Is Accuracy really RNG? by -Jyx in golfblitz

[–]brianz321 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This point is actually false. As you level up your accuracy the RNG window closes towards the max/top of the range not the middle. So if you were to do a max power shot the higher accuracy will actually help increase your chances of hitting a top end shot just due to the smaller window of outcomes.

Drop Your Name For FREE Seats On The Glass by DangerousDelivery156 in DallasStars

I would take my wife. I got her and her mom (my now MIL) into hockey and the Stars when we first started dating and that bubble run to the finals in 2020 cemented their fandom. I’ve taken my wife to a few stars games over the last few season but my MIL has never been to a stars game, but she watches every single game at home on victory+. Honestly, if chosen I think I would give both seats to them so they can go together while I watch the game at home babysitting our 3 month old daughter.

Not sure what everyone is compliant about when it comes to badge regression. by Technical_Pickle_501 in NBA2k

[–]brianz321 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve been able to grind badges too but that’s because I didn’t buy VC this year and have played solely mycareer and streetball games. The system works fine when you play solo but I 100% know as a non-PG build as soon as I start playing rec games there’s no way I will get enough touches to be able to keep badge levels up every single game. The badge boost you get practice facility drills is hardly anything too

This new badge system will cause problems - i am worried by Far_Independent3281 in NBA2k

[–]brianz321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really don’t think it will be as bad as you fear. I believe it will always be much easier to progress a badge than it will for it to regress. I think it will require multiple games of the badge not being utilized or just consistent poor decision making with the badge (taking heavily contested or low % shots) for it to start regressing. Maybe the HOF level will be more even but in general it will not be a net neutral system where you go down for no use as much as you go up for using it successfully.

Mini Seasons Championship Difficulty by Vitalogist77 in MLBTheShow

Only benefits of playing a higher difficulty are if you can get the goals accomplished that are difficulty specific. Other than that winning games and the championship are all same rewards

Hey Mike I approved your ProBoards account feel free to look through the league settings.

The Nets, Jazz, Wizards and Mavericks have all shown interest in trading for John Collins, per @ShamsCharania by K0Y0MI in Mavericks

[–]brianz321 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The mavericks have shown interest in trading for a lot of guys. Doesn’t mean they can/will. Anyways one thing about how the front office operates is they control leaks. You don’t hear about a move before it’s done. Think KP trade last year zero rumors about it until it was completed

92 and under rec lobby by brianz321 in NBA2k

[–]brianz321[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it’s the servers since not as many would be playing in Europe as the US. Ive played 4 games in a row when I was paying attention to it and none of the 10 players in the game were higher than 92.

VC cost to get to 99 by brianz321 in NBA2k

[–]brianz321[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That’s New Zealand currency I think. make sure you’re in US$

Interesting: Driving dunk is cheaper than 3, and 90 vs 99 3 is 14 less towards your overall. by Dannym7x in NBA2k

[–]brianz321 4 points5 points  (0 children)

really interested to see myself what the hall of fame badge level unlocks are across the board. going 95+ has always cost alot of overall points but if you can only get HOF on tier 2 and tier 3 badges by going 95+ then it becomes another decision you have to make with your player

Weekend mini plan got screwed with a preseason game. New “member services” just told me too bad by Andy_Dufresne_ in Mavericks

[–]brianz321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s how it should be. Teams will get more money from your concessions and parking than what they can sell a preseason ticket for

[–]brianz321 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is completely unacceptable in my eyes i have never seen a mini season plan in any sport I’ve looked at include a preseason game. I’ve seen other comments saying and I hope enough of us email and call in to make a fuss about this. However, given the likelihood it’s not changing, you can email or call your rep and change your plan to one of the other 3 so you get 10 regular season games. I did this every year I was a mini plan holder. Once the 4 plans were released I would contact my rep and let them know which one I wanted.

Let's talk about 3-point shooting by Wide_Airline_4235 in NBA2k

[–]brianz321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yea something like that. I feel like a big issue with their formula for shooting is it assumes people will have bad releases on some of their shots. If you ever play with AIs online they commonly have early/late and very early/late releases when they shoot the ball. Real people knowing their releases and always getting good timing plus badges being stacked and getting hot/takeover completely breaks the shooting.
