    I’ve been a 3on3 player almost since it came out. Seeing it deteriorate into such a cesspool of wallets, extremely toxic community, and just awfully broken characters. Honestly I’ve grown tired of it, I got triple S and that was back in like 2021 maybe and that was the pinnacle of my comp scene of it. I’ve never enjoyed the game the same ever since then. Seeing this video really reaffirms my choice in just not really playing the game anymore, from one 3on3 player to another. Thank you

    Used to play this game, dropped a few hundred on it at least too. I think one of the most unsung vices of this game is the fact that in the later years of the game content came out too fast to let new players focus on a certain position to upgrade for pbuffs. I remember when i first played after like a year or so i had my shooting gaurds pretty decked out, and the meta was joey kim, lee/fat bastard(forgor his name) so scoring was still possible. Then jack came out and set my progress back a solid half a year because even the most walleted team couldnt beat a double jack murdock who knows how to switch.

    I started playing 3on3 in June of last year, and I have almost 700 hours on steam. Im f2p, and being f2p has gotten more manageable over the last couple of months. Characters have been made f2p accessible, giving daily gold packs, and the BP becoming f2p friendly. You can still be good at the game, but just accept that you won't have the cracked stats others have unless you get lucky cards. They just recently gave Ayla for 120p, and f2p shamgod is going to be a game changer when I build her.

    It's a shame. I was lucky enough to play this game during the closed beta testing. I've been a huge fan of Freestyle games since 2005, and playing this in 2016 was a blast. I believe I "quit" playing around 2018 or sometime before Jack. The cards used to be based on days, so you could only get buffs on those days (i.e., Monday, Tuesday). It sounds stupid, but it kind of worked out. I recently installed this game but don't recommend it to friends. I only play when I have friends over. That's the only type of fun I get from it.

    Spending immense money on a small Pay2Win game like this is a mental illness similar (sometimes worse) than a gambling addiction. It needs to be studied & talked about more.
    I wish there was more help out there for people like Coolan. I genuinely don't think he should be shamed for any of this. The companies of these games prey on people like him & there are no restrictions in place to help people prone to such behavior from slipping into that hole & ruining their lives.

    It WAS a great game when it first came out. Paying for cosmetics are fine 👍 my big problem rises when a game is dependent solely on paying for items in game to have an edge over others. There’s no “skill” involved. Just horde all the defense resist, 3 point and speed cards you have. And don’t get me started on p buffs… what was a 5 out of 5 game in its inception, turned into a solid 2 out of 5 for me. Concept of a 3 on 3 basketball game is brilliant, joy city had a chance to make something special out of this product.

      Let’s say you’re level 31, congratulations. You’re officially locked out of low tier matches. Only players you’ll play are people who actively throw 💰 at the game. And then they’ll bully you, because there’s no proper build you’d have access to. Teammates scold you because you can’t guard players with double 9cm speed p buffs and plat and/or gold speed/drive speed cards. It’s almost like you must pre determine where the opponent will take their shot. And even if you’re in their LOS (line of sight) they have defense resist capabilities.😅 this all creates the toxic community you’re referring to, especially in discord channels. You’re trash because of this: 💰 not this: 🧠

    Honestly... to me (at least) 3on3 feels kinda like a gacha game. That's how most gacha games be they just come out with new stuff all the time to drain your money. 😅
    Although it's true that they incentives you to spend money like crazy but.. which game in 2024 that's popular doesn't? Paying 90$ to have the full version of the game and from there starting to build up it's pretty much like buying a game full price online or at the store. I know that they have low-tier and high tier type of queue matchmaking but... they should impliment some type of medium tier so people that just started don't get destroyed by comp players because truthfully... it's not fun for both parties involved.
    I could rant the whole day about many problem that this game have but... It's pointless to be honest. The many unfixed bug + the communication/feedback response between the devs and the community is very low which sorta kills the game since we feel like our voices don't matter to them :/

      The voices don't matter, the money does. The community could complain all it wants, but as long as people are still spending money on it, they have no incentive to change things. Sadly with the way even 2K is, the entire basketball video game genre is just putting together a game that barely works and then making it pay to win. Same thing for all of the big sports games really.

    I would love a competettive mode without any extra ability BS or upgrades. Have an equal gamemode. Let skill win, not silly gimmicks, OP abilities or random luck. Also award less selfish players more. Sometimes the MVP in the matches are total BS. I don't mind the game, it has elements that reminds me of NBA JAM. Unfortunately lot of players are selfish and greedy (one of the reasons why I play 1v 1 more than 3 v 3). My win rate in 3 vs 3 is only 50 ish %. However in 1 v 1 I have 89%, and the reason is simple, I pass the ball and create space, the way you are supposed to play the game.
    The community has a lot of narcissists that wants MVP in every match, so you won't see a lot of passing. Just kids spamming the dribble button, and shooting (even if you have 3 players on you). Shame, cause it takes away the aspect of teamwork in a team sport, and it makes it impossible to play when you end up facing an experienced crew that plays properly. I'm glad i haven't spend a single penny on upgrades or characters. Grinding from scratch made the platinum trophy a lot more challenging, but also more fun and cheaper to play.

    as crazy as this sounds i started the game 2 weeks ago and i did p6 on ox queen because she seemed dope.
    I totally agree with everything you said lol. However, coming from fifa ultimate team this really doesn't even seem that bad. Atleast you know what you're paying for and its not loot box gambling mechanics. also it isnt a new game every year like fifa, and i can keep the same account for a while ideally. I don't really care to be the best player i just get really stoned and try to cross mfs up. ur right tho jack and genesa fuck me up. However, I hear ya that u like the competitiveness at ss+ , this game seems more goofy to me than competitive but for casual ppl like me who dont mind spending a lil this game is perfect.
