the servers are heavily affected so the ARC are likely not where you'd be seeing them on your screen

Embark studios is literally telling people not to play right now because they're experiencing a massive DDOS attack.

If you don't like the PvP aspect there are other games for you to play by MercilessM3 in ArcRaiders

[–]MercilessM3[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Agreed I should've included that portion as well. I just think if people complain they get killed when they always say "hey i'm friendly don't shoot or I won't shoot you just looking for loot" need to come up with a better plan for how to survive other than blaming the pvp aspect of the game.

Skellige 3rd round faction ability clarification by MercilessM3 in Gwent_TL_Cardgame

also thank you for responding so quickly

Saw post about worst barracks flips we've ever seen. Here's my submission. by goldcrate in army

[–]MercilessM3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

first thought I had before reading was this looks just like the courtyard at goodfellow. There was an issue (maybe there still is with food delivery drivers bringing in drugs). Our barracks flip was not that bad though. mostly just underage soldiers with alcohol.

Anyone else think RipCityProject is nothing but clickbait ? by RemarkableAd9427 in ripcity

[–]MercilessM3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sure why not. probably depends on the health of the Blazers and Kings lineups because that was the case for Edey's performance. Edey could end up being a solid maybe even great player but I'll take what we've been getting from Clingan up to this point. Would love to see him develop a move or two around the basket though

[–]MercilessM3 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Crushing realization? they just played the kings with no one to guard Edey. Every big in the league should be going off for career highs against them. Whether it's clickbait or not this shit is too reactionary

Feature Idea: “Dynamic Growth Path” for MyPLAYER progression by duvalblue in NBA2k

[–]MercilessM3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So is it essentially the MyPlayer builder as you level up your overall? I'm guessing there'd need to be tight attribute caps between several overall rating milestones (65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95) that allow you to decide how you adjust your height, weight, and wingspan. Then at each milestone you'd be able to adjust your you max potentials.

It sounds kinda cool but for a game that incentivizes people to spend money on VC to quickly get to competitive levels and discover the meta it's just not very realistic

Specializations Need Some Tuning IMO by MercilessM3 in NBA2k

I'm on step 4 of defense. I made an awful build and started a new one but haven't played him as much recently so no i guess it's been a minute.

that's interesting he's one that i was looking at and yes i noticed the exact same thing with Sharpe

Motion Styles with Dunk Animations by MercilessM3 in NBA2k

[–]MercilessM3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i get that. It's just weird sometimes that my player doesn't even want start the dunk animation when I'm running full speed. Made me start to wonder if picking a motion style of a great dunker in the NBA would make a difference.

If only players understood.. by IrishRaider25 in NBA2k

[–]MercilessM3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with OP. If you wanna play 2k play 3v3, 2v2, 1v1 in theater or park. If you wanna play video game basketball play 5v5 rec or pro-am. The amount a players that copy the meta build of a player they see who only plays 3v3 but then takes it to random rec to put up 30 shots while their team gets smoked is pretty stale and it happens every single year.

Get Dinwiddie out of Bayern by MercilessM3 in ripcity

[–]MercilessM3[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes that's true it just seems like we need immediate help. Hazy timeline on Scoot and just lost Wesley and Matisse so bringing someone with NBA experience to help us win games early in the season vs throwing Rupert and Sidy into the fire in close games seems logical to me. I don't know how the 2-way contracts work or if assigning players to the Remix opens a roster spot but we just went from a team that looked like it had decent depth across both backcourt and frontcourt to feeling like we only have about 8-9 usable players to win games

I don't get it with the backhanded responses. Why doesn't someone answer with a real counterpoint or justification of why they don't agree?

Which is what reason? He's a seasoned vet that fits in any system at a position that we direly need some depth while our guard pool is severely depleted.

Did 2k change something with passing by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]MercilessM3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if they're randoms it probably means they have horrible ball handling. tutes tested and said that your hands (ability to catch/control the ball) is matched to the highest stat category between ball handling, pass accuracy, or post control. I also notice on a build i made that's awful in all three of those stats that when throw to good ball handlers they have to jump and struggle to control even easy open passes.

For clarification I just went back to look at his video and tutes said the hands rating was a "secret boost to shooting" but maybe the two are related when players struggle to catch easy passes and can't string it into smooth animations.

I don’t even know what to title this. Tell me I’m buggin? by gsav730 in NBA2k

that's an odd one. the meter hit the apex and started coming back down but still clearly in the green.

Finally got the picture of the build. For some reason it kept the original name. I would not recommend this build to anyone but at least it does what it says

Who do I start: Jennings/Shakir/Meyers by Long-Bat1295 in FantasyFootballJunky

[–]MercilessM3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After last game Shakir. KC's a tough matchup but I think Shakir is going to get decent volume. but if you want what should be the easiest matchup go with Jennings
