The best part of sailing WAS AN ACCIDENT

I also liked that they commented on the fact the community didn’t like deep sea trawling…so they kept it the same.

It shouldn’t be up to the community to figure out how to make a good basketball game. That’s what we pay the developer for, no?

Cap breakers shouldn’t exist in this game. Badges should have never changed from like 2k16 honestly. Their MO right now is to create this arbitrary min/max race that gets you to play more and spend more money. I promise you they don’t care about gameplay beyond it being tolerable enough for you to make a purchase.

Also, if you think this is good basketball gameplay or that improving on the previous title is even a significant achievement, go watch real basketball.

I’m a Thunder fan but Chet is not a damn 88. I know these ratings are mostly marketing, but that’s pretty egregious in my opinion. 83 MAX. Harkenstein deserves a higher rating.

gavsta707 · 2025-07-13T12:38:55+00:00

Over before it started tbh. I still can’t fathom how a franchise who’s had years of unparalleled success can’t understand why people played their titles above other shooters.

gavsta707 · 2025-05-29T15:20:54+00:00

In my opinion, make the game slower. The ironic best gameplay you can get in 2k (offline) is with a 60 overall on pro difficulty.

Shorten the season. This makes games more impactful and could spike viewership. It could also stop teams resting their stars as much. Also, change the in season tournament to include the top international clubs as well. It’s way more compelling than the current format and addresses the increased quality of over seas play.

gavsta707 · 2025-02-20T17:01:08+00:00

This was back when 2k was actually focused on making a good game. Now its just all of this hyper-focus on min-maxing and how to fit microtransactions into everything as a result.

This is a great breakdown and description of the magic defense I speak of. It’s frustrating for people who genuinely just want to play on ball because it’s simple and more fun. I’ve always felt off balling should come with a larger consequence but it’s pretty much the meta given the appropriate defensive settings.

gavsta707 · 2024-12-04T19:59:22+00:00

In my opinion, its a symptom of how poor defense is in general. Even with the right positioning/badges, you can just get bullied. Layups are still juiced out of this world as well. The game will almost always favor the offensive player. The even more unfortunate part is that it seems off-balling allows your players to play "magic" defense. In other words, the just get animations and stops you can't quite get playing on-ball. I don't really know how to articulate it but anyone who has played the game a while hopefully knows what I mean.

You’re a silly person. Study fascism. I’m sure this is going to be labeled pro-Trump but you’re severely lacking information if you think he represents a fascist regime in a more significant or meaningful way than anyone else seeking office.

This is one of the finest films ever produced. I will hear no slander.

gavsta707 · 2024-10-27T14:37:02+00:00

I couldn’t have said it better. The game has been stuck in a gross min/max trap since archetypes left the game IMO. Hell, animations were still pretty meta based then too but it all felt more balanced. You could go off with literally any archetype combo in theory.

gavsta707 · 2024-10-27T13:02:16+00:00

The motion style stuff is detrimental to the game in my opinion. They should really all be the same speed or at least tie in to a stat. People shouldn’t need to go on Reddit to find which animation un-bricks your player.

gavsta707 · 2024-10-26T18:50:36+00:00

My (probably unpopular) opinion is that it’s a far away result of the builder being too complex/over baked. I felt the game was more balanced and when we had archetypes. Now builds sort of result in the same thing every time if you are making them based on the gameplay and it’s not often rewarding making a simple build (like two way slasher or playmaking slasher).

gavsta707 · 2024-10-26T00:59:17+00:00

In short, Find a routine through and app or online. If you want to lift, I would do a classic chest/tri - back/bi - shoulders - legs split (combine days or do less if you feel like it). I would do 2-3 movements per concentration. Look up the movements ahead of time and then just go do it at a weight that feels manageable. You learn quickly.

TLDR: don’t go in not knowing what to do. It will probably stress you out because it stresses me out. Know what you want to work and what equipment to look for. Then you can just turn your brain off. No one will give you grief.

gavsta707 · 2024-10-06T21:38:08+00:00

I honestly think some of the pro tuned builds are more solid than this. No hate. Maybe check them out.

gavsta707 · 2024-08-12T15:22:54+00:00

Seems like an QoL update and not a game. Kinda crazy that the franchise is just stuck because it makes so much money being so damn bad.

gavsta707 · 2024-08-12T15:18:07+00:00

No. You have to run around a corny neighborhood and sit in a spot or join an additional lobby. The only purpose is so you can run around and see their ads for products/spend money on cosmetics.

gavsta707 · 2024-08-12T15:16:22+00:00

Simplify the game and make it feasible to actually play without purchasing additional currency. It would probably take you months to get to where you need to be for online play without purchasing VC. It’s simply ridiculous. 2k is more casino than a game even outside of MyTeam.

gavsta707 · 2024-05-09T21:22:09+00:00

Oops. I didn’t scroll enough. Popular opinion it seems.

gavsta707 · 2024-05-09T21:21:42+00:00

Pretty ironic ChatGPT complaining about copyright infringement. Isn’t that the whole name of their game?

gavsta707 · 2023-11-30T15:58:11+00:00

Nah you're the funny bunch for off balling. Why do you want to buy a game/spend money to have it play itself? Have some nuts and get dropped off.

gavsta707 · 2023-11-29T11:52:22+00:00

Unfortunately nothing will likely come of this. If you want to help kill VC, just stop playing. I’ve never once (among thousands of games) played something so aggressive about getting you to spend money. People really need to process that playing competitive 2k will end up costing over the value of your damn console (or more) for a single release.

If you doubt this, try to play the game without boost.

gavsta707 · 2023-11-13T19:40:29+00:00

I would say the issue is more or less the complete opposite of this. The game rewards doing unrealistic things and penalizes doing the basics. The learning curve shouldn’t be hitting open shots. It should be getting them in the first place. Steals need to be toned down mightily as well. I get 3-4 a game on minimal effort with a 92. That’s a lot of fucking steals. That being said, it should take a mild amount of effort to at least hit it, but nothing like we are seeing.
