NBA 2K23 (September 9th release)

[kdslittlebro]

you have to play with the builder a little bit. i don't think guards are getting that many badges for upping rebs

That’s my entire point bro. I get the system and how you “finesse” it. I’m saying why are unrelated attributes tied together in the first place? I know the answer is balance, but there has to be a better way.

I was watching Smoove first video he puts his perimeter defense up and it automatically puts points into defensive rebounding, but it’s not enough to even make a positive difference on rebounding if you gotta be that counterintuitive to balance the game, maybe that’s why they’re continuously having to tweak it. But I also never really got into the online myplayer shyt, so I’m biased against the system in general tbf

It's to prevent all the min maxing these dudes do every year to try and cheese online. last year people were making 6'1 pgs with 99 3 ball, 99 ball handling, and 99 steal. They did that so they could take advantage of automatic steal on hall of fame interceptor and be able to left right cheese. You're forced to create a more balanced realistic player now.

Only thing that sucks is they don't wanna separate online play from offline play in mycareer so you could be Lebron James and have 90 attributes and 50 hall of fame badges everywhere in my career games but make you an 85 ovr and have to choose badges for online. That's why player locked myleague has been a big draw for people the last couple years. But people have been starting to be more vocal about this so 2k will probably implement it in like 5 years like how long it took to get rid of them dumb ass pie charts

Yea bro I’m not saying this to dismiss your post but I know all of that exactly. I was there from the first MyPlayer and witnessed the transition to VC, to online play. That shyt makes perfect sense for what their goal is, it just seems like they’re constantly building the bridge while they’re on it

I know they won’t separate online from MC because they would lose out on VC sales. I know I never buy that shyt. I appreciate the grind, I just don’t appreciate grinding to like you said be a true 85 they’re masquerading as a 99. Like damn I’m not asking to be 99s and HOF badges across the board, just let me reflect the best players in the league when my build is maxed out.

I did the player lock thing a few yrs back, but the back end work to actually progress seemed like too much work for me. If I’m doing that kinda work I’d rather just do a full MyNBA/League.

But I think it’ll take a truly bad game, and competition for them to finally feel some heat on that front. Too many ppl enjoy or tolerate the system still for them to truly change it. They’re too big to fail at this point.

Like look at the discourse rn: ppl are literally saying enjoy the game now because they’re gonna patch tf out of it.

2k knows that everybody knows they’re gonna do it, and they’re still gonna do it rinse and repeat

I was watching reviews on this and they are saying this is the same old game with updated rosters.

Thought I was the only one getting fukked up by Ewing.
This might be the first time since the 360 era the CPU made me rage quit.

fukking Perkins and worthy up

Making me happy and mad at the same time

If you’re still on last gen, yes. If you’ve upgraded, absolutely not.

It's not the same game lol.
It's still 2k so it's going to feel familiar. But the game speed is slower and players have weight to them now. It's not super easy to block shots like in 22. Whites don't go in for shyt on HOF. Layups are 10x better especially with the meter on for them. I've only played a scrimmage for like 20 mins so that's all I noticed so far

I can't believe these fools tried to scam on the league pass deal

Nothing but a roster update for last gen, no my era. Michael Williams who was barely a fringe rotation player on the 89 pistons is rated 84 and 3rd best on the team. No Chris Webber apparently. But he is on historic teams. A lot of glaring mistakes on the rosters from what I've seen.

My career looks the same

Beat the Jordan challenges in 2k11, been balling with Jordan every year in my team. I'm good

This my first year since the 12 lockout I don't pick the game up day one. No reason to, I got the new rosters in 2k22. Damn
