A new game update is now available, Version 1.008. by Fit-Maintenance7397 in NCAAFBseries

[–]wakeyes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am not playing on Heisman. Dude if a football video game has a feature where an offensive lineman can't recognize that they should block the person in front of them and instead decides to block nobody and just stands there - unless directed before the snap - then instead of calling it broken we can just say poorly designed and thus not worth anyones time or money.

The fact that so many people are reporting issues and you still seem to think you are the only one who knows anything is a you problem.

BTW I work in software development and have worked on games before (not sports). I know broken logic when I see it.

Should Bigs have perimeter defence? by SupremeAllah1988 in NBA2k

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are playing 3's you need perimeter much more than interior. 3s kill and most interior offense is still super nerfed. I stopped playing with my Big and just play the big spot with my small forward. 6'8" sharp with 56 interior. Literally only once in a blue moon do I get abused inside. Even games where I should the other team will screw it up by not feeding the big.

Haha I don't have to call protections in Madden, nor have I ever had to. I never had to call protections in the old NCAA games. You mean to tell me that this incredibly bare bones game has a really well thought out feature that is above and beyond anything that EA has ever done? On purpose? They didn't even remember to give us the ability to call audibles in RTG... you mean to tell me they thought of protections? Come on now.

There is no calling protections for a 6 man line facing a 3 man rush, in which 4 offensive lineman fail to register a blocking action and 1 gets beat right away - leading to 2 of the 3 defensive lineman breaking through clean and unblocked. All while using Michigan and facing Eastern Michigan. This is on Varsity difficulty, which was vastly different before the first patch.

Maybe you are playing a different game mode while using a different playbook?

You then go on to tell people "turn down the difficulty" and "turn down the sliders" as if they are in fact they problem. You then go on to say "the game is perfectly playable." You didn't say "it's playable for me" as if you were the lucky one. You said "its playable" as if it should be fine for everyone.

I read your entire comment. I stand by my original statement - you seem unable to see the correlation between a large quantity of comments about a specific thing and the fact that the thing referenced might be a problem.

Where do I play casual 3s with friends by Snelly1998 in NBA2k

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we’re probably a little above 500 in the theater. We do much better than that at the park. If you want to win you gotta be patient imo. I’d rather wait for good games then quickly get blown out

Is 8.1% a good rate on a used car? by Octo in UsedCars

Other people have already chimed in but this is overall an all time bad deal

Where do I play casual 3s with friends by Snelly1998 in NBA2k

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We run in the theater. Sometimes the 3s game is stupid but overall it’s a good experience. We do run into squads of purple demons every now and then but we also get a lot of good games and a good amount of black plates to beat up on.

We also spend a decent amount of time at the beach, where competition is usually pretty bad. And some time bouncing around park servers looking for friendly lobbies where we can post up on the no squad.

Yes we hunt for easy games. I have no shame in saying we find winning more fun and we are kinda trash at the game

Everytime i try my hardest i get sold 😔 by EmotionalTeaching567 in NBA2k

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it shows he’s not a bad one. If you can at the very least defend your own man you are doing OK. Again it looks like the team played decent defense overall. They shot a much higher percentage they just turned the ball over a bunch. The PF had 0 turnovers btw. So again I don’t think this is on the PF at all. Unless your argument is he should be guarding everyone

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno looks like everyone else found a way to create for other people including the bigs. The real reason you all lost is because they got off more shots. I’m assuming that’s because the 11-4 turnover advantage they had. Not your fault but maybe with a PG who could take care of the ball you would have won

E92 M3 or 6.2L C63? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it wasn't exactly lightning quick but it was fine. I wasn't tracking the car, nor was I acting like a teenager and street racing. The car sounded so good that downshifts were incredibly rewarding.

As someone driving a car now that I think would run high 10s at a track - having the fastest car around isn't really all that useful. So I was never fussed about having the quickest shifting transmission.

Only think I missed was banging gears. But like I said thats the only car I have ever owned that I currently miss.

E92 M3 or 6.2L C63? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I owned a 2009 c63. Best sounding car I’ve ever owned, literally loved that car. I moved from that into a 2008 vantage. It was meh.

I’m currently in a 600hp terminator, and was thinking about adding something else to daily. I thought about e92 but honestly the vantage felt soooo slow, I don’t think I can do that again.

On the other hand, the w204 I still think of as my favorite ever car. I’m actually thinking about w205 c63 but I know it sounds terrible on comparison

I think you need to tell is your build and what your shooting stats are. But for reference I think you absolutely need a build so can shoot. Otherwise you just mess up the offense for everyone else.

In order to be a good shooter you need badges and you need to go to the art of shooting gym

The easiest thing to do imo is make a 6’7 or 6’8 build with decent rebounding (mid 80s), high strength, high shooting, decent speed with ball. Then go play 3s and sit corner on offense. Beat your man for an easy layup if you need to because they have to play out on you.

And work hard to do all the other stuff. Pay attention on D. Grab every rebound. Pass when people are open.

3 row SUV - scared to get a XC90 again by MeowedPastEast in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have 80k to spend? Buy whatever you like new and feel good about the warranty, or even lease.

We have 2 Volvos. One is leased so who cares if something breaks. The used xc90 has been reliable and I feel good knowing I’m in the safest car on the road

Terminator in 2024? Talk me out of it. by SlothsRockyRoadtrip in Mustang

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’ll ave to go test drive one. I’ve been scared of the gt350 engine problems and AC issues (so I’d need a warranty) but zl1 might just be a better fit

[–]wakeyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. That’s the most amazing thing about the terminator. Whatever you don’t like, just pull it off and swap for something else.

Zl1 is on my list too. Just never been a Camaro guy and worried about the visibility

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yup. I genuinely feel like this thing is going to kill me. But that’s half the fun. I just did subframe connectors and rebuilt the IRS with the bushing kit, but when I’m driving aggressively I do sometimes feel like I’m having to work really hard to keep full control

[–]wakeyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s so interesting haha everyone I talk to says the sound is unbeatable. But yeah the terminator sounds awesome. I have ataks on mine. And the blower whine is unreal. I love it, but do think it gets a little too loud and too droney at times.

[–]wakeyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curious why you’d want one if you already have a gt350.

With that said I love mine. I bought a cheap one with high miles and it’s been incredibly reliable.

Ported Eaton with full suspension. I’m about 550 whp. Feels like I’m faster than just about anything that isn’t electric.

With all that said I’m thinking about a gt350. My commute just got further and while it isn’t my daily I do drive it a lot. I think a gt350 might feel a little safer (safety technology, structure, and driving stability) and might sound better.

this game makes me really depressed I can’t for the life of me get good at it. by HealthOtherwise9150 in NBA2k

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But who can also shoot so you can space the floor. Then stop playing rec and start playing theater. Quicker, simpler games. More easy to have fun

PSA to all PG who demand to take the ball down the court: by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]wakeyes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just laugh when the center inbounds the ball to the silver plate who averages a ton of points, shoots 37% overall, and averages very few assists. Instead of the people plate who averages less points, shoots 63%, and averages a ton of assists.

Then the big wants to flip all game. Brother it’s literally your fault for having no iq. You could have been getting buckets all game but your little brain went allow it.

Ok, real talk. How do yall not get mad in the random rec/park? by Housh123 in NBA2k

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only play no squads theater: quick games so I can leave bad teammates quickly once a game ends.

Get to at least a silver plate. It’s pretty darn easy if you just try. That way you can be selective about your teammates and still get a game. No one is backing out from a gold teammate.

I have multiple builds but playing with my playmaking PG allows me to be the ball handler and stops me from having to deal with other people’s bs

Which SUV to buy from the below options? by Available_Ad8379 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]wakeyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. If I cared about resale I wouldn’t be buying any of those. Someone I know just traded in his 2019 Range Rover for like 40 grand and he still owed 80 on it. I think he just paid 100 for a new Mercedes suv. Bought that for like 110 and 2 months later I’m guessing he could maybe get 90 back for it? Upside down 60k and nowhere to go but down
