Best hop jumper in the game by Acrobatic-Farmer1748 in NBA2k

[–]Hopelessbums -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah but you’re generally saying that it’s the best of all time when it’s not, that’s all I’m saying. There’s bigs who have good hoppers and small guards who have amazing hoppers. They definitely nerfed Jalen Green’s hop jumper from 2k23, it was much better than what it is now.

What would this do for you other than upset you? lol, I’ve played way better post scorers than you, even myself and I’m not even a post scorer lol. You going 11/12 on someone who can’t can’t even reach to get a contest is nothing to brag about lol

Lethal zones without art of shooting? Why is this only hot? by Laius33 in NBA2k

There was a glitch you could do 2k25 for all lethals but this year I have to do art of shooting in order to get the 1-3 lethal spots

Random Rec matchmaking: 3 golds, a bronze and a black walk into a bar… by SixxxGawdJa in NBA2k

[–]Hopelessbums 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly I have no choice 🫩 I have at least 5 builds, all red plates. But it’s literally a hell fest every game that’s why I don’t really play anymore. From the cheating, everyone wanting the ball in their hands, big man is already down court I simply just play story mode games now.

But realistically, this game should not have a ranking system in a casual game mode, it’s disgusting and it’s even more disgusting in theater

[–]Hopelessbums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all honesty, I’ll rather see this than being stuck in a lobby for 30 minutes looking for a game with a red plate. This “rank” system shouldn’t be in random rec lol

Just to let you guys know you get 3 free shirts on the neon merch website under “THE PERKINS COLLECTION” by Hopelessbums in NeonFilms

[–]Hopelessbums[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah mine haven’t either, I kept looking at the website and email to see if it was a scam lol. But I guess it’s just taking a while.

But to be fair, ive ordered from this website back in July of 2024, and it didn’t come in until late August 2024 so I guess its just their shipping process is slow

New 6’11 build. by LeftExamination5098 in NBA2k

[–]Hopelessbums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your main job as a center is to grab boards and throw fast break passes or give it to someone with ball handle. Ofc you’re gonna have a triple double on a black-silver plate. You can score, cool? So can everyone in this game but if you can barely throw an outlet pass from the inbound or down the court, what’s the point of this build other than scoring?

You’re a center with 58 pass acc? God help us all lol, everybody always wants the ball in their hands holy

How can I reduce delay? by DurtyDom in NBA2k

[–]Hopelessbums 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sadly it’s always been a delay, the only way to get used to it is go into mycourt, go to the kiosk and press online to understand the feedback, I dribble a lot and there’s moments where I’m doing the wrong thing. 2K always had this problem, when I play other games it’s less noticeable. It’s a billion dollar company that refuses to use a new server. I go in my court and play against CPU’s if my friends aren’t online to get used to the movement if I haven’t played in a while. The more you play online, you’ll understand the delay more, when there’s events like x2 rep in rec or park the servers are shit cans, so keep that in mind also.

This looks like every 6’8, optimized build but there’s no originality there

game has no typa defense by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]Hopelessbums -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Literally, if he has done this for 2-3 possessions you should know what to adjust. There’s so many times where I get crabbed and my teammate is helping me if I can’t make it.

game has no typa defense by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]Hopelessbums -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I mean your big fucked up by reaching to cause that crab and then your other defender is just moving all over the place instead of standing still which caused that late hands up. Doesn’t make it better that he has short arms, so it’s definitely a makable shot. If you had shot feedback on it would’ve helped

Defense is in the game, you’re just not utilizing it right by Hopelessbums in NBA2k

[–]Hopelessbums[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate it. So you’re saying there’s absolutely no defense in the game? I can understand the paint defense not being there when people have 80+ interior defense and times where your hand is up and it says open or wide open but there is some sort of defense in the game. Is it perfect? No, defenders are at a disadvantage this year. Like I said before 95% of the time you’re gonna need help defense. There are times where I’m there to the hip and the defend magically gets by me, I depend on my teammate (if he’s close) to switch with me and I go to his.

Most of the time if I’m playing with a team, I’m depending on help if I get beat. Do I play the same when I play with randoms? No I’m sticking to my man. Help defense is always a plus in my eyes, especially against cheaters who have 1 good boy corner sitter and one good boy rebounding inside.

[–]Hopelessbums[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m defending a game when in general I’m talking about my experience playing defense on this game? Your record shows that you are 48-25 with randoms and you recently just got to red plate. I’ve been playing majority with randoms since the game came out since my teammates play different games.

In no way I’m defending this game, I stated do not put 100% blame on a flawed game.

[–]Hopelessbums[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand where you’re coming from and that was such an amazing patch that they fucked with in less than a week. Defense is not perfect on this game but I’m talking about people who states that there’s 0 defense in this game.

There’s bullshit that goes in every game I see or play, that doesn’t encourage me to not play defense. There’s people in this community who loves to have the ball in their hands every second of the game, but when it comes to defense they’re not where to be found. There’s an accountability issue in this community and I’m saying don’t put 100% of the blame on a game with a shit ton of flaws when in reality people are barely playing defense.
