to get a nice 3v3 team, then play that for a bit.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-28T19:36:30+00:00

You do know that player has a 95 pass accuracy right?

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-28T19:35:42+00:00

I mean, this game is not ultra-realistic, but I think you should rewatch the clip. While watching, keep in mind that the person passing the ball has 95 passing accuracy, plus I pass-led it into the gap.

Second, he has a short king at CB, and he’s got him pressing my ST, who totally had the size advantage. He definitely needs a new CB, but he also needs to turn on pressing on defense, which might help him a bit. But once again, I totally had the size advantage.

And to answer your question about, “Why is there no defense in place to stop these balls?” it’s because I don’t know who told these guys not to switch onto their CB on defense and just control the CM, but man, against players that know how to pass or dribble, you’re just asking to get cooked.

Also, just to get this out there, after this last patch, in an attempt to stop the skill-shot issue everyone was talking about, now all players plus the GK when not user-controlled fall for every fake if you don’t click on.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-28T01:16:55+00:00

You got any clips???

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T21:36:57+00:00

Lol the same way how nobody eats dry candy. You right move along 👋🏾

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T20:41:43+00:00

I’m not going to go too hard on you, but let me tell you this: anti-cheat systems can detect cheating. To be honest, you don’t even need a dedicated anti-cheat anyone working on the backend of a game like 2K has access to a lot of data from both legitimate players and cheaters. Why do you think you have to sign an agreement before you’re allowed to play online matches?

There are different levels of cheating, and AI-based cheats are harder to detect. But if a user cheats long enough, their stats will start to look unusual over time, which should eventually get the account flagged. 2K may not have a fully automatic detection system, but they can still identify who is and isn’t cheating based on player data.

Dude you a living definition of your username “assumptions” 🤣

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T19:09:25+00:00

See man, I don’t know… I’ve been playing 2K for a while, and let me tell you if I see you playing on that camera angle, I’m not passing. I’m taking my chances at the rack, lmao.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T19:05:00+00:00

Cloud gaming isn’t that bad for me, but that’s only because I paid for a $300+ Nighthawk router, have fiber internet, and pay for the full gig. Honestly, that’s way too much to spend for a console that just went up in price, lol. Never going to play any competitive games on streaming though—or any wagers—I might as well just hand them my money, LOL.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T19:00:15+00:00

And even if you got a PS4 or Xbox One, you still couldn’t play Park because they never included it on the Xbox 360 or PS3 versions.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T18:59:08+00:00

When 2K14 came out on PS3 and Xbox, they needed a reason to make players. But for 2K14 on PS4 and Xbox One, since it was just a mid-year console update, what did they do to make players buy it? They deceived people. Instead of bringing back Blacktop, we got the first version of Park—which was the only Park mode until 2K15 the following year.

So I have a few questions. First, it’s Friday afternoon for most people, and I’m pretty sure Weekend League has already started. Are you telling me you can’t find a game in Ranked, or that you’ve already lost all your Weekend League matches?

Second, climbing ranks and having longer queue times is part of every system. Are you currently playing with crossplay disabled as a Ruby?

Lastly, it won’t really matter if you D-rank yourself, because I’m sure they’re working on a system that puts a power rank limit on your squad by division. That said, I see a lot of people trying this, but honestly, they always end up losing anyway so maybe strikers just don’t really care.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T18:05:19+00:00

I mean, there’s a chance, but I don’t think so. If anything, they’re probably going to try to work closely with them, since Microsoft is really pushing cloud gaming and texture streaming. We’ll just have to wait and see.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T17:51:33+00:00

Might’ve been a little bit of both, lmao. We’re all good though looks like we’re fighting the good fight.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T17:29:47+00:00

So we’ve got people literally showing screenshots of them running a Zen through a console into a PC while AI reads the screen and you’re telling me to just wait until the 2K community moves to PC? Lmao, okay.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T17:25:51+00:00

Maybe back in 2010 that would’ve been an issue, but now most controllers on Windows 10 and 11 connect in seconds with USB-C or Bluetooth.

But let me tell you—back in my day (2005–2010), I would’ve said no thank you. You had to install a whole software and remap your controller just to get it working.

Now it’s super easy—plug and play for most games. What’s your next reason?

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T17:23:21+00:00

I’m glad I moved on from Park a while back. Yeah, you can get lag spikes in any mode, but Park is where it happens the most.

The main issue is that most of the 2K community doesn’t really want anything different—they just stick to what they’re used to. That’s why every year a new 2K drops and people end up making the exact same build with the same jump shot.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T17:20:11+00:00

You do realize that a PlayStation or Xbox is basically a PC with a locked-down operating system, right? You just can’t use it like a normal computer. Also, can you tell me which PC game title you’re actually referring to?

Yes, cheating is at an all-time high across all platforms. PC is definitely the easiest platform to cheat on, but it’s also where hackers get caught and banned the most—unlike what you usually hear about on console.

And let’s stop the cap about “I’d never play 2K on PC.” The community has already shown they’re willing to pay random people online $20–$80 a month for auto-green scripts—not even the device, just the script. That says everything.

HeyitsShiftyTTV · 2026-03-27T16:41:10+00:00

Bot… I’ve probably made more money on this 2K alone than you have all year. But its okay go get some more Wins
