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.

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.

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.

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.

[@derekmaldonado4672]

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.

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 :/

[@LinkWarrior85]

[@Alexander_Grant]

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 someone f2p that's played since November 2023, I do want to mention a few things: Problem # 1 and # 2 (Pbuffs/Chars): All the characters up to big joe are now f2p accessible which makes it alot easier to build pbuffs not even including characters from events. I completed my C pbuffs by late December and that was prior to big joe being free. My biggest problem is that it locks all the chars in a position to almost be played the exact same way. I wish they allowed you to set a pbuff preset for each character. Problem # 3 (Cards): In my experience, I haven't had too much of an issue with acquriing cards especially with the 9 gold card tickets you can get daily. It is a p2w advantage though as I don't think a f2p player would ever have full plat of great cards unless they never build any other characters.

As a completely free player I love this game since intensive characters like the new one as of know as I’m typing this is Pedro well, I do agree that some new characters are overpowered the older characters go MASSIVE boosts like Joey p5 like if you’re losing by two to three points it’s pretty much a guaranteed shot if you don’t get blocked and Fred which is a hot streak hunter and basically you almost can’t miss if you get three points in a row both are characters you can get in the first two lvls and Lee is overpowered all together so don’t get me started

Joycity always making pay to win games. Their PC only Freestyle 2 Street Basketball is on it's last breath playerbase wise due to Joycity's greed (only caring about adding more characters with overpowered and broken animations and better transformation buffs that are forced into gacha and cost $300 to guarantee you get them).

Eh, I will say what you’re saying as far mechanics with characters and just how the game is, you’re not wrong. Spoke facts but does that make it the worst game of all time? Not at all. I’m SS ranked and I haven’t spent a dime on the game ever, there’s comp in SS. But for sure at a certain point you not finna be able to advance without investing in these characters, p-buffs, all that. Some moves be damn near unblocksble especially against og characters.

yeah the title was a little bit of clickbait but some people agreed lmao so it kinda worked out

[@blackboisavage4316]

When i first played this game not gonna lie i wanted to grind this game without spending money but heres the thing the only way to get the buffs i need i had to get the players for the buffs and i mad a rule the only way i could spend money is just to buy a character and not spend money for the build and have to grind from scratch 😂😂 and the build plus i lve hit double s in ranked ive tried going for triple s and the only way u can hit it in my opinion is by having a good squad

you almost have to spend money to get good bro it’s just sad

@LinkWarrior85 and ima tell u the only way I got a character was me just spending money for the character and not spending money on the build

[@Afrominican1]

My genuine question is; why even play the game? It doesn't look anywhere near fun enough to justify any of the cons and it clearly doesn't respect the player. There's no explanation outside sunk cost fallacy. It's so confusing.

I still play and I still wallet but the thing is though you may enjoy the game, you really have to break your bank to keep up. Especially with this new broken mid range meta. The game is broken beyond repair because if they were to try to go back to the old days they would get sued because people have paid so much money for things if they removed it. If they were to remove quick point they would 100% get sued. And the crazy part is the game has so many things that benefit free to play players but since there’s such a high advantage for paid items it completely negates it. The community is toxic asf, I literally had to turn off my messaging because mfs take the game to seriously. I’ve spent over the past 7 8 years around 10k+ and I didn’t noticed until I really sat and thought about it because spending 50 dollars here and 90 there doesn’t seem like a big deal until you notice that shit adds up

That's really sad but all games will eventually become Pay To Win because game developers are greedy. If there are wallets that individually put over 30k into the game, there's really no excuse for these unstable servers that can barely hold 100 players.
