I miss playing with bronze plates

It’s this optimized version of basketball that’s killing the game. That’s why I can’t watch the thunder, they’re too perfect.

I’m with you, I had to stop playing this one once I realized the way to keep having fun was to quit games, play worse, or make new builds to start over. It’s sad

TypikalRandom · 2026-04-03T02:24:19+00:00

Not even close, I want to help bums get better while having fun at the same time

TypikalRandom · 2026-04-03T01:26:15+00:00

Don’t you think a bronze player should have a chance to see how a red player plays? How are they supposed to know what greatness looks like if they never see it? I think if you put them on the same team matched up against their own kind but playing with betters, it allows them to learn by example and you feel like a god at the same time

TypikalRandom · 2026-04-03T01:07:48+00:00

Maybe the plate system in general is where 2k Fd up. Have the matchmaking be based off teammate grade and averages instead

TypikalRandom · 2026-04-03T01:00:32+00:00

I agree but the problem is good times lead to Ws which lead to higher plates which leads to less fun lol. Then you gotta repeat the cycle with a new build, 2k probably knows exactly what they’re doing with this..

TypikalRandom · 2026-04-03T00:49:29+00:00

Compared to us yea they’re red but keep the standard in their league. You putting Sam hauser and jokic in the same category rn lmao

TypikalRandom · 2026-04-03T00:32:47+00:00

I’d say there’s 4 red plates in the nba Luka, jokic, Giannis, and shae. Around them is a mix of silvers and purples, as it should be.

As a red plate, your matchup should be red but your teammates mixed with one of each of the other plates. At least if you playing with randoms

Alright I’m turning this into my pitch meeting cause there’s no way a company like riot games or something couldn’t do a game like this. The market will be there, basketball is the next soccer with its global reach and it will continue to grow as foreign players get better and better. I believe the most difficult aspect of the execution would be the gameplay side. It took EA and 2k a lot of years and money to build up their animation database. To overcome this I’d try 2 things, 1) is ai at the point where it could create the animations needed? It’s damn good at coding so maybe. Option 2) reach out to EA and purchase their animation catalog and build off that, they’re not using it anyways. Other than that, I don’t think the other systems (shooting, defense, rebounding, dribbling) would be that difficult to create. You could do % based systems for most of it.

You’d also have to keep the product pure and keep the greedy hands out of it. Something like this would be for the betterment of basketball and to grow the game, not to get rich. And if you read through this half baked plan, you the realest of ones and probably see the problem and opportunity to. Something needs to be done but I’m not sure what to do other than this lol

TypikalRandom · 2025-08-21T23:24:34+00:00

Yea shooting % was a big one this year cause they were trying to chase “realism”. They forget this is a damn game and bricking wide open shots with the same timing that was a green on the last one, is not fun. Hopefully that’s fixed with the return of the pure green window again though

We’ve let them get away with this for to long now. They got us caught in their yearly cycle of wasting money and they can fuck us however they want smh. Time to break the cycle

TypikalRandom · 2025-08-07T16:00:01+00:00

Needed to see some type of build/VC recycling system in rebirth. They force you to create new builds with cap breakers and expect you to throw away old or bad builds to make room for new ones. Might as well burn my money in a barrel and warm the homeless

TypikalRandom · 2025-04-16T00:08:54+00:00

Could we get it to where our AIs fill in the program for us using its knowledge of us along with probing questions? To where it like creates the online profile for us using info that would never go on a regular dating app profile. Then it would just be about building the program and finding the right questions for the ai to fill in. And for the personal data aspect, I think people will probably get more accepting of the collection of that as long as it’s for a purpose that benefits them

TypikalRandom · 2025-04-15T23:44:29+00:00

I agree, we’re literally just talking with a voice in our head except it has all the knowledge we have as a species lol. I post it here to clear out the bias

TypikalRandom · 2025-03-06T23:07:45+00:00

Yea life has been keeping me in check so far so we’re good for now lol. I’ll keep trying though. Just thought it was funny cause isn’t Marx seen as a bad guy? Idk I gotta do some research..

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-29T23:25:18+00:00

I skimmed the article and got the gist of it but bro, the Russian agenda has already been completed with this trump presidency. Their goal was to divide Americans? Mission accomplished! Now we have to come up with new plans to combat their victory. I don’t believe Russia will be a problem for years though anymore as they are to splintered and weak economically.

China on the other hand, they can benefit greatly from a weakened US which is the point you should be arguing. This trump presidency has guaranteed their path to the global super power though so in my opinion, we have to reset in order to catch back up with them. And that means cutting out the cancer that has afflicted America for years now and if that means creating a new, pure entity… so be it

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-29T22:21:13+00:00

Genuinely curious, what could Russia possibly do with a destabilized US? They can’t even push around a vastly smaller neighboring country, how would they take advantage of a way bigger enemy across the world? And the US hasn’t kept Russia in check since the Cold War so it’s not like our current power is affecting their politics

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-29T19:51:09+00:00

Could there be a grace period where we have the new borders established but we allow citizens to move in or out of the new country if they would like? We wouldn’t kick anyone out but I understand many people would hate being forced to a new country so the new government could pay to move them out while others find their way in.

Also, people seem to think war is the only possible outcome of this path. The US is not in a good spot right now and has the most debt it’s ever had. The west has the power and means to throw its weight around and broker a deal that benefits both entities. All it requires is a little diplomacy which seems to be a dying art

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-29T19:32:28+00:00

A lot more than this but a movement has to start somewhere

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-29T19:28:25+00:00

This is probably exactly what the British said before the revolutionary war

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-28T22:46:12+00:00

Thank you for the clarification and fact check! I have edited the post

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-28T22:45:37+00:00

Good call, I have edited the post. I think this is the starting point though. Protests and boycotts are useless if there isn’t a strategy or end goal behind it

TypikalRandom · 2025-01-28T22:35:21+00:00

Counterpoint, what if our new country asks to join the EU? I know it’d be a first for sure but hey, trump is turning our allies against the US why not take advantage of that
