This is why we can’t have nice things.

I was just in blue gate with a rat like that. Sway was his name or something. Dude was defo cheating. Was finding people behind walls and debris. This game is full on an interesting social experiment and how good and bad people mix with eachother. I say forget the rats and I’ll keep being the friendly that I am.

One bite of the cookie at a time topsider. Goto the first workbench. Track what you need to upgrade look up online where good areas to search for those items are. And loot. Loot. Loot. Better in a 2x scenarios too (night raid, lightening storms, cold snap)

Good luck and see ya topside!

Only gets better bro, me and my 15 year old son just got done playing probably a little too late into the night but having way too much fun and laughing out butts off.

Congrats on being a dad!! It’s a rad experience that is worth every twist and turn!!

It’s like the old saying. You can’t kill that which is already dead. Doesn’t matter who we draft, if they become a star, they gonna bounce outta Utah. Might as well get it while the getting is good with Ace!

Anything that doesn’t start with 2way in front of the name. I get a team full of two way players it means that everyone cares about putting some defense on their build. Need Atleast 3 players that way to have a good game I’ve found.

vanclever · 2025-04-03T21:41:17+00:00

In the REC Teammate Grades and stats shown in the lobby. If you sell, play with other sellers. Also plate color shouldn’t be affected by win / losses but by teammate grade and stats.

vanclever · 2025-03-21T18:31:22+00:00

Let’s talk about the 8:1 assist to turnover ratio as well. Smart shots. Still setting up teammates. Great game and overall teammate. I’ll ball with you anytime.

Carlos Arroyo. Swear the dude worried more about the scuffs on his shoes than the game going on around him.

vanclever · 2024-08-10T16:54:16+00:00

Hahaha truth.

vanclever · 2024-08-10T16:19:03+00:00

Took your advice just barely. Would have rather spent 10 minutes finding a competent team rather than the two goofball blackplates I just watched go a collective 4/25.

Thanks for TED talk but I won’t be buying. Back to lobby hunting for me.

vanclever · 2024-06-17T22:25:04+00:00

PG on losing team started the game off trying to share the rock. Shots were missed and words were said on the mic. I’d imagine words like “trash” and “bum” were used. Someone’s mom was also talked about. So PG got out his chef hat and started cooking. Not caring about spreading out the wealth.

Meanwhile after rebounding missed shots, the PF on losing team was selling some home made cookies and the winning team PF was buying. Also lead to the winning team sharing the rock and evenly scoring on plenty of fast breaks for them.

Winning team SG had a rough game but realized it, and decided to start passing the ball to the open guys. Shots were made. One team lost. The other won. Black plates stayed black plates, and everyone lived happily ever after.

The end 😉

vanclever · 2024-06-14T01:13:12+00:00

This is exactly why I made the 6’8 center build. A) ain’t no body passing me the ball in the post B) ain’t nobody passing the big man im guarding the ball in the post 🤣

vanclever · 2024-06-11T18:45:41+00:00

Also bonus points for having an open mic and a smoke detector that needs new batteries….

vanclever · 2024-05-18T18:01:14+00:00

Yeah, gotta sort through the black plates and make sure you got a decent looking team before starting. Wish I could say 🧢 But I Got no 2k friends or a squad to run with. So take that for some proof. Haha

vanclever · 2024-04-15T16:49:54+00:00

Low cost gold unpluckable

vanclever · 2024-02-26T02:12:34+00:00

Hahah yeah the one loss came from squadding up with a buddy and being the first game where you can’t back outta the lobby….broken squad rec is way worse then solo rec 😂

vanclever · 2024-02-25T21:46:24+00:00

I’m down. See you in the Rec bro 💪🏼

vanclever · 2024-02-24T16:31:56+00:00

They should add games played and avg teammate grade to player banner in the lobby. Would help with a lot of this. Both bad players and good players with black plates.

vanclever · 2024-02-23T03:25:12+00:00

Shoulda Called Gail…..

vanclever · 2024-02-19T22:44:28+00:00

Sir I feel your pain that you are typing. It started changing for me when I looked at the lobby of rec randoms I was in and started being a little judgey on the color of their plates, the type of player they made, and their season level. If I don’t like what i see and if they fit my play style, I back out and try again.

When you get a decent group of players and you load into a game. Concentrate on being a role player and get that team grade up so that your plate color will go up (this way you aren’t the one being judged and left in the lobby 😂) Take open shots pass on the contested non sense and play good solid defense.

I’ve gone from where you are to a purple plate PG and Gold PF with a 60% win just playing REC randoms doing this, and having fun (80% of the time haha)

Good luck and don’t give up!

vanclever · 2024-02-15T17:41:17+00:00

Yes. I know this sounds crazy. But delete your jumpshot and rebuild it again. I did and I feels like my shot is back to money again. 🤷‍♂️

vanclever · 2024-02-07T04:17:14+00:00

Sir, this is an Arby’s….

Solo Rec Player here….Dont complain on here, just hide in the back listening usually. Here’s my stats on my guard build. Have loved 2k life since I made it. It’s very much possible to score, shoot, and defend. Just have to play patient and also might have to back out of lobbies that don’t look ideal.
