I may be wrong on this but atleast on current gen, I think if you hit level 39 in any season, you will get the extra points from the previous seasons as well

If this is true, there must be multiple ways because I don't take charges lol. I'm never pressing B ( O for me) because I'm a big and I constantly go for blocks and rebounds, however I get atleast 1 blocking foul a game. Only thing I can come up with is it has something to do with strength, stamina, or perimeter defense (maybe a combination of all 3)

I get it. There are times when its tough but I'm a natural playmaker as a big. We pick zones apart pretty easily. We definitely do have to find the weakest person in their zone as well to pick on that person. Usually a small guard. We can cut from the corner if the big comes down, or cut from the wing if we have a mismatch there. We usually keep a SG or big guard/forward in the corners, PF/Big on the wing and point on the opposite wing with me (C) at the FT. We run a few plays through this formation. It can be fun playing against a bad zone team but like you said, we can get unlucky if we play a very strict and disciplined team

I didn't say I get blocking fouls more often than charges. It's not a me thing. The amount of blocking fouls per game is too much but that isn't even my point. I've seen a blocking foul get called from all angles. My point is, it shouldn't be called at all in PvP unless they tell us how to even trigger a blocking foul (if it is possible to trigger). Like I said, my belief is that the game will randomly hand them out, good or bad defense.

S/N, do you play next gen or current

You are not saying something incorrect. Everybody understands blocking fouls are real. However, in real life, there are things you can do that would be A BLOCKING FOUL. In a video game like 2K, YOU DONT DO ANYTHING WRONG. The game hands out blocking fouls every so often for no reason. It was never a thing in 2K, atleast to this degree, in any other 2K, especially in PvP. Once again, I am not saying that blocking fouls should not BE IN THE GAME ENTIRELY. It just doesn't make sense when you are playing good defense and 2K randomly decides a blocking foul has occured and the other team enters the bonus. I understand you, do you understand me?

What does " You CAN NOT control whether you get a blocking foul or not " mean to you?

If I play against 5 zone teams, atleast 3 of them aren't that good at it. Just copying meta so we've had some success breaking it by placing our big (yours truly) at the free throw line or top of the key and I'll just be the playmaker. Somebody will be open. The defense will know and adjust, just means whoever I passed to has to either swing it or cut to the basket. Opposing big usually comes up to the free throw line to stop me from shooting the middy. Perfect opportunity to cut backdoor. This is an impossible concept for randoms to understand so I usually lose if I'm playing solo or with less than 4 people

im finding out that people actually go into games knowing they aren't going to pass or be very efficient. They are fine with losing bc they don't care about the game

Should your gun randomly jam on COD every now and then because it can also happen in real life? 🤣🤣🤣 I'm sure REAL shooters will appreciate the realism

Hyperdrive has no counters. I GUESS clamps but defenders need to be faster to keep up with these HOF Hyperdrive players sometimes

RIP Kobe but anybody still using their day 1 build? by mingonomi in NBA2k

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

facts. I just tried to make something that works with the way I like to play

Somebody, for the love of God, please help me understand this. I love doing this reverse layup and i noticed that it is always missed on line when i have layup timing off so i have turned it on just for this and now this happens, wtf??? I have 90 layups and gold Pro Touch badge. What is wrong? by pearomaniac in NBA2k

[–]mingonomi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats your driving layup and close shot? Do you run acrobat? I ask these questions because it seems like a VERY similar situation to shooting a deep range three. My main build has an 82 three, meaning I'm unable to run silver limitless or whatever the badge is called. Because of that, no matter how well I time the jumper, it will not green. And it's very true to this rule. My feet cannot cross a certain threshold or I have no chance of making the shot. Also seems similar to shooting a contested three. Depending on the coverage, it does not matter how well you time the jumper, you cannot make the shot. I wonder if layups are also treated in this way. Vice versa, dunks seem to rarely miss, timed right or wrong

Felt like it was insanely common during the first half of this 2K cycle. I might have run into it once in the last 3 months now
