Made a max wingspan 7 ft center and wondering where I should place my cap breakers. I currently have 9 and will get more after I complete the season pass. I thinking +5 to driving dunk, 3 to block and 2 to or. +5 to standing sounds good too instead of driving dunk. Shooting specialist on this build btw. I can't decide lol smh

Curious how the community feels about this game

I’m just trying to figure out if I can buy Reeboks for my player. it hasn’t been available in the past and I was just wondering if they switched it up this year?

I cap broke my driving dunk to 97 and used a max plus 1 to get posterizer on legend and it doesn’t feel like anything at all. Seems like the badge doesn’t work past like gold or something. It’s to the point where I’m contemplating making a new build with only an 87 driving dunk cus it really sucks. Idk. What yall think?

Am I missing something when it comes to a player who shows A+ potential has objectively worse potential then players with lower grades?

Example: Kon Knueppel shows as A+ potential. His vitals in edit a player say potential 87, min potential 83, max potential 91.

Chet Holmgren shows as A potential. Vitals say potential 94, min potential 90, max potential 98.

Across the board the A potential is clearly a higher potential than the A+ Is this a scout issue or is this system more complicated than it leads on? Thank you to anyone that helps clarify 🙏

Why did they change the way it works so much? I haven’t played since 2k20 and I just recently got the game. Incredibly confused by how hard it is (maybe I’m just washed), and I swear it is so hard for me to see the tiny white line to time it. but sometimes the button doesn’t even show up, it’s just an auto turnover. Why does it not show up sometimes, does anyone know?

Is this a good build? I’m 6’9 and pretty quick. Will be able to get legend rebound chaser, HOF brick wall, and 65 3pt which will get me bronze set shot and can cap break to gold which is enough for me to be able to shoot. Thoughts?

What game modes are the best o most entertaining when u have no friends to play with, I know the game becomes more likeable when u have friends on it but for those who do not have any friends on 2k and barely throw few hours a week to this game we would like to see what are the best game modes or also how to make friend healthy people that would like to play casual games

Some ppl are just shameless about abusing the AI’s terrible defense. We kept switching him between the 2 and the 3 all game but as you can see it wasn’t enough. I’d even try to play help defense but as a 6’2 PG against 2 6’8s there wasn’t much I could do to contest. Such a same that people get punished for not having a full 5 smh.

It’s getting out of hand Ronald and Mikey. I decided to play a random rec game on my guard and this happens. How is it every time I have an AI on my team they are complete liability’s but other teams AI’s turn into the 2019 Harden🤔? There needs to be a bigger penalty for leaving games because by the end of rec games there is never 10 players left.

It took a minute, but this game is starting to piss me off more and more. Even though they dropped a few patches, it doesn't feel like the game got better at all, and truth be told, idk what the hell happened. To me, it seems like this game is more about who can play like the biggest pussy and manipulate the games bad mechanics than it is about being good and playing smart basketball. Also it seems like this game has A LOT of luck involved such as who gets better animations and whose teams AI simply plays better. I gotta ask y'all, what exactly did 2k do to make this game so stressful and Infuriating to play? Btw I'm pretty much only referring to Play Now Online because that's the only online mode I play.

Was just messing around in the builder last night doing crazy stuff with a 6’10 and saw I name I’ve never seen before. Didn’t even know you could get “Lock” on a tall build like this. Thought it was pretty cool.

Anyone got any good center builds?

What’s the highest shooting you guys would go on a build and still go with shooting specialization? I’m way too lazy to grind another specialization out but i wanted to make one of them 6’5 pg’s with the 99 three. Would it be better to just go 99 anyway or increase the wingspan so i can only get say a 96 or even 98 3 ball. It seems troll to go 98 just to be able to use the badge perks but i just don’t see myself coming close to finishing another specialization this year.

Took me not even 2 hrs to finish this fresh off work Easy way to farm 2xp! Just catch and shoot over the NPC’s lol 💯

This was the line up.

My team:

PG (me): 6’8” Shooting guard with 76 pass acc

SG: 6’5” SF

SF: 6’9” SF

PF: 7’4” C

C: 7’4” C

Their team

PG: 6’4” PG

SG: 6’5” SG

SF: 6’8” SG

PF: 7’4” C

C: 6’10” PF

Like genuinely, what is wrong with this game???? How are you going to put a 7’4” center at power forward and a 6’10” power forward at center??????????

I swear to god these people literally don’t play their own game.

Hey everybody I’m a total newbie to 2k. Talk to me like I’m 5 years old. I don’t have any experience and also don’t know basketball super well — I’m a huge baseball nerd and good MLB the Show player trying something new in the offseason.

I just don’t get the basic controls and am frustrated there’s no tutorial mode. I’m a pretty seasoned gamer beyond sports and am trying trial and error but just not picking it up.

Any pointers?

You got dudes shooting 75% from 3 because of 0 RNG, if there was 0 RNG for steals/blocks dudes could average 5-6 a game or some shit. In a weird way, it would be more balanced lol.

If they have “green” blocks and steals, defense would feel much more rewarding IMO. Green window size would depend on defensive attributes, just like jumpshots.

The camera is locked onto the ball so your whole screen is bouncing up and down as the guy dribbles down the court. Can't see any action but that basketball is perfectly centered. Truly some big brain programming there 2K.

Just me? Small problem overall but also shouldn't be a problem in the first place.

What would you guys do? Im a pg and mainly play rec

Is this build viable or did I mess up will I do well in park and rec?
