Exactly bro like when I have 99 o board 96 strength and 85 vert with box out position why am I not getting the rebound over a 6'8 running in when I beat their center in position
What they should do is have the colors of casual, pro, baller and mvp be based on HOW you play. Not based upon win loss ratio. There’s a lot of good casual players out there that are way better than someone who has a pro baller or mvp plate. Just my opinion
I stay on brown and silver on builds that I do very well with online. B+ Better grade and struggle to get to gold way more than last year playing solo..
BREAK STARTERS ARE SO BAD THIS YEAR💔💔I SEEN CENTERS WITH 99 PASS LEGEND BREAK STARTER & CANT THROW THE BALL DOWN COURT HORRIBLE CATCHES OUT OF BOUNDS😭😭😭MEANWHILE MY 25 PASS BUILD IS THROWIN BREAK STARTERS RIGHT ON THE MONEY
Same broken mechanics, different year! I wish everyone would stop buying and playing 2k so they would take it seriously to make a better product basketball game. They never will because people are addicted to playing the and won't break the cycle. I can happily say that I haven't played 2k since October 2023!
Bro I have legend break starter an dimer pass act at 98 from my cap breakers an my guy still throwing the ball like I got 70 or 50 pass act like the hell goin on 2k 🤷🏾♂️🪦
I remember maybe 2k19 had a option in the settings where you could turn on or off “keep game close” I believe that it’s embedded in the game now especially in the 3rd quarter.
Try being a post scorer and getting a successful spin off right next to the rim nobody near u u press square to dunk only for him to do 3 outrageous spins out of bounds instead
Yep. And people think you suck but you literally have no control over it. Or if you get a rebound and you get spun out of bounds from letting go of the left trigger
This is the first 2k I've ever played, where the defender can run you down on a wide open fast break and block you from the FRONT. That's how strong the defensive recovery slider is.
Not being able to see fg%, 3pt%, assist avg, and ppg avg of players before entering random rec is what ruined random rec. Now you won't know if you should close app. You end up in there with 4 trash players when that couldve been avoided.
Mann I’m finally about to get my first set of cap breakers that 2xp rep been good to me even tho 2k keeps giving me bum teammates & matching me up against 99 baller/pro / & hof tier players and I just got the game for new years!! I understand tho cause I got to baller status as a 67 overall but damn it’s annoying I can’t even move against them !!
WHY EVERYTIME WE PLAY THIS TRASH 🗑 GAME ITS LIKE TRYING TO BREAKDOWN A MATH PROBLEM? DIFFERENT SHOT TIMING DEPENDING WHAT PART OF THE FLOOR YOU SHOOTING ON THEN YOU HAVE TO FACTOR IN IF YOU'RE OPEN OR NOT AND THAT AFFECTS THE TIMING ALSO 🤬🤬🤬 I DELETED THIS TRASH GAME
One the they should change is getting boxed out when you don’t want to go for the rebound. i witnessed a great example yesterday. My opponent was a heavy cherry picker. Rejecting it all game until one possession after the rock was shot i was on my way to get back on defense, all of sudden i get boxed out by an A.i that wasn’t even guarding me, not allowing me to go reject a cherry pick. Free points for the other team because the game locked me in an animation. Still won but little points like that add up.
@@CashCave03 ive seen that. You in front of them and the walk past you boxing u out. I would assume its latency tho. server wise they were in front but not in ur screen
That dude talking about getting a block then being punished is fr, 7'3s are the biggest culprit of this on offense. You block them or contest their lay and they're there for a free rebound/putback, rewarding stupid play
This is the only game where rb button takes forever to work to bring the icons up smh. Be annoying when im trying to find the person im supposed to guard or try to icon pass
Just a heads up if you can’t pull up the icons for changing you matchup on defense, it’s because someone else on your team is doing the same thing. The game won’t allow multiple people on the same team to have the icons pulled up on defense at the same time
Bro if they would bring back hands up defense in the paint, remove RNG all together, and give us some normal 2k dribbling they would have a good game. But they won't. At this point I think they like to piss us off. Even the casuals hate this game.
When you hold right stick down you can get solid contest only if in position but if you not in position hands up shouldn't have no affect especially if a person good at finishing you shouldn't get a stop just because you standing there
In older 2K’s we always were FOCUSED on either FEET or the BALANCE of the Basketball on our SHOTS now I think it’s just your HANDS Mainly! But now I realize if we need better BLOCKING, SHOOTING, Including JUMP-SHOTS it matters if you’re MEMORIZING your SHOTS with your HANDS/FEET! Either way that’s how we shoot in REAL-LIFE!!🤔!!
Proving Grounds being the ranked mode they promoted going into the release and it still being this unstable is textbook 2K these days. Still getting “a problem has been encountered” messages.
What needs to be fixed is ppl playing a basketball game actually knowing basketball 😂, random rec is hell and shouldn’t even be. three ppl setting a screen at once, no spacing, no help defense, smart cuts. Should start requiring a particular grade in rec
@ it’s crazy, I feel like when I have the ball I’m getting guarded by my team their defenders and mine, then I come off the ball and somebody else get a clean lane to drive or work
Yeah, i play center and I'm the only one that can't set the screen because the SG, SF, and PF are all crowding the PG for screens🤣😂🤣😂, these random guys(some of it) be weird 😂🤣😂🤣
Tired of seeing the ball pop out when I go up for a dunk or layup. Tired of stepping out of bounds going baseline, tired of getting the stunned animation after getting a shot blocked, or when the ball pops out on a bump steal. Can’t recover to get the ball. It’s not realistic at all
My thing with the game is Random Rec…. If I play with HIGH IQ, why can’t I get paired with people of the same style? I agree with dude that said those higher plated players are horrible, not all, but some frfr…. It’s frustrating…. Also why doesn’t anybody actually play defense? Everybody just spams and spams and more spams?
Cause they don’t really care about basketball, they just trynna get a lane steal and hit the break. They should start matchmaking by grade. Higher plates sometimes just means they play with a squad and can get wins or had a center build at one point
Facts!! You can only play this game with zero expectations. Went from an every day grind to a game I play when the weekend hits and all the homies are on
I agree with everything you said. Every year it's the same thing this game starts off. Terrific, and then the developers make it unrealistic. They take the fun factor away. But the one thing that they do consistently every year, let's take more money.When are we going to put our foot down
You’re not the only one. I noticed it too. I’ve a 93 pass on my center. Never had a problem throwing the ball forward till here recently. It always going out in bounds. I’ve break starter at HOF
Templar's take IMO is spot on, I've been saying for years that the dev team doesnt play their own product. If they did they wouldnt have to rely on community feedback as much when developing these updates, and we would get a much better product at launch.
Yeah, my player has an 84 strength and gold immoveable forcer, and people are sliding off my player like he was made out of butter and getting easy baskets. I'm like damn why do they keep sliding off my player its like the game gives me no control over my player
In nba2k25 don’t reach just put your hands up, steals are 30/70 it most likely just gonna go back to the offense and they’re gonna score especially if they down, don’t drive baseline automatic turnover, dont button shoot it’s to inconsistent ( why have visual cue if rng gonna dictate if make the shot), run back on defense because most games comes down to transition points, in previous 2k scoring a 100 point as a team was a regular this year not so much. I would go as far as saying play a different game but unfortunately nba2k is the only basketball game out there. I the less you play this particular 2k the more fun you’ll have
There are two things I’ve noticed right away. I noticed that it was very easy to get the ball stripped not to mention I felt like the shooting was fairly OK. I was actually hitting and greening my shot consistently.
Now why did I just agree with everything you said & said “yeah that happen earlier” to mostly all the vclips you posted in the video I’m constantly saying “this 2k shit ass” when I’m running with the homies 😂😂😂😂
Bro they need to buff perimeter defense and ball handling. Nerfing perimeter D and ball handling make a boring game. Buff both so we can really get jiggy out there.
I know what you mean when you say the defense pulls you it’s more common on bigs I be trying to box out and not give up inside position but the game be turning my center to other players
What I really want to know is what do the devs have against contact dunks. It’s crazy I am taxed so much on vc and attribute requirements to have a high driving dunk but at 6’8 I can get stopped by 5’9 PG with no interior defense! You get thrown out of dunk animations all the time and it really doesn’t seem like a purpose of having a high driving dunk when you can’t consistently contact dunk on someone under the rim. It really makes me feel like I was cheated vs when you see all these 99 3pt players having a field day
They need to do away with the squad and no squad in rec. you squad up with 2 ppl you automatically get an AI and go up against 5. When the 2 other randoms quit out you’re at an even bigger disadvantage in the game.
Idk they just added so many flukey animations and situations, for no reason. No one was thinking "damn we need more animations for ass bumping the wide open pass thrown to me, or the ball rolling around changing possession back and forth, or superman tipped passes making the ball fly all over the court"
The game has zero logic at this point, millions of dollars and they can’t figure out realism. Ain’t no way they feel this is an accurate portrayal of basketball.
Appreciate you highlighting me. Damn this game is frustrating. One day I beat the top undefeated player in my team. Next day I shoot 29% from 3 and lose to a bum. Smh
My biggest problem is dunk frequency & how unathletic dunking feels, 90+ dunk should kinda feel like limitless takeoff Sometimes I come off a fast axx speedboost & think ima boom it do a long lay with full stamina & 93 dunk
They literally just dropped another hot fix… yet it only made it worse… it’s becoming a chore to play this game. One night I’m shooting lights out, the next I’m bricking. My timing is on point… but GOD DAMN this game
7:50 i felt like I was the only one this happens to. Most of the purple plates are straight garbage. I have more competitive games whenever I slip back into gold.
Honestly the teammates getting in the way is the thing that bugs me the. I'll be shoulder to shoulder but it gives you a 5 sec animation eith your players crashing into each other.
Honestly they leave the rep and builder the same and focus on the gameplay it could be a great game. They did a lot right with rep,builds,cap breakers and +1. But somehow broke the gameplay
offensive rebounds are necessary, I play with a 6'8"SG. Playing with randoms, one to two passes then they're shooting.😂 Putbacks is where it's at this year. Plus when you play with a good team, crashing is the difference between W or L.
Have you showcased your build? I’ve given up on 2k but I’m interested in what you’ve created as it appears you get certain animations I often saw get broken
idc how high your steal is if you just run around constantly pressing square/x you shouldn’t be rawarded with a steal only a foul. Reaching 6-7 times in one possession and ending up with a steal is just dumb af
2K is in full control of games outcomes when it matters most. Tight/horrible release 2K don’t give a Damm it’s going in either way algorithms unite we need a lie of a close game to be be sold!!!
The blocks happen to me every game let alone i have a 96+ d-board on my builds and sometimes have smaller players with WAY lower board get them over me so very frustrating
They don’t call any fouls in rec besides reach. Me and my guys be getting fouled on dunk and jumpers, no call at all. I literally get taken out of my dunk animations
Its just crazy how far left they went from 2k24 bro it dont even make sense i played 24 yesterday and everything felt more responsive dribbling shooting even just going from myplayer to the options tab like literally everything in 2k25 is significantly slower and delayed
My problem with the game is if you play with randoms they have no iq or skills if you play with people you never get matched up with people of equal skill level you end up playing teams that should be in pro-am
Another thing i find that’s weird is if im greening middy after middy & using the same mechanic or visual cue to shoot the 3 how in tha hell can i be slightly early/late from 3when the cue is the same for greening the middy? And hot/lethal zones feels like a joke. 2k also is still on that bullshit where it switches your shot for no reason and will still fuck you over because you know the cue to your shot. I honestly see why ppl shoot wit real player % on. Way less of a damn headache
You must not watch basketball or played like the saying good great offense beats out great defense but if watch you see some people can play the best defense on the word and the player still finds a way to score like kobe he used to make shoots over 2 ppl at a time
I was shooting lights out yesterday probably the most consistent I’ve been all year. I have a 70 3pt, I switched to build with 91 3pt same exact jumper same shot visual Q and could not shoot to save my life… I don’t understand 2ks logic
2K would be so much better if I didn’t feel like I got to fight my opponent, sometimes teammates, and the actual game. Whenever I have AI on my team it’s like they are completely useless. Have no sense of concept of where they should be but when an AI is guarding me they have 99 perim d and know exactly what you gone do before you do. Don’t even get me started if AI end up being your center!
Yep, I tried to play alittle bit yesterday but can't shoot for nothing,seems like they modded this whole game and this is current gen,they basically sold us a messed up game,2k26,as you all say in New York,forget about it, people trying to fix a game that is already modded by the creators,that's cold blooded.
I’ve been messaging them about workout warrior perk not working for me since season 2, didn’t even get my rec rep bonus gear and they just been ignoring me, I get a response from them every 4 days, this game is beyond trash, really made us pay full price for an unfinished game. I told them at this point I feel like I’ve been finessed, how do I pay for something and not get what I paid for 😒
There should be defensive animations beyond snatchblocks. How is it that somebody can try to meter dunk me and fail because I played my defense well yet I'm caught in the failed animation, falling on the floor and out of the play for 3 seconds allowing them to get the ball back and get a bucket. It's min risk all reward for the offensive player.
Man, this was like the time when they said they were gonna help with the problem of the hobos out in the United States of America. They never resolved crap. All they did was give it a different level hobo homeless man here you go we’re gonna give it a ring. it’s the same thing with 2K I go through this a lot. It’s just random gameplay sometimes I’m not even in there with randoms. Everyone knows randoms are the worst but sometimes you just be with your squad and you don’t know what you’re gonna get timing be off Right and see crazy stealing that should never happen because he’s in one side. I’m on the other like getting call for a fire and you’re nowhere near it or the defensive three seconds in the paint meanwhile, you’re standing on the wing. It’s just crazy falling down when taking shots that means I’m fine below the whistlefilling your controller, vibrating, and everything.
One more thing….2k need to match make random play based off average grade in order to play with like minded players. It’s easy to tell who’s being carried and hv gold or purple banners bcz the IQ don’t match the banner…imo
Ngl having a boxout and still giving up an offensive rebound is probably the one thing that can aggravate me the most
Man that junk has been so triggering
Exactly bro like when I have 99 o board 96 strength and 85 vert with box out position why am I not getting the rebound over a 6'8 running in when I beat their center in position
True u got all that strength that doesn't exist lol
@hotboymiahtv5035 exactly bro hell I got teammates that have legend challenger still get shot over and the game calls open or weak like tf

Anybody else been getting ripped WAAAAYY too easily
Me bro. I gotta 90 ball handle and get ripped immediately while the opposing team can dribble through me and the screen and not lose the ball😹
yup lmao

@@bizznessminded1743 hahaha dangg
It was bad
It was actually better for me. I was so laggy before I couldn't play. Now I can actually win games, and it doesn't feel like I'm playing underwater.

Is it me or does the break starters feel different? I have a 93 pass on my center and the passes are bobbling on fast breaks.

It does feel like there is a comeback mechanic
Try being a post scorer and getting a successful spin off right next to the rim nobody near u u press square to dunk only for him to do 3 outrageous spins out of bounds instead
😂😂😂 bro it happened to me for a game winner ! I almost broke my tv with my controller!
Nahh we dont feel bad for post scorers gang
@@jalva2634that’s lame “gang”
Yep. And people think you suck but you literally have no control over it. Or if you get a rebound and you get spun out of bounds from letting go of the left trigger
Yeah nobody feels bad for a lame post scorer. Try actually getting good at the game.
This is the first 2k I've ever played, where the defender can run you down on a wide open fast break and block you from the FRONT. That's how strong the defensive recovery slider is.

You can see it .. on the bottom right players shuffle and it shows you the stats
I was running on fast break for put back and then my character just started running like he had 30lb bricks in his shoes.
Ahh yes 2k took notes from gta n added a catch up feature 🤦♂️
latency was crazy bad yesterday
Yeah I could not hit a shot to save my life every release seem to have different timing
Yea thought it was my internet
Thought i was buggin .. my first my player since 17 so I thought i was jus shooting shit
Yoo that second video was hilarious 😭😭😭cause wtf I’ve never in my life seen that animation dude jumped over the whole back board for a layup 😭😭😭

U know you can turn icons on any time when you have the ball and it won't turn off until you choose a receiver or tab r1/rb again.
@ well defense for doesn’t always work for me when I’m trying to find who to guard. Shouldn’t be like that imo

No one was thinking "damn we need more animations for ass bumping the wide open pass thrown to me, or the ball rolling around changing possession back and forth, or superman tipped passes making the ball fly all over the court"
The game has zero logic at this point, millions of dollars and they can’t figure out realism. Ain’t no way they feel this is an accurate portrayal of basketball.
9:23 OOO TURN ME UP HAHA IT’S A ME A CRAZYEYEZ😂
Them 50/50 situations anger me because they give the offensive player a clear advantage to regain possession of the basketball …
Appreciate you highlighting me. Damn this game is frustrating. One day I beat the top undefeated player in my team. Next day I shoot 29% from 3 and lose to a bum. Smh
Im surprised i didnt see no one complaining about the no contest when having a good defensive play
I got a big that I made. It has some speed on it but all of a sudden they’re making my big move like he’s in mud.
My biggest problem is dunk frequency & how unathletic dunking feels, 90+ dunk should kinda feel like limitless takeoff
Sometimes I come off a fast axx speedboost & think ima boom it do a long lay with full stamina & 93 dunk
Thank you. I'm glad somebody FINALLY mentioned all the problems with defense. 🤦🏽♂️
That that is hilarious hell, I thought I was watching some damn Chinese kung fu karate crap going on dunk😂
They literally just dropped another hot fix… yet it only made it worse… it’s becoming a chore to play this game. One night I’m shooting lights out, the next I’m bricking. My timing is on point… but GOD DAMN this game
Yoooooooo.....I'm so glad you bringing this up....I be thinking I'm bugging 😅😅
7:50 i felt like I was the only one this happens to. Most of the purple plates are straight garbage. I have more competitive games whenever I slip back into gold.
Switchin icon been so aggy, i picked dat up season 1. It def helps & turnin off the arrow too but damn bugs is wild this year
😂😂homeboy could have dunked with his feet and still missed😂
Game changes so often that everytime I play it’s drastically different
Yeah being trapped in a 20 minute rec game with a trash ball hog shouldn't be allowed or at least it should be a reportable offence
That random rec clip got me. 😅 That happens all the time.
Honestly the teammates getting in the way is the thing that bugs me the. I'll be shoulder to shoulder but it gives you a 5 sec animation eith your players crashing into each other.
Honestly they leave the rep and builder the same and focus on the gameplay it could be a great game. They did a lot right with rep,builds,cap breakers and +1. But somehow broke the gameplay
The game lay ups for me lol grab a board try to run out or pass out and 2k just lays up the ball time to time it’s weird
offensive rebounds are necessary, I play with a 6'8"SG. Playing with randoms, one to two passes then they're shooting.😂 Putbacks is where it's at this year. Plus when you play with a good team, crashing is the difference between W or L.
I’ve noticed these updates affect us differently
Who else have been wise open at three and when passed the ball it makes you go toward the lane
Have you showcased your build? I’ve given up on 2k but I’m interested in what you’ve created as it appears you get certain animations I often saw get broken
idc how high your steal is if you just run around constantly pressing square/x you shouldn’t be rawarded with a steal only a foul. Reaching 6-7 times in one possession and ending up with a steal is just dumb af
2K is in full control of games outcomes when it matters most. Tight/horrible release 2K don’t give a Damm it’s going in either way algorithms unite we need a lie of a close game to be be sold!!!
The blocks happen to me every game let alone i have a 96+ d-board on my builds and sometimes have smaller players with WAY lower board get them over me so very frustrating
They don’t call any fouls in rec besides reach. Me and my guys be getting fouled on dunk and jumpers, no call at all. I literally get taken out of my dunk animations
they did something to ankle breakers. We all catching ankle breaks damn near every possesion now
Ngl I caught a nasty one yesterday 😂😂😂😂😂
yah i’ve been getting a lot more and only have a 86 ball handle
The latency & the goofiness is real 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Hold up, i worked at a mcdonald's and made sure the food i cooked was good hahaha @4:56
Idgaf about 25 anymore
Its just crazy how far left they went from 2k24 bro it dont even make sense i played 24 yesterday and everything felt more responsive dribbling shooting even just going from myplayer to the options tab like literally everything in 2k25 is significantly slower and delayed
My problem with the game is if you play with randoms they have no iq or skills if you play with people you never get matched up with people of equal skill level you end up playing teams that should be in pro-am
Another thing i find that’s weird is if im greening middy after middy & using the same mechanic or visual cue to shoot the 3 how in tha hell can i be slightly early/late from 3when the cue is the same for greening the middy? And hot/lethal zones feels like a joke. 2k also is still on that bullshit where it switches your shot for no reason and will still fuck you over because you know the cue to your shot. I honestly see why ppl shoot wit real player % on. Way less of a damn headache
Mannn you be hitting the nail on the head every time verbatim 🗣️ #2kWentwayleft
Getting penalized for great defense is literally why I stopped playing
You must not watch basketball or played like the saying good great offense beats out great defense but if watch you see some people can play the best defense on the word and the player still finds a way to score like kobe he used to make shoots over 2 ppl at a time
I was shooting lights out yesterday probably the most consistent I’ve been all year. I have a 70 3pt, I switched to build with 91 3pt same exact jumper same shot visual Q and could not shoot to save my life… I don’t understand 2ks logic
2K would be so much better if I didn’t feel like I got to fight my opponent, sometimes teammates, and the actual game. Whenever I have AI on my team it’s like they are completely useless. Have no sense of concept of where they should be but when an AI is guarding me they have 99 perim d and know exactly what you gone do before you do. Don’t even get me started if AI end up being your center!
Yep, I tried to play alittle bit yesterday but can't shoot for nothing,seems like they modded this whole game and this is current gen,they basically sold us a messed up game,2k26,as you all say in New York,forget about it, people trying to fix a game that is already modded by the creators,that's cold blooded.
They really need to fix the out of bounds force field. It’s worse than ever.
I’ve been messaging them about workout warrior perk not working for me since season 2, didn’t even get my rec rep bonus gear and they just been ignoring me, I get a response from them every 4 days, this game is beyond trash, really made us pay full price for an unfinished game. I told them at this point I feel like I’ve been finessed, how do I pay for something and not get what I paid for 😒
I saw two 0 percent very late free throws goes in while 99 percent misses that shiiiit is wild
There should be defensive animations beyond snatchblocks. How is it that somebody can try to meter dunk me and fail because I played my defense well yet I'm caught in the failed animation, falling on the floor and out of the play for 3 seconds allowing them to get the ball back and get a bucket. It's min risk all reward for the offensive player.
Man, this was like the time when they said they were gonna help with the problem of the hobos out in the United States of America. They never resolved crap. All they did was give it a different level hobo homeless man here you go we’re gonna give it a ring. it’s the same thing with 2K I go through this a lot. It’s just random gameplay sometimes I’m not even in there with randoms. Everyone knows randoms are the worst but sometimes you just be with your squad and you don’t know what you’re gonna get timing be off Right and see crazy stealing that should never happen because he’s in one side. I’m on the other like getting call for a fire and you’re nowhere near it or the defensive three seconds in the paint meanwhile, you’re standing on the wing. It’s just crazy falling down when taking shots that means I’m fine below the whistlefilling your controller, vibrating, and everything.
2k will never fix their game until someone comes out with a realistic game with a realistic physics engine. This Arcadish shit is for the birds.
it’s sad that i have more clips of the bogus stuff that goes on 2k25 than highlights
I see the Calloway hat. What you shooting when you're playing well?
One more thing….2k need to match make random play based off average grade in order to play with like minded players.
It’s easy to tell who’s being carried and hv gold or purple banners bcz the IQ don’t match the banner…imo
Arma Forger has been my go to. 2k ill play a rec game and turn it off.
It is what it is at this point fam. Hopefully 26 a better product💪🏾
