You can also add VC not being refundable if you want to tweak your build
MyTeam being a cash cow and pay to win mode (can’t enjoy it without money)
Ridiculous grinding time to max your player from 60-99 overall
NDA contracts restricting what people say and make
@ facts
Dam my guy pulled up the list LIST 😂😂😂
You just need to stop buying 2k bro 😂
They took the pull the chair animations out the game, but then gave post scorers moves that they previously only had access to when they got takeover. Literally throwing you.
I dont get the hate in post scorers like just dont play 1's bro
@@KinGaw1 well first off I shouldn’t be prevented from playing an entire game mode because of a broken mechanic. That in itself proves it’s broken, and also it’s not just done it 1v1s. It’s done in 2s as well, and people even do it on 3s running an ISO post scorer with 2 on the wings or in corners. Even pure lockdowns and bigs still getting thrown on the ground is a broken mechanic. It should be fixed, end of story. If they had takeover or did it more rarely ok, but every play???
@@KinGaw1you got some nerve
@@kunosho1315 i mean is kinda obvious that there are going to be Paint mashers in a 1v1
@@kunosho1315 god damn thank god i only play 5v5 if people are doing those weird shenanigans with post scorers i feel like in a 5v5 since is real basketball they are useless
the NBA needs to take the licensing away from 2K and give it to a company that can develop an actual game that the people want
word
I think they just need to have an open license that allows multiple developers to use their product. Have multiple companies pay for the licensing
@@briangutierrez3160 literally any other option than what’s going on right now would be positive
all fun and games until you compare what EA does with their games. 2k is bad compared to other 2ks, but miles ahead of every other sports title. careful what you wish for
@ i’m not saying ea should make it but someone else
I’ll never understand how the game is supposed to be “realistic” but the ankle breaker animations have people hitting entire yoga workouts mid game.
Quit 2k last year after playing for 11 years. I miss it but seeing videos like this makes me feel better
I couldnt even buy last year
This game is a waste of money don’t buy it the graphics is a downgrade they changed the shooting and it sucks I miss wide open shots with sliders all the way up also they added this weird motion blur that zooms in on you after you make a shot I deleted it and downloaded back 23
I quit as well. No reason to drop 300 on a game I know I'm not going to enjoy
As soon as you reach the main manu, you almost trapped into buying the season pass
I'm telling you. I done almost bought it 13 times on accident.
man bro, i already bought it in season 2 n they still kept tryna make me buy it again 😭😭😭greedy ahh
i stay going in that menu its like they tryna force u to buy stuff
Damn menu pops up 100 times and they make it freeze ya damn game tryna close out of if
I bought it twice on accident man
I don’t understand how anyone with eyes can watch these clips and still blame the community for why 2K is bad. 2k has been bad for 8 years!
And everyone keeps buyin
💯‼️
2k19 was the last good 2k 2k20 wasn’t bad. But that’s when all the problems started.
I enjoyed 19 and 21
19,21,22 were fire. 23 started the stiff movement and downhill from there
I’ll say it again so everyone stops being confused. 2k basketball is a MONEY GENERATOR. Not a video game. The game doesn’t have a physics engine and they are NOT trying to achieve any type of realism it has an animation based algorithm designed to keep you addicted and frustrated through engineered loses and wins. The algorithm controls EVERYTHING in the game not you. It controls who youre matched up against, which direction the ball goes, what level of teammates you get AND which type of play style they use in order to set you up for success or failure. They control your jumpshot timing,green window size , recovery speed, contest strength, EVERYTHING. Your attributes and badges are just a distraction to give you the illusion of control so you keep blaming yourself instead of the game. This is exactly why you get PUNISHED for doing the only thing that is within your control (Quitting). They want you to experience all the frustration and pain they set you up for so that you keep spending money on builds and boosts over and over. Mike Wang and Ronnie are nothing but fall men they have 0 power or say so. They even hinder your freedom of speech if you are one of their paid celebrity or influencer pawns that’s why they call them (influencers) and recently rebranded it as (game-makers) to make it easier to blame anyone but them including yourself. For another year in a row you can enjoy buying the game 23 times in an attempt to rebuild your ego from the lashing they intentionally give it everyday for playing this garbage. You aren’t playing the game the game is playing your ego. 99% of the time you aren’t even having fun, you’re just seeking that next dopamine release from a scripted win against opponents who had no chance of beating you. IT IS A SCAM.
Idk bro I’m 24-3 in random rec this season 😭 I just back out if everyone not atleast gold played
But this 2k is terrible fs, I definitely feel capped but I’m still winning most games
PREACH PREACH PREACH MY 🥷, Im new to 2k in general. since 23 and can you belive what ive expierenced in my few years?
absoulute dogshit
but i try finding ways to play but i cant, idk why, i have a 2k 19 disc my cousin gave me so im playing that atp
the fact that 2k can make a new player within just a few years get bored of it is insane. and thats coming from me bro
idk but its not 3d but i recommended yall play this 2d retro game called hoopland, its 🔥, it got a play now mode, season mode, and now beta carrer mode with full version coming early 2025
he said he might add console port and MULTIPLAYER in the future so
Detailed💯

When Moses went to receive the 10 commandments from God on Mt. Sinai he said he'd be up for for 40 days and 40 nights in order to learn with God so he could teach the rest of the Jews. The Jews miscalculated the time and thought something happened to Moses and thought they were stranded in a desert and would die, so some of the people started worshipping the golden calf. When Moses came down, he saw this and was furious and broke God's tablet. God wasn't too pleased either. Moses went back up Mt. Sinai, God taught him his word and then Moses came back down. Three million Jews, plus others stood there and heard and saw God give his first two commandments. The experience was so overwhelming the people's souls flew out of their bodies and collapsed to the ground, gasping for air. They begged Moses to tell God to stop and Moses told them the rest. Do you think you can fool three million people who were all eye witnesses to this? This was a national revelation. Something God said has never happened before and something no other religion can claim. We also have Jesus Christ coming down from heaven, putting on flesh and being crucified for our sins. Yet another challenge set out to all the other false god's that has yet to be countered and rivaled until this day. The Jews have been accused of many things but being stupid is not one of them.

This criticism is needed from all content creators. It’s been too many years of many CCs ignoring obvious issues and just putting out “positive content” enabling 2K to continue their crappy practices.
I played every single 2K ever. NBA 2K25 WILL be my last, I'm done with them.
I played every game in creation and I'm done with gaming after 2k25.
@@JANclipz yea also im done with 2k im serious this time
same
so you think 2k18 or 23 better you prob made a short ass guard and can’t shoot or dribble and jus hating to hate
old gen 25 is lit
Mind you these are NBA players playing at the highest level missing wide open layups, throwing the ball of the side of the back board, and just dropping the ball
Not just nba players but 99 ovr. Basically a bunch of lebrons and MJ that can’t make open layups.
frustrating but I can't lie these dudes in the NBA sometimes do this not often but it happens
@@imslowerthanlight.1739not necessarily. If you ever say one of your teammates lag out before a game you see there overall is an 85. We upgrade to a 99 but really are 85 overalls
Playoff P performance every game
@@dotumph It happens in the NBA sometimes. On 2k it happens multiple times a game for multiple different people. A lot of these animations and bs that happens are things that I haven't done since elementary or middle school. Doesn't make sense how NBA players are this bad at playing basketball.
29:40 .. you said it best… I gravitated towards 2K heavy because it ALWAYS felt like if you lost, you genuinely lost to someone who was better than you at the game, wether they were cheesing or not… this year i can’t even tell who’s ass and who isn’t … and it just makes the experience infuriating..
This the one fr i felt this comment to my core
On point , you either get okay teammates or complete ass I miss 24!!
Bro like i have zero idea who is actually good at the game ..like i havent played one game where i said to myself this dude is nasty w it. Just one team cant miss while the other team cant make anything. Then next game you cant miss..Just depends on whos team your on. 24 i played again dudes who were legit cracked unguardable and i was impressed.. I haven't been impressed by ANYBODY yet...
Bro, seriously my 99 overall with 95 ( 3 pointer + boosts) has never been this inconsistent. Either Very Early, Slightly Late, Slightly Early. I even built a 99 three point shooter, still inconsistent. Trash 🗑
Nah fr, I had 92 3 pointer on 23 and 24 it was smooth as hell but now can't time for nothing
Skill issue, ur 🗑
@migc2233skill ish
There hasnt been a good 2K ever since 2k22 old gen.
Every year changes are made to intentionally lower the skill gap, and its really starting to add up.
You mean next gen 2k22. Until the community complained about steals and they let those left right maniacs out that thought they were nice. 😂
Preach! Last one I enjoyed as well
@@marcusjohnson7321 Nope. I do mean old gen 2k22.
"Until the community complained about steals and they let those left right maniacs out that thought they were nice. 😂"
This makes you sound like a bot. Complaining about steals makes sense, because upgrading your steal and spamming the steal button is *literally* a no skill thing to do.
When it comes to 'left right maniacs', 95% of playshots were not good at being a playshot. Having good chem with the big you were playing with and blitzing them was it all took for me to win a vast majority of games. Even when I was doing the xp coin glitch throwing games I still maintained an 85 w%, would've been really close to 90 if I never went for those coins.
There were really good playshots on 2k22, but it really was only about 5% of them. I could completely understand getting annoyed at cheese once every 10-20 games, but if it's more often than that then it wasn't the cheese holding you back.
Didn’t mention L2 cheesing is prolly the most used play style in the game rn where guards with 99 speed don’t even dribble just dex back and forth until they get you stuck and shoot 😂 so lame
Crazy thing is 2k does the dexing for you in 17 and 19 you had to do it yourself 😂 hand holding ass game
The comp play style is so dog 💩, it’s embarrassing for the guys who play.
The 2s in any game mode is damn near impossible to play in because of this cheese. All the top reps in the game us it. Do not go theater 2s if you are a purple plate. Just sad game play in general.
Guard will have 99 three ball rating and a high playmaking but they refuse to dribble the ball because they can just L2 cheese the whole time
@@clintoncollins7441I think it’s Ronnie alt acc or he just dr

Were they perfect or were they literally perfect?

-Top 2 soundtrack
-Still decently upheld graphics
-The separation between good and great players is apparent
- THE BEST intro to a sports game ever
-Vic
-You could play college ball
- great roster
Give 2k16 its servers back
2K17*
Can’t back out of REC losses and also not being able to back out of the pre-game lobby in theater or rec forcing you to play with bad players.
There’s a great reason you never see any devs or community managers interact with the community, everyone’s likely ashamed at the product that no one collectively has any power to fix
Or the community doesn’t like them like what other game is the community manager is hated as much as Ronnie everything his fault
🎯
Another season with no new animations for 6’6 guards💔
so i made a 6'2
@ y’all got good shi
Unrealistic
The Vince Carter animations are for 6'5-6'10 builds. Tf u mean? Lol
@ bru that one step back and dunk package, we want a variety of new dribble moves and a lot of efficient ones I’m still waiting on these new 9000 animations gang
The clothing in 2K is beyond trash it is too expensive and most of all. You will never want to wear it.
In my career the NPC still don't know how to react to a screen they will see me give them a screen and then call for another player to get them a screen this was a problem in the last game. I used to love playing my career but now it is extremely boring.
The game even tells you the more you dribble the less likely you are to make a shot. Its ridiculous
Game is so unrealistic and rng heavy. Some people get on the game to just have fun and battle it out but with this game, you can feel when they want you to lose. It used to be rewarding in old 2ks even when you lost, you know it was cause the other team is better. In this game, you lose sometimes cause the game was favoring the other team
The ball hitting under rim on layups is wild 😂😂😂
I could’ve showed like 20 of them from my 5’9 all wide open🤣
9000 new animations by the way 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I thought I was da only one 🤣
@@BADGEPLUGBRO YOU 5’9😂😂😂😂 stop tryna make 99 everything Demi god builds and play the game correctly!
Hell yea bro cause I have one 5'9 build I should miss wide open layups. Nice brain gang.
Dribbling became so boring. There were times you could watch Gman or steezo and you were impressed by that. Now you see the same moves over and over again.
Facts
Someone with a brain. 2k19 and 22 are the only good dribbling 2ks since the old days, 24 had some interesting mechanics like L2/Hesi canceling to be fair. 25 is a disgusting when it comes to dribbling and movement in general
Bro dribbling is so ass this year makes me want to give up on playing guard
Frll you can se what they were tryna do with the dribbling but bro I know there tryna make it realistic but it looks like shit and u feel stiff they should just bring back 2k15 dribble moves
I swear I was a dribble god on 22 old gen 😂😂
the contest system genuinely give me depression 😂😂
Bruh ain't no way I got 99 block and getting dunked on😂
One of the worst parts of the game is not being able to equipped badges to the elevators, USELESS 🗣️
Badge you are funny man. 3 months ago you were hyping this game up so hard lmao
This game is very unrealistic with the amount of bs you see happening
16:15 was preaching. It’s some days I hop on and I feel like I have control. The next day I’m thinking is my internet is tripping because the game feels weird.
At least 18 was playable, I’ve never deleted a 2k before the next one came out until 25. Only reason I redownloaded was to play offline league cause online anything is trash
I learned rhythm shooting just for them to change it. You got 99 3pt shooters throwing up anything because you can't get a proper contest. You got 99 reb people literally jumping over everybody even while being boxed out or shoving other high strength high reb builds out of the way like they're little kids. I'm now running into guards with all post scoring builds in the 1v1s just so they can post cheese guards. Never mind the 7ft oversized post scorers anytime you play with a PF or C. 2K sucks and all the community wants to do is abuse the game and make the experience worse for everyone else. Yall make this game unplayable.
I loved 2k25 up until November. They absolutely ruined defense by nerfing the steals. Arguably this year defense can be just as fun if not more fun than playing offense. Now defense is simply not fun to play when you don't get rewarded for making good plays.
2K18 is the worst 2k ever made. but this one is up there with it fasho.
So I’m not the only one who thought this and I’m starting to think 2k24 was better than 25
@ na u spot on bro 24 was hands down better
@@K_D_Ait is
💯💯. 25 I still enjoy if the homies are on. But 18 was by far the worst 2k. I played 2k religiously every year since 2k9 and 18 was the only one I ever skipped.
2k18 is awful and that's a fact no lies told 💯
This video could go viral and the people that work on this game still won’t fix it 😂😂 they should just open up all 2k servers again from 13-22 and let players choose their favorite online mode but nah they too money hungry.. this shit is unbelievable and a huge slap in the face to all us OGs that been playing this game since we were jits
Broo thats what im saying like maybe like a limited time every month let people play the game they spent so much money on these ngs are fucked when gta 6 comes out i js wanna use my $200 2k19 myteam lineup but these ngs only care abt profits AND STILL give us surveys on how we feel abt the game😭
Crazy thing is they’ll prolly make more. Just don’t want to pay people to monitor all the servers
It's the music and brand names that they don't want to pay for 2k only pay for like 2 years to use licensing on the music and clothes/accessories and even player likenesses and names they don't want to pay to re-up those licenses so they just close the servers instead
Like Blake Griffin for instance dude been in every 2k since 2k12 or 13 but he didn't want his likeness used with 2k25 so we won't get him as a myteam card or on historic rosters if they open the servers they'd have to pay him for each individual 2k that his likeness is in or strike a deal with the retired players association to use those player likenesses across all the past games versus each individual one
Ive been preaching to open the servers up everytime❗️ how come all call of duty games still running but 2k closes servers smhh 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Thank you for bringing awareness on this awful game. Honestly I used to love playing 2k until 2k24 I absolutely hated it but thought it’s ok it won’t get worst than this. Then boom 2k25 drops… the worst 2k I ever played. They need to get rid of all this realism bullshit. I’m tryna hop on a game and have fun with Arcady dribbling and movement. If I want to play real basketball I’ll go outside and hoop
For you being a top 5 influencer and coming out and making this video screams so much respect fr. I appreciate you and the brutal honesty of this broken game. I really hope they fix these issues and stop being so money hungry. It's truly sad fr
Nah he's really preaching, I fell out with my pro am squad over season 2 secret updates 😂 we were 100-17 on some we understand it now ish. Haven't squadded up since early November and I miss them boys
Easily .. the worst 2k ever and it’s not close.
I think wut makes this the worst 2k…. Is the potential. If they just made it a lil more responsive, and HEAVILY nerf the RNG, this game could be dope. I’m so sick of 2K dropping unfinished products just for us to spend like $150 first day. Then they try to fix an already broken game and just mess everything else up 🤦🏽♂️
nah tbh they dont wanna put in effort, the more the effort, listening to community and better offlien gameplay istg the game will get more money, and lower vc grinding, other than that the nba has to not re-deal with 2k. and let other companies and solo devs compete
Bro i swear yesterday i was playing and i just felt my stomach hurting like i could sense the bs that something was completely off with the game. Steals are bs, rebounds are random, rhythm shooting dont work no more, dunks are trash. I put that shi down yesterday
Fr I had rhythm shooting down…now I can’t hit for shit

The one thing i have the most problem with is matchmaking. I’m a starter 4 with a gold plate, and i get matched with mostly rookies and starter ones with brown plates. And it takes so long to find games in the rec. very annoying
Ok I’m glad we can talk about this. Sports titles for whatever reason have added rubber banding to the game (Mario kart coding). I noticed it a while back in madden but it started in 2k23 and only got stronger since. Remember in 2k23 if you weren’t spreading the ball around or if everyone wasn’t involved on offense you’d start shooting worse. They’ve just been testing out rubber banding in different ways and hoping we wouldn’t notice
It’s always been a thing imo, since 2k13 I can remember “third quarter comebacks” being a thing.
Whenever you’d be killing your opponent your team would forget how to play ball in the third quarter, and the other team would be lights out.😂
Bro posted as soon as I got my food. You're a goat fr Badge 🐐
The game is shit and we keep buying it😭but I haven’t bought 2k since 22 game sharing is OD😭
🤫 🤐
I’m just gonna list a few things
1. Very late , very early glitch
2. 2k purposely keeps people in the game , you can do everything right and 2k still make you lose
3. Spamfense , people spam with no adrenaline and still get the steal , time after time after time
4. Dunk meter? Trash , save your contact dunks and VC
5. Contest system is the worst and I know it was gonna be when they took out the percentages to justify their BS
6. People will still say we’re complaining even with proof
7. RNG
8. SBMM nobody wants to sweat EVERY SINGLE GAME , I don’t mind playing comp, but I gotta deal with 99 perimeter, 99 steal , 93 strength , every game while people spamming all game long (im a guard)
I can go on and on? Game is trash 😭🤦🏽♂️ and I have an 80+ win percentage in all modes , proving grounds , rec, park, etc.
2:25 😂😂 what's wrong with the cool kids club?! Lol
Another issue you can have 99 driving dunk with 92 strength and the game will still change your dunk animation to a layup.. the game forces you to put the dunk takeover even if you have 99 driving dunk
Problem is too much RNG, catered towards casuals, not consistent gameplay, etc, etc lol
Bro this game ain't made for casuals at all.
Badgeplug idk if you get this a lot but you are probably the only youtuber that actually speaks facts and speaks out for people like us. I have a 90% win percentage but that doesn’t mean i dont think this game is bad. People like to say people who win wont complain but i think 2k24 is miles better than this game and its sucks to say cuz even though 2k is money hungry they did a great joh with capbreakers and rewards on reps. even events are good if delay wasnt a problem at times. 2k really just kill themselves having an ego
Explosive launches? Lol that one still gets me 😂
Precise stops killed me
@@moreplugsstill have to wait 7 business days to get a good stop
this is definitely 2nd or 3rd worst 2k ever made after 2k18. 2k25 is literally catered to casual players and people who don't have the i.q. to compete against good players. mike wang has literally killed this game by playing god with rng from the shooting to dunks and layups. this is the only 2k where you will literally miss consistent wide open shots just because mike wang wants to keep you at a certain percentage, no matter the circumstance, and it makes no sense😩. 2ks greed with micostransactions and pay to win have been absurd now for 4 years straight, and is getting worse year by year on top of that. the fact we still need to buy boost and gatorade just to compete should be illegal. I'm not even going to get into prices of clothes/equipment on 2k25 because it's ridiculous 😩. 2k is losing more and more players every year due to these issues ,but it shows they don't care as long as they hit a certain number for sales, and its killing the integrity and fun of this franchise. 2k needs competition asap because every year its getting worse. tbh this franchise needs a completely new engine, built ground up from scratch so we can get a truly fresh experience with gameplay and graphics, because every year feels/looks the same outside of small mechanics that are added and changed. but unfortunately they won't do this because it will negate the past gen consoles due to the tech. 2k is still heading down the wrong path and I'm not sure if I'm buying anymore 2ks in the future.
its been 2 seasons and about 3 or so months and if you take the subway you will spike and be delayed, which is funny because you get spawned into the subway so theres no way around it even closing app doesnt work shits terrible the fact they cant fix this small issue
Ever since I made my 6’10 96 driving dunk with high middy I’m actually having fun playing but what I notice playing starting 5 alot of these people just truly suck & get carried by Ai. I don’t allow 3s to stress me out bc I’m not thirsty to just shoot I find ways to win games
i made a 6'10 with 96 i wish it was possible to make a 6'10 or 7'0er with 99 driving dunk in this game but you cant i have about 8 90* ovr builds but all of them execpt the 99 offnsive rebound build is bad
@@bokc_ellismANNNNNN 😂😂😂 They want the bigs 7’0 and up play like the un-athletic Euro leagues

99 Block is insanely broken… And not in a good way. I have a 6’9 Sf with 85 Interior, 91 Perimeter, 99 Block…. I dont have the best or the most elite defense but im not a scrub and I know how to play stick defense with my build. But it’s so cringe that when im playing great/ good defense and im in front of the ball handler the ENTIRE possession and as soon as he decides to rim rum ( STRAIGHT INTO MY BODY ) and I get a what looks like a flagrant foul in park 🙃😐! HOF Pain Patroller and Legend High Flying Denier, and I get more flagrant fouls than I see in the actual NBA 🫠
You need immovable enforcer at least on gold
@@8ballP boy ts dont mean nothing, 2k just broke asf! Im not going against many 6’1-6’8 in the 1v1 court with strength let alone higher finishing than my defense. And ik my build doesnt have the best offense either but its no way the same builds with barely amy perimeter or interior & no strength can box my build & cook it! This might be my worst 2k year kuz of this “ RNG “ shit
Edit: and I got a 6’4 Pg with a 93 strength and 88 perimeter / 64 interior with immovable forcer on gold, and people still get easy blow byes
@@InspiredByYumi so both of your builds get silver pdef badges MAX and only one has strenght, and you got the nerve to complain about someone blowing by you? we serious rn?
@@chingo6609 Dude you just assumed 1 of my builds doesn’t have strength, and my 6’9 has a 71 strength that’s more than enough, to play great/ good defense. Especially when every single person on this game doesn’t make a build with strength or a high strength. And can you not fully read, the build im complaining about getting blown by has 91 permiter, 85 interior, 85 vert, 99 block 😐
@@InspiredByYumiI've a lock with legend immovable and 5'9 pgs left stick run straight Through my body and get open to rim run... Game is just a shit show
Am I the only one constantly getting the very early very late glitch constantly
Oh so I’m not tripping

No bro ts is mad annoying I be having to restart my app cuz I knew I wasn’t trippin
yes i get a very early glitch when i shoot and ik its cuz of rng
bro every time i try to shoot it’ll say very late even tho my shot motion didnt even start
HOT TAKE: Pushing 2k more towards realism will kill the franchise. Listening to sim nation will kill the franchise. 2k listening to old heads and other people ask for a more realistic game when the game was at its best when it was arcadey. 15, 16, 17, 19. Anyone can agree that those were some of the most fun 2ks to watch and be around but now we got this. And i get wanting a more realistic game but guess what? We had one! NBA Live. AND TS DIED CUS NO ONE PLAYED IT. Just saying bring back arcadey game play, fuck this realistic dribbling and the rest of 25
Not a hot take that’s straight facts I don’t know why people want a video game to be realistic go fuckin play basketball in real life it’s sad I’ll never have fun like I did in 17
1:30 ya but bad latency negates all the timing direction changes… I wish we had old movement back bro these stiff 2ks fall off too quick!!!
as a casual player i can agree this is the worst 2k i’ve ever played too many lil bugs, steals are overpowered no matter what patch they make and contest doesn’t even exist only time you can have fun is if you have a squad, i went from gold plate to casual within a week just from playing random rec mind you i dont quit my games… the game is just overall not enjoyable tbh
a lot of stupidity goes on in this game as you can see in the video but comparing 24 to 25 is comparing trash vs garbage.
24 was still better this game is dogshit
23 was lit I wish everyone didn’t complain about demigods now no one can’t do shit but be at the mercy if RNG but this is what the community forced.
@@ZEROCHILLDUNKGODdo it all builds like 14-16 were better
@@ZEROCHILLDUNKGODNah people literally only had 6’9 guards on 2k23 that game was one dimensional
Hopped back on 24 and I actually had a smile on my face. Thts how u know 25 some poop
Worst 2ks of all time
1. 2k18
2. 2k25
3. ? Up for grabs but the top two are set in stone
100 percent. 2k25 is objectively top 3 worst of all time and arguably the worst, I’d have 21 in there as well, but 25 is easily the worst 2k since 18
2k18 was way better than this dogshit imo
@@damedashn213918 gameplay was so much better than this was just a dead game
I loved 2k18 lmao
21 both gens are worst than 25. Old gen you could only win if you played on one of three builds, play shot post scorer or 6’8 inside. And next gen EVERYONE has the same exact 6’9 build that could do everything plus the city was miles long
never thought people would hate 2k25 more than 21 😭
Rhythm is the dumbest every time a controller has stick drift you can’t even try to shoot with square
Its Clear This Czar Guy is the problem that goof obviously think the game is fine and its
Just a skill problem 😂😂😂 this the only game were u can adapt to the bs and you still haven’t seen the worse
ong 2k18 better than this atleast i had fun on there this is just some bs
Stopped playing when I got my cap breakers end of szn 1…. Not playing 2k again till they fix paint d/ shot contests… game feels horrible!
It's simple stop buying 2k until they fix it
You’re going against another team, your own teammates, AND THE GAMES INCONSISTENCIES!?
I could play the game if there wasn’t randoms cursing me out and selling the whole game cause I got ONE of these trash animations. So many have no idea that it’s the game.
The last time I played. (I have a 97 pass!!) I seen the double coming full court I passed it to the open man and it went out of bounds off his hands. Now they’re cursing me out.
I’m liking the game actually. 70% of the time it’s the low IQ teammates that ruin the game for me and the VC amount to make a build is bogus. It should be 200k to max out a build
125k or 150k
@@omega2themax ong because you still gotta buy Gatorade, boost, tattoos and clothes so 200k ($50) maxing out the build would still not be fair
🚨🚨THIS VIDEO IS MORE IMPORTANT NOW THAN EVER💯‼️
We need you to make a video next.
I just went back to 2k24 yesterday and i must tell you, it was the best decision ever. I went on there and don’t miss 🤣 100% 7 games straight
Same. It’s not even just shooting, everything about 24 is just better from a gameplay standpoint. I almost never go back to the previous 2k, and 24 is not my favorite by any means but it’s miles better than 25 in every aspect of gameplay, and I mean literally every aspect.
Won’t be the best decision when them Zens come back😂
@@8ballP I’m ngl, I’d rather play against Zens once every 50 or so games than play a game where almost every aspect of gameplay has built in rng and takes control away from the player and invalidates the build/investment I made. Where every other possession is devoid of basketball logic, skill and fun. That’s 2k25 in a nutshell.
@@8ballP I’ll take it tbh 😂😂😂 it’s not like 25 did a good job at stopping that if anything they hurt the community more trying to stop a minority of cheaters
@@damedashn2139 yup couldn’t say it any better myself
Threes are WAY more consistent than mid ranges in this game....
And as a 3 point shooter I’m here to tell that shit is hella inconsistent. I’m done after this year
Great video Badge! And those clips in the background had me crying 😂 because like 70% has happened to me! This game is crazy and I am an insane person to keep loading it up. Addict behavior but I have no other NbA game bs for real!
The biggest finesse in 2k is Gatorade. If you don’t buy it then your player will play like trash especially for bigman. Then it cost 10,500 Vc for 10 games and by the end of the 10 games all you have is the same 10,500 to just keep re buying them
Yall said the same shit each year im not going to buy it and here we are lmao
anyone else have a 99 OBoard and get no rebounds , get consistent horrible box outs
Me. 99 Offensive rebound will have more of a chance than 99 defensive rebound. Try to max +1 box out beast.
so you have no strength
I got 97 and I get em idk
@@chadwellington2524 I have 96 strength it’s just the algorithm based gaming , I’ll get 10-11 rebounds one game then next game I can’t get a single board
@@Newyorkdrillpage part of this bullshit could be solved if they would quit being retarded, and just combine both rebounding stats into 1 attribute. There's literally no reason in the universe for why my player can jump to the rafters for a board on one end of the court, but then can't get 2 inches off the ground for a board on the other end. Dumb as shit, and lazy on their part. They don't want to do the work to balance builds better, so they split rebounding to make bigs spend crazy attribute points if they want to be able to rebound on both ends.
I agree I hate this game…MyGM disappointed me, Franchise pissed me off too…put position coaches back, allow importing draft class in MyGM, make MyGM better…I can do this myself if they need a content creator
Preaching BADGE. Im not sure what 2k be on fr fr
Why , when i green a shot it bounces off the rim a few times them goes in ? like a green is supposed to be swish
Trying to make the game too realistic
It’s pointless
BLACK BALL 2k its tht simple i learned from 24, problem with the 2k community is they think “oh maybe next year it will be better” hahaha smh
They even took out the 25,000 vc you would get after you finish a season and play the Fiba USA cup
Wow
you sure? you only get that 25k when its time for the fiba tournament, not the fiba exhibitions.
@chingo6609 whatever the USA off season tournament when you pick 3 players to be on your USA team
@@NARUTOSFather2808 yeah, in the exhibitions you choose the players you want, then after 2-3 seasons you’ll get the tournament and have everyone you’ve selected the last times. Then after winning that FIBA tourney you get the 25k
My personal issues
-(huge one) can be playing defense and a pass will make you sag off
-can be playing well then random things happen to make you lose
-inconsistent meter especially when rhythm getting the red
- players with 75-80 3pt rating shooting better than 90+ percentage wise
I stopped playing 2k after i think 19. Then tried again on 23 and didn't like it. Heard this was good and bought 3 weeks after release. Finally found a good shot and then they patched it. So now with a 94 3pt i have like q 30% make percentage and i have great reflexes. This game is ridiculous and I wish they would come out with something realistic with more gamerime movements so people can enjoy it better!!!
Appreciate you! Something not one talks about is how still to the day 2k keep only paying for the worst internet servers out of all the big games players play... to the day... they're servers have been shit for weeks again smh🤦♂️
Man shooting is so bad,free throw shooting stat is useless my homie intentionally gave himself a 25 free throw and istg he shooting 60% from the free throw line😒🤦🏿♂️, I have a 91 pass accuracy and istg I can’t even make a pass to a teammate one pass away from me bc the animations are soooo bad,I cant hit a damn skill dunk to save my life,posterizer animations are virtually useless and never trigger,I have a 93 middy but my shot changes with every other shot I take,the game full of mfs using zens,the rewards are for children who tf wants a jimmy butler emo hairstyle as a damn reward???? There’s so much more wrong with this game but I’d be typing forever to say it all🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️ this is the worst 2k ever and damn near the worst game of the year💯💯💯
Real shit that free throw shit is real . My first build I went 89 free throw with the kd form niggas know that shit easy I deadass be missing 90% free throws HOWEVER my 3&d got like a 65 free throw wit the DEFAULT free Throw and I make more with the 65 den the 89 … game is broke fr
@ fr stats DO NOT MATTER AT ALL🤦🏿♂️
You just suck and can't admit you throw bad passed and can't shoot shut the f up and adjust you 12 year old bish we can run that fade where u at
2k18 and 2k21 next gen definitely worse lmao people are overreacting, it’s bad but not the worst ever.
This shit is that bad
I’ve held the same opinion with 18 and 21 as the undisputed worst and second worst ever, but 25 is battling for that title now. I think it’s worse than 18 from a strictly gameplay perspective. If 18 is the MJ of Trash, then 25 is the Lebron of Trash. It’s definitely debatable.
Sim nation ruined the game.
Yk it’s bad when badge plug had to make a 30 min video explaining why it’s not enjoyable
Deleted this dogshit like two months ago and life has been much better. Not worth my time when the outcome isnt even in my control because of RNG
I must say I’m having a lot of fun season 3. I’ve lost 2 of my last 30 games this season. That being said the rng is still absimal and not only did I lose a game bc of it I probably won 1 or 2 bc it happened to other team.
If you shoot bad 3-4 games in a row it’s not rng your bad but for some of us it sucks shooting lights out 4-5 games straight to have a shitty game game 6 then 2 more goods followed by a terrible one and mediocre one. To finally be able to stabilize after that and streak again
I kinda like it. In a bad month Steph has out of 15 games 7 bad ones (often 2-3 in a row), 3 mediocre and 5 good ones. That's 3pt shooting in a nutshell it loses you games you should win and wins you games you should lose but overall it's the second best shot in the game.
@@sapthan13it’s unrealistic in terms of a video game. Nobody wants to get on after work or school and play a game and waste time because the game wants to make you lose. It sucks.
@@Kev_Kashthe game doesn't want you to lose it just doesn't care. It is simply normal variance. It still has video game like make percentages and generally supports a "homerun mentality" on offense and defense which already takes away from other aspects of the game of basketball.
people will buy the same game for 5 or 6 years straight and still complain about it like dude it's basketball either buy the game or don't, speaking like this is the first time 2K has let its community down.
Let us not buy 2k26 yall
At the end of the day it’s a video game. Comes out every couple months get it or don’t, life goes on.
It's not just NBA 2K25. It's like that with ALL sports games that have numbers on its title.
i’m having a blast, only ones who don’t like the game are the ones who don’t touch grass or play other games. these games are made for people who get on to play for a couple hours not people dedicating they whole life to, if you play the game for 24 hours a day, your going to run into more errors than any other people.
Regardless defending a broken product because you play it less is very stupid, the issue is the product is broken not play time of the broken product. This is like me saying it’s cool for McDonalds to poison you because I barely eat there… wtf are you talking about
There needs to be a reward for the time investment of learning and actually getting good at the game. AKA a skill gap. That is the same with any video game. I'm not going to hop on call of duty (I don't play that game) and expect to win consistently or just automatically be good at the game, because I know I don't play it. So I'm not going in with the expectation of RNG kicking in and predetermining the outcome of matches for me so that I can feel like I'm actually a skilled player when I'm not.
I thought the whole point of video games, especially in the sports genre which by definition should be COMPETITIVE, is that in order to win consistently and become skilled at the game you have to put time into learning and practicing... There's no point in playing a game that you're literally just as likely to lose to someone who can only invest 2-3 hours a week into playing as you are to someone who spends A LOT of time on the game. It's a lose-lose for everyone and takes the fun out of playing. When you take out the competitive aspect and replace it with this much RNG the product is no longer enjoyable, I'd argue for players of all skill level. Nobody wants this.
Can't directly respond to the last comment because my mobile app is broken, but for what you're saying skill based matchmaking in park and my team would need to be a must and non avoidable because other wise ur driving casual players out of the game by matching them with no lifers or content creators that live off the game. A ranked mode would be a good idea but I don't know if basically forcing someone to play ranked just to get better matched opponents skill wise instead of being able to casually play park without sweating ur ahh of since ur getting matched with said no lifers
The missed open layups is why I don’t use real player %. I’ve realized they make you miss so many open lays
Pay to play, you buy the game then have to either play no stop to get your player to a decent overall which nobody has time for, or pay more money to have fun with your player.
There are also nba players in the game you can't replicate. The attribute restrictions are ridiculous. Player is always going to be lacking something major
The worst thing about this game is that it rewards bad players especially big man who have no iq and take bad shots and let real player percentage time it for them every time. It’s so frustrating player center playing perfect defence just for bigs to chuck terrible shots and guards to just keep constantly finishing on me with my 99 block and handing out bailed fouls every time for terrible shots.
Ngl the gaming community as a whole is dying. Fh5 sucks 2k25 sucks, wwe sux. They ruin these games when they add in these stupid mechanics and controls.
