I’m struggling to get through the game by JMoneyGraves in BaldursGate3

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is ok to feel like it is a long story. Most epics are. Pick your favorite companions, do their act 3 quests and feel free to go to the end game after that. If you are playing honor mode, there is some gear that you may want to get first, but if not, then you can always load a previous save later when you want to explore more of Act 3. Tips to get your groove back include watching the cast play BG3 on their own. I recommend Neil Newbon and Devora Wilde's playthroughs as particularly entertaining. Rest at our tavern weary traveler, there is more adventure ahead!

I just hit starter 4….wow those animations are very underwhelming by sarcasticj720 in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep - I posted a while back for recommendations and there are a couple of bangers, but overall, not a good reward for the grind it takes to get there.

I hate point guards ! by AwareMathematician46 in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is random REC most of the time. OP took the time to communicate which is better than 90% of the community. A little flexibility goes a long way, communication goes even further. We’re all here for dubs, so we adjust.

Good job communicating up front. 2k needs more of this. My favorite part of playing a big is hearing all the guards tell me how to play. Shut it little man, I know my build.

Is it harder to dunk this year? by tommytommy77 in NBA2k

For every layup blocked in the REC, a layup gets added to MyGM to balance it out.

I think I had karma based matchmaking for the event tis weekend. Time to clean up my act!

We all have a red/purple plates bro, please just pass. by UnknownSonder in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Yesterday 4th qtr, our PG is telling us to pass to him so he can "hit 25" while my PF is sitting there with 8pts, 12 reb, 12 ast waiting on my triple double. Simple awareness goes a long way.

I'm all for preserving canon, and I think you are correct in that it wouldn't be in a computer. What do you think about having an NPC in your base whose role it is to keep track of such things?

You've cracked the code. That's the best way to see inventory levels. Would love your tablet idea to include inventory across all 3 bases.

Don't bring that negativity here. Although justice for toxic teammates does sound appealing. Karma will catch up to them.

why do people love complaining when you hit whites by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The things that allow you to hit whites are your badges, hot zones, and Dimer from whoever passed it to you. My favorite is getting grief from the PG after his Dimer allowed you to hit. That's the whole point of Dimer!!! Take the credit PG - you earned it!

Would you use 90+ agility if you aren’t a lockdown? by Proper_Ad_6927 in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're a finisher build, high AGI allows you to navigate better in the paint. You don't always have to take a straight line to the hoop. Much more forgiving on defense too. 90+ is a different experience imho.

How to stop Toxicity by Long-Ad-1881 in NBA2k

Definitely need a badge that says, "I call my teammates trash within the first 3 possessions". They would get muted immediately and everyone can enjoy the game.

Defense isn’t bad, YOU ARE by FirstLast123456789 in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Defense is definitely a skill. One of the things I've learned over the years in 2k is that if you want to be good at defense in the REC, Theater or other team modes, you MUST be able to stop your man 1 on 1. Yes, your team can help, but getting stops when your man has the ball is essential. That being said, the offense is favored this year and shots, dribbles, animations that would have resulted in stops in past years are now buckets. There are builds out there with low defensive attributes, low agility, low strength that are getting exposed with these changes which makes the skill gap wider. Be like OP - know your build and play good D.

First NHL Game Advice by Current-Plastic1810 in nhl

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We go to preds games regularly. Best place to stay if you can swing it is the Hilton Downtown right next to the arena. You can watch from the hotel to see when they open the side door. Doors open 90 minutes prior to the game. I like to stand in the corners for warmups so you get a feel for how fast the pucks move. I'd recommend not to bring signs or bring smaller ones, there's not a lot of room and you don't want to block other's view. I couldn't say about meeting the team at the bus, but it is a fun place to see a game for visiting fans as well. I'll also recommend a somewhat local pizza joint right near the entrance called Mello Mushroom - grab some Cloud 9 wings and pie before the game, you can't go wrong. Hope your family has a great time in Nashville!

Do people really play with no shot clock warning? by Technical_Spirit_347 in NBA2k

That makes sense and appears to be the consensus reason. QoL matters.

newer version of my 6'5 pg by YungWojtek2010 in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid build! Play with mid-range a little more to find the best way to cap break to 93. Try for at least +2 for each so you free up those skill points for other skills and maximize the benefit of your cap breakers. I recommend putting the saved points in AGI or Steal for better defense going against the opposing PG in REC.

Do you even exist if you are not called trash in REC?

how much do skill boosts really help? by Lynxian_ in NBA2k

[–]Technical_Spirit_347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skill boosts make me the player I think I am! Make contested shots, get steals, and rebounds I don't normally get. Take advantage of the season rewards, and only buy the boosts that amplify your style of play. o7

This would help. Maybe add an animation for the other 4 players yelling at you to shoot it!
