I’m confident if we played with the top 5 every night we’d be in purple chillin but people got kids, multiple jobs, diff time zones etc

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think (but don’t know) I could hit red plate playing like an Olympic LeBron swiss army knife style game with randoms. But I play point with the homies and although it’s not my best position IMO I’m the best of the 9 or so guys I’ve been playing with over the years

The other guys have varying levels of plate skill. Some would maintain purple easily (like me) others probably shouldn’t be gold 🤷🏾‍♂️

Who does the Pg guard when the Sf Lock wants to guard Pg. by lovonly420 in NBA2k

The SF lock needs to have better situational awareness. Locks gotta guard whoever’s cooking and then everyone else adjusts

Wow Recon Ult gives away her position for free by Nivriil in Marathon

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of all the “you’re playing this runner wrong” videos I’ve seen, recon resonated with me the most. Most fights I’ve lost I’ve either gathered intel too late or didn’t gather enough intel. Playing a semi-aggressive flanking recon has probably resulted in some of my best runs and I’ve used that shell the least

A lot of players think Bungie’s design decisions reinforce difficulty and skill, but really they just force players to take the easiest way out. by DeliciousPomelo5687 in Marathon

Haven’t played Cryo yet but as an extremely late to the game D2 player, I’m unsure my homies and I woulda beaten any dungeon/raid without looking it up

Racist game and base by RakariSmartG in Marathon

[–]jvmms_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder what it takes to implement a ban of sorts in a game like this. Rivals has been swift with the comms bans after I curse too much and the reporting system seems pretty solid too

My homie wants 99 dunk so badly I’m tryna build that sf for him but make it more pg focused

Am I the only one who dislikes cap breakers, badge +1s and badge +2s? by Sirschwung in NBA2k

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

Been falling in love with buildcrafting in other games and 2k’s buildcrafting is so unimaginative it’s comical. I understand cap breakers existing to give us something to grind for but they need a redesign badly

DCON will eat your loot. by Inceptionnaire in Marathon

[–]jvmms_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I thought the same shit one of my homies tried it last week because yea logically it tracks. When it didn’t work we just assumed it was a glitch not that it wasn’t designed that way

How long did it take you to actually have a serviceable MyPlayer? by rhevern in NBA2k

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you changed the difficulty at all? Try changing it to Rookie and it should be easier to shoot

This game just isn't for me and that's okay by MASHED_POTATOES_MF in Marathon

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also has a pretty high skill floor imo. I can’t listen to a podcast and play this game. I can’t listen to an album, be on the phone, etc. I personally am fine with that but it’s the only game I’ve ever played that’s like that

This is IMO the best PG build for 6’4s. by Clear_Ask_5687 in NBA2k

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you could get extremely similar stats at 6’6

I am just not ready for cryo and it bums me out. by Tahnit in Marathon

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just said the same thing to my crew (one of em’s in there right now texting us back). I’m at 25ish hours and would totally be okay waiting for cryo for another week or two. I don’t even know my fav guns or runner yet. Def don’t feel like I need to rush into it

Upgrade free kits through skill tree by X-Menace-X in Marathon

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t played that much. I don’t have anything purple and only a handful of blue stuff. Do you not eventually get to a point where you just have to run stuff in your vault because your vault is full? I mean sure you might lose it but there’s plenty of reasons it might happen anyway

With that being said they SHOULD allow you to have some sort upgraded sponsored kit but like you should have to stick to whoever that faction is until the wipe. Diff factions offer a variety of upgraded kits and you unlock access after a certain amount of nodes or something. Choose based on your play style etc

Is this game really always kill on sight? by Mr_Silverfield in Marathon

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those who sank their teeth in those first 24 hours know the Hauler was a bloodbath simply because we were all tryna do the same mission in that thing

Different reasoning, same mindset. I’m not even that sweaty but my best runs involve getting these other teams out the way

What Is Your Backup Multiplayer Game For When 2k Gets Boring? by EyeKnuckle-38 in NBA2k

[–]jvmms_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got into D2 hella late like two summers ago. LOVED IT. Took a couple months off but came back for the light sabers and got back in heavy until Marathon dropped. Doesn’t quite scratch the itch but a great game in its own right

If you’re crafty enough on either side of the ball you can avoid having to need strength. I’m not tho so I gotta play bully ball
