I've been working a lot on that Triple Threat Spin. It's super viable even against player opponents. But I haven't been doing it with that nudge left first! Great addition to mix it up. Especially off a pick. Thanks!
This comment section just affirmed so much for me, i have almost no problems scoring on players but these ai tho lol, prolly just cause only other 2k i played was like 16 and only vs bros
Or the fact that AI doesn't guard closely enough against players that are standing still. Often you can just shoot over them; especially after one pump fake. I recorded 1 vid in which opponents scored about 15 times against our AIs like that.
@@FonkedUpProductions that is still in this game too if you have the right jumpshots. There is a spot around the hash where you can catch and shoot over an ai everytime.
beating the CPU is easy some primitive set plays (with a "dive" or "give" in their name, for example), 1-5 pick'n'rolls with the other 3 players spreading the floor (like in the 21 delay freelance), lead passes or whatever the proper name for them, when you hold down the Y button
Once you get team takeover take your point guard make your own myplayer set a screen and fade, drive the ball, both players should go towards you and then kick out to open 3 for yourself
Can you do one for bigs as well? I used to press and hold L1 (LB for xbox) to have the cpu run a play to get me open but It doesn't seem to work consistently this year. More often than not, it literally does nothing and as a big with no ball handle, every player seems to stick right at my hip even if I have a step or two on them because of the wild "glue" animations the cpu seems to get on the player. Its just really hard to grind shooting badges on a big if you dont have squad mates because rec randoms just flat out refuse to believe that there are other builds besides the main ball handler that can actually shoot the ball and every cpu player seems to get amazing close out contests even if their perimeter defense is bad because thats 2k for ya. Thanks and love the content as always.
Personally I've always had good luck running a pick and fade with the CPU ball handler. 9/10 the ai hedges and sticks, and they don't switch it. Just run to the opposite site that the ball handler goes to and that should help get easy catch and shoot threes with a the big. I have a 6'10 glass stretch build and got most my shooting badges with that. Another good one, if you can get space creator Hof and run hopstep threes. Take a step or two towards the basket, as soon as you bump an ai, pull left stick towards the three and tap x once to activate the hopstep. Can be tricky to get all your animations down so you can time it we'll, but I know for a fact it works with bigs
@@garretwomack8696 thanks, I'll definitely try it. Although my big is slow because he's 7'2 but I hope it works because he is a mammoth off ball lol. Finishing and defense badges are super easy to get in my career and playmaking I can get in the Rec from all of the outlets. Its just shooting thats the problem lol
If you’re a big and want shooting badges stand just below the hash on the sideline, call for the ball when they bring it up the court and shoot. Usually the AI won’t even cross the 3pt line.
@@JayyLowe no you just need to get the on court badge. For whatever reason it lets you early on, then when the coaches bench you again, if you aren't a pg, you need the on court coach to call for those plays again. Super annoying
Ai players are extremely annoying to play against in the rec center you cannot get past them no matter how good you are at dribbling and if you get pass them you get chasedown blocked everytime
So I’m trying out dribble packages with a 80 ball handle KD sigs and I’m noticing that my escape combos are different once I make a good play do I need a 85 or 86 ball handle to unlocks these “pro dribble” like moves because I want to keep them it’s hard practicing with moves I don’t have all the time
I'm new and I'm sad I can't get open in my team clutch 5v5 it's hard I don't know what moves to do and how to counter and get open. Not to mention no idea how to run a fade and pick and roll and stuff
Actually the ai needs to be buffed quite a bit. It seems that you are just not good at the game and blaming other things. The ai has been far to stupid and bad for years in just about every way.
@@isiight. the AI seemed to be quite good during the first week(s). After that they seem to have been nerfed. Now they are not only prone to abuse, but also suck at anything else (except for rebounding sometimes).
@@isiight. I was talking about REC and especially about their offense. They seemed to hit a lot more of their open shots and to make a lot more layups, etc. Defensively there are always ways to exploit the AI. I don't know if those exploits were as bad at the start as they are now.
@@mve0172 i only play rec and proam. ai have been highly underpowered and honestly if you face a team that has any sort of clue what they are doing you lose because you have an ai on your team. An ai is a death sentence on defense and on offense. On offense the ais should be programed to always take an open corner and just spot up there and never move on offense and be programmed to hit at least 50% of their open 3s. That is the only way to solve the ai issue on offense. On defense they used to be able to allow you to change your ai defense tendencies but you cannot do that these days. The fixes are honestly really simple. But 2k has been an incompetent franchise for years they just don’t care.
He doesnt show how to set a wing and his buttons are backwards 😂 he just shows the results. He is also showing you MY CAREER MODE and not QUICKPLAY, seeing that you cant pass the ball and control the player who doesnt have the ball.
What’s the point of making this video on rookie AI? HOF Cpu knows to clog the lane when you do the pass to big man trick. You can’t just walk in for the alley oop 🤦♂️
The game is broken. U don’t need to do all that. U can just come up and press turbo toward basket and u can run pass ur cpu almost every time. If u don’t, just back out and do again. Game is so dumb.
so this is funny because i play on all star and last night i was going against the celtics in the second round of the playoffs...down by 6... i kept calling for screen from whoever tatum was guarding... the guy on the on right wing and kept gunning from 3...i thought it was tatum's defense but it turns it out its a thing lol
For finishing badges that’s a good method but there is a better method that works much more consistently and gets you a lob virtually every time. Basically you go to the left or right hash making sure there is only one player in the corner to the left/right of you. Call a pass and screen away to set this and then pass to the person at the top of the 3. Then all you need to do is just press LB once and follow the arrows around the off ball screen to the basket and jam it. This works best against teams with a worse big man but with the right positioning will work on every play. You dont even need to do it at the hash I just found more consistency doing so
Unless you're a pg, I believe that you're not able to call plays like that unless you have the leader badge or whatever unlocked. I didn't unlock it until after I had all my badges
@@garretwomack8696 I'm a pg. And also I've been able to do this since day 1 afaik. It's a default play and you're not changing the playbook like you acquire later on so I think it should be okay
@@VI_Yai_iV you guys are literally saying exactly what I said. If you aren't a pg, you need on court coach to call plays. If you are a pg, it doesn't matter you can call plays from right away. I was saying that unless you are a pg, you need on court coach to call plays
Everytime we play 3s or rec, we get mad when someone on our team leaves. All you have to do is hop back and you're open from the ai. They just cheese the ai for easy points, I've never had a problem scoring on them unless all you try to do is run into them over and over trying to get a layup. Dudes already be dropping 40 pts easy in a rec game if they have an ai and nobody knows how to help the ai
I like watching my AI teammates brick wide open shots all game.
AI defense always on a 99 with HOF everything
I be cooking the ai. it’s the ai generated rookies that are the best defenders. It’s like they’re creating players to try and stop me
I hate playing on the 1v1 court and someone quits, The AI has crazy defense bro
U don’t understand the hate I have for A.I because of this
just got dropped off by an AI I damn near broke my tv
@@rngshizz2587 this is me rn gang I feel your pain🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
They want you to gain as little VC as possible, it's part of 2K greed that y'all keep buying.
Just abuse the hopback. It only becomes tough when you're in the rec and randoms run around you bringing their man to you
Bruh like wtf that shit drives me crazy. My irl homies does the same thing. I be like why do you run around me while I’m dribbling 🤦🏽♂️
Says the guys spamming stepbacks on real players.
